Now you can see all the objects on that layer, and you can select objects by clicking on them in the Object Manager.

If you want to expand a layer or group, click the Plus sign to expand the layer.If you need to hide a layer, click the Eye icon next to the layer to hide it.Now that our cards are complete and ready to print, I just want to show you some other features in the Object Manager.
Additional Features of the Object Manager You can review your cards by clicking each page to make sure they are set with the correct names and phone numbers. On page 3, edit the name to be “ Anne Parks” and the phone to end in “ 3”.
Repeat the same process for the phone number text and change the last digit to “ 2”. Go to page 2, select the name text in the document and click the Edit Text button in the property bar. You can rename the layers on pages 2 and 3 by selecting the layer, right-clicking and choosing Rename. Repeat the same process to copy the Phone layer from page 1 and paste it on page 2 and 3. Select layer 1 on page 3, right-click and Paste again. Then select layer 1 on page 2, right-click and choose Paste. Right-click on the Name layer and choose Copy. You will know that layer is selected because it will be red in the Object Manager. Now we will copy layers from page 1 onto pages 2 and 3. Click on page 2 and 3 that were previously blank, and you can see they are now populated with the company information objects. Now, we can drag the company information objects from the document onto the master layer. To add a master layer, click the New Master Layer button in the Object Manager. Thus, in our business card we need the company information to show up on all 3 cards. The master layer contains objects you want to appear on ALL pages in your document. Since we need to make business cards for 3 different employees, using a Master Layer for the company information will work best. Next select the phone number and drag it to the Phone layer. Select the name text object “ Joe Smith” and drag it on to the Name layer inside the Object Manager. Now we can drag objects to those new layers. Then go to the bottom of the Object Manager and click the New Layer button.Ĭhange the name of the first layer to “ Name”. Select the art and clickthe Ungroup icon on the tool bar. But first we need to ungroup our main art on page 1. Now we are going to create some layers and rename them.
We will create a 3-page business card document and design multiple cards while using the features of the Object Manager to work with different layers. This tutorial will show you the basics of working with layers in CorelDRAW.
