Organize layers in a folder

You can create layer folders to organize layers and reduce Timeline clutter. The Timeline contains two layers that contain navigation objects: one for navigational buttons and another for navigational art. You'll create a layer folder, named Navigation, for both layers.

  1. In the Timeline, select the Buttons layer.
  2. Click the Insert Layer Folder button, which is below the layer names.

    Note: If the Property inspector shows properties for the frame rather than for the movie clip, click the Background movie clip on the Stage.

  3. Double-click the layer folder name and rename the folder Navigation.
  4. Drag the Navbar layer and the Buttons layer to the Navigation folder.

    The layers appear indented to indicate that they're within the folder.

You can click the expander arrow to expand and collapse the folder and included layers.
