### Working with layers ###
Component position is specified not only in X and Y axis, but also in Z axis, allowing us to control which components will be displayed on top of other components. Unlike Corel or Photoshop, Z-order of components in DIYLC is not completely free-form. Based on their nature, components are categorized into 5 "layers": Chassis, Board, Trace, Component, Text. All components in the "Board" layer will be assigned with lower Z-order than components in the "Trace" level, all components in the "Component" level will be put on top of components from "Trace" level, etc. 'Send to Back' and 'Bring to Front' operations typically operate within the given layer, but it is possible to force the component to move across other layers. DIYLC will prompt you to confirm this operation when selected component reaches the bounds of its layer.
