Dynamic Layers > Manipulating layers > Selecting layers

Selecting layers

Select one or more layers to make them the same width and height, reposition them, align them, and so on. For a complete list of options, see Setting layer properties.

To select a layer, do one of the following:

	Click the name of the layer in the Layers panel.
	Click a layer's selection handle. If the handle isn't visible, click anywhere inside the layer to make it visible.
	Click a layer's border.
	If no layers are active or selected, Shift-click inside a layer.
	If multiple layers are selected, Control-Shift-click (Windows) or Command-Shift-click (Macintosh) inside a layer. This will deselect all other layers and select only the one that you chose.
	Click the layer marker in the Document window that represents the layer's location in the HTML code. If the layer marker isn't visible, choose View > Visual Aids > Invisible Elements.

To select multiple layers, do one of the following:

	Shift-click two or more layer names in the Layers panel.
	Shift-click inside or on the border of two or more layers.

When multiple layers are selected, the handles of the last selected layer are highlighted in black. The handles of the other layers are highlighted in white.
