Dragging objects from one layer to another
•
To select all objects on a specific layer, hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac
OS) as you click a layer in the
Layers panel.
•
To move or copy objects to another layer, use the Selection tool to select one or more objects on a document
page or master. In the Layers panel, drag the colored dot on the right side of the layer list to move the selected
objects to the other layer.
Moving an object to a new layer
To move selected objects to a locked layer, hold down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) as you drag the colored
dot. To copy selected objects to another layer, hold down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) as you drag the colored
dot on the right side of the layer list to the other layer. To copy selected objects to a locked layer, hold down Ctrl+Alt
(Windows) or Command+Option (Mac OS) as you drag the colored dot.
Paste objects into different layers
The Paste Remembers Layers command affects how objects pasted from other locations interact with existing layers.
If the Paste Remembers Layers command is selected, objects cut or copied from different layers retain their layer
assignments when pasted to the new page or position. If you paste objects to a document that doesn’t have the same
layers as the document from which they were copied, InDesign adds the objects’ layer names to the Layers panel in the
second document, and pastes each object on its layer.
If the Paste Remembers Layers command is deselected, objects cut or copied from different layers are pasted together
on the target layer.
1 Make sure that Paste Remembers Layers is deselected in the Layers panel menu.
