Create and name a new blank layer

 Do any of the following:
  • To create a new layer with default name and settings, click the New Layer button  at the top of the Layers palette. The resulting layer uses Normal mode with 100% opacity, and is named according to its creation order. (To rename the new layer, double-click it and type a new name.)

  • To create a new layer and specify a name and options, choose Layer > New > Layer, or choose New Layer from the More menu in the Layers palette. Specify a name and other options, and then click OK.

    The new layer is automatically selected and appears in the palette above the layer that was last selected.
