# Show or hide a layer

In the Layers palette, the eye icon in the leftmost column next to a layer means that the layer is visible.

1. In the Editor, choose Window > Layers if the Layers palette is not already open.
2. Do one of the following:

   - To hide a layer, click its eye icon. Click in the eye column again to show the layer.

   - Drag through the eye column to show or hide more than one layer.

   - To display just one layer, Alt-click the eye icon for that layer. Alt-click in the eye column again to show all the layers.
