Pasting objects in front or in back of other objectsThe Paste in Front and Paste in Back commands let you paste copies of objects directly on top of and behind the objects you select. This is useful if you want to move the copy a specified distance from the original location. These commands also let you paste the artwork into the same position in a new file as it was in the old file, relative to the page origin. To move an object in front or in back of other objects in the stacking order:
The cut object is pasted into position. If no object was selected in step 3, the object is pasted on top of or in back of the stack. If you paste more than one object, all pasted objects appear in front or in back of the selected artwork. However, the relative painting order among the individual pasted objects remains the same. If you are working with multiple layers in the file that you defined with the Layers palette, the layers may affect how objects are pasted. (See Changing the stacking order of artwork using the Layers palette.) |
