10.9.  Select Next Layer

"Select Next Layer" causes the next layer down in the layer list to become the active layer for the image, as highlighted in the Layers dialog. If the active layer is at the bottom of the list, this menu entry will be insensitive.

[Note] Note

Note that on a standard Windows-style English keyboard, the default shortcut Page_Down refers not to the keys on the number pad, but to the other "Page_Down" key in a group of six keys to the left of the number-pad.

10.9.1.  Activate Dialog

  • This command can be accessed from an image menu-bar as Layer->Stack->Select Next Layer,

  • or by using the keyboard shortcut Page_Down

  • or the Down arrow-key,

  • or more simply by clicking on layer name in Layer Dialog.
