# Moving an Element Forward or Backward (Layering Elements)

When elements overlap you can change the order of elements in the stack.

To move an element in front of or behind another element:
1. Select the element you want to move.
2. To move an element a layer at a time, choose Arrange->Bring Forward or Arrange->Send Backward.
3. To move an element to the very front or very back, choose Arrange->"Bring to Front" or Arrange->"Send to Back."

Note: If you're unable to select an element, it may be on the master page. For more information about working with master page elements, see Moving an Element to the Master Page.
