Grease Pencil Layers panel.

Grease Pencil objects can be organized into a tree known as the layer tree for grouping and arranging strokes.

Any stroke can only belong to a single 2D layer. The selected layer is the active layer. Only one layer or group can be active at a time. When you draw, the new strokes are added to the active layer. By default the view order of the layers in the viewport is top to bottom.

Layers can be grouped using Layer Groups. A layer can only be in one group at a time. Layers can be moved into groups using drag-and-drop. Groups can be color coded with a color tag.

Every layer correspond to a channel in the Dope Sheet editor (in Grease Pencil mode). See Dope Sheet for more information.

Layers can also be used together with Modifiers to only affects part of your drawing. See Modifiers for more information.

Layers can mask other layers by enabling Use Mask (mask icon) or using the checkbox in the Masks panel header. See Masks for more information.

Layers used as masks can use all the blend modes and different opacity values like any other layer.

Савет

If you want to make a full transparent masking you will have to set the mask layer’s opacity to 0.
