                        Identify the following components of the Sketchpad window and discuss their uses:

                        (a)                       (b)                        (c)                       (d)

                      As you already know, Sketchpad is a fun and easy-to-use online drawing tool where
                      you can bring your ideas to life. In your previous class, you learnt how to draw

                      shapes and add text. Now, let’s explore advanced tools like Layers, Clipart and
                      the Mirror Brush.

                      To open  Sketchpad,  simply  type  https://sketch.io/sketchpad-v5.1/ into  your  web

                      browser’s address bar and press the Enter key.

                            LAYERS

                      Layers are like clear, plastic sheets stacked one on top of the other in a drawing.

                      Each layer holds a different part of your artwork which help you keep your drawing
                      neat and organised.

                      UNDERSTANDING THE LAYERS PANEL

                                 The Layers Panel in Sketchpad helps control artwork. Layers can be dragged

                               up or down to change their order, which sets their position (z-position) in the
                               scene.

                      Each layer will show two important icons:

                                Eyeball icon: This is used to show or hide a layer. It has two modes:

                            Visible Eyeball icon: It means the layer is shown in your artwork.

                             Crossed-out Eyeball  icon: The layer is hidden  but  still  exists  and  can be

                              shown again.
                                Hamburger icon: When this  icon  is clicked,  a context  menu opens.  The

                          options available in the context menu are as follows:

                            Send to Back: Moves the layer behind others.
                            Send to Front: Moves the layer slightly in front of another.

                             Send Backwards: Moves the layer all the way to the back.
