                          Recap



                        Layers are transparent sheets which are stacked on top of each other so that individual objects of an
                      image can be edited without affecting other objects.
                       Layers tab is used to move the Layers palette around the GIMP window.
                       Eye icon is a toggle button that hides the image on the layer as well as the eye icon.
                       Lower this layer button moves the selected layer one step down in the stack.
                       Delete this layer button deletes the selected layer.
                       Hiding a layer means to make the layer temporarily invisible.
                       Filters are tools which are used to modify an image in a variety of ways.
