Change the stacking order of slices
When slices overlap, the last slice you create is the top slice in the stacking order. You can change the stacking order
to gain access to underlying slices. You can specify which slice is on the top and bottom of the stack and move slices
up or down in the stacking order.
Note:
You cannot arrange the stacking order of auto slices.

You can align user slices along an edge or their centers, and distribute user slices evenly along the vertical or

To align or distribute layer-based slices, align or distribute the contents of the layers.

Delete a slice
When you delete a user slice or layer-based slice, auto slices are regenerated to fill the document area.
Deleting a layer-based slice does not delete the associated layer; however, deleting the layer associated with a layer-
based slice does delete the layer-based slice.
