In the list of layers, the panel shows a thumbnail, a title, and one or more icons that give information about each layer:
The layer is visible. Click the eye to show or hide a layer. When the layer is hidden, the icon is . Hidden layers are not printed.

The image contains layer groups and was imported from Adobe Photoshop . Photoshop Elements doesn’t support layer groups and displays
them in their collapsed state. You must simplify them to create an editable image.
You use the buttons in the panel to perform actions:
Create a new layer.
Create a new fill or adjustment layer.
Delete a layer.
Lock transparent pixels.
Also at the top are the panel Blending Mode menu (Normal, Dissolve, Darken, and so on), an Opacity text box, and a More button displaying a
menu of layer commands and panel options.
Adding layers
Newly added layers appear above the selected layer in the Layers panel. You can add layers to an image by using any of the following methods:
Create new, blank layers or turn selections into layers.
Convert a background into a regular layer or vice versa.
Paste selections into the image.
Use the Type tool or a shape tool.
Duplicate an existing layer.
You can create up to 8000 layers in an image, each with its own blending mode and opacity. However, memory constraints
may lower this limit.
