Working with layers
To create a layer in XML, use the
LAYER element. For example:
<LAYER KEEPRUNAROUND="true" LOCKED="false"
SUPPRESS="false" VISIBLE="true">
<ID NAME="Layer 1" />
</LAYER>
The RGBCOLOR element defines the layer's color as displayed in the
Layers palette.
Assigning items to layers
You can assign items to a layer using the GEOMETRY element, which is a child of the BOX and
TABLE elements. For example:
BOX BOXTYPE="CT_TEXT" COLOR="White">
<ID NAME="Main Layer" />
<GEOMETRY LAYER="Default"
PAGE="1" SHAPE="SH_RECT">
<POSITION>
<TOP>90</TOP>
<LEFT>95</LEFT>
<BOTTOM>190</BOTTOM>
<RIGHT>195</RIGHT>
</POSITION>
</GEOMETRY>
</BOX>
