Unlike the individual eyes in front of each AP element name, the overall eye
toggles between open and shut.
You can also change an AP element??™s name (in the second column of the AP Elements panel). Just doubleclick
the current AP element name in the inspector; the name is highlighted. Type in the new name and
press Enter (Return) to complete the change.
You can alter the z-index (stacking order) in the third column in the same manner. Double-click the z-index

values previously set for the z-index through the Property inspector. Use A for above and B for below.
