Reply To: the order in layer is relative to the sorting layer?

[Jose Miguel Hernandez]

Thanks Jonathan
i don’t know if this was also changed on 2017, but i just found that there is an implicit order in the layers. 

I was having trouble trying to show an object in the default layer until i reorder it(i had it inverted, default first)
It seems the lowest layer(Default) has render priority over the previous layer(Background).
So in this case no matter  what value i put in the “order in layer” i could not make an object in background render before an object in Default. 

But i didn’t know how to change that relationship until i found this. it seems it can only be changed while adding layers. They can be reordered in this tab.
