Moving objects forward or backward on a layout Show
When objects overlap on a layout, one object is on top of the other. You can change this stacking order to create different effects. As you create objects, they stack one on top of the last, even if they aren't overlapping, so that the last object created is always on top.
Note Objects located in tab controls, slide controls, popovers, or portals maintain a stacking order within the tab control, slide control, or portal. For example, if you select an object on a tab control and click Send to back , the object moves behind all the other objects on the tab control, not behind all objects on the layout.Adobe Captivate lets you add multiple objects, such as captions, highlight boxes, animations, or images to slides. You specify the order in which objects appear. Use the Timeline to precisely adjust the timing of all objects on a slide.
Change stacking orderWhen you create objects that overlap each other, you can control their stacking order by using the Arrange command.

Align and distribute objectsUse the Align and Distribute commands to line up or evenly space selected objects within a title in the Monitor panel. You can align or distribute objects (text boxes, shapes, or both) along the vertical or horizontal axis. When you choose horizontal alignment, the selected objects align along the edge of the object’s horizontal axis closest to the edge you choose. When you choose vertical alignment, the selected objects align along the edge of the object’s vertical axis closest to the edge you choose. When you align and distribute selected objects, keep the following in mind:
