Use the Parenting View to link layers

By linking layers you will build a hierarchy of layers, which will make it easy to animate something like a character.

What you learned: How to create a hierarchy with the Parenting View

  • Understand the structure of parent and child.

  • Adjust the interface in order to see all the layers better.

  • Create a hierarchy by dragging the child layer towards the parent layer.

  • Test if the structure works by selecting a parent layer and move it around. The hierarchy is correct when all the other layers follow.
