Find a hidden object

Objects automatically stack in separate layers as you add them. Sometimes the top object covers all of the objects beneath it and hides the object. When you see all the layers in a document, you can find the hidden objects.

  1. On the View menu, click Publishing Layout.

  2. On the Home tab, under Arrange, click Reorder.

    Publishing Layout View, Home tab, Arrange group

    If Reorder is not available

  3. Drag the layer with the hidden object forward, and then click OK.
