Timeline, with the top layer’s content at the front and the bottom layer’s content
at the back.

Notice how the bold line indicates the destination of your layer. When a layer is
placed inside a folder, the layer name is indented.

All three photo layers should be in the photos folder.
You can collapse the folder by clicking the arrow. Expand the folder by clicking the

that folder as well.
