   <p>It is easier to think of layers in terms of images painted on glass. With several pieces of glass 
stacked on top of each other, each of these pieces of glass is a layer. If the top piece of glass is 
completely painted over, none of the pieces of glass underneath will be visible. If, on the other hand, you 
only paint over a portion of a piece of glass, you will be able to see what is underneath the non-painted 
parts.</p>

paint is thin enough, it can be seen through. Visually, an opacity of 100% means you cannot see the clips 
below that layer or clip, and an opacity of of 50% means you can partly see them.</p>

changes their relative loudness.</p>
