550 Graphic Objects 101
 If the Selection task pane is not open, you can use the Bring to Front and Send to Back command buttons on the Format tab on the Chart Tools, Drawing Tools, or Picture Tools contextual tabs to move them to new layers:
✦ Choose the Bring to Front option from the Bring Forward drop-down menu to bring the selected graphic object to the top of the stack.
✦ Choose the Send to Back option from the Send Backward drop-down menu to send the object to the bottom of the stack.
✦ Click the Bring Forward button to bring the selected object up to the next higher layer.
✦ Click the Send Backward button to send the selected object down to the next layer.
Figure 2-3 illustrates how easy it is to move a graphic object to a different level in the Selection task pane. For this figure, I clicked Isosceles Triangle 4 in the list and then clicked the Send Backward button three times. I then clicked 5-Point Star 3 in the list and clicked the Send Backward button twice. Finally, I clicked the Right Arrow 2 in the list and clicked Send Backward just once to move under the Chart 1 layer now at the top of the list, just as they appear in the figure.
   Figure 2-3:
Worksheet after moving the triangle, star, and arrow graphic shapes backward. Nothing obscures the embedded chart.
