# Blend and Rearrange Layers
**Rearrange layers by dragging and dropping them in the Layers panel. The layers at the top of the list will be displayed in the foreground of the map.**\
\
\
**Blend layers by selecting an option from the dropdown at the bottom of the Layers panel.**\
\
\
\
**There are three different ways to blend layers: Normal, Additive, and Subtractive.**\
## Normal Blending
Normal layer blending does not alter the color values of overlapping data points. 
## Additive Blending
Additive blending adds the color values for overlapping data points. It makes layers, and particularly areas of high density, easier to visualize on a dark-colored map. 
## Subtractive Blending
Subtractive layer blending does not alter the color values of overlapping data points.
