ImageGear Professional for Windows ActiveX
Working with Containers, Dictionaries, and Layers Using the ImageGear PDF Sample

Before creating a container, you need to create one or more layers using the View -> Layers menu. Make sure to create some simple elements like text, paths, or images as well.

To create container:

  1. Right-click the PDF page and choose Create -> Container.
  2. When prompted, select all the layers you want to associate with the container's dictionary, which will affect the container's visibility.
  3. You also need to select the visibility policy and check all the elements you want to include into the new container. When container is created a new dictionary is automatically created as well.

To show or hide the container's elements use View -> Layers menu to change the layer's state to ON or OFF.

To rearrange the container's elements you can right-click to delete the existing container, which will free its elements and create the new one.
