# Setting the Layer Order in the Layers Panel (Studio and JMap NG)

The order of layers and layer groups in the **Layers** panel in Studio and JMap NG is intended to improve the user experience, especially for projects with a large number of layers.

**To reorder layers and layer groups in the panel:**

1. Hover over the layer or group to move until the drag icon <img src="/files/GR4EyGIl9vTZcyttE4kW" alt="" data-size="line"> appears.
2. Click <img src="/files/GR4EyGIl9vTZcyttE4kW" alt="" data-size="line"> then drag the layer or group to the desired position and drop it.

The map remains unchanged, but the **Layers** panel reflects the new order.
