Hello! So I just can’t get my layers write.I have 4 objects: background,2 button and a sprite. No problems with the buttons, but the sprite do not want to show up over background. I tried using z, but it doesn;t seem to change anything at all. Also i played with “sorting layer”, but still got nothing. I am starting to think that it might be a bug… Any tips?

Hi, layers are often a difficult concept to grasp. Have you done all the tutorials? Also, it helps if you post some sort of code example or inspector screenshot.
