When you create a new bitmap object, it is added to the current layer. In the Layers panel with layers expanded, you
can see a thumbnail and name for each bitmap object under the layer on which it resides. Although some bitmap
applications consider each bitmap object a layer, Fireworks organizes bitmap objects, vector objects, and text as
separate objects that reside on layers. For more information, see “Working with layers” on page 159.
