Layers in Inkscape allow users to organize design elements and toggle their visibility, opacity, and position. Filters can be applied to enhance images using effects like drop shadows, and the Filter Editor allows customizing filters. Logos are visual identities, and typefaces are classified as serif with extra strokes or sans-serif without them.

Identify how to use layers in Inkscape.
Layers help us organize design elements on our page.
Bring up the layers panel by clicking Layer > Layers or by pressing Ctrl + Shift + L.
To add a layer, click the + icon in the panel.
To delete a layer, select the layer you want to be erased and click on the minus sign.
To rename a layer, double-click on a layer or right-click on the layer and select Rename
Layer.
To mark a layer as active, click on the layer in the panel. To select a layer (to make it
active), simply click on the layer once in the Layers dialog.
To reorder your layers, you can press Ctrl + Shift + Page Up to raise the active layer.
To lower the active layer in the stack, press Ctrl + Shift Page Down.
To raise a layer to the topmost position, press Ctrl + Shift + Home.
To lower it to the bottom position, press Ctrl + Shift + End.
To toggle the layer visibility by clicking on the eye icon on the left side of the layer.
To toggle the layer lock, click on the padlock icon.
Opacity refers to the layer’s transparency. You can set the value from 0 (fully
transparent/invisible) to 100% (fully opaque).
Blend modes can be handy to create various effects for layers with overlapping elements.

Drop Shadow filter.
To use Drop Shadow, Click Filters > Shadows and Glows > Drop Shadow.
Inkscape allows you to fine-tune your filters through the Filter Editor, which is accessible
by clicking Filters > Filter Editor.
The panel will also show the series of algorithms and computations applied to the image
to produce the filter’s effect.
To remove a filter, simply select the object, click Filters > Remove Filters.
LESSON 9: Logos and Business Cards
Create a logo.
A logo is a visual that is used to communicate that identity.
Typefaces are grouped into two major classes.
The serif refers to the small lines found at the ends of a letter stroke. Serif typefaces have
these.
Sans-serif (which means “without serif”) do not have these.
