Hi ! Im really a beginner regarding Ai and have no idea why im stuck at this point.

I created a puppet for character animator using several layers of an existing adobe puppet.

The mouth layer, for example, was copies fully into my puppet. Now... when Im trying to "create a new layer" on my mouth layer, the option is "off". I cannot press it.
can some one maybe suggest why ? and how to fix that ?

    Target that +Mouth (click on the circle)

    Then check the top left in the control panel.

    This might be a group.

    I have one more question about that - to make use of the picture already being uploaded.

    As u can see, the body layer is under the head layer. but, what if I want to put his hands on his face ?

    Right now, they go from behind his head.

    Is there a way to put his hands ON his face yet still the body will be behind his head ?

    ty
