Like below, I want to make the circle covering on top of both triangles without showing the angle. I try to put the circle as the top layer but it is not workable. What should I do now? Thank you.

    goodgoodmagic,

    A simple crude way is to give the circle a fill (white or existing background colour). Whether that is good enough depends on the possible wish to see an actual (variable) background.

    Or you may give the circle a fill and make it transparent (Transparency palette) and then use the Knockout Group in the Transparency palette,

    Jacob Bugge,

    Color fill is workable. Besides this, it is better to know the logic of overlapping. Why sometimes the object can stand behind another, but sometimes it could not, even I select <object><arrange><at the back>...Thanks.

    You are welcome, goodgood magic.

    I am unsure about the (hidden) meaning of

    Why sometimes the object can stand behind another, but sometimes it could not

    When there is no fill and no knockout/opacity masking, everything behind should be visible outside strokes.
