# photobot.Layer.delete()

## Syntax

    canvas.layers[i].delete()

## Description

Removes layer i from the canvas. Keep in mind that the index number of all the layers above will drop by one; if you delete layer 1, layer 2 then becomes layer 1 and so on.

## Example

A pretty lame example...

    photobot = ximport("photobot")
    canvas = .photobot.canvas(100,100)
    canvas.layer("robot.jpg")
    canvas.layers[1].delete()
