In Layer Options, which control determines a layer's visibility in the document?

• A. Show
• B. Lock
• C. Dim
• D. Preview

Answer: (A)

Controlling whether a layer’s contents appear in the document is handled by the Show option in Layer Options. This switch directly determines visibility: with Show on, the layer’s artwork is visible and participates in the document view and rendering; with Show off, the layer is hidden from the artboard while still existing in the file, so you can reveal it again later. The other controls serve different purposes—Lock stops edits, Dim reduces emphasis on the layer’s contents without hiding them, and Preview isn’t used to toggle a single layer’s visibility.
