"Stacking order" for a collection of Line Segments


Basically I need to make the analog of a knot diagram with line segments, so I was wondering if there was away to specify which segments of lie on top of which other ones and vice versa. For example if I have an orange line segment on top of a blue line segment, I would like the point where those two segments intersect to be orange to specify that the orange segment is on top. In Adobe Illustrator you can arrange objects in layers, so I'd just send the blue segment to a layer behind the orange segment. Is there a similar thing in Cinderella? Only way I have managed so far is just fiddling which segment thickness which is a pain.

nbenbern,

Cinderella 2.1 will offer layers as in Illustrator. You may check out the beta version for a preview of the functionality.
