This article will help you understand how to set condition for a Clipart Layer.

BUTTON OVERVIEW

In the Advanced Options section, specifically for Clipart/Text/Mask you will have the button called Set Conditions For This Layer.

To set a condition:
Choose the Layer you want to add condition then open Layers Options > Advance Options

Then, on the pop-up CONDITIONS window:
Select to Show or Hide for the layer in step 1.
Select which layer that decides to Show/ Hide the layer you are setting conditions for.

When you're done, click the Apply button.

The button "Set Conditions For This Layer" is mostly used for Cliparts. It'll be needed when you want to show or hide a layers in some specific cases.
For example: We have a design using the Cat Clipart with two breeds: Long Hair Cat and Sphynx Cat. The costumes will differ in size depending on their breed. By setting conditions for each kind of Costume clipart to appear, your customers can avoid the glitch like the example below.

Furthermore, if you do not set condition for the Costume layer, and instead insert the hold Cat Costume category, your customer will have the customization experience as shown below, which is quite confusing and difficult for them to execute.


In some more complicated clipart, to help your customer's personalizing experience become easier, more convenient, and less confusing, learning how to set condition for clipart layers will address the problem.

Assume you're defining a product and want to include the following two conditions in your clipart:
