Current Layer

A pencil icon on the right of the layer name indicates that this layer is the current layer. This means that if you create a new object, it will be placed at the top of this layer.

When you create a new document, there is only one layer, which is the current layer. When you have several layers, you can make one of them the current layer by clicking in the square on the right.

Note: Making a layer current doesn't select it, and that you can still select and edit objects in layers which are not the current layer.

Selected Layer

A blue square next to the layer indicates that this layer (and all of the objects it contains, or at least one of its objects) is selected.
