How can you create a new layer in Illustrator?

Creating a new layer in Adobe Illustrator can be accomplished efficiently by clicking the New Layer button in the Layers panel. This action directly opens a fresh layer on which users can work, allowing them greater organization and control over their artwork. The Layers panel is an integral part of Illustrator's interface, designed specifically for managing layers, making it the most straightforward method for layer creation.

While there are other methods to create layers, such as using keyboard shortcuts or duplicating an existing layer, the New Layer button provides an immediate visual and interactive option. It offers an intuitive way for users to seamlessly add new layers as they work on their designs.
