 Then do the drawing by left clicking on the scene for each vertex of the polygon - control z to undo and control y to redo.

 If an active layer was set, the drawing will draw to the active layer.

 To set a layer to be active, right click on the layer name and select Active.

 Otherwise, you will be prompted to add your created drawing to a new layer. Click Yes.

The layer is then created and the drawing will reside inside that layer.

 You can set the drawing colours, transparencies and other settings inside the Properties for that layer.

 Right click on the layer where all of these items can be set.

 You can also style specific elements differently even if they are on the same layer. (Ensure Style From Layer is not checked on when doing this.)

 The settings for this are in the Draw tab of the ribbon. Select the element/s using one of the selection tools. Then choose your Colour. Click on Apply to selected. Remove the selection, and you will now see the element/s styled black.
