# allCutLayers

*Command · GUI Control · Arma 3 v1.58*

## Description

Returns all named layers used by [cutRsc](../commands/cutRsc.md), [cutText](../commands/cutText.md), [cutObj](../commands/cutObj.md) or [cutFadeOut](../commands/cutFadeOut.md).
The layer normally would be added on the first use of any of the aforementioned commands, however if a layer needs to be reserved it could be done like so:

```sqf
private _layerNum = "TAG_myLayerName" cutFadeOut 0;
```

## Syntax

```sqf
allCutLayers
```

**Returns:** [Array](../topics/Array.md) of [String](../topics/String.md)s - The index of the layer name in the array corresponds to the layer number the cut effect will be displayed on. If no layers were defined, the return is `[""]`, because layer 0 is reserved for usage in cut commands without layer param or when the provided layer name is empty `""`.

## Examples

### Example 1

```sqf
private _allLayers = allCutLayers;
```
