Changing layer of pen

So in the project I'm working on there are 2 sprites. One is the pen sprite the other is the object sprite. Something the pen sprite won't do is draw in front of the object sprite. Iv tried changing their layer using the

go to front 

block but that doesn't seem to work.

You can’t change the layer the pen is on
It’s always on the same layer as the background

Ikr…

You can try making what the pen draws into a sprite and then layering that
You could also use clones, size changes, and color effects to replicate the pens functionality

Sorry. This happened to me too when I first tried to use it.

You could try using the stamp feature

You cant, but you can use broadcast and sprite layers to stamp all sprites after 1st layer pen is drawn and then draw the 2nd layer.

Sprites in the front layer receive Broadcasts first, and ones in the back layer update last.
