or by using the keyboard shortcut <span><b class="keycap">Page_Up</b></span>

or more simply by clicking on layer name in Layer Dialog.

"Select Previous Layer" causes the next layer down in the layer
list to become the active layer for the image, as highlighted in
the Layers dialog. If the active layer is at the bottom of the
list, this menu entry will be insensitive. Note that on a
standard Windows-style
English keyboard, the default shortcut <span><b class="keycap">Page_Up</b></span>
refers not to the keys on the number pad, but to the other "Page_Up"
key in a group of six keys to the left of the numberpad.

The keyboard shortcuts for "Select Previous Layer" and "Select
Next Layer" may be very useful if you find yourself often
picking colors from one layer to use for painting on another
layer, especially in conjunction with the feature that makes
most paint tools switch to color-picking mode if the
<span><b class="keycap">Ctrl</b></span> key is held down.
