In the left drawing, the red square is located in front of all the other objects. Use Send Backward to move the square back one layer so that it appears between the circle and the triangle (middle drawing). Clicking Send Backward again places the square on behind all of the other objects (right drawing). Send to Back places the square on behind the other objects.
