Gimp.Image.get_layers

### Method

# Gimp Imageget_layers

#### Declaration [src]

    GimpLayer**
    gimp_image_get_layers (
      GimpImage* image
    )

#### Description [src]

Returns the list of root layers contained in the specified image.

This procedure returns the list of root layers contained in the specified image. The order of layers is from topmost to bottommost. Note that this is not the full list of layers, but only the root layers, i.e. layers with no parents themselves. If you need all layers, it is up to you to verify that any of these layers is a group layer with `gimp_item_is_group()` and to obtain its children with `gimp_item_get_children()` (possibly recursively checking if these have children too).

#### Return value

Type: An array of `None`

         The list of layers contained in the image.
         The returned value must be freed with g_free().

The array is `NULL`-terminated.
The caller of the method takes ownership of the returned data container, but not the data inside it.
