Okay, this is how you do them.

You set up a screen elsewhere in the quest file, it doesn't matter if it's on a different map.

Then, you draw what you want to be layered onto the first screen. If you want to use six layers on a screen, you'll have to make six separate layer screens for them.

Okay, so you draw what you want to be layered, and you make everything else on the screen the transparent color, so they don't show up on the layer.
Next, write down the screen position and map position of your layer, or just remeber it. Go back to the base screen (Which is Layer 0 and the screen Link will actually be on.) and go to layers. Enter the map number and screen number under the layer of your choice, and click the transparent box if you want to. For layers above Link's head, use 3-6, for layers that are at link's level, use 1 and 2, and for layers that flying enemies fly under, use 5 and 6.

For more information, check the help file.

That site is more in-depth on layers than the ZQuest help file. Use it. :)
