# target_layer_name()

Shows the layer name that the next [quick_skin](quick-skin.md) would paint. It does not paint.

Omit the argument and you get the layer selected now. If that layer cannot be chosen, the string is empty. Use it before Apply, to see which sheet the weights will land on.

### Signature
```python
skin.target_layer_name(target_layer_id=None) -> str
```

### Example
```python
print(api.skin().target_layer_name())
```
