# up.Layer.prototype.isClosed()

**This feature has been deprecated**. Use `!up.Layer#isAlive()` instead.

Load [`unpoly-migrate.js`](https://unpoly.com/changes/upgrading.md) to polyfill deprecated features.

Returns whether this layer is no longer part of the [layer stack](https://unpoly.com/api/up.layer.stack.md).

A layer is considered "closed" immediately after it has been [dismissed](https://unpoly.com/api/up.Layer.prototype.dismiss.md) or [accepted](https://unpoly.com/api/up.Layer.prototype.accept.md). If the closing is animated, a layer may be considered "closed" while the closing animation is still playing.
