Layers allow you to work with one element of the picture without affecting other elements.
The layers can be represented as a stack of transparencies that can be painted, and if there is no image on the film, you can see through it below lying.
You can easily change the picture, changing the order and the properties of the layers.
In addition, special features such as adjustment layers, fill layers and styles can achieve amazing results.
Selecting a layer for
If the pattern is composed of several layers, it is necessary to choose which layer we will work as actions will occur only in the active layer.
The name of the active layer (8) is shown in the header pattern (2) and in the palette (4) opposite the active layer is shown a brush (7).
Select a layer to work can be in the Layers palette (4), by clicking on the image of the desired layer (6).
Or on the picture taking tool "Move tool" (3)
- Turn on the "Auto Select Layer" (1) and click on the picture element, is automatically selected the layer at which the item is located.
- Right-click on the image will give a context menu (5), which lists the layers in which at this point is something pictured.
Create a new layer
You can create a blank layer and add something to it,
or you can create a new layer from an existing part of the image.
When you create a new layer, it appears above the selected layer (8) in the Layers palette (4).
To create a new layer with standard properties, click the button (9) "to create a new layer" ("create a new layer") in the Layers palette (4).
Display the contents of layers
You can selectively hide or show the contents of the layers. To toggle the visibility of the layer:
- In the Layers palette (5) click on the image of the eye (6), - the eye disappears, and the layer is hidden, to show the layer - click on an empty square, where he was the eye (7) - appeared eye means the layer is visible again.
- If you click on the eye while holding down [Alt], it will hide all visible layers except this one. Repeated click Restore hidden layers you first click.
Copying layers
Select the layer you want to copy.
- Press [Ctrl + J]
- Drag and drop the image layer (8) button (10) to "create a new layer" ("create a new layer") in the Layers palette (5).
- Select "Duplicate Layer" (2) in the "Layers" (1), enter the name of the layer and click OK.
- Select "Duplicate Layer" (4) in the Layers palette "Layers", enter the name of the layer and click OK. (Menu Layers palette by right-clicking on the title area of the layer (9).
- While holding down [Alt] drag and drop the image on the layer (10) "create new layer" ("create a new") in the Layers palette (5), enter the name of the layer and click OK.
Copying layers between drawings
Select the layer you want to copy.
- Drag and drop the image layer (8) of one image in the Layers palette (5) to another drawing.
- By using the tool "Move tool" (3) Drag the desired portion of the image from one picture to another.
- Select "Duplicate Layer" in the menu "Layers" menu or the Layers palette "Layers", select the document to be copied layer, enter the name of the layer and then click OK.
Adhesion layers
Coupling the two or more layers can be moved at the same time all the images located on the linked layers.
Also, you can share to copy, paste, align and transform the content of linked layers.
For coupling layers, select the layer that you want to attach another, and click on the square (3) to the left of the image of the other layer. In the square there the image of the chain (2), indicating that this layer is coupled with a work (selected) layer.
For decoupling layers click on the icon in the chain (2), two on the left of the image layer - chain disappears, which means that the layer becomes available.
Locked layers
Can be fully or partially locked layers to protect their contents. For example, you can completely lock the layer when the work on it is complete. Or lock change content, while leaving the option of moving layer.
To lock all the properties of the layer, select the layer and click on the lock (1). Appears to the right of the layer name clasp (5) shows that the layer is locked.
To selectively lock the properties of the layer, select the layer and click on the (1)
- Square - prohibits changing layer opacity
- Brush - prohibits the changing of pixels in the image drawing tools
- Arrows - prevents accidental movement of Pixley layer.
Appears to the right of the layer name, gray padlock (4) shows that some of the properties of the layer locked.
To remove the restrictions, select the layer and re-click on the icon (1).
Hint: To remove restrictions from the layer "Background" - double click on the name of this layer open the menu and click OK.
Rasterization of layers
It is impossible to use the drawing tools or filters to the layers that comprise the vector of the content (text layer circuit layer or vector mask).
But you can rasterize - convert the contents of these layers in the usual bitmap. To do this, select the layer and
- Select "Rasterize Layer" in the Layers palette "Layers".
- Select "Rasterize" in the "Layers" and select one of the sub-items.
Removing layers
Removing layers that are no longer required to work - reducing file size and therefore easier and faster to work with patterns.
Select the layer you want to delete and
- Click on the trash baskets in the Layers palette and shows, click OK.
- You can use the option "Delete Layer" in the "Layers" or in the Layers palette menu "Layers" (6).
For quick removal without confirmation
- While holding down [Alt], click on the trash icon baskets in the Layers palette.
- Drag and drop the image on the layer icon trash baskets in the Layers palette.
Renaming layers
If the layer name describes its contents, it can help in the work, especially if you figure dozen other layers.
The layer can be renamed
- Double click on the name of the layer in the Layers palette
- While holding down [Alt] double click on the name of the layer , enter a name and click OK.
- Select "Layer Properties" in the "Layers" or in the Layers palette menu "Layers" , enter the new name and click OK.
Color coding layers
Color coding layers into complex patterns to visually distinguish between the layers in the Layers palette (this encoding can be quite arbitrary, it does not affect the contents of layers and done only for the convenience of the designer).
The layers can be represented as a stack of transparencies that can be painted, and if there is no image on the film, you can see through it below lying.
