To create a layer mask:
1. Click the object that you want to add a mask on. You can also select the object
directly at the Layer Manager.
2. Make a selection using the tools available. Make sure the selection intersects
with the object to be modified.
Tip: Use Path Drawing Tool or Outline Drawing Tool and select Mode: Selection for
more shape variety for your selection.
3. Click Create a new layer mask to change your selection into a layer mask. To
edit the layer mask, click Enter Mask Mode and modify the layer mask with
the Transform Tool. You can also click
between the object and the layer mask for more varieties. When you're done,
click Exit Mask Mode.
Notes:
• Right-click the object mask or layer mask for more options such as copy.
• An object can have one layer mask only. So, if you want to create more than
one layer mask for the same object, please duplicate the object first.
Layer mask (a rectangle here in the
example) intersects with the original object.
