Will create a new layer. You can set the new layers attributes in the
|
|
|
|
|
Layer Name field please see <A HREF="edit_layer_attributes.html">Edit Layer
|
|
|
|
|
Attributes</A> for an explanation of layer attributes. Just as in
|
|
|
|
|
<A HREF="../file_new.html">New Image</A> can you also set the Fill Type to
|
|
|
|
|
either the Foreground or Background color of the tool box, White or totally
|
|
|
|
|
Transparent.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
The size of the layer can be set in a number of different ways and units.
|
|
|
|
|
A new unit is the % unit which will create a new layer that is X% of the
|
|
|
|
|
bottom layer. Default is to measure the new layer in pixels which is the
|
|
|
|
|
best if you are dealing with web graphics, but if you going to print your
|
|
|
|
|
image then real world units such as inches is probably the preferred.
