The Layer Boundary Size lets you set the the boundary of the layer. Remember
|
|
you can have a smaller or larger layer than the image boundary size. When
|
|
you enlarge the boundary size, then you will add some space to paint on to
|
|
your layer. Naturally it will be wise versa when you make the boundary size
|
|
it smaller.
|
|
<P>
|
|
The size area will control how big or small your new layer boundary will
|
|
be just as when you created a new layer. The Offset area will control how
|
|
your layer is clipped or expanded.

The offset fields will control where your upper left corner of the old layer
|
|
will be in the "new" layer. The best way to control the new location and
|
|
how and where the layer will be clipped. Is to drag the "layer preview" in
|
|
the Offset area to the right position, and make the final touch with
|
|
the spin buttons (or type it in by hand). The thin outline is the new layer
|
|
size and you have to drag the old layer to the right position so it will
|
|
be clipped according to your demands.

<P>
|
|
If you uncheck the chain in the Size area, you will be able to have different
|
|
ratios when you make the "new" layer . It's therefore possible e.g to have
|
|
a layer which is smaller in X direction and bigger in Y direction than before
|
|
you altered the layer boundary size.
