4.2.29 Layertools

The Layertools serve the purpose of the manipulation of the draw layer contents.

The following operations are available.

Keep layer contents
If this option is active, the content of the draw layer will not be erased after a fixation.

Invert
This inverts the selection of the draw layer.

Smooth
Smooths the content of the draw layer by a settable value. Used correctly it can e.g. create shadow effects.

Transparency
Affects the intensities of the draw layer. Values smaller zero increase the portion of the base image, values greater zero the portion of the effect layer on the result.

Antialiasing
Rounds "edgy" parts of the draw layer with additional tranparency value.

Copy to picture
Creates a new image containing the contents of the draw layer as base image.

Copy from picture
Uses the contents of another image as draw layer. The selected image has to have the same size, though.
