I had to stop at 6:14. I'm lost. I tried reshaping my upper layers & it seems to resize the backround too (1 of my images). I tried creating fill layers, importing another imageusing place= nada. No luck. I would need to see from the beginning how everything is done, not with all the layers there. I don't create art, I just edit images doing some light object removal, cloning, & maybe changed a sky once using , File, Place & a brush once to try a while back & can't even remember if I used an erase brush, etc.=lost.

WHEW,, Got it!!! Had to open a new image, go to the layers panel, copy, go back to the original image -layers panel paste & move the layers around. I had to go back & forth from AP to this vid to get it. Thanks Olivio! And I'm only at 6 min. Back to the vid.

I'll put them to use for my KZbin channel and relative social media profiles, as well as to create covers for my books. Hope this doesn't sound rude, but how come you don't have any courses on Udemy? It's a great platform, and you would have your first customer right here! 🙂

Very helpful. I find that Serif do not have a very clear way of referring to the two types of layers. Is one a "child" layer and the other a "mask" layer? Are they both "child" layers but with different behaviors? Serif do not speak clearly about this. Here are my take aways: 1. When the content of a layer is positioned as a "child" (long bar, not a "mask") layer, it is the "parent" layer that clips the boundaries of the "child". 2. When the content of a layer is positioned as a "mask" (short bar, not a "child") layer, it is the "mask" layer that clips the boundaries of the "parent" layer. 3. When the content of a layer is positioned as a "mask" (short bar, not a "child") layer, any alpha transparency values of the "mask" layer content have an effect on the transparency of the "parent". This alpha information could be from a gradient with transparency, as you illustrated, or even from a Blend Range curve adjustment to the "mask" layer content.
