There are ten types of layers: Background, Raster, Vector, Art Media, Mask, Adjustment, Group, Frame, Selection, and Floating Selection. You can stack multiple layers to create artistic compositions, photo collages, or complex illustrations.
Transparent areas let you see the underlying layers. As you add brushstrokes, vector objects, or text, you cover up parts of the Background layer. Layers are like separate sheets that you combine to create a final composition.Įach layer you add begins as a transparent sheet over the background.
