9. BASIC CONCEPTS
Adobe Photoshop is a powerful, industry standard
image-editing tool for designers, artists, film & video
makers, etc.
39. LAYERS
Photoshop documents are composed of layers, which can basically be
described as single transparent sheets which hold particular pieces of an
image.
These layers can contain images, text, and vector graphics, and can be
rearranged and grouped according to user needs.
Layers are controlled with the use of the Layers pane.
Simply click on the name of a layer in order to designate it as the current
layer. Whenever you add text to an image in Photoshop, the text appears
on a new layer.
You can "merge down" layers to consolidate them, and "flatten image"
to force the entire contents of the image onto one layer.
