Layers 487

Layer-based selections function in the same way as selections on the canvas — you can

use them to constrain brushstrokes, to isolate an area of the layer for applying an effect,

or to choose an area of the layer to cut or copy. For more information, see “Selections

and Transformations” on page 543.

When you convert a canvas-based selection to a layer, a new layer appears in the Layers

panel. However, when you convert a layer-based selection, a Layer Floating Object

appears as an item below the parent layer in the Layers panel.

You can move floating objects around a layer to create new compositions. Each layer in

a document can have only one floating object at a time. You can drop a floating object

to merge it with the layer, but many operations automatically drop (or merge) the

floating object back to its parent layer.

Floating objects are created by making a selection on a pixel-based layer. Shapes cannot

be floating objects because they are vector-based. However, you can turn a shape into a

pixel-based layer. For more information, see “To convert a shape to a pixel-based layer

for painting” on page 768.

When you save a document to RIFF format, Corel Painter preserves all floating objects.

However, saving a document in a non-RIFF format automatically drops floating objects

onto their parent layers.

To convert a selection to a layer or floating object

1 Create a selection on the canvas or a layer with a selection tool.

2 Perform an action from the following table.

When you rotate, scale, distort, or flip a selection using the Trans f orm tool

, the selection is automatically committed to a layer. For more information,

see “Preparing selections for transformations” on page 565.
