Delete masked items OR multiple masks in a layer Howdy
IL CS2, Windows XP, etc.
What I have is a graphic that utilizes a mask. I'm trying to paste
that into a layer that also has a mask. The problem is, when I do
that, the mask in the graphic disappears. The layer mask remains. Does
IL only allow one mask per layer?
I tried Flatten Transparency, but it still left huge white spaces
where there should be nothing, so that didn't help. Various
experiments with grouping and sublayers didn't help either.
How do I do this? Ideally, there'd be a "Delete all the crap you
masked out" button, but unfortunately, there isn't one.
TIA

Re: Delete masked items OR multiple masks in a layer
Hm, after more searching I found this thread:

Post #3 helped, but is there a more elegant way of handling multiple
mask paths in a single layer?
The current problem is solved, but I'm still curious.
