Rectangular Masks
Use the rectangular mask to mask out a rectangular portion on the current layer. In the following example, a rectangular mask is used to partially isolate the subject (Little Mermaid) from its original background and composite it over the back layer.
To draw a rectangular mask:
- Select the front layer (the layer to which you want to add a mask).
- Choose Operators | Mask | Rectangular Mask.
The mask operator opens and a default size rectangular mask is added to the layer.
- On the Toolbar, click the Arrow tool .
- In the viewport, use the bounding box to adjust the size and rotation of the rectangular mask. For more information, see Editing Object Transform Properties.
- Click the Back button to return to the composite and see the results of the masking operation.
Note: To switch back to the mask operator to make more adjustments, click the Forward button. You can also double-click an operator in the Workspace panel to make it current.
