Working with layers
 
Working with layers
When you work with layers in Corel PaintShop Pro, you can add elements to your images, create artistic effects and illustrations, and edit your images more easily. You can add or delete layers, rearrange the order in which they are stacked, and blend their pixels in various ways. Unless you merge the layers, you can edit each one independently of the others.
