(Guide lines are turned on in the Settings menu see Part 1.) As I move the layer from side to side, guide lines appear to inform me whether it is centered correctly. A two-fingered pinch just resizes the entire image within the workspace, so it is necessary to use the handles to resize the layer. I have to resize it slightly to fill the image, and I do that by using the handles that appear over the layer. I do not do that during the course of this lesson, so you’ll see it throughout. (After adding this image, it will save space to delete the stock image as the lowest layer. Then I re-select the bottom layer and add my image, some white and purple blooms. I double tap the white layer, and select Delete from the drop-down menu that appears. I decide to eliminate the white layer, since I definitely won’t need it. When I tapped the + sign at the upper right to add my image, I was told that for images of this size, the upper limit for number of layers is four. With the stock photo active, any layer I add will be placed right above it. Create Image can also be accessed by tapping the + in the upper left corner and selecting Create Image from the drop-down list”. Templates are stock images with various shapes, test objects or textures added in layers on top of the stock images.īelow you’ll see a screenshot of my gallery, and there’s a big white square with a + which is the button to create an image. These templates are accessed through the Create Image function. The quickest way to produce a layered file is through the use of templates that are packaged within Pixelmator. Also, you can return to each object and re-edit you’re not forced to commit an edit before the whole is finished. Layering allows you to combine images, textures, text and other objects while giving you the ability to edit each object individually.

Layering is the main benefit of full-featured editors like Pixelmator, Photoshop Touch, Leonardo, Laminar Pro and others. In this entry, I’ll be talking about layering extensively. Of course, that merely scratches the surface of what Pixelmator can do.

“In Part 1 of the Pixelmator series of articles, the basics were covered: opening a file, adding layers, dealing with the gallery, saving a merged version of the layered image. Pixelmator for iPad retails for $4.99/£2.99 and you can download it here We’re quite sure you will find this tutorial invaluable (foreword by Joanne Carter). This time Jerry goes a little deeper, discussing layering and more.
