Group Layer

The Paste Canvas layer is a special layer that can hold other layers. It is generated via the Encapsulate command accessed via the context menu in the Layers Dialog or through the Layer Menu in the Canvas Menu Caret.

Paste Canvas layers can be created through the New Layer Menu, using New Layer > Other > Paste Canvas.

A Paste Canvas layer has the following parameters:

• Z Depth
• Amount
• Blend Method
• Origin
• Canvas: This is "Inline Canvas" by default if the Paste Canvas layer was created by encapsulating other layers, or "Pasted Canvas" if it was created from the New Layer Menu. This parameter lets you select another canvas.
• Zoom Parameter
• Time Offset
• Children Lock
