Using Vector Paint (PB only)
The following illustrations use the same basic example of an imported image. A straight
paint stroke has been applied, followed by a curving erasure stroke. The original image is
a textured fill and mask that reveals only a circular area of the fill. For these examples,
Checkerboard Background is selected (in the Composition window menu, click the right
arrow above the vertical stroll bar to open that menu).
A. In Original (default setting), before painting The imported image is visible.
B. In Original, with paint stroke The paint strokes appear above the original image.
C. In Original, with paint stroke and erasure stroke An erasure stroke removes underlying
portions of both the paint stroke and the original image.
D. Only The original image on the layer does not appear in the working view; only paint
strokes are shown. Erasures remove only paint, not the original image.
E. Over Original The original image is visible in the working view, similar to the In
Original option. Painting and erasing occur as with the Only option: Erasing removes
pixels from underlying paint strokes but does not alter the original image.
