Visualise Your Imagination Instantly With The Clipping Mask Download

By Coleen Torres


A clipping mask is a cover that's placed on another object which hides the part of the object that falls outside the boundary. You do all these with a clipping mask download. The clipping path is nothing but a closed vector path or shape. It can be circular, square, triangular, rectangular, etc. Anything inside the path will be included, while those falling outside the path will be omitted.

At any point in time that you need to fit your image or content inside a circle, the download will allow you to create the desired circular shape in the base layer. There are two layers in the clipping veil. One is called base layer, which creates and accommodates any shape. The second one, or clipped layer, will provide the content or the photo you wish to use.

Create the shape of your choice in the base layer using the shape creating tools. You may choose a circle, an ellipse, or any other shape of your choice. Hold down the ALT/option button and click the dividing line between the two layers in the layers panel.

If you place an image in the layer 0 of the clipping veil window and add a new circular shaped layer below it, you may fit the image into the shape of the new layer. Again, any shape can be created in the new layer such as a circular shape, elliptical shape, etc.

The software also has provisions to adjust the image inside the base layer shape. Use that feature and get the image fixed in a matter of few minutes. Now that the image is clipped, you may like to see the effects of changing the shape of the image. The software has generated an option for changing the shape. Just go to the shape editing tools and get your desired shape instantly. The layer palete allows you to create multiple base layers and saves them all to allow modifications or experimentations in no time.

Basically, these steps involve creating the content layer and base layer. You give shape to the base layer and then clip the image. Once the two layers are generated, you just hold the Alt/Option button and click the dividing line between the two layers.

The cursor immediately changes to a pointing arrow to the left of the content layer, and tow the circles like in a Venn diagram. Just click the mouse and your job is done. Your photo or content layer will be clipped to the shape of the base layer. A right-angled downward arrow next to the clipped layer will denote this.

You may also select some shape or background such as a photo frame, a wall with a window, etc. You can place your object in the image inside this photo frame or window opening. It adds new dimensions to your image.

While reshaping the base layer, the clipped image is generated instantly, giving you instant feedback on the new creation. A number of base layers can be created in this software. It generates the type layer, normal bitmap layer, and vector shape layers.

This mask allows you to save lot of time and encourages you to experiment on your. Another advantage is to reshape the base layer. Just use shape editing tools and change the shape layer. Get your feedback instantly and finalize the visuals.
