Full Version: Way to draw a template for copying another region
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Not quite sure how to google for this. Say an odd shaped region needs to have the background overlayed, like removing a patch. Is there a way to draw the edge of the patch, but copy the edge to the background, then copy the background within that patch?  I guess I can start to see how a sequence of layers and masks would work but it seems like an option I'm just missing and would be really useful.

Thanks
I was hoping someone would decipher this one Wink  Can you give some more details, a simple sketch might help.

I thought it might be a 'droste' an image inside the same image but I do not know.
