walt.farrell Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Layer > New Fill Layer from the Menu is what you want to get the layer. Then, in the Context Toolbar, you can change the Type pulldown to Bitmap. A dialog will open allowing you to select the bitmap file you want to use. I'm not sure it's ever been possible to "fill" a geometrical shape with a bitmap, in the technical meaning of fill, but you could create your shape and paste an image into it (Edit > Paste Inside). Or Place an image onto your document and then drag it into the rectangle on the Layers panel.

I forgot about that tool, and yes, that works.

(Though in Photo it is the Gradient Tool, not the Fill Tool mentioned there. Same tool, same icon, different names.)

MxHeppa Posted October 18, 2019 Author Share Posted October 18, 2019 yes know gradient should be set bitmap but there is no such option i can put screenshot if we talk same menu. and i think we talk becouse earlier older version i seen it. and i can use these papers in mask but this way i cannot use do yellow paper for example like their example where even non painted areas have paper texture. somehow i tried copy how they use them with no luck. i use Photo their video is made with Designer i unerstand methods are same even single menu item is different name. I am serious even marque tool dont cut image to clip board but after restarting works again. there is my rectange filling options in gradient side. i understanded and i think i even seen in older version this menu this option what we talk. looks like most recent versio has wierd problems compared version what i loaded trial and registred after this.

You need to select the object, then the Gradient Tool, then use the Context Toolbar: Change the Type to Bitmap.

MxHeppa Posted October 18, 2019 Author Share Posted October 18, 2019 i get part paper working i think but if which element paint goes? makes me sad when something so complex to my brains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MxHeppa Posted October 18, 2019 Author Share Posted October 18, 2019 this paper tutorial i think paint is mixed with multiply and in paper i use lighten? even looks dont correct one based theirt example i mean how their example look. makes me happy i think if someone lists what elements uses which mixing mode.

MxHeppa Posted October 18, 2019 Author Share Posted October 18, 2019 one way what i can use these papers is this (what i can use get niceresults but i dont know how correct this is to get real watercolor look even i use itself real ones). new project where i put rectangle of color what i want (paper color) and top of this i convert one papers to mask and use multiply method. and sub layer to this paper coloured rectable i paint my stuff. then if i use erase i get again original paper. and mixing colours this method i used even this place multiply. somehow i have something in my understanding in orginally way do things. somehow cutting stuff form photo with cutting tool dont work there is indeed something what i dont understand. try give soon picture what tells my settings. to use these papers at least one way.

MxHeppa Posted October 18, 2019 Author Share Posted October 18, 2019 My cropping tries goed better when even for screenshot which single layer of course i used copy flattened not only copy. there is my settings i used Multiply all palces expect drawing this muted purple rectangle. this is at least nice way use these papers i dont yet understand even i tried what layer is what mode in original tutorial. now looks i understand this paper element (texture) should be overlay way. next learn this copy and paste menu.

MxHeppa Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 At least affinity photo to get results what look i think same what in this video painting (pixel) layer should be sub of paper color rectangle. like this way: a paper color is normal layer,paint is multiply and paper texture picture is overlay. this way looks i think how is they used in video even video somehow paint layer is not part of paper color layer.

MxHeppa Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 Or paper colour layer is after paint layer. actjually i looked video again (about 7th time at least) is indeed this way i see. easier is understand differnet order like paper color after this paper texture and then paint but i must use program how is desgined not think how sounds more clear to my brains. Seems now clear. i try do own notes about this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MxHeppa Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 and i found if i want invert some this kind paper it rasterize it after this i cannot change anymore without probelms paper if i must do again such paper texture layer. solution premade inverted picture wanted paper texture. paper texture means any picture what i want use this way some other images work nicely this way. and good remember is uses also color data form image.
