why two rasterize titles?


Recommended Posts

Look here

The german text says: 

Rasterize (first one) is destructive, it simultaneously cuts the layer to canvas size if necessary. It "crops" the layer if you like!

Rasterize (second one) converts an image, text, shape.... or a group....  into a PIXEL layer WITHOUT cutting it to size. 

Simply test both with objects that are scaled BIGGER than the desktop. The best way is to zoom in small so that the blue selection border is visible.

The last one converts a mask from the current layer - just try it with a text or a shape....

BTW: "Rasterise to Mask" dosen't work for me :)

I find it interesting that the Rasterise menu items are in a different order between Mac and Windows, too. I think that should also be fixed.
