Joachim_L Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 Inspired by the post of GarryP I started experimenting converting layers back and forth. Apologies for taking MEBs avatar as an example. I wonder what else is possible? Step 1) Place image Step 2) Convert into picture frame Step 3) Convert into text frame Step 4) Fill up the text frame with text - in this case the bullet (Alt+0149) Quote ------ Windows 10 | i5-8500 CPU | Intel UHD 630 Graphics | 32 GB RAM | Latest Retail and Beta versions of complete Affinity range installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a cutting mask. You don't have to do these transformation orgies. Any text frame can be masked with any image. All you have to do is drag the image layer as a subordinate layer below the text layer (short horizontal line). You did this unconsciously when you converted the image into a picture frame in step 2). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
