Layer properties can be found on the Tools panel, which consists of two tabs: Properties and Masking.
Opacity. The Opacity slider enables you to lower or fade the amount or strength of the Layer as a whole. Lowering the opacity of a layer can help refine the blending of the image on the layers and any tools applied without altering the settings of individual tools separately.
Blend Modes. A blend mode compares the content of two layers and enacts changes based on the content of both layers.
Horizontal Flip. A transformation feature allows you to mirror a layer horizontally (from left to right).
Vertical Flip. Enables you to create a mirror layer vertically. It flips the content from top to bottom.
Image Mapping. Automated linking of different sections of an image
Brush Mask. Using a Brush Mask is one of the easiest ways to mask an image. You can use brush strokes to add to or subtract from the mask.
Linear Gradient Mask. The Linear Gradient Mask is useful for creating a gradual blend.
Radial Gradient Mask. A Radial Gradient Mask offers a quick and easy way to mask an elliptical area of your photo.
Mask AI. MaskAI detects up to nine separate elements in a photo: people, skies, buildings, vehicles, water, plants, mountains, and both natural and artificial ground for the perfect mask.
Fill. This option covers your entire image with a mask. After using Fill, you can select Paint and use the Erase mode to subtract from the mask.
Clear. This option removes your mask entirely. After clicking Clear, you can use the Paint Mask, Gradient Mask, or Radial Mask tools to add details to the image.
Invert. This option inverts any mask you’ve created to reverse its opacity and transparency values.
Copy. This option copies the current mask to the clipboard. To use this copied mask, create a new mask using any tool and paste it into the new tool mask.
Paste. This option pastes the current mask stored on the clipboard for use on another tool mask.
Show. This option controls the visibility of the mask. Clicking Show displays the mask as a red overlay. You may continue drawing your mask for greater precision while this overlay is shown. Click Show again to remove the red overlay.
