​
Toolbar

  • Hold a tool’s key to borrow it; release to go back.
  • The row under the toolbar holds the tool’s size, opacity and presets. Right-click the canvas for a quick brush menu.
  • On a 3D layer, only Transform and the selection tools work.

​
Layers

  • Layer menu: Add to…, Rename, Copy, Duplicate, Merge down, AI Actions (Enhance, Remove Background, Unify, Extend Image, Convert to PBR), Mirror Layer, Generate 3D, Export…, Export to Autodesk Fusion (3D layers), Delete.
  • Crop or extend: select Canvas (C) and drag its edges. Extend fills new margins and uses credits.
  • Layers can’t be locked.
