, the bin button at the bottom the layers , window lists several kinds of layers , pixel layers representing images and , photos live shapes indicating vector , graphics type layers which are related , to title sand adjustment layers that , apply Corrections let's check all of , these vector shapes are objects that are , not rendered into pixel sand so do not , lose quality when you edit and shape , them you can use the shape tools inside , the tools bar to drop your favorite , shape by clicking and dragging , then with either the options bar or the , properties window you can fix the size , and position for such object , including its fill color its stroke , color thickness , and style , type layers are pieces of text that are , not yet rendered into pixels just like , vector shapes with

affecting the whole work space by , default if you add this layer with a , selection area only such region will be , affected the adjustment layer is , composed by two parts as you can see , from the layers and the properties , windows the adjustment properties where , you set and find its options and the , mask which sets where the correction is , applied white color for the active , region sand black where the effect is , off , keep in mind that the adjustment layer , affects just all the layers that stay , below it in the layers order to add , special effects such as transparency , contour shadow and glow right click on a , layer and go to blending options check , it out , if you need to join up two or more , layers select them both while holding , cotyledon right click and go to
