Hi all,
I would like to create a layer that contains a kind of helping mask, being black where one shall not paint and being transparent where it is allowed. It shall be the topmost layer and it must not print. You see, it’s like the guide lines from the view menu, you see the lines, they are topmost and they are invisible to the printer. I need a "guide layer" containing more than just some lines, but working just like the guide lines. So far I simply switch the layer off manually before printing, but sometimes I forget that and print garbage.
– Is it possible to have a layer to stay always on top?
– Is it possible to make a layer unprintable?
My photoshop version is 6.0.
Thanks in advance.
Thorsten.
