    DUPLICATING A LAYER

                     Duplicating a layer serves various purposes, like preserving the original layer’s content before
                     making changes to the original content. It also enables us to create different versions or variations
                     of an element in our artwork.

                     To duplicate a layer, follow the given steps:

                                                                  1   Select the layer that
                                                                 you want to duplicate.

                                                     2  Click on the Duplicate layer or mask
                                                    button at the bottom of the Layers docker.

                     HIDING A LAYER
                     Hiding a layer helps us focus on specific elements. You can hide a particular layer temporarily
                     while working on other layers. Imagine you are working on a detailed background but need to

                     focus on adding details to a character in the foreground.
                     By  hiding  the  background  layer  temporarily,  you  can  concentrate  on  the  character  without

                     distractions. After you are done working on the object, you can unhide the layer.

                         For hiding a layer, click on the open-eye-shape icon       in the beginning of the layer name in
                         the Layers docker.
                         For unhiding a layer, click on the closed-eye-shape icon         in the beginning of the hidden

                         layer’s name in the Layers docker. The icon will change to the open-eye-shape icon again,
                         and the content of the layer will also become visible.

                                                                                                        More on Krita  41
