Welcome back.
Now we're going to leave our images open here at the top so you'll see that there are three PSAT files
that we have open and active.
We're going to do is we're going to open a new canvas to work on and we're going to do that by going
to this final command.
We're then going to go and click this link that says new.
Now we are going to open up a new transparent canvas to work on.
First we can name our canvas and then we're going to determine how wide and how high this canvas is
going to be.
Now if you know that you have graphics that are fairly sizable then when you do this you're typically
want to choose a resolution that's going to be fairly high or you can leave it at the default setting
of 72 which is going to be just fine for most marketing graphics.
If you want a higher quality color in your graphics you can go higher up to 32 or you can leave it at
16.
And typically what you're going to do is you want to make sure that your canvas starts as transparent.
We can always go back and paint that canvas but we want to start with a transparent canvas.
And when you do that you can then click the create button to open the new canvas.
What's going to happen then is a new window is going to open here at the top.
So that will actually then half for active windows.
So now we have another active window.
You'll notice that it has its own layers panel.
And you can tell because if we were to click back over to the other graphic that we had up that has
its own layers panel we click over to this panel has a layers panel click again.
This one has layers panels.
We can click back to the canvas.
We just create it and we know that we have a layers panel.
And this is going to make it fairly easy for us to demonstrate the concept of layers in the next video.
But one other thing that you want to take note of is that if we need to look at the canvas and see more
of it at the same time all we need to do is to hit the control minus button and we zoom out of the canvas
if we want to see more of the canvas or see it up close.
We can hit the control plus button in order to see more of it and you will routinely need to size out
of a canvas in order to see an entire picture.
And that will be a very helpful command for you to be able to use and no ok with that.
Thanks.
And I will see you in another video.
