Using Stencils

 
 
 

You can enable/disable a stencil to paint without or through a stencil on a per stroke basis. The stencil is applied transiently, only the part of the strokes that pass through it are kept.

There are three stencil modes:

Stencil: Result:
Matte Off Default setting, no stencils are used.
Use Layer Strokes will be constrained by the matte inputted into the layer.
Use Stroke Forms a stencil from what is currently available in that layer.
Invert Inverts the stencil.
