Layer Basics Z999

This excercise changed opacity (transparency) within layers to allow us, for example, to see through the clock to the background behind. We also used blending, with colours within layers, and learned how to link layers, which meant we could 'join' 2 layers together and reposition, scale and rotate them as 1.

'Gradient' was added by introducing a whole new transparent layer, and adding a special effect - in this case the purple colour that you see, graduated from right to left. This effect is applied to any layers below the new layer. We also added text, which is not nearly as simple as it sounds !!
