Using a Clip Mask to Paint Effects in Corel PHOTO-PAINT®
By Clifford Anderson

Our purpose here will be to introduce the Clip Mask in Corel PHOTO-PAINT®, and then move on to a technique that allows the user to paint effects found in the Effects menu onto an image. Before we begin, let’s get our workspace set up:
Set Paint wells in the Status bar to the default (Paint=Black, Paper=White, Fill=Black). Open the following Docker Windows: Objects, Channels, Artistic Media and Brush Settings. Create a new canvas, white background, 500 x 400 pixels.
To start, let’s do a brief run-through of what a clip mask can do for us.
1) With our new canvas, add a layer (to quickly add a layer, click the New Object button at the foot of the Objects Docker window).
2) Select the Circle Mask Tool from the Mask Flyout in the Toolbox (or, press J on the keyboard).
3) From the Tool Property Bar, choose Fixed for the mask style, Width=250, Height=250, Feather=0, Anti-alias=on.
4) Place a circle mask, centered onto the new object (the mask can be aligned perfectly by selecting the Mask Transform Tool, or M", and choosing Align from the Mask menu).
5) Select Edit, Fill and accept Black as the Fill color. Remove the mask (CTRL + SHIFT + R).
6) In the Objects Docker window, right-click the text entitled Object 1, and choose duplicate selected (CTRL + D).
7) Now, with Object 2 selected, go to Effects, Blur, Gaussian Blur. Set the Radius to 20.0 pixels. Click OK.
8) Again, from the Effects menu, go to Creative, Scatter.
Set the Horizontal and Vertical controls to 75. Commit the effect.
9) From the Objects Docker window, right-click the thumbnail image (not the text) of Object 2.
Select Create Clip Mask, From Object Transparency (there are other options we will cover below).
This action adds an additional thumbnail to the right of a + sign that appears to be the inverse of the object.
This is the Clip Mask proper.
The black marks 0% transparency, the white, 100%.
Let’s add another level of transparency to our clip mask and witness the effect. 10) Press R on the keyboard (for the Rectangle Mask Tool).
Ensure the Clip Mask is selected (the thumbnail will be bound in red). Draw a rectangle that encompasses the right-hand half of the entire canvas
