7.4.38 Vector/Fit in Vector Layer
Fit in Vector Layer will create a new rectangular vector layer having the
size and position of the active layer. The fill color will be the foreground
color and the line color will be transparent.
This function is useful for various tasks, for example:
- For lossless image processing you can assign an adjustment to the vector
layer making it an adjustment layer (see chapter 7.5.11).
- You can use the rectangle for coloring the background of a text layer.
