Templates are displayed on the desktop as layers. To make a layer active, click on its opaque part with the left mouse button.

To change the size of an active layer, drag its frame while holding down the left mouse button.

To move a layer inside the working area, drag it in the desired direction while pressing the left mouse button.

To rotate a layer, click on it and, while pressing Shift, move the cursor to the left or right. When the cursor is moved to the right, the layer will turn clockwise, and when the cursor is moved to the left, counter-clockwise.

To browse through overlapping layers, click on them while pressing Ctrl. The active layer will change sequentially, and will be indicated by a frame around it and its name in the info line.

Right-click on a layer to open a pop-up menu containing some additional options.

Pressing the cursor keys on your keyboard while holding down Ctrl will move the active layer by one pixel in the corresponding direction. If you press Ctrl and Shift at the same time, the cursor keys will move the active layer by ten pixels.

To undo any action performed on a layer, press Ctrl+Z.

Pressing the Delete key will delete the active layer.

To move the whole working area, hold down the Alt key and then drag it in the desired direction using the left mouse button.
