the color, orientation, size, and composition. Changes made in the Image Editor
will affect only the particular image, whereas changes made in the Project Preview
section will affect all of the images in the project.
To access the Image Editor click the in the gallery view.
Layered Images
Some images which come on the Cricut Imagine
™
Art Cartridge are separated into
individual elements called layers. This gives you an additional level of control over
the color and size of each layer of the image in your project. not only can each
of these layers be individually changed to suit your needs, but they can also be
printed and cut separately.
Images on original Cricut
®
cartridges can be colored and sized, but are not sepa-
rated into layers and thus will be changed as a single image. This means that you
cannot recolor or resize only a portion of an image which comes from an
original cartridge.
You can control whether an image from a Cricut Imagine
™
Art Cartridge is printed
as a single image or in layers using the
Combine
and
Layers
buttons at the top left
of the Image Editor. Selecting Combine will cause the edited image to be printed
and cut as a single image (Figure 1). Selecting Layers will print and cut each layer
of the image separately (Figure 2).
