Creating a bitmap layer from a relief layer

Use the Create Bitmap Layer button to create a new bitmap layer containing a greyscale image of the active relief layer.

To create a greyscale bitmap layer from the active relief layer:

1. In the Project Tree, click beside the Front Relief or Back Relief item to display either the front or back relief layer stack.
2. Select the layer from which you want to create the bitmap to display its panel below the splitter bar.
3. On the panel, click below the splitter bar.
4. Display the 2D view to view the new bitmap.

   A new bitmap layer containing the greyscale image is created above the currently selected bitmap layer in its stack. The new bitmap layer is named after the relief layer it was created from and is selected by default.
