Photo objects
Photo objects are bitmap images without a
background. They are also referred to as
floating objects or cutout images. Unlike
photos, photo objects can have various shapes,
and you can place them on top of another
image without covering up the underlying
image. You can select, move, and edit photo
objects the way you would any other object.
For more information, see “Working with
