Rasterize vector layers in Pixelmator Pro on Mac

Vector layers include shapes, text, and Pen tool illustrations. Vector graphics are infinitely scalable with no loss in resolution. A Raster layer is any type of layer that consists of pixels—images, masks, paintings, and photos. So, when you paint or edit images, you’re working with raster layers.

In Pixelmator Pro, a composition can contain both raster and vector layers. However, you can’t use pixel-based raster tools (the Repair, Clone, Retouching, and Paint tools, for example) on a vector layer without first converting the vector layer to a raster layer.

  1. In Pixelmator Pro on Mac, go to the Layers sidebar.

  2. Control-click a layer, then choose Convert to Pixels.

Note: When you merge a vector layer with a raster layer the merged layer is automatically rasterized.
