You can transfer a marquee selection from one bitmap to another bitmap object on the same layer or one on a different layer. You can also transfer the marquee selection to a mask.

To transfer a marquee selection to another bitmap object:

  1. Make a selection by drawing the marquee.
  2. In the Layers panel, select a different bitmap object on the same layer or an object on a different layer.

    The marquee is transferred to that object.

    NOTE

    Fireworks treats masks and masked objects as separate objects. For more information on masks, see Masking images.
