I am almost embarrassed to be asking this because i used to do this all the time and after a time not working with painter, im struggling.

so i have a line drawing i did manually. i can import it. there used to be a way to turn the line drawing into a gel layer so that the ink import line work was on its own layer with no back ground. just the lines. I am unable to figure this out in painter 2015. I used to do it all the time. but i had an older version. I have done hours of looking on line. and the closest thing i found, was a tute, that had you trace over the lines you imported. I dont think so lol. i know it is there , but i can not find it. does anyone know how?

yeah, and is vector lines no longer supported? i dont see it anywhere or am i just getting old and doing the old man thing. that would really piss me off to be honest lol.

any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Bob
