Photoshop Quicktip, knockout shapes in Photoshop

Photoshop Quicktip, knockout shapes in Photoshop is easy and can be very helpful

Begin with creating a new document (white). Then add a shape (for example a rectangle) and fill it with black.

Then create a second shape and make it white. 

Now we fill the background with lets say Red.

Now we gonna knockout the dog, so that it gets the color of the background.  Click right on the dog and open the blending options.   Choose in knockout = Shallow and reduce the Opacity to zero.

Now the dog has the color of the background.

So if you change the background color during your designing, the dog gets the same color.
