Hi,
Someimtes I use a layer style for an effect, but I want it only on part of a layer... NOT ALL of it.

For example, I have a layer where I select a circlular area in the middle of the layer, and then I delete it, exposing the layer below through the circle.
NOW... For just the circular area I want a bevel and emboss style. I don't really want it on the whole layer because the edges of the layer will have the effect, and I don't want it there... I only on part of the layer.. or in my example the circular area.

ANY IDEAS on how to do this???

Isn't there a way to copy a selection and paste it into a new layer with the layer style 'rendered' ????

Thanks
