You can group or link layers by clicking the link icon next to the layer name on the left.

thanks for that m8y, but that is not what i meant, the layer/group with previous is slightly different, i.e if u had a text layer in say black and a layer on top of that with a texture that took up the whole canvas ( i.e, you wouldnt see the text ), and you went to use the group with previous option on the texture layer, only the text would show the texture, i just found it really usefull in imageready for animating gifs.
any help peeps
cheers nath |

lol ok I understand the question a little better now. You can also do a color overlay and select pattern in the drop down menu.
