How do I use the clipping mask layer feature in CyberLink PhotoDirector 365?

For instance, to add a clipping mask based on text content on your image, do this:

1. Click Edit on PhotoDirector launcher, and then select a photo to edit in the Expert module.
2. Clickto add new layers, and then select Create Empty Project.
3. Select the(Text tool) to add text. The text you added will create a new text layer automatically. 
4. Clickto add a new layer again, and then select Add Photo/AI Generated Image/Stock Photo/Solid Color layer to add a new image layer on top of the text layer.
5. Right click on the layer you added in step 4, and then select Apply Clipping Mask.
   
6. The layer where the clipping mask was applied will be clipped into the text shape from the below layer you added in step 3.
