i am not sure if that works for my purpose.
Basically when i drag and drop onto the panel with layers it adds a new layer. To begin with i would like the image to be present on an already existing layer.
Anyway, what it does is that i get a new layer with the image i drag and dropped and when both the original layer and this new layer is visible and no settings changed, it just shows the clear white drawing layer i set up by changing basic settings with the creation of the file.
WHEN I DRAG AND DROP into an existing layer opened in the main window with the drawing layer i intend being hidden, it still creates a new layer but now when i uncheck the hide thing (check the show checkbox?) at layers panel, it shows both the clear white and superimposed on it the image.
BUT what i think is that as i added this second layer onto which the drag and dropping happened (and created a new layer anyway), i could set up a setting on the very bottom which sais Fill with: Transparency.
note that with the other method when the picture doesn't show up in combination i could alter a slide of transparency (or how it is stated "Untransparency") the layers partially show up although with half saturation or so, which is not what i want.. Because i like the other results better (however i would prefer the image appearing in the layer i set up manually for that).
