Is 'rasterise' the same as 'render'?

Todd, that's EXACTLY what I was talking about.  However, clicking on the
Show Bounding Box didn't seem to do the trick.  But I played around with
it for a while and found out that if you Rasterize the layer then it
behaves like a normal line and is fully editable.

Thank you!

Casey

Casey -

I looked to see if somebody replied to this, but didn't see it.  So I
apologize for the duplicate if that is the case.

I believe what you are talking about is the "bounding box" - the tiny
dotted lines that are around anything you select with the move tool.
When you are getting the error message that "this layer is not directly
editable" when you try to erase it, that is because you are probably on
the layer below it, either a locked layer or the original background
layer.

To get rid of it, you will need to have the "Move Tool" selected (the
arrow), then click on "Show Bounding Box" at the top.  If you do not see
this, go to Window and make sure that "Options" is selected.  Then just
uncheck the box.  

There are times when it is useful to have the bounding box showing, but
certainly more times than not when it is a pain in the a**.

When you do go back to edit this line, make sure that you highlight that
layer to edit.  I find that when working with the line tool that it
isn't easily "selectable" by clicking on it, and usually selects instead
the locked background behind it.  Also, the type of line that you use
(shape layer, path, fill pixels) determines the ease at which you can
edit it.

Sorry if this is way off - HTH!
