GIMP :: How To Delete All Invisible Layers

Sep 3, 2008

I can't find a way in Gimp 2.4 to delete all invisible layers, is there one?

When working with a slightly complex file I use to have multiple layers which I show, hide and duplicate as needed. After a while my layers dialog gets cluttered and I need to delete layers I don't need anymore, most of these layers are invisible and going one by one to delete takes much time, an option to remove all invisible layers would be great.

There's an option to delete invisible layers on "Image > Merge Visible Layers" but this, as the name says, merges all other layers.

Paint.NET :: Layers / Delete All Invisible Before Saving

May 12, 2011

To reduce file size when working with 100+ layers, can I delete multiple invisible layers before saving?

If not, is there a plug-in for this procedure? For a multi-page tutorial with over 100 layers, pdn is slow when opening or saving the file. I would like to save each page of the tutorial as a separate .pdn file for faster loading/editing/saving. Unfortunately, to save each individual page, I must delete many layers one-at-a-time which is very time consuming.

I need to delete all invisible layers before saving, to save each page separately and keep the original multi-page intact for backup until all individual pages are saved.

How many layers can PDN handle?

GIMP :: Make All Other Layers Invisible

Feb 28, 2013

I'm using Gimp 2.8.4 and when selecting a new layer to work on, it then switches to another layer which becomes the selected one.The only way I can definitely select the layer I want to work on is to make all other layers invisible.

Photoshop :: Deleting Duplicate Layers Linked To Others Make Remaining Layers Invisible?

Aug 6, 2013

I'm using CS6 and noticed that whenever I delete a layer that was a dupe of another layer with links (although not linked specifically to the deleted layer), the undeleted original layers become invisible on the canvas even though they are still visible in the layers pallette. I've been able to recreate this several times. Nothing I do will make the layers visible -I've tried moving them all to the top of the layers palette, making sure their opacity is 100%, making sure there are no layer effects, etc.

Photoshop :: Video Layers Go Invisible

Jul 14, 2013

A friend asked me to make an animated forum signature for him but their forum has a rule the sig size must be 650x200.

So i thought i would fit it in my own 650x200 signature and cutting everything outside that out using the wand tool on every layer (125) I made them visible cut out the outskirts and made it invisible again one by one , with the little eye next to the layer.

After u import Video frames to layers only the first one is visible , but in order to cut in a layer i needed to make it visible , and apperently after u make a layer visible its invisible in the saving (Save for Web option) After i was finished all i had left with was one layer that was visibile the other 5 seconds were just invisible
 
how to fix this , i ran into it a couple of times now its getting pretty annoying.

(I'm trying to fit video frames in here)

Photoshop :: Invisible Part Of Layers Are Still Visible

Jun 10, 2013

For some time now i experience a really strange problem with my layer masks: the parts of a layer I hide with a black layer mask are still slightly visible in my picture - like these pixels still have an opacity of about 5%. The colour in the mask is definitly black and not dark grey (this was my first guess what could be wrong). I have no idea when this problem started, but I believe it was not there when I started to use CS6 (which I still do and on which the problem appears).

AutoCAD 2013 :: Section Drawing - Layers Invisible

May 9, 2013

I have been working on a detailed section drawing in AutoCad 2013

I saved the file in different files as i gone along, I have been trying to open the file everytime i do all the layers are there but only two are visible all the other seem to be invissible.

I tried it with each file on different computers, same version of AutoCad no success.

It apears that in the preview before opening the file it is all there but when actually opening the file its only a random two layers that come up, missing around 10 others which have the majority of the drawing /details on there.

I tried the unhide, changing line weights in the layer menu, opening the back ups. is there anything else I can try.

AutoCad 3D :: Won't Delete Layers In Drawing In Layers Properties Manager

Sep 20, 2006

There are some layers in my drawing that won't delete in the layers properties manager. I don't know why. It gives me 4 possible reasons:

- It might be layer 0 or a Defpoint (whatever that is).
- It is the current layer
- It is an Xref dependent layer
- It is a layer containing objects

But none of these, to my knowledge, apply. There could be things on the layer that I'm just not seeing, but I've looked thoroughly. I even zoomed out to the extents, highlighted the whole area, and clicked the erase tool, but it still won't go away. I got the file from another computer, so it might be an Xref dependent layer and the Xref'ed files just didn't come with it. How would I be able to tell - and how could I remove the Xref dependency?

Other than that, is there any other reason a layer won't delete? Can I force it to delete?

Photoshop :: Using Transform Or Selection Tools Makes Non-background Layers Or Whole Document Invisible

Dec 15, 2012

I recently started having this problem in Photoshop CS6 where using the transform or selection tools makes all the layers other than my background layer disappear so I can't see what I'm selection or transforming. This happens randomly out of nowhere. I can be using those tools all day with no problem, and then out of nowhere it starts making things invisible.

There doesn't seem to be any other programs running that would cause it (not that that should be an issue, my computer could easily run all my Adobe programs at once if I wanted it to), and the only thing that seems to fix it so far is restarting Photoshop. But that gets old really fast when I have to do it over and over again. I tried calling Adobe, but somehow they're always closed, even during their supposed hours of operation.

GIMP :: How To Stop Selecting Invisible Text

Jul 11, 2012

I'm having a bit of an annoying issue regarding the text tool. I have a bunch of text layers in an invisible layer group. When I try to create new text in a layer that's outside of this layer group, it will select an existing text layer located wherever I click -- even though the selected text layer is invisible and in another layer group. I simply want to create new text on a new layer wherever I click and not worry about selecting invisible text.

3ds Max :: Layers Take Too Long To Delete?

May 12, 2011

When i import a dwf it auto generates a layer for each piece of geometry in the file. There is no way to merge the layers during import that i know of.

So i just select every object and place them into the default layer0... takes 20 seconds.

Now i want to cleanup all the unused empty layers so i can make new layers later on. When i select the first layer... then SHIFT click the last layer 3dsmax lags then freezes.

When i do this same thing in 2010 the layers select properly... but once i hit delete 3dsmax freezes again! Now i know 3dsmax.. even if it freezes as long as its using any form of cpu its just processing. So i waited OVER-NIGHT just to delete a bunch of layers, and it worked! Deleting the layers one by one take 30seconds each... not going threw a thousand layers like that!

My questions: Why does deleting or even selecting a bunch of layers take a very very long time? Or even deleting one layer take a long time when theres alot of layers? Anyway to make this faster?

Maya :: Cannot Delete Render Layers

Nov 4, 2011

I created some render layers by copying the master layer and some of them seem to be connected to the master layer in some way and I cannot delete them!

When I select the render layer they are grey and the master layer is also selected and is blue. I cannot delete the copied layer even if I empty it.

I have created other layers the exact same way but when I select them they are not attached to the master layer and are blue when I select them and I can delete them.

What do I have to do to delete the layers that seem to be connected to the master layer? This is really annoying! I try to do one thing and end up spending the entire day trying to delete rogue render layers! The only work around I found is to select everything in the scene and export it and then import it into a new scene.

AutoCad 2D :: How To Delete Unwanted Layers

Jul 25, 2012

I have imported a dxf file from our Trimble handheld unit. The dxf has layers built into it that come straight from the trimble software. (ei, FENCE, TANK, WELL HEAD, FIELDLINE) I have custom built layers and linetypes for my .dwt file in Cad so I dont need the layers that followed the dxf file.

For some reason I am unable to delete those layers, I get a warning box saying:
The following layers cannot be deleted:

. layers 0 and Defpoints
. The current Layer.
. Layers containing objects.
. Xref-dependant layers

I am not on the current layer, I am pretty positive there is no objects on the layers I want to delete ( i have deleted my gps points and blocks that were imported)

I am not using any xref dwg's

GIMP :: Why Can't Cut (delete) A Selection

Mar 13, 2013

I 'open as layers' an image (a .bmp if that matters), use the rectangle-select tool to outline a portion of the image, then press Delete (or click Edit/Clear), expecting that my selection will be erased, but instead it deletes the entire picture.

I've been at this for an hour. "They" say that doing the same thing again and again and expecting a different result is evidence of insanity...

GIMP :: How To Delete Random Pixels

Apr 7, 2013

I'm working on a very small scale, and need to find a way to make an image which consists of 4 colors, randomly spread around the 16x16 pixels.

I have not been abel to get the desired affect with any of the noise filters, so I was thinking I could make 4 layers, one with each color, delete the parts I don't want and just merge them down.

Now, with such a small scale, I could do the work by hand, but I have to repeat the process at least a dozen times, and I want it to look truly random.
