Photoshop :: CS6 Layer Comps Not Saving Appearance Of Layers?

Mar 14, 2013

There is a bug in CS6 layer comps that does not save the appearance of layers which have had their layer style cleared.
 
Steps to recreate.
1. Create a black square in a new photoshop document.
2. Create a layer style on the black square and set the over layer color to red.
3. Create a layer comp and turn on "Appearance" tracking, then update the layer comp.
4. Clear the layer style for the square, it should now be black again.
5. Create a second layer comp also with "Appearance" tracking on, and update it.
6. Go back and forth between the layer comps, the layer should turn from red to black, and the layer style should disappear and reappear on the layer, in the layers panel.
7. Save and close the file.
8. Re-open the file
9. Go back and forth through the layer comps, both will show a red square. The layer style never gets cleared.

Photoshop :: Layers And Layer Comps Disappear In Palette But Can Bring Them Back

May 1, 2012

A lot of times I'll be working on multiple .psd files and as I'm moving between files I'll notice that all the layers & layer comps will disappear from their palette

[URL]
 
I can bring them back by doing something like clicking on the text tool and then clicking on a text item on the stage. It's annoying because it takes a couple of clicks for the palette(s) to redisplay.
 
Is this a bug or is there a setting in preferences that can control this?

Photoshop :: Layer Comps In CS6 32bit Bug?

Mar 6, 2013

I've only seen one thread that releates to this issue with no answer resolution.  I have a reoccuring but where my layer comps display with elements moved into different positions from when I last saved the comp (all layer comps are set to save Visibility, Appaearance and Position).

This seems to always happen when I re-open a document, and frankly I'm getting sick of going back and fixing photoshop documents after I save all my comps to files.  I can't imagine that this isn't a known issue or that others are not seeing the same thing.

Photoshop :: PSD Layer Comps Viewer Program?

May 21, 2012

Is there a PSD file viewer program that allows someone to toggle between Layer Comps so that one does not need the full blown Photoshop application to view layer comps in a Photoshop document or be limited to viewing only the default Layer Comp?

Photoshop :: Exporting Layer Comps To Files

Dec 5, 2012

I am trying to Export Layer comps to file to make a pdf of a 38 page document. When try to export to jpg or png the files are too small, even on the highest setting.
 
When I try to export to tiff or psd, it doesn't flatten the files and gives me files just as large as the master file.
When I try to export to pdf it creates very large files, that do not seem high quality.
 
Are there any more options or perhaps an additional script for exporting layer comps to files?

Photoshop :: 13.0.2 Update / Layer Comps Refresh

Dec 11, 2012

I'm experiencing strange layer comps behaviors since Photoshop 13.0.2 update, on an existing .psd file. If some comps are correctly rendered, some others are not refreshed: layers visibility is not updated, workspace seems to be frozen, using for instance the magnifier tool to zoom in/out renders a completely white workspace, and moving then my mouse pointer above it only refreshes its lower half part (a little bit more actually). Moreover, Photoshop CPU consumption becomes quite high as long as I stay on such composition (around 50% CPU instead of 2% compared to working comps).
 
I've tried to disable GPU from Photoshop preferences, Machine is a mid-2010 17" MBP w/ i7@2.66. No problem with the same .psd file before upgrading to 13.0.2..

Photoshop :: CS6 - Making JPEGs From Layer Comps / General Error Occurred

Feb 13, 2013

I keep getting this error message (see below) whenever I try to make jpegs from my layer comps using File-->Scripts-->Layer Comps from Files. This error always comes up after Photoshop gets through 2 or 3 comps. I often have to select only a few layer comps at a time to get it to make jpegs. I recently upgraded to Photoshop CS6.
 
Here is the message I get:
 
Error: General Photoshop error occurred. This functionality may not be available in this version of Photoshop. The object “layer comp 2054478963” is not currently available.

I have been doing so much research trying to figure this out. Either im missing something or its not possible.29571-saving-layers-seperate-files-one-persistent-layer

I ran across that post on this forum and that is exactly what i want to do (at end of post)Ive tried the LayerSaver jsx but it only allows selected layers and top layer and bottom background.

my bottom has to be transparent. I have an icon set that has a bottom group (that i can merge to layer) and a top group (that i can also merge to layer) and the middle contains my icons.

Photoshop :: How To Save A Document That Has Adjustment Layers Without Changing The Appearance

Nov 16, 2013

Basically I am making a new pattern of stars, so I created a 1000 by 1000 document, filled with black, added noise, then added an adjustment layer to thin out the noise and make it look like stars in space. It looks great!

How to save it without the effect changing. I tried flattening the image, and it messed up how I wanted it to look. I tried merging visible, that didn't work. I tried just saving it as a PNG, like I do with all my projects, but that didn't work. And defining a pattern did the exact same thing. I just want to have what I physically see on the screen save as is so I can use it with other things.

Photoshop :: Filter Effect And Layer Style In Same Layer Versus Separate Layers

Mar 18, 2013

I'm adjusting a photographic image and am using both a filter effect and a layer style in the same layer on a Smart Object.  I want to separate the two effects into two layers, so one layer has the filter effect (Nik) and one layer has the layer style (Color Overlay) (with the goal of merging/rasterizing the Nik filter effect with the Smart Object but keeping the layer style unmerged).  I can make two layers and move one effect without problem, but the visual result of each effect on a separate layer is quite different from having both effects in the same layer.   The Blend Mode for all my layers is Normal.  Within the Color Overlay panel, the blend mode is Linear Burn.
 
 Layer 1: a layer style and a filter effect, stacked
 
looks very different from....
 
Layer 2:  a layer style
Layer 1:  a filter effect

Photoshop :: CS6 Is Saving All Layers Into One?

Jun 17, 2013

I switched from CS5 to CS6 and now everything that I save, when I go back to it, it is merged into one layer. 

The layer box is checked in the save dialog.  The one thing that I did do was make a pdf of of the file also in the save as menu. 

I have done this a ton of times before in ealier versions and my files were never merged.  what is wrong?  I have put in hours of work and now I can't edit anything.  Can I get the layers back?

Photoshop :: Layers Disappear When Saving In CS6?

May 27, 2013

My layers disappear when I try to save in Photoshop CS6. They disappear when I get to the last step before saving(where you can select the quality and stuff). The effects stay, but they become kind of crappy. I was just working on some pictures one by one, and then suddenly, it started happening. I did nothing differently.Reinstalling didn't work either.

Photoshop :: CS4 Saving To PDF Destroys Layers

Mar 25, 2009

In CS3, there was an 'export to pdf' which just converted the PSD to PDF.

Now in CS4, the option is under 'save as'. The problem is when I am doing a job and want to get approval, I like to generate a low res PDF WITHOUT the option of 'preserving photoshop editing capabilities'. Otherwise, I get aa huge file.

The problem is, the document in Photoshop is now a PDF and although the layers are still showing in the layers pallet, if at that point, I do any more editing or just try to save it as a PSD, the image is automatically flattened, without any warning. I managed to lose all my work by saving AFTER I created the small PDF.
why has adobe chosen to change the working document to PDF? If I save as a jpg, the document remains as a PSD file. This is very frustrating. I much prefer the export to

PDF in the CS3 version.

If CS4 is doing this, it should at least generate a warning that all layers will be merged at that time.

Aug 26, 2011

Doing a ecommerce website, the client has sent through over 100 logo's that need to accompany the products.The logs sent are in all different sizes....but they are all named correctly I know how to get all the files into the one photoshop file within different layers, they still hold there file name within the layer naming at this point.

I can also get them within the right canvas size for saving so everything is within the right size im looking for but i need a quicker way to save each individual layer keeping the file name rather than pressing - shift + ctrl + alt + s a houndred times to save for web and also needing to rename all the files again

Photoshop :: Multiple Layers And Copy Merge Saving As PDF?

Mar 27, 2012

I need to make multiple duplications of the same layer. This will solve my problem, however after I get the results I want, if I merge the layers, it reverts to the look as if I only had one single layer again. This will also happen if I do not merge the layers but save it as a PDF to get it ready for print. This results in a very muddy/neutral results. I have tried to simply select the layers and copy as merge, select everything and copy merge into a new document, and flatten/merge the image. None of them worked and reverted the image to the original one layer look.

Photoshop :: Saving Layers As Separate Image Files?

Jun 24, 2013

I am trying to save all the layers I have in my PSD file as separate layers in a folder that I created.  I trying to do this by going to File- Scripts- Export Layers to Files but when I set it up and do this I get an error message saying:
 
"General Photoshop error occured.  This functionality may not be available in this version of Photoshop. -The command "Duplicate" is not currently available."
 
I am not sure why this is saying "this version" considering I installed  it not too long ago and the document has been made a few days ago meaning I never even used another version of photoshop.  I have all the layers visible too and even selected them.  I am using Photoshop CS6 by the way.

Photoshop :: Batch Saving Layers As Individual JPEGs?

Jan 4, 2012

I have assembled a wholel lot of scanned pages from my sketch pad into one psd file.  That file has guides which I use to register and align every page (each page is therefore its own layer).  Is there a way I can make an action and save off each individual layer as its own jpeg?  I set up an action but I don't know how to get photoshop to save it with a distinct namespace.  The first action I set up basically prompted me to re-name each layer as I saved it, which isn't really saving time.  What I want is for the action to start at the bottom layer and turn off the visiblity of all the layers above it, save the visible layer as a jpeg with a name based on  the layer and then turn on the next layer's visibitlity and repeat, until all layers have been saved.
