I have been working on a layered PSD file putting together a website visual for a few weeks. Yesterday I went to save a copy of the document and in that process the file went a bit weird and some text changed colour and 5 layers had a portion of them deleted (all photos in the header area, like in the attached image). It's happened twice since yesterday, but can't seem to recreate it.

I got the below warning today for one of my AI files that I was working on yesterday. The file had several layers that had been worked on for a number of days. I know that I shut the application down correctly yesterday, but the warning states otherwise. I had another file open yesterday and it is fine. In this file, all of my layers, except for 4 incomplete layers are now gone! I had saved the document several times yesterday, but it is showing none of those saved changes. Is there a way that I can get my file back?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI currently working on a drawing which has previously been drawn by somebody else. I probably have 10 different layers within the drawing. However in my layer properties manager I have 37 all of which are turned on unlocked etc. When I try to purge theses layers are not deleted. Is there any reason why I can see theses layers and more importantly erase them?
View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to "lock" layers so that they cannot be deleted or purged from a drawing?
I have a template with all titleblocks, layers, dim styles, and such, all set up. But since there are a small group of layers that are not actually used in the drawing or template they are "purgable" or "deletable". As far as I understand locking the layer locks the geometry to keep it from being edited so it will not work for what I am thinking.
Ive been working on a piece of art for about a week when suddenly i was having some computer issues. I restart my computer and open up my gimp file and a file that previously had three layers now has one layer. The other layers where seemingly deleted, and i don't know why. Ive read another thread on here that was dealing with the same issue yet none of problems or solutions applied to my problem. This did happen one time before and all the layers were deleted, but i just started the project over again. The art i lost was being licensed, and I'm sort of freaking out.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a number of layout tabs with varying layer controls applied in multiple viewports. This layout may be made up of a number of xrefs. I end up with a lot of layers in the host drawing from the xrefs, and even after I purge the xrefs to eliminate some of the xrefs, the layers remain in the host drawing, even though they no longer exist.
Is there any way to update the xref definitions to get rid of the layers without losing the layer setups I have? VISRETAIN is set to 1, and if I reset it to 0, I will lose all of the viewport controls I have put in place.
I found a lisp in an old post and I edited it alittle with my own layers to have it change to but when I use it, it doesn't deleted the extra layers. It says layer cannot be deleted. Below is part of the code that I am using, I didn't copy all of them since there are alot of layers in the lisp that I added. maybe I copied something wrong I am not sure.

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?
I've been working on a picture and, of course, have been using a lot of layers. Whenever I choose to put the drawing up for a while, I'll come back to it later and notice that all my layers are gone. Is there a way to save these layers?

What is the best way to remove these bands in Photoshop? Note: clone tool not satisfactory (causes fuzziness, blurring). Tried selecting the affected area(s) and using Gaussian Blur but bands are too wide. Same for Dust and Scratches.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy 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.
View 10 Replies View RelatedIn 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.
I have several lovely images with a partial green horizontal colour cast caused by very out of focus bars, (without cloning!)as shown here, across tigers head!

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

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI 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.
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.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThere 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.
I have a few layers and one overlay. I would like to be able to export all the layers to separate png's however can I do that with one persistent layer that is saved with every other one?
