Photoshop :: Can't Select Multiple Layers (Shift-Left Click)

Jul 31, 2004

I know this problem is really simple, but I just can't seem to get it to work. I should be able to left-click on a layer, hold in the shift key while left-clicking on a layer further down the list to select multiple layers. It doesn't work, I can't even get the (Alt-Left Click) command to work, allowing me to select individual layers.

Both these commands work in Image Ready and Flash just fine.

I have checked the keyboard settings, but I am not really sure what to look for - nothing seems out of the ordinary.

AutoCad :: Shift Select To Select Multiple Objects?

May 15, 2008

Right now, when i click one object and then another, the first object becomes deselected. Holding shift is the only way for me to select multiple lines right now (other than dragging of course) but that's not what I'm used to and it annoys me a lot. At first everything is fine but then after a while it does this without me changing any options at all.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Can't Use CTRL Or SHIFT To Select Multiple Things (not Really DWG Related)

Sep 4, 2013

So this really doesn't have much to do with objects in a drawing. Say for instance, I go into the PURGE dialogue box, and I want to select multiple layers to purge, but not all of them. If I click a layer, and the hold CTRL and click other layers, the only one that stays highlighted is the one I just clicked...so using CTRL doesn't allow me to highlight multiple entities at the same time.

It's gets a little more weird using SHIFT. The conventional SHIFT method (works in Windows Explorer and other applications) is clicking an object, holding SHIFT, and then clicking another object further down the list...this will highlight both of those entities clicked, plus every single entitiy in between them. In AutoCAD (use the PURGE dialogue box again for reference), if I click an object, hold SHIFT and click an object down the list, it will highlight the last object clicked and everything in between the two, but it will deselect the original object. Also, if I use SHIFT to select multiple objects, and then go back to the original that was deselected and hold CTRL to select it, the last object that was selected using SHIFT gets deselected.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Unable To Select Multiple Grips Using Shift / Pick In Drawing

Mar 29, 2012

I have a drawing where i am not able to select multiple grips using shift/pick to make the grips "hot".  I'm not able to make even one of the grips of a poly line "hot".  However, while trying to solve the problem, i've opened another drawing where i AM able to make grips "hot".  It doesn't appear to be a system setting issue.

Photoshop Elements :: How To Click On Layers Palette To Select Item To Move

Jul 15, 2013

I use PSE9 for digital scrapbooking.  Lately, when I have several pictures and elements on the page, I have to click on the Layers Pallette to select an item to move.  If I don't click on another item, the item I have just selected will move when I move my mouse.  I used to be able to click on an element or picture on the page and move it.

Photoshop :: Click-and-drag To Select Multiple Points In Puppet Warp?

Jun 20, 2013

Puppet Warp is a great tool. But sometimes I want to isolate an area and only rework that spot, while keeping everything else in place. To do this I have to go around clicking everything to pin it down. I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically pin all possible points, or click-and-drag to create pins at all intersecting points of the web.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Shortcut Menus Mouse Buttons (CRTL+Right Click And SHIFT+Right Click)

Feb 15, 2013

I have two menus that I use often and I would like to add them to my mouse buttons. Attached is a picture of the two menus I like and the two buttons. The Shift + Click has the correct menu already (Osnap menu2) my problem is adding my custom menu to the CTRL + Click doesn't work. I labeled Osnap Menu 1 and 2, 1 being the custom menu I have use in the past and 2 being the default osnap menu that comes with the cui file. How to get the second button to read my menu rather than both read the same osnap 2 menu?

Same thing happens when i left click on all the tools on the tools menu, just used the pen tool as an example.

Lightroom :: Command Click To Select Multiple Folders - No Longer Works

Mar 11, 2012

A couple of things that seem to be missing in LR4. In all previous versions of LR, I could select non contiguous folders (or collections or a mix of the two) by holding down the Command key (using a Mac). That doesn't work in LR4. Also, when I create virtual copies (which I also do all the time), the copies lose the name of the original. They are simply name "copy 1."

GIMP :: Select Multiple Layers Easily?

Aug 31, 2012

In Inkscape, you can select multiple objects by simply using the Selecttool and putting a box around the objects. I unwittingly did the samething in Gimp. I chose the Select tool (R) and selected several images inone column. I thought, that I would see all the boxed-in layers selectedfor easy duplication, but nope.

So how can I quickly/easily select a box-full of layers at once, a laInkscape?

GIMP :: Select / Copy / Paste Multiple Layers?

Dec 11, 2011

Using GIMP 2.6.11 under Windows XP

Is this real? I am really amazed that there is no way to do this. Am I missing something? I have multiple images, each with a unique background layer. On top are multiple other layers, both images and text layers. I was editing one and was about to save it but then realized it was on the wrong background.

All I want to do is select four or five layers from this unsaved image with Background A, copy them and then open an image with Background B and paste them in so there will be minimal issues with alignments and such. I have been editing each of these four layers and there are a fair bit of changes that have been made to just throw them away and start over. The background is not the only difference between the images, it is just what I use as a reference so copying that over to the unsaved image would also require multiple layer copy/pasting.

I have already tried linking the layers but any copy/cut/paste seems to only work on the active layer, unless I am again missing something. This seems like a really fundamental function to not be supported.

Illustrator :: Select Multiple Objects On Layers Panel In CC?

Mar 11, 2014

i have a guge artwork and i need to select a small groups (around 10-100) of objects from about 4000 overlayed objects and then group'em/split-to-layers for usability (This is a human body infographics for medical institute) There IS NO way selecting them from canvas because they are overlayed, and sometimes not visible at all. in CS5 there was a feature to select multiple objects by Alt+drag selection icon on the most right in the Layers Panel. Now the duplication mode turns-on when i try to perform it. So.. Ho do i select multiple object without need to click through thousands of them? (i need drag-select)

Photoshop :: Disable Left Mouse Click With Pen

May 25, 2012

I have a tablet and I am trying to change brush size and hardness with the pen but I keep creating new layers.  Is there a way to turn this off because I would like it to flow better.  With the mouse if I ctrl+alt +left mouse is gives me a new copy of my layer.  With the pen I get the pressure/size to come up but it is fickle and mostly just resorts to creating a new layer copy which is what I want to disable so it just does the brush size/hardness option. It seems the left mouse click doesn't display in any keyboard shortcuts.

Photoshop :: CS6 - Left Click Mouse Button Way Too Touchy

Jul 31, 2012

When holding down the left mouse button in the scroll bar area for just a fraction of a second too long, the scroll bar moves several positions. In the past, it wasn't this touchy. It's so touchy that it's impossible to CONSISTENTLY click once and make the scroll thingy move just one position. In previous versions, it works like a charm. Is there a way to adjust this mouse issue?
 
I use it on every image for cloning so that I can check one section at a time. For this reason, I've now gone back to CS5, but also because CS6 crashes on me and it sometimes gets stuck on Auto Saving files (possibly because they're big).

Photoshop Elements :: Tilt Shift In Guided Edit Does Not Change When Click On Icon

Just getting used to elements 11 - the tilt shift in the guided edit does not change when I click on the icon, then click and drag.  I am sure I am following instructions correctly, but nothing changes when I try to rezone the area I wish to have showing without blur. I could do in operation in the expert mode, but it should work in guided edit.

Photoshop Elements :: Tool Over Distracting Element And Left Click

Oct 28, 2012

I've been using PS and PSE since 2003 so I'm not what you'd call a new PSE user.  I upgraded to PSE9 a few years ago but now I can't get the clone stamp to work correctly. I keep getting black spots on the distracting elements that I want to remove.  I've gone through Scott Kelby's PSE9 book a million times but still can't get the tool to work correctly.All I get are the black spots. I'm working on photo submissions and time is running out.  Here's what I'm doing. 
 
1)  First I select the Clone Stamp tool and then the brush size I want to use (usually around size 45)
 
2)  Then, I sample the area just to the left of the distracting element that I want to remove.  (I use Alt + left click)
 
3)  Then I run the tool over the distracting element and left click.  But instead of getting my sampled area clone, I get a black spot.
 
I thought that maybe I was using too big of a brush but that's not the case.  So, what the heck am I doing wrong or is there some kind of an update or tool that will allow me to remove distracting elements more easily?
