Photoshop Elements :: Getting Separate Movable Text Elements In Single Layer?

Dec 20, 2013

Is there any way to have more than one text placement inside of a single layer, but be able to maintain and move each of those separately from the others?   From what I have seen, each new Text item gets its own new layer.   If I want to document an image with seven points of reference, it's absolutely crazy that I have to maintain seven layers, each with an integer 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7.   What would be much more maintainable is to create ONE layer and name it "MAP-NUMBERS" and then have seven integers placed into that one layer.   I would then want to be able to move - say - "2" around separately from "4".   Then making all of the numbers appear or disappear becomes as easy as hiding or showing one layer.
 
Is there a way to do this with any version of Photoshop?

Photoshop Elements :: How To Move Elements Of Painting To Separate Layer

Nov 24, 2013

I would like to move elements of that painting onto a separate layer.   What is the best way to do this?   An example of this would be a painting with the moon in a night sky.   I might want to move that moon object into a separate layer.
 
My reason for wanting to do this is I want to change the background of the painting without worrying about doing fine details around the objects I am moving. A second benefit of moving the objects to a layer is that I can then easily move the location of those elements in the painting around, trying to reposition them.
 
can I get all of the elements I am moving onto a SINGLE layer AND still have the ability to move those elements around separately?  If I want to move 10 elements in a painting to a separate layer, it is REALLY inconvenient to have to put those into 10 separate layers and constantly maintain naming of these different layers.

Photoshop Elements :: How To Separate Shadow Into A New Layer To Work

Mar 9, 2013

I'm using elements 11.  I'm trying to separate shadow into a new layer to work it.  When I copy and past layer style into new layer, FX icon appears next to new layer, but no shadow.  My settings are visable.  I can see the shadow in the original image, just can't separate it into new layer.   It seems like I'm missing something simple.  Is this possible in Elements 11?

Photoshop Elements :: Selection Not Appear On Layer - Background Is Feathered

May 1, 2013

I am trying to move a feathered photo (using cookie cutter)  from the Elements screen to a  colored page word document. I can move it OK. It is feathered. But it still has a   square white background surrounding the feather. When I look at the Layer panel , the transparent  added layer is showing nothing. The selection did not appear on the layer. But the background  is feathered.

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 :: Why Vector Selection Tool (white Arrow) Change Layer Selection To Another

Sep 1, 2013

I have been continually annoyed, when creating a vector mask-heavy document, with trying to select vector mask points by dragging a rectangle only to find that it instead selects a layer higher up which has a larger vector mask.
 
The only workaround is to manually select the points of my mask or to drag a rectangle from outside the canvas, meaning I have to zoom out or scroll to the edge - sometimes annoying if I am zoomed in quite far.
 
I know that the move tool can be set to automatically select a layer, depending on what part of the image is clicked, but why is there not an option to turn this off for vector editing?

Photoshop :: Separate Shadow From Layer

Nov 23, 2008

Can somebody tell me the method of separating a shadow from a layer where you added that shadow ?

I haven't use this technique in years, but wanted to try this, and now cannot seem to do it. I remember way back, there was a simple command to accomplish this, and it seems to no longer exist.

Photoshop :: Recording What's On Screen In CS5 On Separate Layer

May 4, 2012

Is there any way to record a Photoshop maneuver like airbrushing onto an otherwise transparent layer so the end result is an animation?The real world equivalent of what I'm trying to do would be to have a video camera behind glass and a spray can spraying the glass from the other side.
 
I know there are programs that record what's on screen but I don't think they allow you to have a transparent layer. I may be able to use one of those programs and key out the non airbrush background. I'd like to be able to import the animation into Premiere so it looks like paint has been sprayed over whatever clip is underneath the airbrushing frames.

Photoshop :: Move Image On Its Separate Layer Or Combined?

Feb 7, 2013

I am using Creative Suite 5.5 on my MacBook Pro...and today had issues demonstrating the simple process of dragging one person/image onto another, applying a quick mask to do some simple morphing.
 
But...one, I couldn't drag the image from the internet and drop onto the project, but had to go to Edit and copy, then create a new file and hit paste.  Placing one image side by side to another...I was not able to drag the image of one person to drop onto the other.  I either had to use the marquee tool, drag around the image, copy and paste or...found I could drag the image from its layer in the layer's palette and drop onto the project.
 
More frustrating was that once I had both images in the same project, I was not able to move the new person/image added to locate in right position over the background person/image.  I would drag it to that new location, and it would snap back to the original location.  Obviously the need to take any image added and move it around to orchestrate your image is important.
 
I have asked a number of artist friends, checked the mode (both images are RGB) and both images at 8 bits...
 
I presume it is a simple command that will release the image to stay where located using the Move tool...but am not familiar enough with Suite 5.5 obviously.

Photoshop :: Linking Adjustment Layer To Two Separate Layers

Jan 3, 2013

I am wondering if there is a way to create an adjustment layer that only affects two layers that are spread apart. What I'd like to be able to do is change the color of both layers at the same time.

The problem is, I can't group the layers together and add an adjustment to the group because one of the layers (Number Color Flare) has to stay on top of the rest.

Photoshop :: How To Add Logo/filename To The Image, As A Separate Layer

Aug 30, 2006

way to automate the process of adding my company name and most important file name to the image. What I want to do is, before sending a preview to the client, to put my company logo and name of the file directly on the image, let's say in the right and left lower corner of the image. My clients usually want to print the images and have the file name right in front of them so that after they choose the image they can tell me which of the versions/files they like, without going back to computer and looking for the file name there.

Photoshop :: Healing Brush - Clone Stamp When Used On Separate Layer?

Aug 24, 2013

When using the Healing Brush tool in Normal mode, the opacity of the cloned pixels when painted onto the same layer as the source pixels will usually be decreased to blend better, BUT if the cloned pixels are painted onto a separate layer (to work non-destructively) the tool will NOT decrease opacity and the Healing Brush will work more like (if not exactly like) the Clone Stamp - true??

Photoshop :: How To Save A Layer Including Blended Multiply Effect Separate From Background

Feb 21, 2012

I have a very simple PSD, so i'll try to explain this super simply..
 
 one transparent layer, with just a pair or eyebrows, with the only added blend effect as 'multiply'
 
one background with a face, no eyebrows.
 
the layer blends the eyebrows in to the background face perfectly.
 
i want to save the layer as a separate file keeping the tranparency and including the result of the multiply effect, without the background.
 
the reason why i want to do this may confuse things, but basically i want several different eyebrow colours to be interchangeable over this face in an application that doesn't recognise the blending link with the background, so i want to save it in PS !

Is there a way to have separate objects in 1 layer, what i mean is that if you paste something, that i want it to show up as a objects in de layer, like in photoshop, so i can still drag it around.
