Illustrator :: Gradient Mesh - Unable To Select All Points That Are The Same Color?

Sep 20, 2012

All I can find online is to highlight over an area to select multiple mesh points. That will not work in my case. I can't tell illustrator to select same color, the way it does with fills and strokes? I want to change the color and I have to click on every single point again? Ridiculous.

Photoshop :: Can Not Select Layers - CS3

Mar 1, 2008

I am using the 30 day trial version of CS3 before I buy. I have been using Elements for years.

I have a PSD file that was sent to me. In elements I can click on any item in the file and move, delete etc.

But in CS3 I can not do that. I have to go to layers and find the layer I am looking for, click on it in the layer list and then I can go to the image and manipulate it.
Is this just the way it works in CS3 or do I need to flip a switch somewhere.

Photoshop :: Can't Select Layers With Transparency

Apr 4, 2013

1. I can no longer nudge grouped layers. Photoshop complains that it cannot nudge layers in a group.
 
2. When I try to move a layer selected in the layer panel (or selected via ctrl-alt-right click), a click on the layer selects the layer effect above instead.It seems like there is some kind of click through enabled. If I click on a transparent part of the layer, the layer below get selected instead.
 
My first thought was that this had something to do with "Auto-select layer/group", but it's disabled. how can I go back to normal mode, so I can click anywhere in a layer, transparent or not, and move the items in it etc?(I'm using Photoshop CS6.)

Photoshop :: Select Items Without Layers

Dec 8, 2008

In Photoshop CS3... I have several items on their own layer. Is there away to select these items without having to find their specific layer.

Is there a tool to select the items I want on my page, thus Photoshop automatically selects their associated layer?

Photoshop :: How To Select Bottom Layer Of 2 Or More Layers

Oct 2, 2012

This has baffled me that photoshop does not do this. But why can't I not ctrl+click on a layer and get to the layers underneath that layer? No matter how many times I ctrl+click the layer to select it, it just selects the same topmost layer.

It is interupting my workflow majorly and it is really frustrating when using a lot of texture overlays to have to hide them and then ctrl+click to find where the layer is that I want to work on. Right clicking on my document just brings up all layers in my document no matter where my mouse is.

This is what shows when I right click: [URL]....

Photoshop :: Way To Select Matching Pixels On 2 Different Layers?

Jul 10, 2013

If I shoot 2 different portraits (of 2 different people), against the same background (a complex one not a backdrop), using a locked frame on a tripod, giving me the same exact background in both pictures, with only the portraits changing.
 
If I then take these 2 pictures, and create layers out of them in the same Photoshop document, and align them perfectly on top of each other.
 
Is there a way (action, plugin, script, etc...) to select the pixels that did not change between the 2 layers? In other words, the pixels that create the background of both pictures? And would it make it easier if I shoot the background alone, and then the portraits, and then follow the same steps?

Photoshop :: Auto-Select Is Selecting Hidden Layers In CC

Jun 18, 2013

I use auto-select primarily when designing. I will often clicking and dragging a marquee box to select multiple objects. I immediately noticed that it is now selecting hidden layers as well, where it didn't before.
 
Is there a setting or way to change this? I am assuming as of now that this is a new change. They will still select even if the layers are locked so locking groups is not a solution for this.

Photoshop :: How To Resize Select Layers To Specific Inches

Apr 30, 2012

I', using CS4 on Windows 7. I'm making a 24x36 poster with lots of images on it. Each image is it's own layer. Some of the images are too big and I need to make them smaller.

Instead of just using Control+T and holding shift to make them smaller, I'd like to be able to specify in inches what the resized image should be (like 5" wide for example). Is there a way to do this? I see the % boxes, is there something similar for inches? I can't figure it out. I've got Options turned on under Windows.

Photoshop :: How To Select Locked Layer When Too Many Layers Overlapping

Sep 6, 2013

How to select a locked layer when you have too many layers overlapping?
 
I know I can select all the layers, lock them and unlock them. But I can't lock/unlock all layers when some layers are hidden. I'll have to dig in to unhide those layers. But then I don't want to unhide all layers, because it will make changes to my design that I wouldn't know.
 
Is there a smart way to find/select the lock layer?

Photoshop :: CMD / Mouse Drag To Select All Layers That Are Within Area

Jun 24, 2013

In previous versions of PS you used to be able to press CMD (i'm mac based) and drag the mouse to select all the layers that are within the area you drag to.
 
This is great for sorting out files, grouping layers etc as you can lock/hide layers as you go. Problem now is that in Photoshop CC it also selects locked and invisible layers - which didn't use to happen so actually its completely ruined this method.

Photoshop Elements :: Select Pixels To Copy In Layers?

Mar 9, 2014

I have a photo open in Expert with a blank layer above it.  I selected the quick selection tool and drew a complete circle around the object I want to copy from this photo and to paste the selected area to the layer.  However, I get a pop up box stating that the copy command cannot be completed because no pixels we selected.
 
I followed book and online instructions on selection tool uses while in Layers and can't seem to get past this pop up box.

Photoshop :: Selecting Layers With Move / Select Tool Is Imprecise (CS6)

Aug 23, 2012

i switched from CS5 to CS6 Extended (Win 7 64bit) and I'm a little bit confused about the select/move tool (V). I have "automatic selection" activated and when I click on a layer, Photoshop often selects a nearby layer but not the one I'm clicking at - often the layer selected is more on top of the layer I was planning to select, but that was no problem in CS5 ... Is there anything I can change in the settings or is this behavior "normal"?
 
For example - a cursor placed at the marked position selected the white arrow-vector-shape.

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.

Photoshop :: Auto-select In CC Selects Layers Within Locked Or Hidden Groups?

Jun 24, 2013

i can't be the only one who thinks it's nuts that when 'auto-select > layers' is selected and i drag to select a bunch of layers, i also select layers that are turned off and/or locked, can i?i just confirmed that this IS not the case with CS6 -- locked or hidden layers are not selected upon dragging to select exposed layers.
 
is this a bug, or a bit of new functionality that i am failing to grasp? i did notice that in CC, on right-click there is the new option to "isolate layers", but this seems to just isolate & unclutter layers within the layers panel.
