Photoshop :: Layer Blending Option Mess With Other Layers Option
Oct 2, 2011
As you might see in layer panel. there is a blending option applying on text. and when i try to applying new blending option i-e drop shadow or inner shadow to layer shape 5. it will mess with also to text layer.
I have an inner shadow on a picture. What I would like to do is take that inner shadow and make it its own layer so i can use the same shadow to put over different pictures on a website.
I cannot stand it when I make a new layer in Illustrator and the color hint becomes yellow. This usually happens on the third new layer into every project. I can go in and manually change it from yellow to the ten plus other colors, but I just want yellow completely out of the list. It's awful to look at, and I think every other color is easier.
Im trying to make a transparent image that has a drop shadow only onto a menu. Its hard to explain but heres a picture. is there anyway of masking all of the drop shadow that doesn't land on the menu?
I've been working with photoshop for a couple of years now but I'm not a pro. Does anyone know how to use the "Create a new set" option at the Layers Palette and what is it for?
I've been aligning layers in Photoshop since the first day I aligned layers in Photoshop but I still can't figure out what logic is used to determine which layer(s) moves when multiple selected layers are aligned using one of the six alignment options.
The option to edit in Photoshop CS4 from Lightroom 4 and return is just fine. However, the option to Open images as layers in Photoshop is grayed out as well as the option to open as Smart Object or Merge.
I'm trying to create a transparent layer in Photoshop. I can't even find the option to make it. Whenever I make a new layer, it just comes out white. I'm using Photoshop CS3 extended.
I've just upgraded from Photoshop7 to CS2 and have noticed that the 'link' option have been removed from the 'Layer Window' (the little box which was next to the 'eye' that you could check to select certain layers and then manipulate those particular layers together like free transform, flatten etc.)
I normally use this feature alot and cannot find another way of doing it, is it possible to reinstate this feature or does anyone know a way of still doing this within CS2?
I just started using elements today and I am trying to learn things. On the picture I am working on when I go to adda layer or even a mask it is not allowing me to click on it.
In my previous version of Elements, I was able to duplicate a layer (which was a picture) and then drag and drop a new picture into that layer. How can I do this with Elements 12, since the drag and drop option doesn't work? Â I am using this for a "scrapbook" photo page, where there are multiple photos and text on the page.
There's a new feature where you can opt to drag a layer mask to the trash and NOT be prompted to "apply layer mask?". This also has the "do not show again" option -which I clicked by accident. So the default is now to apply layer mask when I drag a layer mask to the trash. I can't think of any way to restore the more traditional function, without restoring all other prefs.  So what I would like is a way to restore the more classic default where dragging a layer mask to trash give me the OPTION to apply or discard.
as an alternative to using the magic wand to remove a color to transparency (which leaves fine detail, say in a line drawing, in a very sorry state) i saw someone use the multiply function in layer options to remove all white from a greyscale image leaving black lines over transparency. neat,
I figured out how to use the layers option to fade an image into white for a Blackberry theme I'm making. After getting the hang of that, I figured I could try the same thing with a different image. But instead of opening up both images in different colors, both show up as the color of the first image. Both images are png files, the same file format that I used the first set of images for. I have not changed the size nor made anything transparent.

Inside After Effects, there is an option by selecting all the Layers and go to Keyframe assistance- Sequence Layers. Therefore you have all the layers overlapping each others the way you want without manually adjusting them, and you can create a Slide Show.I wonder If we can do that Inside Premiere Pro.
I don't now if this is the right forum, because Trapcode Particular is from Red Giant and not for Adobe, but.. I'm using After Effects CS6 and I installed Trapcode Particular. When I select layer emitter, I can't choose a layer. Under layer is no option to select layer.
Is there an option to move just a portion of a layer (with the Move, Scale, or Rotate tools, for example) without having to first copy the portion, then delete it, and then paste it as a whole new layer?
For instance, if you have a picture of a house and there's a tree off to the side, and you want to shrink the tree a bit so the house looks bigger. Currently, I would ( a ) copy the tree, ( b ) delete that selection, and ( c ) paste the tree as a new layer....and then finally (d) shrink that.
But could I simply select the tree and shrink it on the same layer?
How can I control the stack order of a shape layer with the path arrangement option on the shape tool options menu? It seems to me that this control does not do anything with shape layers ... does not control anything. How can I use this option?
When I go to do a dimension it changes to the dimension layer and then I have to change back to my object layer is there a way to turn this option off?
I have missed this completely, but is there any plan in PDN v4.0 to make a 'solo layer' option? I have no problem with just un-ticking all the other layers, but it can get a little tedious when working with many layers .
I am having the darndest time figuring out what I'm not understanding with this, "bug". (I call it a bug because it seems to be one, imo.) Â Specs: Mac OS X 10.75 Creative Suite 5, Photoshop 5.1 Â "Issues": If I adjust paragraph settings, like indents, in one file, those options do not return to default when I start a new file. Thus, I find myself wondering why I have such large gaps between lines of copy or to the left, etc. when I start a new text layer. (This actually happens not only in new files, but in new layers - the latter is slightly more understandable in that it's the same file.)
When a lightbuld goes on for me: "Check your type settings." And, lo-and-behold, there things are: space before or after a paragraph; right or left indents. All settings that used to be cleared when a new file - or a new layer - are opened. This is excruciatingly annoying.If I apply a layer style (e.g., drop shadow) to a shape layer, and then I create another shape layer, the latter one automatically gets all the same style settings applied. That is, the new layer has the all the same layer styles applied to it by default. Meaning, I have to then delete those as they are often not what I intend. Â
In any case, it used to be that I could choose what I want my own new files and layers to look like, not have previously used settings automatically applied.
