Photoshop :: Partially Locked Layer But No Icon Highlighted Under Lock

Jul 7, 2013

1. I try to use any auto correction such as tone, and nothing appears to change

2. I see the small layers 'background' icon flashing as I do this into the black and white check pattern

3. It seems that the layer background is partially locked- (when I scroll my mouse over the 'lock' icon this is written)

Yet there is no icon above in 'lock' that is highlighted. So I cannot unlock it.I am able to adjust in all other methods which are not auto corrections. Perhaps I changed some settings accidentally?

AutoCAD 2013 :: Turn Off Lock Symbol When Running Crosshairs Over Locked Layer

Mar 29, 2012

How to turn of the "lock symbol" from showing when you run your crosshairs (outside of a command) over a locked layer.  Its annoying and i would like to turn it off.

Also, when offsetting a line, is there a way to turn off the imaginary offset line that indicates the offset side, again its annoying and i'd like to turn it off.

Photoshop :: Partially Locked?

Jun 3, 2008

I have a file that someone created and one of the layers says that it is 'Partially Locked'.

I never had delt with this before and was wondering how I go about unlocking it.

Double Clicking it, like I do with locked layers, only brought up the layer style property box.

Photoshop :: Selecting Highlighted (not Top) Layer

Sep 21, 2012

Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere.  If I have a psd file with 10 layers, sometimes I want to quickly move an element around but, regardless of what layer I'm working on, or which layer is selected, my "selection tool" will grab whatever layer is the top one, or the whole "group" is the layer is in one, instead.  So, usually, I have to reorder my layers to make the adjustment and then reorder them again.

Jun 5, 2013

I only have one layer in the document - it is not locked.  I have already tried locking it, unlocking it, creating new layers, locking/unlocking those.I am not able to access Object>Unlock All.
 
I have done Hide All Layers/Show All Layers - so there is nothing hidden..I have even opened a previous project, and it has the same symbol on it and none of these methods of correcting it works either.  It printed fine on Friday.
 
When I create an entirely new document, the icon is still there.

Photoshop :: Why Is Layer 1 Locked In Every New Document

Oct 22, 2013

What is/are the benefits of having every background layer of a newly opened document locked? I have never come across a need for it and wish it wasn't. It only means I have to create a new layer and import an image to that. Or, double click the layer to unlock it. Is there a way to permanently eliminate that "preference?" It's like entering a room with your shoes tied together.

Photoshop :: Locked Layer - How To Unlock

Mar 13, 2013

one layer in a photoshop document has a padlock on it; no clue how it got there. I can't make it go away; perhaps the method is different in CS6 than in previous versions...
 
Any clue about this? I can't fill a selection on this particular layer...don't  know why. The layer in question IS selected, and the selection is active, etc.

Photoshop :: Problem With Locked Layer...

Jun 9, 2006

I'm attempting to finish some artwork, and I seem to have run into a problem. I duplicated a layer--filled with white--and locked the transparent pixels in the duplicated layer. When I try to color over it, there are some white pixels showing about the edges. Inexplicably, these white pixels don't even seem to be in the layer that I'm trying to color at all--but the original layer underneath. When I hide the original layer, the white pixels disappear. What's going on?

Photoshop :: CS6 32bit Image - Locked Background Layer?

Jun 22, 2013

In Photoshop CS6 why can't I unlock the background layer in a 32 bit image as you used to in CS5?

I only seam to find answers as "change it to 16 bit" but that's not a solution. In previous versions of Photoshop you were able to composite images in 32 bit.

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?

AutoCad :: How To Lock The Layer

Jun 10, 2012

I am in 2D mode in autocad, drawing a plan. I have locked one layer and also increased the translucency, jet my snaps still respond to the objects in this layer, where all I want to do is keep it as an underlay while I draw the rest of the things. The objects within this locked layer are also selectable, they come up with doted lines once selected, but I can't edit or move them, because the layer is is locked.

Is there a way to lock the layer, so that it is completely ignored by snaps and selection, jet kept visible with little transparency?

I am using AutoCad 2013, and there are only blocks within this layer.
