Photoshop :: Question: How To Seperate Each Color To An Individual Layer

Sep 9, 2006

I have been doing some work recently with stencils, which involves me using illustrator to do a cutout-type effect using the "live trace" function. It works very well for making stencils that I can enlarge many times. The problem I have encountered is with working with more than 3 layers- it is very hard to distinguish colors from each other, especially in more complex stencils, after they have been cut out.

I have been searching for an option (or seperate program) that would allow me to automatically separate the colors (there are never more than 15) onto individual layers, one color per layer.

Anyone know an easy way to do that?

GIMP :: GIF Image - Copy And Merge Selected Layer Over Every Other Individual Layer Automatically

May 1, 2011

I have a GIF image that I need to add something to, but I don't want to add it to every single individual layer. Is there a way to add it over or behind the entire GIF so that it remains static while the GIF's frames cycle - like a watermark or something?

Or if not, is there maybe a script-fu that copies and merges a selected layer over every other individual layer automatically, without messing them up?

I know I'll probably have to just end up manually adding it to each layer, (so many layers...).

Photoshop :: Editing Individual 3D Elements Within 3D Layer

Jul 10, 2012

I'm just testing out the new CS6 extended version and am on the trial period using a mac.
 
My problem is in editing the 3d objects I have imported. These were imported in 3ds format and contain numerous different elements (over 50) within the same file. All are neatly to scale and positioned correctly in relation to one another.
 
I need to be able to edit these individual elements within photoshop and assign different materials. I can't seem to separate these individual objects onto different layers in order to work with them further. In addition, although I can scale or move the elements, I cannot delete them without deleting the whole layer.
 
I have tried looking at merge 3D layers but as I only have one layer it doesn't work.How can I assign these objects to different layers without importing each element separately into photoshop (and therefore losing their scale and position)?

AutoCad :: How All Layers Have Linked To Layer 0 But Are Actually Individual

Mar 17, 2013

I have been given a set of plans by a client to design a system on. The plans have a lot of layers and information on them that I don't need/want to merge to a base layer. If I click on anything on the plans everything gets select and is layer 0. I originally thought these were just poorly made plans but if I go through the layers in the toolbar and turn them off individually it works.

Its like somehow all the layers have been linked to layer 0 but are actually individual layers .

AutoCad :: VPFreeze Individual Objects On Layer?

Oct 3, 2013

If I don't want to VP Freeze everything on that layer, is there a way to individually VP Freeze certain objects on one layer? (without having to make new layers?)

The sitch: Making a ceiling plan, some dims are needed in all the other plans, but some are not needed in the ceiling plan. How can I simply turn "off" in the VP the few separate Dims I don't need? And that they can still turn up like normal in all the other VPs?

Xara :: How To Move Or Edit Individual Objects All One Layer

Sep 12, 2011

I'm new at Xara Xtreme and I just bought a vector image from iStock. It says that the image can easily be edited. Here is the image [URL]....

I want to split things up and move each individual globe and put arrange them to my specifications. I can't figure out how to move or edit the individual objects, it's all one layer. Can this be done? For example can the globe with the numbers around it be moved to the left of the screen and the other four globes be removed? I know this can be done with technical skills, but can this be done by a beginer?

Photoshop :: Two Seperate Pics Together On One Canvas

Sep 15, 2007

I'm going prematurely grey over it. Here's what I've done so far.I've opened the two files for the pics I want. One is for the backgound image the other has a quick mask I've applied for the foreground. I opened a new file and enlarged the canvas size. Then tried to drop & drag the background image into the new canvas. That doesn't work. However when I drop & drag the one with the qick mask it will co-opertate but the pic grows far too large in the new canvas.

Photoshop :: Need Seperate Actions For Different Resolutions

Jul 9, 2008

I've got ton of 50mb tiffs I need to reduce to small jpegs and watermark.

But I made an action and the watermark looked great on some and microscopic on others.

The files that had a resolution of 4000 (from slides per scanner) were fine.

The files that were shot digital -- resolution of 240, watermark was microscopic.

So only solution is to make seperate actions correct? (what a hassle)

Seems so stange in that the files are all same size more or less in size and the resolution really only matters if you print the dang thing, which I'm not doing now!

AutoCAD Inventor :: Color Just One Individual Part On Drawing View?

Feb 7, 2012

I need to show a particular part in a drawing view so that it's clearly visible.  I mean, I can see it fine, but I would like it to pop out a bit more than it does and not blend in with other lines around it.  Is there anyway to do this?  I know you can make an entire view colored, but I just want one part colored within that view.

If not, then how do I remove the lighting from a particular view so that the parts will show as solid colors in a drawing view?  They currently show with like a white reflection or sheen and a sort of gradient coloring to them.

Photoshop :: Automate Multiple Images Into Seperate Layers In 1 File?

Jul 8, 2009

I'm an animation intern working for an animator who does things old school.

She gives me hundreds of animation cells to scan using her scanner into photoshop CS(nothing), using the scan utility in photoshop. the result, as we are doing it, is hundreds of separate image files. i then copy and paste each of these image files into another custom sized file as separate layers.

i know there must be a way to automate this or do it with an action, but i cannot figure it out. if you think this isn't possible with photoshop CS(nothing) i have CS3 available to me on my personal laptop.

Photoshop :: Reversed B&W Adjustment Layer / Export Color Channel To Layer

Mar 1, 2012

What I want to do is to have an adjustment layer that is a reversed, black and white image.  I initially thought to merge B&W and reverse adjustment layers, but read that an adjustment layer may not be the target of a merge.  Is the way to accomplish this to fiddle with the B&W adjustment layer sliders somehow?
 
I like how the black and white displayed image of a given color channel looks, how can I export that channel into a layer?

Photoshop :: How To Color Image With Special Color-layer Under It

May 29, 2013

I want to color a photo of a brown leather shoe by switching on a color layer under it. I need this because a website script works with 2 separate images/layers. The top layer must be a transparent png of the image (the brown shoe) and the layer under this is a solid color (or more colors). This way you can color a shoe by clicking a button on the webpage.

I tried it using a white shoe on a layer, setting the opacity to 80%, than I used 'Select Color Range' to select the leather of the shoe, than I deleted this selection. This way the shoe keeps the leather look but is kind of transparent. A colored layer under it 'paints' the shoe while you still see the leather texture on it.

Photoshop :: CS4 / How To Set A Color Using Color Balance Layer

Mar 24, 2013

I want to use a color balance layer with a vector mask to change the color of a shirt to come as close as possible to matching a particular color swatch. So, say the color swatch is  RGB, 101, 164, 33
 
The color balance has the 3 sliders and I can adjust:
 
cyan -> red
magenta -> green
yellow -> blue
 
Is there a way of converting the RGB values (or CMYK values) from the swatch that is not trial and error that will tell me where to set the 3 color balance sliders to match the swatch color?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Script That Assigns Lineweights To Layer Based On Color Of That Layer

Nov 19, 2013

Any script that when ran will set lineweights of a layer based on what color the layer is assigned.  For instance if I have 3 lines that are green on 3 different layers. I need the script to change all 3 layers lineweight   to .015mm. I have drawings that are inconsistant with layer names so layer translator and methods of that nature will not work because I do not know all the layer names and I have 100 drawings to do this to.

Photoshop :: Seperate Image Resize And Image Compression

Jun 13, 2008

I have completed a project and I need to verify that, based on what I implemented, image should be resized but quality of image (both JPEG and GIF) should not be reduced.

My question is it possible to verify the result using photoshop or some other tools? How?

My college said it is hard to check if an image looks different because of image resizing or because of quality loss or because of both. He said I have to create some log files to trace the result. It is a little too much work for me.
