Photoshop :: Reordering Layer Groups?

Sep 11, 2013

When I try to move layers or groups under an open layer group, it ends up inside that group instead. For example:Drag Group 3 between Group 1 and Group 2. It ends up inside Group 2, below Layer 2.Drag Group 3 between Background and Group 1. It ends up inside Group 1, below Layer 1.The only workarounds are:Close the layer group.Use Cmd-[ to move it "down" once more.

It seems to me there should be a more intuitive way to move layers, based on the indentation of the groups. Dragging a layer on a divider in the green area should move it at the top level, above background.Dragging a layer in the blue area should move it inside Group 1.Dragging a layer in the magenta area should move it inside Group 2.

Dragging a layer in the orange area should move it inside Group 3.The appropriate section of the divider should highlight to indicate where the layer will end up (currently the entire divider is highlighted)

GIMP :: Layer Reordering With Multiple Images

Jul 24, 2013

I usually import several image frames using the 'Open as layers' command. However, I notice that my layer are always ordered in the reverse manner. For instance, when I import 700 images as layers, image number 700 is assigned as layer 1 and image number 1 is assigned as layer 700. Is there a way for me to completely reverse this layer ordering?

GIMP :: Layer Modes Don't Work In Layer Groups?

Jan 20, 2014

For the projects I'm working on, I use the same template beneath the different layer groups of each different project. When I move a "color" layer into the group, however, it doesn't show up like it's supposed to. It behaves as if the 'color' layer is a blank layer, and has no effect. Is there any way to get this to work or?...

ALSO: I can't open images by URL.

GIMP :: Layer Groups And Layer Modes / Opacity?

May 14, 2012

I just downloaded GIMP 2.8 (on Windows 7) and was using the layer groups to organize a project I'm doing. I noticed that whenever I put the layers into the layer group, nothing I do to them actually affects the image (for example if I change the opacity of the layer, it doesn't actually change). If I drag them out of the layer group they function perfectly; sometimes if I edit them and then drag them into the group they also work fine.

As I was writing this post I tested dragging a layer set to "dodge" into the group and it didn't work. It kept the dodge setting, but it looked as if it was on normal; however, I drug another layer set on dodge into the group and it worked fine.

Is this feature just broken on Windows, or does it not work like I thought (where you can drag them in and edit them individually, or edit them all by editing the layer group itself)?

GIMP :: Can Layer Groups Be Opened In Photoshop

Nov 9, 2012

I have a image that has many layers that are grouped by folders and I've just exported it to .psd and after opening the exported file to check it, I see that the Group Layers cannot be opened. I've also tested this in an on-line Photoshop program (I can't install the actual Photoshop in my computer).

Photoshop :: How To Toggle Visibility For A Layer Group And All Its Sub-groups

Sep 1, 2012

As I am using Layer Comps more frequently, i find myself frequently needing to toggle the visibility of layer groups, which contain several sub-groups. I tried all the shift + cmd + option - click variations, but none seems to do the trick.
 
here an example:
 
Visibility           Type           Name
OFF                Group         Row
ON                  Group         Button 1
OFF                Text            Help!
OFF                Shape         Bg
ON                  Group         Button 2
OFF                Text            Help Please!
OFF                Shape         Bg
 
so what i am looking for is a short-cut so that when i click on the visibility of the Group Row, it will turn on the visibility of all the layers contained.

Photoshop :: Transforming / Flipping / Rotating Layer Groups In CC

Photoshop :: Merge And Export Layer Groups Separately Into JPGs Via Script?

Jun 26, 2013

I’m trying to take several layers from a group, merge them, and export them into jpgs, then move on to the next layer group. Saving all the files in a new directory called "images" My layers are organized into groups, I’d also like to be able to have the script ignore layers that end with a specific character (or some other tag)

[URL]

This one exports the top visible layer(s) as a jpg with the same filename as the .PSD

<code>
function createFolder( folderObj ){ if( !folderObj.parent.exists ) createFolder( folderObj.parent ); if( !folderObj.exists ) folderObj.create(); }; function exportSFW( doc, saveFile, qty ) { var exportOpts = new ExportOptionsSaveForWeb( ); exportOpts.format = SaveDocumentType.JPEG exportOpts.includeProfile = true;//default false exportOpts.quality = qty; if ( saveFile.exists ) saveFile.remove( ); doc.exportDocument( saveFile, ExportType.SAVEFORWEB, exportOpts ); };

[code]....

Photoshop :: (Nested Layer Groups) Warning Message Disabling From Application Settings?

Aug 28, 2013

I am using Photoshop CS6 and if I have nested layer groups whose depth is greater than 5 I get the following error message. "This document contains nested layer groups that may change in appearance if opened in applications older than Photoshop CS6".

I can click on "don't show this message again" before pressing ok, but can i disable it from showing somewhere in the application settings? I want to enable it sometimes and sometimes not.

- The "Reset All Warning Dialogs" button from Edit - Preferences - General is not very usefull because I want to keep other messages' settings, only this one should be affected.

GIMP :: How To Select Layer Groups And Copy Them Over To Another Pre-existing Image

Oct 25, 2012

I'd like to be to select a layer groups and copy them over to another pre-existing image.

I've been struggling with this for an hour or so, and I haven't found a way to do this.

Is is possible to do this in GIMP?

The closet I've found is a kind of paste where you do this: drag the tab of the origin image over to the tab of the target image. The result is a new layer in the target image called "dropped buffer". However, the entire origin image is imported flattened.

I've been trying other drag and drop operations, but without success. Usually when I drop the selection to the target image, the icon under the mouse dissapears, and nothing actually happens.

I thought this might be a window manager problem. But I get the same results across kde, gnome and xfce.

Lightroom :: Reordering Images In Survey Mode

What are the restrictions on rearraging images in Survey mode? I could not figure out why it would sometines work and sometimes doesn't.
 
For example, I have a main top directory 2012 and in it a folder for each month. If I am in GRID view at the 2012 level and choose images in Survey mode, I cannot rearrange them. But I am in GRID view in one of the subfolders, then I can.
 
Is this normal? Am I doing anything wrong?

Lightroom :: Reordering Photos Stops Working After A While?

Jan 12, 2014

I use the grid view to reorder photos then rename them so I have the corrrect sequence number for each image as part of the name. After I have been doing this for an hour or so (on various folders of images) Lightroom gives me an error message saying: "Reorder photos by dragging from within the grid view, not by dragging from another source". The images are not from multiple folders and I am gragging within the grid view same as I was doing moments before it simply stopped working. Subsequent attempts to drag are met simply with silence. No more error messages.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Reordering Tube And Pipe CC Parts?

Jun 25, 2012

I am trying to reorder the parts in an assembly with tube & pipe fittings, i want to put them in folders.

The problem is that i can't drag & drop the fittings, i can add them to folders when all the parts are together but i can't move those folders around after that either.

The fittings get this special T&P content icon, other CC parts (with the "book" icon) can move around like i want.

Is there a way to make the T&P fittings act like normal CC parts, so i can reorder them?

Xara :: Selecting Groups Within Groups

Sep 12, 2011

I just learned (after 16 years...) that it's been possible to drill down through successive compound objects within groups without using the new V7 feature "Edit inside".

I'd always used Ctrl+Click within a group to select the object in it I want, but could never select just a group that was within--only a single object. But apparently Ctrl+Click is only intended to select the bottom-most (leaf) object of the group (tree). If instead you use Ctrl+Alt+Click, you can click through each level of a group.

So for example if you made two groups of 3 objects and then grouped the two groups together, you can select the whole group first, then one of the other groups within, then one of the objects within that group.

I can't believe I didn't know this. Shows what I know. And what amazes me more is that I didn't figure it out given that you can Alt+Click to select through overlapping objects.

In other words I have 10 photos in total sorted into 2 groups, I want to merge photo number 1 with photo number 5, 2 with 6 etc. Can it be done through batch or would I have to do it manually? Is there an import action that would allow me to chose the sequential photo each time?

Photoshop :: Two Adjustment Layers In Two Different Groups

Sep 25, 2012

I have a problem with my layers which I can not figure out how to solve.

see picture:

I have a group called: "Hele akvarier" " where I have used "Create new fill adjustment layer" - "Brightness / Contrast" to the layers which are under. (Layer 2, Original Copy, Original).Over is there are two layers named "Layer 3, Layer 1". These layers, I also need to  use the "Brightness / Contrast" to they're going to look right, but the top "adjustment layer" affects all the layers under.
 
How do I get my layers divided into two groups, each with its "adjustment layer" to use each with its own settings?

Photoshop :: Tween A Group Of Groups

Apr 9, 2013

How can I tween a Group of Groups to scale?
 
I use my Pshop groups in a similar fashion to how Flash uses Display Object Containers. I have one group containing the rest of my groups serving as a 'master group' so I can perform global transformations to all of my layers. For some reason, it stopped letting me scale.
 
Using frame animation (yes I'm using frame on purpose, not motion), I would like to get the master group to tween a scale and tranlate. I can get it to translate it's XY coordinates, but for some reason the scale doesn't work anymore. It was working before but not now. I even tried converting the group to a smart object but that doesn't work, and that's fine, I try to avoid smart objects where possible.
 
How to get this to work or what I might have done wrong to the file?

Photoshop :: Duplicate Groups Not Working In CS6?

Feb 13, 2013

Everytime I try to duplicate groups in photoshop cs6 to another open PSD file it usually works, but lately whenever I try to do it it only gives my the option to duplicate the groups to either a brand new file (an untitled file) or to the original file (that i'm duplicating the groups from). It won't allow me to duplicate them to another open PSD file.
 
For example, (in case i'm not being clear), say I have 2 files open such as A.psd and B.psd but i want to duplicate a bunch of groups i created in A.psd to B.psd. When i click on the groups i want to duplicate and the option box opens- in the destination box it only gives me the option of duplicating the groups to either A.psd (which is useless) or to a new file. It doesn't give the option to duplicate the groups to B.psd. It only gives the option if it's just a layer. I either have to merge groups into one layer or make them into a smart object and use the duplicate layer option instead. It's become a annoying problem because I want my groups to just duplicate. I shouldn't have to merge them in order to send them into another file. It has always worked until now.
