Revit :: Copying Entire Apartment Building Two Times?

Feb 14, 2012I'm taking a web design class, and we are doing a preliminary layout in Photoshop CS5. Last night the prof taught us how to do something he calls "slide copying." It's basically holding down Opt or Alt while clicking on the layer, and then sliding it downward. You then get a new layer and its number.
Here is what I am trying to do. I have a 1" border around my web page. I am typing in a single letter, and then copying it. How can I make sure that when I drag it into its new position, it will be aligned with the original letter? There are going to be dozens of these going around the border, so I want to get this right from the start.
Something like "distribute horizontal centers"?
I know that I can group layers and make any changes there, of course, but I'm wondering about the easiest way to do it in the first place.
The border will be around all sides.
Photoshop :: Copying 2 Layers At Once
Apr 18, 2004I have a button that is comprised of two layers. I use this button extensively on my page so I'm trying to copy both layes at once. I make one layer active, then I link the other layer, then I use the Move Tool and press ALT, but only one layer gets copied. Is there an easy way to copy 2 Layer elements at once in Photoshop 6.0?

Sep 29, 2007In PS CS3, is there a simple way to copy the contents of a partially transparent layer from one image and paste them into another image of the same size without PS trying to center the pasted content? If so, how is this accomplished?
Here's the situation. I am trying to make a bunch of blending mode reference images. They consist of a base color layer, a blend color layer, and several different layers for labels. The base and the blend color layers have off center squares of gradiated colors, so you can see how the blend changes based on changes to the base and blend colors.
I've finished grayscale versions for each layer blending mode, now I'm working on a color version. I have created one (Luminosity), and now I want to past the blend color and base color layers from the color Luminosity image into all the grayscale images so that I can reuse the labels in grayscale images.
When I drag the layers from the layer palette of one document to the document window of another document, it places the color squares in the location based upon where I drop them. If I copy from one document to the other, it centers the color squares (they need to be off-center to work with the pre-existing labels). I've not tried replacing the transparency in the blend and base color layers, because... well.. because I shouldn't have to. Dagnabit. But, I suspect that would work.
I'm running Photoshop CS3 Extended v10.0 on Mac OS X v10.4.10 w/2GB RAM.
Photoshop :: Copying Layers Between Psd Files?

Photoshop :: Copying Two Layers Into Another PSD File
Apr 3, 2009I have created a file with about 35 layers. The top layer is needed to make the lower layers look right. My plan was to copy the first two layers into the new file, turn off the second layer, turn on the third layer, and then copy it, along with the top layer still turned on, into the same new file. I want to repeat this process until all layers have been copied. I just cannot seem to find out how to do this without a tremendous amount of extra work. So I know how to do it the looong way, but surely there is a way I can copy two layers, in their arranged order, as one new layer into a new file?
View 2 Replies View RelatedPhotoshop :: Keyboard Shortcuts And Copying Layers
May 9, 2013I have an issue with the behaviour of the alpha channels and layers.I have upgraded to the latest version.I have tried resetting the preferences per Julianne Cost's Key Board Short Cut (KBSC) method. None of the preferences were reset.I still have all my saved workspaces available etc etc.
After making a selection in the channels pallet and saving using the "Save selection as channel" button I have what appears to be a bug when trying to import the selection into the layers panel.
I make the selection. Save it as a channel. Make the selection active.Then switch over to the layers pallet. I then try to copy the selection across using the KBSC 'Cmd J'.On the first attempt I only get an exact copy of the layer (in a single layer document).
However, when I use the same KBSC a second time (immediately after the first attempt - no changes) the third layer created has my selection as masked.So after the process in a single layer document my layers stack up as follows (I have layed them out as if in the layers pallet).
-Layer 1 (with just my selection)
-Background Copy (an exact copy)
-Background (with lock icon).
Photoshop :: Naming Layers The Same As The File Name You Are Copying From
Sep 20, 2006I know that title sounds confusing, but i was wondering if there is anyway to automatically name a layer the same as a separate file. For example i am creating a layered Photoshop file that contains a bunch of photos and i want each of the layers to be named the same as the separate photo files i am copying them from - make sense?
Anyway, just wondering if this can be done without having to manually type or paste in the file name.
Photoshop :: Actions: Copying Layers From One Comp To Another....
Nov 26, 2006Here's what I want to do:
I want to process a series of pics for my photography business and I think I have a way to do a great deal of them with minimum effort. What I want to do is to work on one photo and create a smaller project that I copy and paste my Adjustment layers in. Then, I want an action to go through my queue of pics and copy the layers over, create a blurred layer (for skin touch up) and a sharpened layer. That way, when it's done, all I have to do is open each saved PSD and do touch up as needed.
The problem is that I can't get an action to recognize that I'm dragging a layer over from one comp to another. Is there a way, instead of creating a brand new action for each set of pics, to do what I want to do?
Photoshop :: Copying Two Layers Through Same Selection Mask Produces Different Dimensions On New File
Oct 29, 2013I'm creating an animation in AE eventually but initially have two hand drawn images of the same object that I've scanned into PS.
I have a single mask created that I turn into a selection to copy the two images to output as new single files to then import as 2 frame png sequence into AE.
Normally, and this is critical, the dimension of the new files would/should be exactly the same. But they're not! How is this possible, the selection is the same for both layers.
After Effects :: Stretching Length Of Entire Composition Not Layers
Oct 26, 2013I need to time-stretch a whole comp. It's based on a Video blocks template, but for the purposes of this particular piece, I don't need to stretch the template itself, individual layers/clips/avi files, etc... The entire composition is moving about four times faster than it really needs to. Nothing needs to be individually adjusted; it's an "overall" issue-- I just need to stretch the 15 second time uniformly to one minute. For some reason, I'm having a lot of trouble finding out how to do this. Changing the duration/ time stretch has just created a sixty second video with fifteen seconds at the same speed and then forty-five seconds of black. There HAS to be a simple way to do this...
View 1 Replies View RelatedGIMP :: Copying Multiple Layers?
Nov 9, 2011Is there any way that I can copy multiple layers?
If I hit copy and then paste it as a new image I only get the layer I had selected.
If I merge all the layers down to one, it takes a long time because I have to merge them one at a time. Then I have to undo all those merges to the original so I can still work with its layers, just to make a copy of the image I am working on.
And sometimes I want to copy layers from an image and actually keep them as layers in whatever it is I'm copying them to, and in that case my best option to to select each layer one at a time, copy it and paste it as a new layer in the other image. And this method doesn't always leave the layers lined up properly.
So, Is there any way that I can copy multiple layers?

Photoshop :: Using Transform Tools For Entire Picture
Nov 10, 2012In the attached photo, I've already done some transforming and cropping to the get the top of the photo to be relatively straight.
I'm pretty sure what I need to do now is find a way to get the lower left of the photo to be pushed down and to the left to both: stop the appearance of that side of the photo jutting out more and to straighten out the white sign that says SOHO NOW OPEN so that it's flush with the top. However, I've tried all the transform tools and none of them are making that happen for me.
Photoshop :: How To Darken Entire Video (MOV File)
Sep 8, 2013I have a pencil animation that I did a while back that is a .mov file. The animation itself is too light and you can hardly see it. I opened the file in Photoshop and opened the animation tab.
I tried to convert it to frame animation so that I could unify all of the frames and edit just one using the brightness / contrast adjustment. Nothing works. It keeps on just editing one frame at a time.
Photoshop :: CS5 - Normalize Colors Across Entire Image
Apr 13, 2012So here's what I've got. I've got a scanned image of the unit patch...the problem is the image shows the thread lines, which equate to different colors. I need to normalize the colors across the entire image...i.e the helicopter should be solid black and the background solid red etc.
Not much of a Photoshop guy but I'm learning OJT it seems. I have both Photoshop CS5 and Illustrator so whichever works best I'm game to use. I've attached the image in question.

Mar 9, 2013Is there a way to take an entire group of photos that are different sizes and do something that will change all of them to the same size (or as close as possible to the same size) without cropping out parts while maintaining the aspect ratio of the original first layer?
three photos:
1st is 936 X 1101
2nd is 3279 X 3858
3rd is 582 X 1141
layers are 4000 X 2200

Jan 7, 2013I've been using Ps CS5 with a wacom graphics tablet on my mac for over a year now, and have been unable to use the brush feature for the entire duration. With or without the graphics tablet, brush strokes come out as pixelated. I've gotten around that by using the mixer brush instead, which doesn't come out pixelated. However, that's pretty limiting.
I've trained on Ps with a graphics tablet on other computers prior to owning it without this problem and researched on forums to no avail. I've reinstalled both the tablet and Ps and had no luck.
Photoshop :: Color Filling Entire Layer And Not Object
Dec 17, 2012I am trying to follow this tutorial ...
[URL].........
Under #2 ... I am assuming the author means to draw with the Rounded Rectangle in Path mode ... am I assuming correct? I think it is suppose to be set to Path b/c it's the only way the Blend Mode reads "Pass Through"
this tuts steps aren't really numbered well but also under step two where the "BG" is filled with black the resulting shape is suppose to look like this :
But mine looks like this :
Notice how the left side has a lighter grey color and the one from the tut above is clear?
Also under step #2 ... where it comes to the part where I am to color the resulting shape with a yellow gradient this is what happens to me :
the entire canvas becomes colored ... ? Here are my Layers.
I select the "BG" layer to apply the gradient.
Here is the Layers panel from the tut which is confusing to me b/c the only difference I see is that the tuts panel has the down arrow and folder of the top layer/the "Body" layer seems to be greyed out... and the tut says something like : Activate the "BG" layer and cancel the mask view. Well, how to go about canceling the mask view and I looked all over Ps for such an "action" and also throughout the online manual.
