How to duplicate a smart object and then modify it, without affecting the original?

I have an element of vector illustrator that I am placed in a t-shirt mockup in photoshop. I have the provision essentially how I want, but I'm trying different color variations. I think that simply duplicate the initial placement and then change the color of the copy resulting, but this affects both the copy and the original. I looked into it a little further and found that I should try the option "replace contents" under smart objects, and that it would change the copy. Then I go back to illustrator, made a copy of the original vector and then the color change I had in mind and then saved as a separate document that I could use then by replacing the contents of the copy. However, still affects two smart objects!

I tried this like linked smart objects and smart objects shipped without success.

In the end, I just want to maintain the position of the original layer with the layer duplicated and edited. If you know a better way, please share!

Layer > Smart Object > new Smart Object by copy. It forks a new, independent so (cut and paste or duplicate maintains the link between them).

When you double-click the SO thumbnails in the layers panel, it opens the SO in the main application, in this case to have.

Do Save your changes (not save money, unless you want to distribute the SO in a separate file, normal).

  • How to replace a layer that has a mask applied without affecting the mask?

    I have a layer with a photo.  I animated a mask to this layer, but now the client wants the picture replaced by another.  When I add a new photo in a new layer and copy the properties of the good work the mask layer mask lands in a different location than the original.  I tried to make a replacement of the images with the source photo try to make the new photo but the same results, the mask always gets repositioned.

    How can I replace an image on a layer that has a mask run on it by another without affecting the mask?

    Thank you

    If they are of different sizes, use the old layer as a track matte for the new.

  • A url in an e-mail message opens in the firefox window and then open a new (replacing the original window.

    Using Safari, when I click on a url in an e-mail message, it opens in a new window. Using Firefox, clicking on a url in an email replces the firefox window opened by a new one. I want that they open both.

    Is the email in Firefox and this page is accessing the linked page, or is the e-mail message in a separate program, and it launches the URL in the last active window of Firefox?

    If the problem is an external link, you can check your settings for the following preference:

    (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

    (2) in the filter box, type or paste link.open and make a pause so that the list is filtered. Then look for that and if its value is not 2, change it to 2.

    Browser.Link.open_newwindow.override.external

    -1 = open_newwindow applies to external links (default)

    3 = open external links in a new tab

    2 = open external links in a new window

    1 = open external links in the active tab

    Edit: Probably a good idea to check this one, too, and set it to 2 or 3, as you prefer.

    Browser.Link.open_newwindow

    3 = divert new window into a new tab (by default) (checked *)

    2 = allow the link to open a new window (uncontrolled *)

    1 = new power window in the same tab

    * First check box in the Options > tabs (on Mac, preferences > tabs)

  • Can I uninstall and then reinstall ff without losing the Favorites and passwords? If so, how?

    I made the mistake of changing permissions in the information page on my site of fantasy football. Was trying to get rid of advertising that covered areas of the page and kept me from my weekly starting eleven.
    Instead, he has made it impossible for me to connect to the web pages of my team. I can connect to CBS Fantasy Football, but not for pages dealing with my League or team.

    Install Adblock more Manager of FF Add-ons. It will remove the ad. It's a work around, but it works.

  • Smart objects - copy without referencing the Original SO?

    A question from me

    If I copy a raster layer several times for an animation to image, then it makes sense to do than the smart object layer.  What I do, but I'm missing something.  For example, there is a video going around on photo blogs today, a lady in charge by an elk, but missed the guy with the iPhone, so I quickly put together.

    Elk-Lady.gif

    The video has been radically challenged in the Department of pixel, so I made the Lady layer one OC and formulated a number of copies.  Same thing with the Elk (from a different source), where I used Puppet Warp to simulate a bucking motion.  In both cases, Free transforming the PW YES, or using copied, caused the original SO layer to reflect the changes.  Not good at all. And it's something that's happened to me before.

    Then a little later, Google I found this old threadand tried his advice to slide SO the layer to the new icon of layer instead of using Ctrl j.  But that's where it weird, because now I could use Ctrl j and PW as before and modify a copied SO layer without affecting the original.

    Someone has a good understanding of why my SOs don't always work in the same way for me?  I guess I should man to the top and RTFM, but I was using what I thought exactly the same workflow in different documents and get different behavior.

    Working with smart objects in Photoshop

    I don't see this problem in PS CC 2015 (Mac) with copy/duplicate methods. Are you sure that you not open the parent (SO) and the transformation (Puppet Warp or free transform) running on the child (content)?

    Application of puppets Warp to a smart object layer apply PW as a dynamic filter that is only attached to this layer (you will see in the layers), and if none of the other layers will be affected by PW. But if you run PW on duplicate content, clicking on a smart object to see the child record, then all layers will be affected.

    Looks like you know what you're doing, but the PW behavior as a dynamic filter is specifically designed for the layer that the smart filter is applied.

    It looks like you copied a symbol from one image to another, then
    "gone in ' and edited this symbol... what you need to do is create a copy
    the symbol and change this one instead... IOW...

    step 1:
    'symbol1_mc' in the library is duplicated to create 'symbol2_mc '...

    Step 2:
    you copy your picture 1 on frame 2 of the timeline just as you did

    Step 3:
    Use the properties panel to switch on stage (and the second image)
    "symbol1_mc" with "symbol2_mc"... so that you now have 'symbol1_mc '.
    frame 1 and 'symbol2_mc' on frame 2

    Step 4:
    then edit "symbol2_mc".

  • How to transform a layer object and a path at the same time?

    Hi all

    I know that I will start when you tell me the answer to this!

    I would really like to know if there is a way I can manage to transform a layer object and a path at the same time... or if there is no work around to get there.

    In a Word, for example I spend a VERY long time to create a drive complex around a very detailed object and then at the end note to what twisted and perspective, and would like to straighten.

    Of course I could turn and correct the object and then carefully turn the path - but it will not correct and I have to spend a lot of time the path of adjustment and make SURE, it is perfect.

    Are there not somehow, I was able to transform set?

    Usually, of course, I do all the correction to straighten and correct the perspective in advance, but in some cases after I am done creating the path I then notice that image could have used other adjustments.

    I appreciate all the advice you can get :)

    Thank you kindly,

    Christine

    Transform the layer and then target the way and make "Edit > Transform path > Again. If you make several changes on the layer, and then each time that validate you and leave transformation mode, remember to do the ' transform path > Again "to keep the layer and the synchronized pathname.

    Keep the computer plugged in whenever possible.

    If you keep the computer always connected, make sure that at least twice a month

    Run it on battery until battery charge level falls to about 40-50%.
