I have the move tool and the selected layer...

but for some reason, I can't text to line up anywhere. The alignment buttons act as if they are grayed out. Is there something that I am missing?

There are at least two selected layers (the text layer and the background layer) or the text layer and a selection (i.e. Select all...) for alignment controls and buttons to activate and go down the text of the document.

  • Help, please! I can't select the shape I drew with the pentool again... I have the selected layer, but there is no sign of my new shape in my path Panel?  I have been sitting here for days literally and simply cannot make it appear the race that I created

    HI - can help I'm going crazy! !

    I drew a shape with the tool pen (which took me Age..) and I go back an image that I imported, I cannot select once again it.  I can see it in red, but I'm not able to select once again it.  I have the selected layer, but there is no sign of it in my Panel of traces at all.  I tried clicking on the direct Selection tool (about 100 times), I tried the Brush tool.  I've tried everything.  The same thing happened to me the other day...    Please can someone help!  Tania

    It's the plug technique on the subject:

    Using Photoshop | Manage paths

    It contains this point under manage paths:

    When using a shape or pen tool to create a work path, the new path appears as the work path in the tracks Panel. The work path is temporary; You must save it to avoid losing its contents.

    OK, the red, you mentioned is a Stoke you added. Then quick mask is not involved.

  • I want to get rid of the Bing screen, but there is no "menu at the top of the Firefox window" for me "Select tools and then select the Add-ons menu item.

    Versions of Firefox 3.6 + have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.

    Press the Alt key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open view > toolbars and select menu bar, so it has a check mark.

    The F10 can also be used on most PCs to temporarily reveal the menu bar.

  • Problem with 'Create new Extrusion of the selected layer' CC 2014

    Hello, I am experienced with Photoshop but I'm new to 3D text in Photoshop.  I type the text and convert it to a form.  When I choose to create new Extrusion of the selected layer I get the dialog, I don't see in tutorials.  It says "you are about to create a 3D layer.  You want to switch to the 3D workspace?  Yes/No, do not display again. "Which one should I use for the 3D text?

    If I choose Yes, all the panels disappear and the content in the tool options bar (Ribbon?) just under the menu bar disappears.  I have to restart Photoshop to get back on the tool options.  What could I do it wrong?

    Thanks - Dave

    I just chose 'No' and don't look at back.  I love my workspace, just as it is and doesn't prefer Photoshop to change for me in this case especially.

    You bring up the 3D Panel yourself via the window - 3D.  I think it's a good alternative for the Actions Panel, because I don't have any currently working in the 3D world.

    You'll want to see easily if you are working on 3D are 3D Panel and panel properties, among a few others.

    Regarding return your workspace as you like it...  Note the small switch near the upper right of the main window of Photoshop.  That can be used to select a workspace.  I suggest that you experiment and familiarize yourself with the concept of workspaces.  You can set your own and save it with a name, and that can really be useful.

  • keyboard shortcut. (period) disable the classification in the selected layer

    I can't get my keyboard shortcut to disable the selected layer of ranking to work. Windows has the same Mac keyboard shortcut and I'm Windows.

    I use full screen and want to turn off a layer classification but cannot. I have to go back to the main panels and turn off the eyeball for the selected layer.

    Is it me who can not get this keyboard shortcut from. (period) to work?

    If I go on my pad and think that the. (period) is there, I find myself remove the selected layer using what, in my view, could be the. (period) there.

    This keyboard shortcut was reassigned and I use a pdf of Speedgrade obsolete reference? But this one is 10/12/2014.

    Everything could find your question! Re-entered Sg, played with touches of 'standard' period and paved num. Then tried to turn the NumLock... then, rather than being a temp power gimbal, the period key just to delete the layer selected. Not like a rocker... just delete the layer. Had to go back to history (Ctrl/Com - H) back on my bed.

    Then... you can check the status of your caps lock...

  • Select the crop tool, and then select a ratio (based on the name of the file)

    I have a lot of files that when I their culture that they need a specific report. Currently, they are stored in the tool.

    I wish I could make a shortcut so that it selects the crop tool and the report to the file name. I can understand the file name information.

    i.e. Fr10 = a 2:3 Ratio

    or

    20 = 3:4

    There is no need to crop the image simply select the tool.

    I found this to select the tool

    The beginning is the same.

  • Moves other than the selected layer layers

    After you select a layer by dragging in the image box and move other layers above this layer or folder of the group. The first selected layer is more selected, the affected layer is even if I was just dragging inside the picture of my initial layer box. CS4 Windows

    Two things to check for

    (1) see if the layer is locked.

    (2) If you were moving to the origin of this layer and the latter it does not move, look in the toolbar above and if the automatic selection box is checked.

    When this box is checked, you can select a layer on the image it self. This can be difficult if there is not a lot of clearance between the two layers as a small image on one of the layers. It would be possible to accidentally select the wrong layer when you try to drag. With the box unchecked, then you have to select the layer in the layer panel.

  • Move the selected layer shortcut object

    Hello world

    I would like to be able to invoke a script that would simply move the object selected (block of text or image) to another layer without having to open the layers panel, select the point and drag to another layer I. I find it tedious and awkward especially on repetition.

    I previously asked the people here how I could run a script that searched objects with an assigned attribute and retrospectively to move them all to a single layer. But I prefer to be able to hit a command with the selected object, which pushed the object on a specific layer.

    For me, this really should be a built-in shortcut, such as control-alt-down top /. As far as I can tell this is not assigned to anything else and would be really helpful!

    Can someone suggest a solution to do this, script or other?

    Thank you very much!

    Lewis

    How about this dynamic Duo?

    //DESCRIPTION: One Layer Down
    for (s=0; s
    
    //DESCRIPTION: One Layer Up
    for (s=0; s 0)
      app.selection[s].itemLayer = app.activeDocument.layers.previousItem(app.selection[s].itemLayer);
    }
    

    It works, even with a multiple selection on different layers.

    Be warned that, without the Panel layer open, you don't maybe not up-to-date on your active layer current! It changes because a selection is moved from one layer to another.

  • problems with 2015.1 - not so recent recent files, cmd + marquee move tool option automatically selects top layer...

    Hello buddies.

    I'm digging the new interface and all that. the air is smooth. No matter what.

    have the following two problems... ask yourself if I am failed to adjust some new settings or something...

    (1) recent files: recent sentence. is not up-to-date. does not display the files last I opened or saved. what it shows is a bit random, really.

    (2) you know that medium to access the move tool marquee tool + cmd? Well now it selects automatically the top layer of most. I tried to find a way to make this wide, but do it in the real move tool options has no effect on this. What can I do? It comes as the tool #1 alt I use! He kills me. I really want to Karate chop my computer! :-D

  • Why aren't my live paint selection tool and direct selection indicating when objects are selected?

    In the document 'A', when I use the live paint selection tool click on a segment of my live paint group, this segment becomes "gray" or "pixelated" to indicate that I have selected it.

    In the document 'B', no indication at all when a live painting segment is selected.  It has the same appearance as a segment not selected.

    I am using the same tool & selection of segments in the same way both times.  I even experienced and pasted the same live paint group in both documents, to confirm that the appearance of the selected segments did not differ between the two documents.

    Even my regular direct selection tool is not indicating when a path or object is selected in the document 'B'.   There must be some setting or preference that differs between the two documents.    Someone has an idea it might be?  Also, is there a way to restore all the settings by default in a single shot, so I don't run into these problems of 'settings' elsewhere?

    I use Illustrator CS3.  I would appreciate any ideas!  Thank you.

    Doc 'A' - live paint Group segment is highlighted when I select with the live paint Selection tool...

  • Action written in CS4 does not work properly in items 11 - contexts the 'selective' layer

    I created an action with the help of Adobe Photoshop CS4, and that it works in CS4.  When I save and load the action in 11 elements, there is a problem with the selective color layer.  The selective color layer is revealed in the stack of layers with the message whereas it cannot be edited b/c it was created in the full version of Photoshop. However, the layer itself has no changes in color/inside.

    In Photoshop, the selective color layer makes the photo look pink.  When I run the action in Elements11, selective color layer doing absolutely nothing to the photo.  I don't have the turned eye "on" to display the layer, and it is on the correct merge options & opacity (normal, 100%).

    If I run the action in Photoshop, save the file with all the layers created by the action and reopen the file in 11 elements, THEN the selective color layer shows its correct pink color.  But when I run the action as an autonomous action in Elements11, is not.

    Can anyone offer help as to why this is happening? Is there something special I need to do to make the action work in 11 elements? My understanding is that he must RUN and create the layers correctly, although some of them cannot be changed in Elements11. However, as it is, is not creating them with the appropriate color.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    selective color layer is not supported in PSE11. So any stage to edit would result in the error message saying that the layer can not be displayed.

    For your case, I believe that the recorded action starts by creating a selective correction blank adjustment layer and then tries to change and thus translates into a mistake.

    Even the effort to apply the effect by using result of adjustments of image by mistake as the "selective" command is not available.

    I would try to find another way to apply the effect, but I don't know if there is a way to apply an adjustment layer that is not supported by PES

    Well it explain. You have no 3D feature. Only the Standard CS6 does not have 3D versions, later do.

    If the CC, you have a broken installation, and you have to reinstall.
