Impossible to link layers in Photoshop CS

I have Photoshop CS. In the box showing the layers I've done, is no longer a small control box to the left of each allowing me to link one layer with the other. If I hold the cursor over the symbol in the shape of loop 'link' at the bottom, a "not available" appears. Does anyone know how to get back the link boxes please? Thanks David5119

Hello

Looks like you have a version of photoshop cs2 or newer.

To link layers in photoshop cs2 and more recent versions, the layers that you want to link must be selected first in the layers panel, and then tap the link at the bottom of the layers panel.

Just to be sure to check under help > about Photoshop to see which version you have.

  • Linking layers?

    Hi all. So, I'm new here, it's silly, there is so much info I started with a few searches but can't find anything here or in the many tutorials online to solve my problem so here goes.

    worth noting is that I only dabble in flash so I'm not very good at this.

    You can see the flash animation I created to http://www.aparcamac.com/index.php/1.htm (in the main content section when loading the page).

    I made the red background so that you can see the problem.

    You'll notice the huge red space under the animation where the hands pull backwards to when they take the laptop on the dock.

    I created the document 530 x 530 pix but when I give it this size in the embed, it cuts the external monitor at the top, no matter what I do, it leaves a ton of space downstairs. These hands that takes away the macbook pro must leave the movie scene well before they actually do now, in other words, the film seems to be much too high on the canvas (so to speak). in order to make the whole screen external it visible, I need to incorporate size 720 high 530 wide. This allows more space at the top but still leaves the space that I'm not downstairs.

    My question is can I link the layers in flash so I can drag them all down and solve this problem? I can't find an option like or layers of links tool in photoshop to be able to move the layers at the same time. I need to move all along 116 pixels in order to have the film where it belongs, at the bottom of the document and so get rid of this space background and be able to integrate to 530 x 530 pix because it was intended for.

    I'm sure it's easy for most of you, but he kills me.

    short of each layer manually moved 116 pix. (there are 9 layers and I don't want to spoil any of them by moving the wrong amount of pixels), I don't know what to do.

    the document must end there where begins the red background.

    Thanks in advance.

    Saludos,
    Jeremiah...

    Thanks a ton rritchey. What does very well!

    Yes, a bit of a goofy as workaround must be a simple procedure, but perhaps someday adobe will put a tool simple link.

    I was looking for a flash forums and user groups in order to 'bind the layers' so I NEVER would have come with the solution you provided.

    Thanks again, rock you!

  • Character animation: how to link layers?

    How you can link layers so that they move more evenly?

    For the moment, the eyebrows on my character are a little too independent. Is there a way I can block them together without making just a single layer?

    If you want to move them the same, I certainly would a layer. I've seen this in several puppets example and it looks pretty good. It is rarer to the brows of the cartoon characters move to different vertical positions with the exception of a quizzical look of arched eyebrows one.

    I'm not 100% sure, but I think you could also add a second face on a second eyebrow behavior and label it as the left eyebrow, so that you would like to order the two eyebrows with one.  Each view is looking for a single instance of left eyebrow and right eyebrow, but adding that a behavior/additional view is expected to have more than one left eyebrow on a given face.

    You can also play with the eyebrow resistance setting in the properties of right under the Face if she feels like the movement is too strong.

    Hi dave04079,

    Yes, you also get access to install Photoshop on your computer when a member of the creative cloud.

    So I recommend that you please complete the creative process (Windows) Task Manager Cloud and activity monitor (MAC) and then reopen creative cloud.

    Sign to the creative cloud, then go ahead and install Photoshop.

    Kind regards

  • Disable the popup info when you drag the layers? (Photoshop CC)

    There is a small box that opens when you drag layers in Photoshop CC which shows the information of the unit (pixels, inches, etc.) when you drag a layer. I don't need and I find it embarrassing. I can't find any option to turn it off. Y at - it all?

    Yes, there are, but make a note of this in case you have need enabled in the future. This is a HUD (Heads Up Display) that allows to display transformation values in front of you while you adjust without a glance at the same values in the Info Panel.

  • How can you bring Illustrator Cs5 layers in Photoshop Cs5?

    Hi everyone, it is possible to bring Illustrator artwork in Photoshop so that the layers in Illustrator are layers in Photoshop, and so that all content is arranged as in Illustrator.

    I did bring in a form or a group of shapes in Photoshop by pasting them into a layer in PS then some bringing more things to another layer in Illustrator and paste into another layer in PS but obviously it is a mission to align new content, so it is organized as if it were in Illustrator first.

    Any help appreciated

    Thank you Gareth

  • Layers in Photoshop to Fireworks

    Hello


    I work with Fireworks and Photoshop CS4 on a MacPro OSX 10.5.6.


    This should be so easy (and I guess it is) but I can't get there.


    I have a Photoshop file with 15 diapers I want import or open in Fireworks to create an animated GIF. When I open the psd file in Fireworks, no layer appear. How can I get there? I messed around with the import preferences (nothing is set to flatten) but nothing seems to make any difference.


    I thought that the layers in Photoshop would come as images or layers inside FW.

    Please explain the steps needed to convert a Photoshop file with layers in a gif animated with Fireworks.


    Your help is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    States are what FW used for an animated GIF. Assuming that you don't need

    to do anything else for imaging, simply choose the animated GIFS of the

    Optimize Panel and then export the file.

    Fireworks does not use a timeline as IR did. You can change the

    screen delay time of each State by changing the value of the right side of

    the States Panel. The default is 7 (7/100 of a second). Increase the

    Number for a slower animation, it decreases for a faster animation.

  • Export the visible layers in photoshop by using the script.

    Hello

    I am new to adobe script, so please forgive me if this has been covered before.

    I have a book script Adobe Scripting of Chandler McWilliam, I want to use. Essentially, it exports all visible layers in a document open in PS. The script works, but I can't seem to export to a folder/directory of my choice. It is default export to the folder that contains the Photoshop application.

    I use a Mac.

    The Script looks like this:

    function exportVisible (doc) {}

    var myJPEG = new JPEGSaveOptions();

    myJPEG.quality = 10;

    myJPEG.formatOptions = FormatOptions.STANDARDBASELINE;

    var myPath = ' / users/tr/Desktop/JAVATESTFOLDER ";

    var myFolder = new Folder (myPath);

    myFolder.create ();

    var settings = new Array();

    var current; Reference to the current layer

    for (var i = 0; i < doc.layers.length; i ++) {}

    current = doc.layers [i];

    settings [i] = current.visible;

    doc. Layers [i]. Visible = false;

    }

    for (var i = 0; i < doc.layers.length; i ++) {}

    current = doc.layers [i];

    If (settings [i]) {}

    Current.Visible = true;

    var myFile = new File ("Img-" + current.name + '.jpg');

    doc.saveAs (myFile, myJPEG, true);

    Current.Visible = false;

    }

    }

    for (var i = 0; i < doc.layers.length; i ++) {}

    current = doc.layers [i];

    Current.visible = settings [i];

    }

    }

    exportVisible (activeDocument);

    I tried many variations, but in vain. I would be very grateful for any advice.

    I've not heard JJ found, but you need to add the path of access, but with my corrections.

    var myFile = new file (myPath + "/ Img-" + current.name + '.jpg');

  • Slow with many layers of Photoshop

    Hello!

    I do experience notable in Photoshop slowdowns when working with large files (more than 4000 x 4000 pixels) with many layers.
    I tried different things, like tinkering with performance options in Photoshop, brush settings and global PC settings.
    Nothing seems to help.

    When you start with a new file (say 4000 x 4000 pixels), everything seems fine. As I work, I create layers more. When the number of layer approaches 80 ~ 100 I start noticing significant slowdowns. The Brush tool becomes lag (delay adds boring), zooming and paning is smoother and everything becomes overall slower.

    When checking in the Manager of tasks, either the graphics card or RAM or processor is fully utilized. Total CPU usage is usually only 20 ~ 25%, 50% of RAM but Photoshop is lagging as hell.

    I think I have a quite decent PC. (at least for this type of workload..)
    My PC current specifications are:

    CPU: i7 6700 k @ 4, 0GHz
    RAM: DDR4, 16GB, 3000 Mhz
    GPU: GTX 980 Ti
    2xSSD RAID-0 for the main system partition (Photoshop "scratch disks" can also be programmed to do this).
    Windows 10


    So, what could be the problem? Any ideas I could try?
    Or should I rethink my working habits of several layers?

    Update!
    After more inexperienced, seems to have finally found the culprit that is causing slowdowns.
    Layer blending Options. Especially those that generate their own semi-transparent area.

    I can reproduce this in the layer file 10:
    (1) create a new file with the dimensions of the 6000 x 6000 pixels (or something bigger) with no background
    (2) draw something
    (3) add option 'outer glow' merger with significant RADIUS
    (4) add a few more layers, repeat steps 2 and 3
    (5) create new layer below all other layers and try to get something in the area where overlap the effects of "outer glow".

    So the main takeaway:
    Be careful adding mixture of options to layers and rasterization them where possible.
