New layer

I use CS3 with windows. When I drag a picture on the top of a background image, sometimes it becomes a new layer, other times it does not work and the background image disappears from the view and the new image becomes the active file. The two images are the same (.psd) file type, resolution, mode, etc. I don't know what I'm doing differently. Any suggestions?

Try to drag the window to the Image of the background image of the thumbnail of the layer of an open image.

Basically, you will have two windows side by side image. Click on the image that you want to move to make it active, then go to the palette layers and drag this sticker on your second image or background window.

It will appear as a new layer above the background of the target image.

    I have an object made to 3D element bound to a null object to control its movement. The position that there is everything I like. However, when I add a new layer (layer setting, sound, text or other) changes the position of the null object. It comes to a lot of trouble because I use 3d objects and as they occupy a different position, their movement seems wrong.

    I wanted to add an adjustment layer, so I précomposé just what I have and add the adjustment to the model layer, so it does not change. It worked perfectly. But, now, I want to add a new text object, bring it to feature 3D extrude it and bind it to a null object, the problem is that if I add the null object, or the text layer to the original model, the previous objects will change their position.

    I use phrases such as wiggle and time * with the first null object. This has something to do with that evil?

    How can I solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Yes. The seed of wiggle() and other Pseudo-aleatoires functions is obtained according to the index. You must manually set a seed with seedRandom (< your="" value="" here="">, true) to avoid tampering. This is nothing unusual.

    File > place bound to add image (press ENTER after you have size and position) and it will become a dynamic object on its own layer.

  • Problems with the new layer

    CS6. Installed Cs6 on a laptop, when I have a mask layer and want a new layer (control / alt and j) but it creates the new layer with the previous layer mask. With my office (control / alt / j) creates the new layer (no layer mask)

    If all you want is the current contents of the layer, you will use three shortcuts... (Ctrl + A Ctrl + C Ctrl + V). Those who would choose the hidden of the currently targeted layer visible content. Copy the pixels selected in the Clipboard. Paste it into a new layer containing the copied pixels. You can use Shift + Ctrl + C, if you want that the composite of the layers visible or visible layers of timbre Shift + Alt + Ctrl + E.

  • My object from sticking on a new layer on the layer below which I was working. Even though I have lock or hide.

    If I copy or cut an object from one layer in my document or another document and want to paste it on a new layer in my document, it does not work. Even though I have lock or hide the layer it comes. Illustrator gives me rather a warning that I am trying to stick to a visible layer locked or not.

    What should do?

    Erica,

    If you have layers remembers dough checked in the layers flyout/list drop-down palette, uncheck it.

  • Lasso and new layer

    I'm new to photoshop, but for these last days, I used the lasso tool then check J to create a new layer and modify this part of the image.  Today, I use the lasso tool and control J and it creates a new layer, but only shows the grid and the contour - nothing of the image appears.  I also tried the lasso tool, then do a click right, then new layer and copy but still just the grid and contour.  Why it does not now or how to operate again?

    Hi Jeannie,

    You follow a proper workflow.

    Please follow the steps and see if that helps.

    > Use the Lasso tool to make a selection

    > Click on layer > new > Layer via Copy

    > Check if it is create a new layer with the selection or not.

    Also, please post a screenshot of the interface of Photoshop after having used the shortcut.

  • Impossible to color in the new layer * new user *.

    1.PNG

    What I wanted to do was draw/color the hands separately so I used the Lasso tool and describes the hands at Base of layer 1. I used "Layer by copying" to separate the hands.

    2.PNG

    When I tried to color in it, I can only color in the previous layer [layer 1 Base] under him as you can see from the layer panel on the right side.3.PNG

    So I tried to block the Base of 1 layer and 'Hide' by pressing on the "eye" icon. And when I wanted to color, this popup came.

    Is there a technique I use to separate just the hands or any part of the image?

    It seems to me, on the layer 1, you can paint the area around the copied area. What will happen if you make a selection of the segment on layer 1, then select > Inverse. You did a selection on layer 1. Did you reverse and Cmd + H to hide this selection?

    I suggest you choose the Base Layer, make your selection, then Cmd + J. He will place the segment on a new layer in a transparent skin and automatically place you on this layer, ready for painting.

  • Post image in layer without making a new layer

    I have a background layer and another layer with a motorcycle in the layer.

    I want to stick a face in the SAME LAYER that contains the bike.

    Whenever I have select the layer of the bike and try to stick the face inside - made photoshop it is clean, new layer for the face. Now I have 3 layers.

    WITHOUT a "merge visible" or "flatten image" - is it possible to display the face directly in the layer of motorcycle and not to create a new layer and not to merge or flatten out?

    I wish I had the face and the bike in the same layer and use the move tool to enter and two of them move where I want in the layer.

    Thank you, Louis

    N ° you really don't want to paste it into an existing layer. I would say that most of the time, once you paste, you need to adjust the position of the pasted image placement, so you would need it on its own layer.

  • Police in a new layer with the background color

    Hello.

    When I'm doing a new layer on an experience that is defined through the ALT + CTRL + P (imitation of colored paper), the new layer appears dark. Instead of orange color, the text color is dark. Be it on a new layer, or on the same.

    What's wrong?

    Do not use the simulation. Just make a gray filled rectangle and define your type above it.

    In Illustrator, there is no notion of background colors as in publishers raster graphics.

  • How can I remove the checkerboard drawing in a new layer in 2015 CC?

    I'm doing some exercises drawing using layers with drawing on a layer underneath (opacity turned down). How can I get rid of the checkerboard design in each of the layers so I see what I paint more clearly? I named the layer and watched in the layers panel, but no luck. Thank you very much!

    You realize that the Board is in fact the background, and that new layers without content allow you to see through to this context?  You can fill the background with white, or you can disable the grid in Preferences > transparency, but all that will do is make each new layer appear to be filled with white, except that you will be able to see through the underlying layers.

  • Keeping selected when you create a new layer of origin

    Is it possible to "definitively" select a layer?


    At the moment I just a single layer that I am trying to select a portion of and then new layer by cutting. Once this new layer is selected, I have to reselect the original layer before you replicate this process again.

    On the one hand, this seems really minor, on the other hand, really Basic. I assume that there is an easy way to do what I'm overlooking. I need to replicate this process a few hundred times and work with / export sections is not conducive to my endgoal.

    possible?

    Not a new layer will become the current target layer in Photoshop. It that way forever and a lot of things relies on this.  If this was changed it would brake a lot.  The best thing you could do is an action that would do what you want to do and make a shortcut you can use instead of "new layer via cut."  The action would simply make a new layer by cutting then the Alt + [Select layers backward step.
