Selection/layer for beginner question

New tempting user select the image of a photo for the overlay to another.  Can select with tools without any problem but unable to understand how to use only the selected part of a photo to superimpose on the background layer.  Would appreciate help from experienced users.  Thank you

  1. Let's say you have A & B photos
  2. Open the two images.
  3. Make a selection with one of the tools on A. You should see "marching ants" around the selection
  4. Go to Edition > copy. This will put the selection to the Clipboard
  5. Open the photo B, go to Edition > paste. Now you should have the choice on its own layer on B
  6. The tool move the access, the position of the selection and you can resize it with the angle handles as well

  • 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.

  • 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...

  • Oracle made customizations - for beginner

    Hi guys,.

    I'm NEW (not trained) on Oracle form builder. The only thing I know about tool Oracle Forms Developer is that it is used to create and customize forms. I have never used Oracle form builder tool earlier.

    If this tool has come with the suite Oracle Developer. I want to use this tool to customize certain forms custom Oracle previously created by someone.

    Now, I did some research on how to customize the Oracle Forms. And I could summarize the steps here:

    (A) identify the form in Oracle Apps that must be customized.

    (B) go to the specific directory on the middle of the year-groups for this executable form. Say to $AU_TOP/forms/US/POENTRY.fmb.

    (C) FTP that form and all its objects of reliable form & pll files to your PC.

    (D) to open the form, ensuring that you don't get any errors related to the lack of library or missing form object.

    (E) make a backup - rename this form on your pc, using your business of naming conventions.

    (F) make the changes to the form.

    (G) save the file on the PC and download again to $ US/forms/AU_TOP /

    Use below command to compile this form.

    frmcmp_batch.sh module=<path to fmb file> userid=APPS/APPS output_file=<full path to fmx output file> module_type=form compile_all=special
    

    (H) to move the file .fmx in $XXPO_TOP/forms/US or he would be above the command

    (I) go to the responsibility of the application developer

    Menu/application/form

    Save the form

    (J) registers the function of forms

    This feature of forms must be recorded against the "XX purchase" application.

    (K) now add a menu item so that this function of forms becomes available to specific responsibility.


    OK everything is said. Now a few Questions for you guys to answer.


    1 > in step b. $AU_TOP is utility application. $AU_TOP, forms, US, has a name of the form TEMPLATE.fmb. I read somewhere that we have this FTP on my PC and use it. Where I need to put this file on my PC and how I should link this with customizations of form for which I am working on. Does really take this to customizations.

    2 > customization can be perofrmed through CUSTOM.pll. But my boss gave me a lot of files .pll and .plx.

    So, is it that I just CUSTOM.pll or I would need to use all the .pll?

    How to use my customizations?

    3 > you need go through the stage I, J and K for customizations? As this would have been done already. Or someone asked me to establish the directory. How you compile the directory. ? All I want to see is weather my changes result or not.

    Need help after stage I.

    Apologies for Lengthy question but I am beginner. Thanks in advance.

    (1) Template.fmb is the new development of form. For customization on the form, the standard form is downloaded and amended as required, and resisted the application again. Here are the steps.

    Customize forms comes in Oracle Applications

    (2) Custom.pll is the common library of pl/sql. Just open you will see how to change and this is required syntax. Its like a common pl/SQL library.

    It depends on you condition if change is required on the other PLL.

    (3) IJK step are for any new registration form in oracle apps.

  • How to remove each layer except the selected layer?

    Hi arteangelus,

    Try this Code...

    #target photoshop
    var docRef = app.activeDocument;
    var layName = docRef.activeLayer.name
    var l = Number(docRef.layers.length)+1;
    while(--l){
        if(docRef.layers[l-1].name!=layName && docRef.layers[l-1].name!="Background"){
            docRef.layers[l-1].remove();
        }
    else{continue;}
    }

  • I have a selected layer, and I'd like use this selection to select things in another layer. I can't find a way to do this.

    Screenshot 2016-01-11 05.41.23.png

    What I have to do is to select a single layer of color depth to select then the depths of text for just this layer. The depths of text all come in on a layer of my GIS. I manually select each and place them on their respective layers, but as you can see, which could take some time. I saved a selection thinking I might be able to use it, but it did not work. In photoshop, it was so easy, but not so much in Illustrator. I hope that I am missing just something simple here... ideas?

    I will eventually write a code in GIS software to move the strings to a layer for each of them. The depths are actually extracted a file of S - 57. They were a little difficult to understand at first, but we wrote a code to exit the depth z and convert meters into feet. If I have to color code using the current file I end up touching each other anyway.

    So the key is that this could be a plugin great idea for an Illustrator 3rd party app. I asked Astute about this yesterday, but they had nothing in mind for now.

  • Can I move all the objects again selected layer without clicking hundreds of layer bars?

    I'm working on a complex illustrator file generated by GIS software. He gave me all kinds of groups of clip & road clip - what I really need, it's just to put all the same coloured polygons on the layer of a high level (unfortunately I can't draw all of my polygons in a group because illustrator doesn't pull these objects out of their existing clipping groups, and the card gets screwed completely upward if I release the clipping masks. With simple cards I have no problem Direct by selecting all of the polygons, I want, selecting their layers in the layers panel, then moving them to a new layer. This card is too complex, because there are hundreds of objects and hundreds of corresponding layers (they are not contiguous, or else I could simply click can be done with it).


    I used select > same > fill type to select all the polygons, I want that on a single layer, but I really hope that I don't have to select all the layers for each item one by one before I can move them to a new higher level layer. Does anyone know if there is a way to moving all the objects in a new layer selected without having to actually click all the layers in the Panel? Completely open to the alternative routes to my desired result!


    Thank you very much.

    Of course, after making the selection drag selection (to the right of the layer) icon on the desired layer. This will move any selected layer to the new layer.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    You will have to start without the help of the data backup, configure the phone to factory settings and start over. Follow the steps mentioned in this article:

    If you lose or forget your password restriction, you must erase your device and then put it up as a new device to remove the restriction password. Restore the device by using a backup does not delete the access code.
