Vector mask thumbnails in the layers panel

• Using vector masks to mix the layers

  I selected a part of a front and copied on a new layer. I then made some changes to the new layer with the tools fluidity and want now to merge the copied layer returns with the original layer. I create a vector mask on the layer and I start painting the edges of the new layer of black to blend it back with the under layer. Although I see the results, I'm not quite clear on what it is.

  1. by painting with black is far just erase parts of this new layer to allow the under layer to show through? He's doing any sort of mixture or is just erasing the masked layer?

  2. How is this different from just using the tool eraser to erase the updated layer and leave pieces under Show return?

  Thank you.

  To answer your other question, the only time you want to apply the mask is if you want to remove the mask for a reason any. But then you lose the advantage of a mask on the Eraser tool, you cannot change your mind and change the mix. I suggest that you keep the mask and do not apply. The results in the composite image is the same.

• How to enlarge the layers panel?

  can I enlarge my layers panel? pretty hard to see.

  There are several ways that you can develop the layers panel, according to the way that your tool panels is ready.

  The first option is to hover over the top of the layers panel border, until you get a vertical arrow double-ended (the screenshot below displays the arrow as a hand, but you should see an arrow). When it appears, click and drag to the top. According to the other panels, you opened, you will not be able to drag it to the top. This was the case for me, since I have other two panels open above my layers panel:

  

  The second option is to use the handle on the lower right of the layers panel, as shown in the screenshot below. When you hover over this handle, you will see an arrow diagonal amphidromous. When you see this, click and drag down. In my case, since there are no other signs open under the layers panel, I was able to expand the layers panel to the bottom of my screen:

  

  A third option is to 'float' the layers panel. To do this, click and hold on the bar menu in the layers panel, as shown below. Then, slide the Panel to the side of your screen. You can then change the size of the Panel by using the handle specified in the previous step.

  

  If you want to increase the size of the thumbnail of the layer (the little picture next to the names of layers, as we can see in the screenshots above), click the menu on the right side of the layers panel:

  

  In the drop-down menu, select "Control Panel Options."... »

  

  You can then choose a size that fits your needs in the options box that appears.

  A quick edit: If you know you are going to need on a regular basis a large sign layers, click on the drop down menu by far at the top right of the image to Photoshop application.

• Is it possible to copy all the layers in the layers panel and paste them in a new document?

  The content of each layer will be different on each document so I don't want to copy. I have 12 documents to be used in a calendar and I want all the layers as well as their names and colors to be the same in each document. I already have all the pages designed and built, but personal information is to be added, and I want each of them to match all the others.

  Basically, all I want to do is to copy the contents of the layers panel and past in each of the other documents.

  I just create a page at the end of the document w / layers and on this page, add an item by layer. Also, if you have 15 layers, drag the small fifteen frames on the page and the layer icon to assign each image to another layer.

  Then in the Pages panel menu, choose move Pages. Choose this 'page of layers' to move to your receiving document (another of your calendar documents), Destination: end of the Document.

  The receiving document will get all the layers. Remove all items (15 views) on the extra page and the layers remain.

  Next time you make a schedule, you should check the add-on for InDesign Calendar Wizard. You will cry all the time you wasted it making manually ;-(

• Found and lost in the layers of the CC PS 2015 can be selected in the document, not only in the layers panel?

  Seriously, I don't know if it's a FigNewton of my imagination or a real change in the Photoshop workspace, but when I started using PS CC 2015, a few months ago, I found myself moving layers on the screen simply by clicking on it in the document and moving them, instead going to the layers panel , by choosing the correct layer, then return to the document and move the layer or change. Is this a real change or I dream? Especially, if it's an option, I can't do more. He stopped. How do I resurrect it?

  Automatic selection / auto-move has been there for several versions. Check your settings of the tool at the top when you use the move tool.

• Place in the layers panel

  I used to be able to see the selection tool and layer I was working in InDesign, and now he's disappeared. When I try to move an object to another layer, I can't go in the layers panel and use the selection box to drag because he went to a new layer. Is there a setting to turn this back on?

• There is text on my photo, but there is no text layer in the layers panel. What is everything?

  There is text on my photo, but there is no text layer in the layers panel. What is everything?

  Hi juliannz,

  The layers panel will contain the text only if you have saved the original under a PSD file.

  If it was saved as a jpeg, png, it not the layers.

• Location of the image next to the layers panel

  The image is sized: adjustment on the screen.

  Something I did caused the image to focus on the screen instead of being completely to the left of the layers panel.  The image is moved to the right and I can't see the right side of the image. Previously, adjustment on the screen simply filled the space to the left of the layers panel.

  I closed PS, rebooted etc. Happening to all images. How to reset the default size so that I can see the whole picture when the layers panel is opened. Now, when I open any image, it is smaller as shown which is adapted for the screen; Yet, a part is behind the Panel

  Thanks in advance!

  Nice day!

  Could you please post a screenshot with the relevant panels visible?

  Not turning off"use graphics processor" in the Performance preference and restarting Photoshop have a bearing on the issue.

• Image in the layers panel

  When I put an image in PS CS5, in the layers panel, instead of an image of the photo, I get a white image with a brush inside.  How can I get the photo to display image?  Thank you.

  Perhaps the option of the palette.  It uses CC but CS5 options are basically the same.

  

• How to select several objects on the layers panel in Illustrator CC

  I have a work of guge and I need to select a small group (about 10-100) of objects from 4000 bunk and then group objects ' em/split-to-layers for ease of use (this is an infographic of the human body for medical institute)

  There IS NO way by selecting in the Web because they are overlapping and sometimes not visible at all.

  in CS5 there was a function to select several objects to the icon selection Alt + click - move on the right in the Layers panel.

  Now the mode duplication towers - on when I try to run it.

  Then.

  Ho I select several object without having to click through thousands of them? (I need to drag-select)

  IM totally frustrated.
  

  As long there is no deliberately locked object, you can do the following:

  Drag on the lock column in the layer panel

  Object > unlock all (there is a shortcut for this)

  -> unlocked objects are selected
