Why can I not edit my background layer?

Hello!

I ran an action (that I bought) on a photo.

Then I downloaded on a slide show for my client to see.

Now, she wants to buy it, so I need to reopen and edit the person's face.

Which layer edit on?  Nothing changes when I'm working on the background layer. Well, I can see.  I can see it when I do the invisible layer.

I have CS5.  I just changed to CS.  I remember this work on CS.

Thank you

Jennifer

Is that what you want to do, cloning & healing etc?

Whatever it is, you need not to do it again. Here are some non-destructive options:

1) there is usually a place in the the layer stack (IE, above the pixelated layers and adjustment layers below. In this case probably between the Local contrast and Compression of the range of layers) where you can insert a blank layer and clone it with the tool set "current & below".

2) click on the background layer, then CMD + J (mac) to duplicate it and clone of the strike. (This may not be fully the effect according to the mode of these layers above it pixelated belnd, and what you're trying to do below.)

3) go to the top layer, CMD + OPT + MST + E to make a layer of composite to the pf albums battery and work on or above strike.

And if you want to work in a destructive way, drag the lock icon from the BG layer to the trash and work directly on it. But see the warnings from #2 above.

  • Why can I not make my background of the transparent sidebar the way where he was?

    After you have reinstalled Vista after a hard disk crash, I can't get the sidebar to have a transparent background, the way that it used to be under the original installation. It isn't even an option for this in the sidebar help/Setup. I don't think I made it transparent voluntarily last time - it is all automatic. Now, I can't make sure, evenintentionally.

    I am now using Windows 7.
    For 6 years I have been using Vista, I never activated Aero, not to mention transparency. Reason: huge consumption of resources and slow down the performance.

    Anyway, you are not supposed to activate the transparency first before you can see the sidebar with a transparent background?

    Here is the tutorial to activate the Areo glass transparency:

    If your Vista came pre-installed in your old PC, then this is an OEM license that cannot be transferred to your new PC.

    To analyze and solve problems for Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the report produced by the MGADiag (download and save to the desktop - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 ) tool
    Once saved, run the tool.
    Click on the button continue, which will produce the report.

  • do not appear the background layer

    Hello, when I give to merge the layers do not appear the background layer, and when I go to check jpg indicates that the layers are decoupled. Thanks advanced

    Javier,

    I'll assume that you don't want your layers and want to generate a 'flat' file a JPEG image, for example. For sharing, download, print, etc.

    Can you save a copy 'flattened '?    File > SAVE as.     In unrolling choose JPEG. -It uses by default saves a copy so that you keep your PSD layered in case you have future adjustments where the layers would be beneficial.

    I hope this helps.

  • Why can I not just use DreamWeaver?

    I bought a subscription to DreamWeaver, almost a year ago, but whenever I try to open the program, it tells me that my trial period has expired. When I followed the instructions "Of this software license", he told me to open a session and wonder a serial number. When I type the serial number: exact serial number that is listed under my username and password - it tells me the serial number is not valid. Why can I not just use the software? I had to pay a monthly fee for 11 months now, and I have to go through this charade whenever I comand to use the software. Used computers for 30 years and never experienced something like that. Any advice?

    Hi JohnLynnBob,

    You must remove all the entries of Adobe since the 'hosts' file in your computer.

    The location of the hosts file is

    For windows:-C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts (open it with Notepad)

    For Mac:-Finder window Open---> click on top go---> go to folder---> Type '/ etc'---> press enter - hosts (open it with text edit)

    If you see all the entries in the hosts Adobe file delete them, save the file and then launch the product---> license this software---> identify you---> the subscription will be activated.

    Thank you

  • Why can I not use shift to select several thumbnails of Pages?

    Why can I not use the SHIFT key to select several thumbnails of Pages?  I need to transfer several pages in the Pages of a document to another document, and I can't select these multiple pages in the thumbnails by pressing the shift or command key.  Help, please!

    By selecting several thumbnails, and copy and paste any thumbnails in another document of v5.6.1 Pages is not supported. You get to select the contents of a real individual page and then copy and paste between documents.

    In Pages ' 09 v4.3, you can select several thumbnails and then copy / paste these in the Gallery of thumbnails of another document. If the Pages ' 09 has been installed prior to any publication pages v5, older Pages move silently in Applications: iWork ' 09 file. You would have to export your content Pages v5.6.1 as document Pages ' 09 for backward compatibility.
