Copying selection to new layer and changing hue/saturation?

I made a selection around someone's teeth and I copied it to a new layer.
1. On the new layer, using Hue/Saturation, what is the best way to remove some of the yellow in the teeth? I chose yellow from the drop-down, though I am doing something wrong because the teeth are not appearing more white.
2. Is it a better idea to do this as an adjustment layer instead of copying it to a different layer, or is it just a different way to do the same thing?
Thanks.

"If you create a new layer it is likely to create more additional data than the Mask of an Adjustment Layer."
1. What do you mean by additional data?
If you lift a part of an image onto a new layer that layer has as many channels as the image (3 for RGB, 4 for CMYK etc.) whereas an Adjsutment Layer has one channel (its Mask), so the file would increase in size more in the first case (unless it is a grayscale image or possibly if the layer has no detail etc.).
2. To get rid of yellow in the teeth, are you suggesting to slightly desaturate in the Masters and than a bit more in the yellows? So doing it to both?
Yes, but just try and see if it helps with your image.

  • Javascript: copy an object to a new layer and tracing it

    Hello everybody:
    I'm using Illustrator CS5 on Mac. I need to copy an objecto to a new layer and tracing it. I'm trying to execute the script above. There is no problem with the copy to a new layer, but Illustrator returns the error "newItem.trace is not a function". Sorry because this is my first script and i'm lost.
    Thank you in advance.
        var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
        var sel = myDoc.selection[0];
      if ( myDoc.selection.length > 0 ) {
        var newLayer = myDoc.layers.add();
        var newItem = sel.duplicate( newLayer, ElementPlacement.PLACEATEND );
        var myTrace = newitem.trace();
        var myOpts = myTrace.tracing.tracingOptions;
        myOpts.tracingModeType = 'TRACINGMODEBLACKANDWHITE';
        app.redraw();
        myTrace.tracing.expandTracing();

    Hi Jose, if your selection is other than PlacedItems or RasterItems, you have to rasterize it first.

  • I created a new layer and copied the contents of another layer into the new layer. Now whenever I ed

    I have a template that I am editing. I have created new layers by duplicating an existing layer. The problem I am having is that anytime I make a change to a duplicated layer it changes the original as well. ie if I attempt to edit the action script on the new layer it changes the action script on the original? It seems as though they are linked and I can not find a way to unlink them??

    You should be able to edit the immediately present contents of different layers without affecting other layers, but if you are editing anything at a level below the layer, such as doubleclicking to edit an object in that timeline, you are changing it anywhere it is used.

    I have an Adobe Flash Professionals digital classroom book and was following all steps easily until it ask me to select the text tool and change it from classic to tfl in the property inspector. I looked and all that drops down is dynamic, static, and input. Where is the TFL and Classic ? I watched adobe learning center but he was using CS5. Can anyone please help?

    Hi,
    Do you use Flash CS6 to follow the instructions in the classroom book? If yes, then you can find it under text drop down for an AS3 Document as shown below
    If you follow the instruction in Flash CC or Flash CC2014 then you will not find this option as this is deprecated.
    Thanks!

  • Changing hue/saturation

    I make a selection and choose Image > Adjustments > Hue/Saturation and it seems the colors are completely off when I have the colorize option selected.
    Should this checkbox not be selected when changing colors this way? I know that this could also be done with an adjustment layer, I am just curious why the colors seem off.
    Thanks.

    If your goal is to keep a full range of colors, but skew them on the spectrum, you'll want to make sure Colorize is turned off.
    Colorize works by taking the average value (pure grey) and setting it to be equivalent to your new color (in the Hue/Saturation sliders). This then gets tinted and shaded (using the whites and blacks in your document). Essentially, Colorize fakes a dutotone image (the only colors will be the one you select + black).

  • Copy an application with plugins into a new application and change theme...

    I copied an application (theme 23) with plugins into a new application and then changed the theme to theme 26. After that, all plugins (skillbuilders super lov, skillbuilders modal, and notification plugin) didn't work at all. However, when I changed the theme back to the original theme, things worked.
    I have applications that use theme 26 with plugins and they all work fine. I think the problem is related to copying one application, containing plugins, into a new application. Does anyone have any idea of it?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Most plugins have css,images or js files which can be placed on the server.
    It might be that you have placed those files on the server in the theme directory.
    If you change the theme then the plugin can not find those files any more.

  • Copy BPM to new SC and transport

    Hi Experts,
    I have a requirement to copy existing NW-BPM process to new software component version and have to transport to higher environments.
    And also suggest me to create directly on NWDI or create locally and deploy.
    Could you please guide me on this requirement.
    Regards,
    SP.

    H Siddant,
    Thanks for the Quick reply.
    I am proceeding as per your suggestion.
    As per your comments,
    I have downloaded the total BPM project to local file.
    While creating a new DC, it is asking for the existing SC to refer and I can only see my SC where all BPMs present.
    Issue here is to avoid version log for BPMs, we want to create a new SC and add my existing bpm project to that.(we have to do some changes to BPM after we add that to new SC).
    We thought to add bpm to new SC and do transport seperatley for that SC.
    And when I try to create a new product itself to have new SC, and when I select my  Development Configuration as my PI server, it is saying the error as:
    Selected Development Configuration does not contain an empty and writable product description SC
    Could you please put some light on this issue.
    And please also share some info on BPM transportation.
    and what exactly we transport is it SC ? DC ? or total product ???
    Regards,
    SP

  • Moving to new PC and changing path to files

    Hi! I'm moving from a Windows XP machine to a new Vista machine. My iTunes library is external on a samba share so the path in my iTunes xml library file is: /Jester/music/ etc... Well, there's some bugs in getting Windows Vista to see Samba shares so I have to view it by IP address. I've mounted that IP address as a drive, so I need to just substitute the above with "M:/". I've tried copying my old library files over. If I leave them intact, iTunes sees the library & rating but can't find the songs (I have 8000+ so I don't want to go refind each one). If I try to change the XML file, iTunes apparently reloads the library from the itl file. I also tried the hack to corrupt the itl file so it would rebuild from the xml file but apparently that doesn't work anymore in iTunes 7, it just reverts back to an empty library. Any suggestions?

    Thought that I would post back and say that I was able to create a Backup for a catalog under PSE 3, which required 4 CDs.
    Then I ran the Restore on the new PC where only PSE 4 is installed. The Restore ran using all 4 CDs and at the end I received the message that the Catalog was from a prior version and needed to be converted. I said OK to the catalog conversion, which ran and then displayed thumbnails in the Photo Browser. When I scrolled thru the photo well there were normal "first time" delays that I attribute to the building of the thumbnails.
    As of now the v4 catalog appears to be updated for the new drive and folder location on this system. The associated photo files seem generally OK, but I am still checking specifics.
    For now I will run with the photo files on the only drive, the system drive. However, eventually I will probably add a second internal or external drive.
    Colin and Chuck, I decided to try the PS Elements functions first and keep your information in reserve in case I discover a problem. However, I am still very grateful for the assistance.
