Try this work-flow:
In Editor, go to the expert tab.
Open picture B, the one you wish to select something from to add to another picture.
Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the object. You will see an outline ("marching ants") surrounding the selection once it is complete
Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
Use the move tool to position object from picture B.
In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and object B on a separate layer.

I want to learn how to use the existing stationary in Mail and add my own stationary.

I use the stationary in my Mail program often. I would like to learn more about using it, changing it, making my own stationary to use in Mail - and also to allow PC users to receive it.

Here's a thread that will possibly help:

Mail templates use HTML, so those receiving your e-mail should able to view the stationery. It doesn’t matter if they’re on a PC or Mac.

Want to learn how to use "serializable"

Hello, everyone!
I have never used "serializable" function of Java before. After reading API specification of java.sun.com and some tutorials of java.sun.com dealing with "serializable", I become more puzzled. I just want to know how to use the basic function of "serializable". Can anyone introduce me some basic tutorials or samples?
Thanks in advance,
George

The function of serializable is to be able to serialize an object to a stream. Operations include writing an object to file, or to a network socket connection.
That object can then be reconstructed from that file (or the reciever on the other end of a network socket can reconstruct the object.)
Example
MyClass object = new MyClass() //MyClass implements Serializable
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("C:\test.file"); //create a fileoutputstream to write to a file
ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutpuStream(fos); //an object outputstream to wrap the fileoutputstream
out.writeObject(object); //write the object to the fileReading the object is like this
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream("C:\test.file"); // create a fileinputstream to read from a file
ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(fis) // an ObjectinputStream to wrap the FileInputStream
MyClass object = (MyClass)in.readObject();Exception catch blocks are not included but you do have to catch IOException for reading and writing, plus a few other exceptions for reading. Consult the API for details.

How Do I Learn How To Use The Terminal?

Are there any places to learn how to use the command line in Terminal?

Whywutt,
Thank you very much.
Its appreciated.

When I get an email with an HTML it does not show up and I get the following message: There are no parts that can be displayed inline.

When I receive an email with and HTML included I get the following message: "There are no parts that can be displayed inline", but no document to open.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== a month ago

I don't know. I don't have access to Iquest, and some searching on google for ''Iquest webmail "There are no parts that can be displayed inline"'' doesn't really turn up anything.
Does Iquest have their own support?

I want to learn how to use ActionScript

Where Am I With Flash?
I have adobe Flash CS3 Professional.
I have looked at the tutorials from the 'getting started'
section of the Video Workshop DVD and understood them.
I can do simple things like shape tweening, adding butons
ect...
I would like to be able to start adding script to my projects
(ActionScript 3)
I have almoast never programed before and certanly never
programed with ActionScript
I have an ambition to become a good ActionScript Programer so
I can add interactive flash into websitess
What Do I Want?
To start with, I need to know how everything is set up within
ActionScript 3 (what are variables and constants? How do you
constuct an If statment? What imported events do what? ect...)
I want to learn the above from a book (so I do not have to be
at my computer to learn). It would be nice if the book came with a
tutorial disk but this is not essential.
I have looked at the book from the following URL -
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flash-ActionScript-Dummies-Doug-Sahlin/dp/0764508318/ref=pd_bbs_6? ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1204548401&sr=8-6
However, I'm not sure if this book is for programing in
ActionScipt version 3 or another version (or for that matter
weather the fact that it is for version 1,2 or 3 matters at all).
One More Thing
Also I would like to know some usefull websites that could
help me besides the video workshop (which I have looked at).
Thank You
Ziggy

Hi Ziggy,
I suggest you take a look at "Learning ActionScript 3.0: A
Beginner's
Guide", by Rich Shupe and Zevan Rosser.
It will give you great foundation and can help you build your
skills
from ground up.
I have just barely read a few pages, so I'm basing myself on
reviews
from friends who are beginning into AS3.
Furthermore, once you've got a good grasp on the basics, I
think one of
the most important part will be improving your skills on
object oriented
programming. There's no better way for that than learning it
with your
favorite language (and AS3 is perfect for that).
I strongly suggest at that point, that you acquire Colin
Moock's
"Essential Actionscript 3" from O'Reilly's. It's a difficult
book but
don't get discouraged, and keep on reading and re-reading the
chapters
and studying the examples until you finally get it.
It will help get your feet into OOP, necessary if you are
serious in
AS3, and I can guarantee you although you might feel
disturbed for not
understanding everything right away, it is only because it
covers the
topics very thoroughly, and you'll end up understanding many
important
concepts by re-reading it over the months/years of your
practice.
That book is a bible (like all previous from the author)...
once you get
to an intermediate level, you'll most likely rarely read any
other
(except for very specific topics it doesn't cover), and you
will often
refer to the AS help to know all of the classes and functions
you'll
come to need, since you'll be fully able to understand them.
Good luck!

How to use the iMac last generation as a display for a PC

Hello,
Can someone confirm if it's possible to use an iMac last generation as a display for a PC (Windows) and if, yes, which type of cable or accessory is required?
Thanks
Stephanie

Sorry, but you probably can't. The current and previous generation of iMac can only be used as displays with other Thunderbolt-equipped systems.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3924
Only if your PC has a Thunderbolt port that supports video out would this be possible, and such systems are currently rather rare.
Regards.

Where can I learn how to use Photoshop? Is there an online manual?

I just downloaded the 30-day free trial and watched some tutorials. So far, OK, but not enough! Can anyone tell me where to find instructions?

Go to Online help page
Photoshop Help | Photoshop Help
and on the left half way down the page there are links to two PDF files
https://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/photoshop_reference.pdf
http://help.adobe.com/archive/en/photoshop/cc/2013/photoshop_reference.pdf (via the archive page)
But I always use the online facility because it is easier to search and find what you are looking for. The CC PDF is just short of 800 pages for instance. That would take a lot of reading through!
Adobe publish their Classroom in a Book series, which break down learning the apps into manageable chunks, but I still think that too dry and difficult as a way to learn Photoshop. Because it is such a complex application that can do so many things, it is MUCH better to learn those aspects that you have an immediate and ongoing use for. That way you avoid the 'use it or loose it' trap. You don't need to learn it all in one go. In fact there will be large chunks you will _never_ need to learn because you'll never have a use for them.
So I would suggest getting to grips with layers and layer masks, as a first step. Then when you get stuck, come back and ask on the forum.

How to stop the soundtrack while there is a video that playing during the presentation???

please help me... i spent hours and hours trying to figure it out!

You can if fact add an "animation" to the sound file and video file. If you select a video (or sound) you can go to animate and under "Build In" you have: "Start Video/Sound" and under "Build Out" you have stop. If you have a sound that you would like to stop at the same time as you start your video you can tie those two "animations" together. Then you can decide if you want to click to stop the audio or if you want to stop it after a specific period of time.

Learning how to use Layout Managers

The code that is included in this post is public code from the SUN tutorials. I am trying to learn how to use the layouts and add individual programs that were created to each component in the layouts.
This is what I am exploring:
I want to have a tabbed layout like the example TabbedPaneDemo located at http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/examples/components/index.html#TabbedPaneDemo. Below is the code.
In one of the tabs, I want to place a button and report in it. When the button is clicked, I want the report refreshed. Eventually I will be populating an array with data. The report I want to use the example SimpleTableDemo located at http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/examples/components/SimpleTableDemoProject/src/components/SimpleTableDemo.java. Below is the code.
From what I have learned, you can place a container inside a container. So I should be able to place the SimpleTableDemo inside the tab 4 of the TabbedPaneDemo.
If this is indeed correct, then how do I put these two things together? I am getting a little lost in all the code.
Any assistance in helping me learn how to create and use layout managers would be appreciated.

Before I did what you suggested, which I appreciate your input, I wanted to run the code first.
I tried to run the SimpleTableDemo and received the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: SimpleTableDemo (wrong name: componets/SimpleTableDemo)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)
at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(Unknown Source)
at java.net.URLClassLoader...
there are several more lines but as I was typing them out I thought that maybe the code is not written to run it in the command window. The errors seem to be around the ClassLoader. Is that correct? On the SUN example page when you launch the program a Java Web Start runs. So does this mean that the code is designed to only run in WebStart?
