Free Transform multiple layers at the same time (only selected part)

Hi,
i have two layers - one contains color and second one contains outline. I want to select a part of the image and free transform both the layers at the same time. (so when i for example move or rotate the selected part of my example, both the color and outline moves at the same time). Layers must stay separated, process must be sort of quick, i would love to use this all the time when drawing etc.
- Only way i managed to make this somewhat happen was to select the desired part of the image -> save the selection -> new layer via copy (on first layer) -> reselect the saved selection -> new layer via copy (on the second layer) -> select both of the new layers -> free transform. Warp doesnt work but other transforms do. But still this process is too slow and distracting even when having all the required commands hotkeyed. Is there a faster way?
Any tips are welcome!

@Trevor.Dennis
i did understand, but as i said ctrl clicking the new layer only selects visible pixels in it, and my layers dont cover the whole canvas, especially not the outline layer, so ctrl click will only select that noodle of pixels and thats not usable in the other layer. (doing selection in the other layer first isnt a solution)
Better description of what exactly im after:
im manually drawing characters and i keep the their black "ink" lines/outlines on separate layer from the color layer. From time to time i want to transform small part of the character, lets say warp or rotate just its leg to fix or iterate, but i want to transform both the outline and color layer at the same time with that rotation so i see realtime how it looks. I would use this all the time if it was doable quickly. Transforms and puppetwarp are so powerful when drawing that as last resort i will have to switch to drawing everything on single layer.

  • How to change blending mode on multiple layers at the same time

    I'm using CS5. I have a document with about 70 layers. I would like to change the blending mode to "lighten" for each layer. Is there an easy way to do this?

    Photoshop doesn't allow multiple layer editing. That's why the styles are grayed out. Only 1 layer at a time.
    What version are you talking about?
    CS5 definitely let’s one apply a Style to multiple Layers.
    rfcommagere, I don’t know how to make it much clearer:
    • set the Blending Mode on one Layer
    • with that Layer selected create a Style with »Include Layer Blending Options« checked
    • select all other Layers that should have that Blending Mode
    • click the Style in the Styles Panel

  • In CS6, is it still possible to edit multiple layers at the same time?

    I often color code layers in the layers panel.
    In CS5 I could select several layers and change the color for all at once. Doesn't seem to work anymore in CS6.
    Screen shot: http://d.pr/i/uTjh

    Hey thanks guys, this has been bugging me for weeks since I upgraded to CS6. I'm used to double clicking to manipulate several layers at once. Have been double clicking one at a time for a while. So glad I don't have to do that anymore. Cheers!

  • Lightroom CC issues with multiple export at the same time

    Back before Lightroom updated to the CC version, I was able to use export presets to send 4 different versions of the photos I'm working on at the same time (A Full Size for client at certain size, full size for myself, web-sized with watermark and a thumbnail). Since updating to the CC version, I'm only able to start the export process on two of these versions before the system simply becomes crippled and I cannot even navigate through Lightroom without it chugging along.
    For reference, I'm running a 2014 rMBP with 16GB of RAM, LR is the only app open at the time and it's showing that I have roughly 6GB of RAM free when attempting this export.
    TL;DR: LR5 worked wiht multiple exports at the same time, but LRCC now chugs after 2 exports are started

    Re: "Selecting video in Messages, now starts Face time for video. Face time is one to one only."
    Apple "Messages" supports two different types of video conferencing. It's become more than a little confusing. If you (or the person on the other end) ONLY have accounts set up for Apple's "iMessage" service (associated with your Apple ID and "iCloud") you may see the video symbol, but when you click on it you will be connected via FaceTime which is limited a 1-to-1 video conference.
    However, if you have set up an AIM account in Messages (you may already have an AIM account ID if you once used iChat for video, audio and screensharing) and the person at the other end also has an AIM account you will be connected via AIM and will be able to do screen sharing and multi-person video conferences just like the old iChat, i.e. you'll have iChat Theater features, up to 4-way conferencing, etc.
    It can get very confusing if, for example, you've signed up for AIM using a .me or .cloud email address. But once you have it set up and learn to recognise the way Messages switches between AIM and iMessage all the old iChat features work just fine in Messages.

  • Can I export multiple folders at the same time, keeping the album structure

    I'm exporting all of my photos from 2010 so far. Is there a way to export multiple folders at the same time, while keeping the existing album structure? It seems that when I try it, iPhoto exports them all to the same folder.
    I really don't want to do this one album at a time, and here's why -
    I'd like to select all of the albums, then export, using the plugin, to WalMart so that I can order prints.

    Check out [iPhotoToDisk|http://www.iphototodisk.com/index.html]
    I'd like to select all of the albums, then export, using the plugin, to WalMart so that I can order prints.
    Why not upload to Walmart from iPhoto? Check out the first option here:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • CRVS2010 - open multiple rpts at the same time, like sheets in a xls file ?

    Hi all,
    is that possible to open multiple reports at the same time, like sheets in a excell file ?
    Is that possible create tabs beside the MainReport tab ? or include reports in the Group Tree ? how can I do it ?
    The application is in asp.net with VS2010 and CR2010.
    The reports used to be in excell with three sheets and now we are migrating them to crystal reports, how can I create the report with those three sheets ?
    thanks !

    I'll make the suggestion to the Program Management group.
    You may want to do a post to the [Crystal Reports Design|SAP Crystal Reports; forum and ask them how they's fake that sort of a requirement. E.g.; there may be some way to make this report look the way you want, but it will be best to ask the experts. Don't mention CRVS2010 as they don't support it and most likely you will not get an answer.

  • Can you opening multiple albums at the same time in Photo (not iPhoto)?

    When converting the iPhoto library to Photo most of the albums that were in place in iPhoto converted to albums in Photo . . . .but not all. Some were retained as events mainly those that were folders within an album. In order to move them to the right album I would like to have multiple albums open at the same time (side by side) so that I can make sure not to duplicate photos or move them to the wrong spot.
    I cant see how to do this, it seems that I can need to open one album and check phots and then close to look within and other and rely on memory. There must be a more efficient and accurate way to do this?

    All of the events in iPhoto were converted to albums and are located in the Folder titled iPhoto Event in the sidebar of Photos. 
    You can't open multiple albums at the same time.  You can create a smart album that will do essentially the same thing with the following criteria:
    Album is "A"
    Album is "B".
    The smart album will display all of the photos in those two albums.

  • How to support multiple users at the same time?

    Hi all,
    I have a Labview software which controls a analyzer via GPIB connector. When user A is using the software, user B has to wait until A is done. But actually, the analyzer is not very busy, when user A is using the software.
    I want user A, B, C and D can use the software at the same time. just like we can open Multiple websites at the same time.
    How can I program the software, so that the software can be open multiple times? Do you have any example?
    Thanks a lot.

    Are all the users going to be measuring the exact same thing from the same instrument?
    It would be possible to write a separate instrument server application that would handle all the direct interactions with the instrument. When one of the users needed to access the instrument, they would gain access to it through this server.
    The big, Big, BIG caveat is that each interaction with the instrument would need to be atomic. In other words each access would need to configure the instrument, initiate the reading, report the results, and then reset the instrument back to some known default value.

  • How do you apply a master page to multiple documents at the same time?

    How do you apply a master page to multiple documents at the same time?

    Hi friends,
    Thank you for trying to help me out.
    Let me explain it a bit to remove the ambiguity.
    I have 10 documents nested under a book. Each of these documents have 'n' number of pages. I want to apply my custom made master page "First" to the first page of all these 10 documents in one go. The remaining pages of the documents have to be in default "Right" master page format. How will I do it?
    I tried selecting all the documents and importing the formats from another document with the custom made "First" master page. The master page format is getting imported but the first page of all the documents still remain with the default "Right" master page format.
    I think now my question is more clear...

  • WDS 2012 R2 - Cannot PXE multiple clients at the same time

    Hello All,
    This is my first post on here so I apologize if this is the wrong place.  I work for a school district and we are implementing WDS 2012 R2.  We've been extremely satisfied with the speeds and ease of use through unattend files.  However, for
    the past month I've been looking for a possible answer to a problem that has plagued us from day one of implementation.
    So here's the problem:
    I have a stand alone WDS server which is not a domain controller and is not our DHCP server.  I have IP helpers and broadcast forwarders setup on the network.  As well as option 66 and 67 in DHCP.  So far so good right!
    Well that's partially right.  When we boot one client at a time to the WDS server.  Everything works as intended.  We can TFTP the necessary files from the WDS server.  Everything boots up and we're off and running.
    However, if we boot up two or more clients at the same time.  The WDS server never responds to the traffic.  The clients get their DHCP information.  They start the referral and download from the WDS server, but get no response.  I'm
    really hoping that someone on here would have some insight of something I can try.  I've about exhausted my list of peers and contacts.  They're all stumped as well and were smart enough to stay with 2008 WDS.
    I would prefer to stick with 2012 R2 since it's setup and working for the most part.  With only this one hiccup.
    Thanks in advance for any guidance!

    Hello Daniel,
    I appreciate the reply and apologize for taking so long to get back to this.   Things have been a little hectic over here.
    I have tried everything on this forum and I am still unsuccessful in PXE booting multiple clients at the same time.
    Multicast is enabled on the server, and it works for the clients.  However, as stated in the original post.  I cannot boot multiple machines at the same time.  I can start them from the image selection screen around the same time though.  So,
    that appears to be working fine.

  • Run invoke-command on multiple machines at the same time

    Hey all so I read that if I store my New-pssession in a variable then used that in my invoke-command it would run all computers at the same time.
    $a = Get-Content "C:\Users\cody-horton\Desktop\list.txt"
    $session
    for($i=0;$i -lt $a.Length;$i++){
    if(!(Test-Connection -Cn $a[$i] -BufferSize 16 -Count 1 -ea 0 -quiet)){
    Write-Host $a[$i] -foregroundcolor red
    else{
    $session = New-PSSession $a[$i]
    Invoke-Command -Session $session -FilePath "\\My computer\C`$\Users\public\Documents\zip folder.ps1"
    What exactly am I doing wrong I just need to run this script on multiple machines at the same time.
    Thanks.
    Edit: Also what would be the best way to close all the sessions thanks.

    Hi there,
    So what I think you are doing wrong here is that you are overwriting the value in $Session everytime you executed code inside for loop. try the below:
    $a = Get-Content "C:\Users\cody-horton\Desktop\list.txt"
    $session = @() #define this as an array
    for($i=0;$i -lt $a.Length;$i++){
    if(!(Test-Connection -Cn $a[$i] -BufferSize 16 -Count 1 -ea 0 -quiet)){
    Write-Host $a[$i] -foregroundcolor red
    else{
    $session += New-PSSession $a[$i] #add the new session to the array, at the end it will be a collection of sessions
    Invoke-Command -Session $session -FilePath "\\My computer\C`$\Users\public\Documents\zip folder.ps1" #I think the above one won't work..first you need to copy the script locally on the machine and then execute it#Why this won't work because of Second-Hop Authentication
    Have put comments where I edited your code.
    Hope this helps

  • Accessing multiple portals at the same time?

    Is it possible to access multiple portals at the same time?
    For example, what I want to achieve is different properties (layout,
    portlets, look & feel) for different groups of users accessing the same
    portal. The Associated Groups part on the Portal admin page is not
    fulfilling our requirements. So we decided to have different portals for
    different groups of users, all working through one portal, and accessing
    their custom portals. Is this achievable?
    What we are thinking is: put the common functionality in the repository
    portal directory, and the custom portlets/jsps in the group-specific portal
    directories. This way we can customize portal behavior for different groups
    of users. Is this achievable?
    Thanks.
