How do you create a new layer in a specific group layer?

I'm trying to work within a particular group and every time I click the new layer button or paste a jpg image into the document, the new items appear at the very top of the layers panel and I have to move it down the list and place it in the group I'm working in.  Is it possible to paste an image or create a new layer so that it appears in a specific layer  group?

Yes, but you need to from your layers palette flyout menu remove the check in front of paste remembers layers.
Or else the bitmaps in your clipboard have no illustrator layer assigned, therefore Illustrator creates or adds to an existing layer 1.

  • How do I create a new layer that is only visible in the current animation frame?

    Normally when you create a new layer it's automatically visible in all animation frames. I want to set it so that the new layer is only visible within the frame it was created.

    I was doing some playing with frames just to verify what is going on. and as far as I can see when you create a new layer it is applied to the last frame only, but if you create a new frame is is copied.
    What I did was create 2 layers one a background gradient, second is a raster rectangle.
    For frames, the first is the background, second is the rectangle and the third is the same rectangle, now I can click on either frame and move that rectangle.

  • How can I create a new layer that is a gradient?

    Hi, i'm very new to photoshop scripting and am having some trouble.
    I'm looking for a way to take an image i have and set it to have a gradient opacity as it approaches the middle, my thought on how to do that was to just create a layer that is a gradient from top left to bottom right and then attach that as a vector mask.
    Any ideas on how I could create this gradient layer in script, or a better method of doing this opacity gradient?
    Thanks in advance,
    Levianth

    You could try this:
    // 2012, use it at your own risk;
    #target photoshop
    if (app.documents.length > 0) {
    var myDocument = app.activeDocument;
    var theLayer = myDocument.activeLayer;
    if (theLayer.isBackgroundLayer == true) {theLayer.isBackgroundLayer = false};
    // create gradient layer;

  • How do you create a new account for a family member?

    My daughter and I both have Ipods, and want to setup SEPARATE accounts. Itunes 7 worked great, but now when we 'upgraded' to 8, it MERGED all our files. So I thought I had a separate account, but it turns out when I load a new song, it goes into HER Itunes files. She deleted all my info, and I REALLY want a separate account (that sticks).
    My songs are still in my directory under "Mikes Itunes", but when I reloaded them into what I thought was a fresh entry, it turns out it went into my daughter's Itunes file too! What is up with Itunes 8? and how can you create a TRUE separate account so I have control over MY songs!?

    First, let's make it easier to swap between accounts. In the Accounts pane of System Preferences click on the Login Options (after unlocking the pane). Enable fast user switching. This will put a new menu in the top right of the screen. You can then swap to the other account without having to log out of the current one.
    Log into the original account. Select the folder you want access from the other account and choose Get Info from the file menu. There is a section called Sharing & Permissions. You will need to click on the padlock to make changes. Click on the + to add permissions for the other user account by selecting the user account from list that appears. Set the permission for that account to read only. Once you have it listed then choose the "Apply to enclosed items" from the gear menu below the list. This should give you access from the other account to that folder and any folders contained in it.
    For iTunes you will want to do this to the Music folder, giving you access to the files below. From within iTunes you can select Add to Library from the file menu, and then select the music from the other account to that account's iTunes library. Once you have set up the new library whoever's library is the original can clean up the library to remove any music they don't want (now that it's in the new account).

    If css style panel is missing then you can reset your designer.  In CS6 the process was:

    See this picture:
    Now to create a new style should be easy.  Just see this picture:
    I don't use CC so I don't know if the process is still the same.

  • In Address Book, how do you create a new group under "On my Mac", not under "iCloud"?

    In Address Book there are groups under "On my Mac" and groups under "iCloud".  When I do File -> "Create new group", the new group always goes under "iCloud".  How can I make a new group to go under "On my Mac".  I also tried dragging the new group from the iCloud area to the "On my Mac" area, but that doesn't do it.  Address Book is version 6.1.3.  Thanks for your help.

    Maybe look in the Preferences > Accounts & disable the iCloud account? That should force it to create a local group then re-enable the iCloud account. I would use the 'File > Export… Addressbook archive' to make a backup before you begin, but it should be fine.
    I'm not sure 10.6.8 supported iCloud natively, so perhaps that is why it is being wierd?
