How to copy a selection in channel mode?

I have photoshop cs6, and I was just wondering how to save a selection in channel mode.
So for example (below), If i wanted to only copy the part of this picture that has white and the plant in the picture how would i do this? I've tried colour range but it didn't work so I am very stuck. Please help! Thanks

The problem is that you are still editing the alpha channel, which can be usefull too.
So before attempting to copy or edit, you need to go back to the layers pallete. Here's how it would look step by step:
- go to channels pallete
- highlight Alpha 1
- Click "Load Channel as Selection"
- once the selection is active (running ants around the vase), highlight the RGB channel
- go back to your Layers pallete
- copy/paste the selection as needed (or hit crtl+J) to copy the selection to its own layer
- duplicate the layer as needed
so basically, before trying to copy, you first need to go back to the layers pallete, after loading the selection
hope this makes sense, please post back if this doesn't work.

  • How to copy screen selections?

    Is there native facility in Mac OS X for selecting and copying screen shots or must a third party application be used? I need to do this to copy and save graphics and photos from the web but also to send screen shots of error mesages and dialogs to tech support. Thanks in advance for any insights.

    To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
    If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
    If you want to attach a screenshot to a response here, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
    This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
    ⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
    ⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.

  • How can I select a channel on the RT target with a VI on the host?

    Maybe I'm trying to pound a square peg into a round hole, so please let me know if I'm abusing LV, but ...
    I'm trying to parameterize our RT VI app that deals with digital output channels.  We use the same basic VI for multiple configurations.  The only thing that changes is the channel allocations.  So for instance, actuator 1 is on port0/line5 for one configuration and port1/line2 in another.  I really don't like the idea of modifying the VI every time we have a new configuration because it makes configuration management insane.  If I make a change to the basic VI, now I have to upate N copies of the VI and hope I catch everything.
    So I'm making the main app VI read an XML configuration file that specifies all the allocations.  Sounds great at first, but how do I create the XML file?  I created a VI that manages the data in the VI, allowing the user to add/remove channels and edit the name and channel and then save it to an XML file.  The configuration is comopsed of an array of clusters, with the cluster containing the name and DAQmx channel.  My intent was to let the user select the channel from the list of valid channels by using the DAQmx Global Channel control.  But the problem is, the configure VI runs on the host, which doesn't see any of the channels because they are on the RT target.  But if I try to run the configure VI on the target, it refuses to deploy because I have GUI widgets.
    Is my approach fundamentally flawed?  Is there a better way of parameterizing our VI?  Or is there a trick to getting access to the valid channels on the host VI?  The information MUST be available because after all, when I modify a target VI and select a global channel constant, I'm doing this on the host.
    Thanks,
    Keith.

    Hi Keith,
    you can handle the channels like "normal" strings. See the attached picture.
    Hope it helps.

  • How do you copy a selected area of multiple layers?

    I'm trying to create an animated gif using PS and I can't find out how to copy multiple layers. Right now I have 110 different layers and I want to select the same portion of every layer and copy it into a new file without flattening the image. So I want to be able to start, and end with, 110 layers. The 110 different layers are all separate pictures of my desktop and I want to crop out most of the desktop to focus on one area in particular. Is there anyway to do this?

    One could delete, select next layer, delete, select next layer … which should be Action-able.
    Or duplicate the image and crop it to the intended size.
    Or why not simply put the Layers into a Group and add a Layer Mask to that?

  • How to copy only part of a binary file after selecting a start and stop byte?

    I need to copy a selectable block of binary data from one file to a new file.  The binary file is made up of several data widths (8/16/32 signed and unsigned).  If I use a read binary function I will need to account for the data types within the file.  I was hoping to do a copy function with a start and stop byte control. Any pointers?  

    The attached Rube Goldberg Code copies two arrays of clusters to two arrays of indicators.
    Ben
    BTW: It does so by writtng the flattened data to a fixed length file and decoding same on the read.

  • How to copy selected files in Finder (applescript)

    I don't like to use hotkeys (such as CMD+C, etc.) and would prefer to copy and paste files in OS X with the mouse just like I did in Windows.
    Unfortunately Finder has no such copy and paste buttons in its toolbar like I know them from Windows Explorer. It bothers me that I always have to use the context menu or hotkeys. So I intend to write small scripts with AppleScript and move them into the Finder toolbar to have my custom made buttons.
    Unfortunately I am newbie to Applescript and did not yet manage to get such simple script to work despite many trials.
    The first script must only copy marked/selected files or folders in Finder to the clipboard so that I can paste them into another Finder window.
    The second script should simply paste the clipboard content into Finder.
    I tried this but nothing is being copied:
    tell application "Finder"
    activate
    end tell
    tell application "System Events"
    key down {command}
    keystroke "c"
    key up {command}
    end tell
    Would be great if somebody can help me with these few lines.
    Thanks in advance

    meanwhile got a reply in another forum that works like charm exactly as I want...I post it here below for future newbies...
    tell application "Finder" activate
    delay 0.2
    tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Finder"
    keystroke "c" using command down
    end tell
    end tell
    end tell
    save as program and then drag to Finder toolbar.
    You can even change the icon.
    Thanks for your attention guys

  • Audigy 2 ZS always in 2 channel mode, no S/PDIF output, how to f

    Just a day or two ago my Audigy 2 ZS Platinum decided to always output mono or stereo 2-channel mode, it seems. Specifically, even though I have a 7. speaker setup (Creative GigaWorks S750), the Speaker Settings app plays everything through the front two channel speakers. THX Console appears to play everything through all speakers. Worse yet, I cannot hear any S/PDIF audio, including 2-channel PCM and 5.-channel Dolby Digital/DTS encoded material that is input by optical in. Even WinDVD 7 has "S/PDIF Output" grayed out, which makes no sense unless something is wrong with the drivers.
    Playing DVD-Audio from Creative MediaSource DVD Audio Player, however, outputs surround audio just fine through the rear speakers.
    I also get the error NTWriteWordConfig CONFIG_READWORD Invalid Handle (a popup) in the Creative Diagnostics and whenever I try to install the original apps from CD.
    I have done all of the Creative-recommended troubleshooting, including wiping the drivers (latest /2006 version and CD-supplied 2003 version), wiping the Creative apps and reinstalling from the CD that came with the card, and running Windows XP clean (disabling other startup apps). I also triple-checked the speaker wire connections and nothing is wrong with the speakers or the wires.
    Any clues? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    The copy works fine if I remove the long column from the CREATE TABLE "Tmp_CB_REPORT" statement
    and the cursor copy statement. Any help is appreciated.

    What I think you should do is to turn your long into a LOB. LOBs are much malleable than LONGs. I suggest you have a look at the documentation for DBMS_LOB. You can create a function using DBMS_LOB that uses a temporary CLOB to reas your long column an dreturn a CLOB.

  • How to Copy Standard form in Smartforms?

    Hi Experts,
    can anyone tell how to copy a standard form in Smartforms.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Abdul,
    We have to copy them to '800'. (this is your own company define client no)
    All Standard Scripts and their respective print programs are listed in table 'TNAPR'.
    Ex: FORM MEDRUCK has the Driver Program SAPFM06P.
    NOTE: Never make any changes to the Standard Driver Programs
    STEP 1.
    Goto Transaction Code <SE71> and 
    select from Menu UTILITIES ->Copy from Client.
    Enter the Standard Form Name, It source Client 000 and the target Form Name that you want it to be saved as on your client.
    Say you are naming it as zmedruck1.
    Click on EXECUTE.
    STEP 2.
    Converting form to English.
    Open zmedruck1 in <SE71> With language DE.
    Then goto  UTILITIES -> Convert Original Language from DE to EN.
    Then you can modify the layout for example, chaging the logo, or changing the headers, or adding any new code to do some calculation etc.,
    SAVE THE CHANGES AND ACTIVATE.
    Then select from the menu  FORM -> CHECK -> TEXT.
    SELECT your driver program name from the list adn click on COPY.
    If you don't see the program name in the list then click on 
    'APPEND PRINT PROGRAM' and add your program name and then select it from the list and click on COPY.
    STEP 3: Assigning our form to the standard print program.
    Start Tr.Code <NACE>.
    In our present case since we are working on 'Purchase order' we have to select EF and click on the button Output Types.
    Then on Right hand side, scroll down and select  NEU - New P O Printout. 
    (This may change for different programs).
    Then Double click on  Processing Routines on Left hand side.
    Change from Display -> Change Mode. 
    Give your form name (zmedruck1) for printoutput and SAVE.
    STEP 4:
    Start Tr.Code <ME22N> since you are working on Purchase order and click on print Preview to make sure your layout etc., changes are OK. If not again you have to make the changes accordingly.
    If every thing looks ok then you can print your form.
    Regards,
    Sathish:)

    I cannot copy a selection from an Excel 2003 spreadsheet into a Mozilla

    I tried the same process in Chrome and the formatting was lost there as well. It was working before. How do I fix this?

    Hi guys,
    I want to nudge a small stereo selection to the left in edit mode....how?
    cheers
    B

    Do you mean shift the audio in a stereo selection to the left? If so you will have to Delete some audio from before the selection. This of course will shorten the file. If you need to keep the file length the same then you will have to Copy the selection, Mute the selection and then Paste Special/Overlay the audio back where you want it.
