How to open two docs at once for a collage

I am trying to create a collage. From reading Evening and Kelby it seems that I should create a blank document and then open the photos that I want to include. My next step is to make a selection or drag the whole file to the empty document. Finally, I should use free transform and move the layers around for my final result. My problem is that I cannot open two documents at once. If I create the blank document, once I open a photo it relaces the blank but I cannot have both open at the same time. I have looked through my books (no shortgage of photoshop books, just practical experience) and tried a search. Doers it make a difference if the photo I am trying to open is not in Lightroom or Bridge but simply on my desktop. I am certain that I am missing something simple but the solution eludes me. CS4 and an iMac 24. Thanks.

If you want to work in tabbed view, do it like this:
Select the move tool. Go to the tab that contains one of the image files.
Drag the image over the tab that has the blank document (Keep holding down the mouse button). Wait till that tab opens.
Drag & drop the image into the blank document.

  • How to Open Two Excel Files in Multiple Monitors in Windows 7

    How to open two excel files in two excel windows using multiple monitors in Windows 7.
    Currently it opens multiple files on top of each other on the same one monitor.
    I found this article in a blog it says
    "The snap feature that you are looking for will not work unless you open two instances of Excel. This is because Excel Unlike Word is not a True SDI Application. Microsoft is aware of the Issue however there is no resolution to the problem but the workaround"

    If you are working almost the entire day in front of your computer at your office with lots of Excel Sheets and Word, then probably you might be working with a
    dual monitor or may be even more than that. Studies have shown that having an additional monitor increases the productivity by 20 to 30 percent (Source: NY Times)
    But some applications like MS Office Excel, even though you open multiple files, they are all from the same instance of the application. So if you want to compare two
    Excel
    files, then you may not be able to have it in two
    separate monitors as the files are loaded using the same instance of Excel. If you move one
    Excel
    file to the other window, the other Excel files are also moved to the other window.
    So how to have two separate Excel files or other application side by side in dual monitors?
    Option A:
    In Excel 2003, go to Tools -> Options ->
    General tab.
    Make sure the option, ‘Ignore other applications’ is checked. Now all the Excel files will be opened as separate instance and you can move the Excel files individually across the monitors.
    In Excel 2007, Click the Office button ->
    Excel Options -> Advanced.
    Under General, check ‘Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange’.
    or
    As this method forces each Excel file as a separate instance, the memory consumption will be more. If you don’t want too many memory consumption then you can open only two instances (see
    Option B) and manage wisely to view in both the monitors.
    Note: If you are having issues like Excel opens without displaying a workbook, then you may have to
    uncheck this option. (See Microsoft Help for more details on this). You can use option B in this case. I have this option checked and I have not faced any issue yet.
    Option B:
    They key here is, the application has to be loaded as separate instances. Lets say you have opened an Excel file in
    Monitor 1 and you want to open the next excel file in Monitor 2. You can usually open another instance of Excel by browsing through the
    Start Menu -> Programs -> Microsoft Office ->
    Excel. Make sure this newly opened Excel file is the last Excel file you had viewed and then double click on the Excel file that you wanted to open. This will force the Excel to
    open
    in the second instance of Excel. Now you can move these
    two excel files separately across windows or monitors.
    This may be little cumbersome way to open new instances of Excel every time. The easy solution would be to keep these links in the
    quick links near the Start button. So, every time you want to open a new instance of the application, you can just use those quick links.
    hope work thanks

  • How to open and close posting period for both material  , n invoicing

    HI
    how to open and close posting period for both material  , n invoicing , AM NEW TO SD , SO ALL DOUBTS I DO POST IN HERE PLEASE DONT MIND

    Hi Sunaina
    Period Open T.code: MMP1
    Period Close T-Code: MMPV
    Automate the opening of MM periods 
    How can you automate the monthly opening of MM periods (transaction MMPV - program RMMMPERI) with 
    SM36?
    RMMMPERI accepts a period/year or a date.
    If you enter a date the period is derived by it.
    1. create a variant and check the attribute 'selection variable' for the parameter date. Then click the button 'Selection variables' and set the current date. Every time this variant is used the parameter DATE is filled with the current date.
    2. create a job for RMMMPERI with the variant created in the preceding step. Set it as periodic.
    If you're not using a fiscal year variant simply schedule it as monthly (to be executed the first day of the month).
    If you are using a fiscal year variant you'd have to define a calendar with only the first day of each period defined as working 
    day and use it in the periodicity restrictions.
    Another possibility:
    Write a very simple ABAP which run daily to check if the period has changed and submit RMMMPERI.

  • Adobe Standard slow to open two files at once

    At work, I must check many PDF files to see if they are exact duplicates. However, I have noticed that when opening two files at once, the second file often takes very long to load. I am therefore wondering if there is any solution to help multiple files load faster.

    If you want to work in tabbed view, do it like this:
    Select the move tool. Go to the tab that contains one of the image files.
    Drag the image over the tab that has the blank document (Keep holding down the mouse button). Wait till that tab opens.
    Drag & drop the image into the blank document.

    Can we open two GUI( JFrame) simultaneously for one application at tha same time.if yes why ?and if no why?

    OK, its really simple, basically, you need a desktop frame to stor all the other frames and then you just pop them in, from a new class each time.
    Here's the code from the demo I learnt it from:
    (The demo itself)

    setBounds(inset, inset,
    screenSize.width - inset*2,
    screenSize.height - inset*2);
    //Set up the GUI.
    desktop = new JDesktopPane(); //a specialized layered pane
    createFrame(); //create first "window"
    setContentPane(desktop);
    setJMenuBar(createMenuBar());
    //Make dragging a little faster but perhaps uglier.
    desktop.setDragMode(JDesktopPane.OUTLINE_DRAG_MODE);
    protected JMenuBar createMenuBar() {
    JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
    //Set up the lone menu.
    JMenu menu = new JMenu("File");

  • How to open two images for blending or layering them?

    I know this will be a very stupid questions for hundreds of Photoshop users, but I have watched numerous video tutorials and read manuals and I still cannot open two photos into Photoshop to blend them. Specifically, when I go to File>Open and select the file, no problem. The image opens and is in the workspace; however, when I go to File>Open and select the second image, problem!  The second image simply replaces the first opened image in th workspace. I also see how other simply slide one image over to another image to combine them; I simply cannot do that! What am I doing wrong, or what do I need to do to simply be able to combine the two photos for blending or layering. 
    I greatly appreciate your experience and help, and I am eager to get your answers!! Thank you!!

    There are document which have not been adapted for mobile devices. In that case, use Adobe Acrobat or Reader on a Mac or Windows computer. Note: Reader 2 was released in the 1990s so this form may be a very old one.

  • Spine Orientation of single pages is Lost when opening CS2 doc in CS3 for first time.

    I have a 304 page, full-color, spiral-bound book that I recently opened to make some changes for a re-print. The pages in the Page Pallet were individual pages; however, they all showed a spine on either the left or right side of the page. At the time, this allowed us to use one master page for either left or right pages, plus several of the Paragraph styles had alignment based on the spine.
    I just opened the file in CS3 and then I realized that none of the pages kept their spine orientation as assigned in CS2. It is somewhat of an obscure layout, which I am sure is not often used. But it sure would be time consuming to go back and adjust all of the pages.
    I have attached a CS3 document that shows what I wanted my doc to look like after converting.
    How can I get this fixed?
    Thanks in advance.

    What you are showing is a standard facing pages document with a two-page master spread. The only thing different is you've set all the pages not to shuffle and split the spreads apart. I think someone even posted a script to automate that within the last year.
    What does the document look like now? Not much we can tell you how to get from A to B if we only know what B looks like.

  • HOW TO OPEN AND SAVE FILES TO/FOR MS-WORD 2007 .docx format

    MS-Office 2007 will open .docx files as well as .doc files. Apple's Pages '08 can OPEN MS Word 2007 documents with the new file format ".docx". Pages '08 can not save as ".docx" files, just ".doc" files, but since MS Office 2007 can open these ".doc" without a problem, you should be covered.
    Here is how.
    To open: Just double click the file and Apple's Pages '08 will import the file and open it for you to use and modify.
    To save and use at your work or school's Windows MS Word 2007: When you are done and ready to save the file, go to FILE in the menu bar in Pages '08 and select EXPORT. Then pick the icon DOC WORD and click NEXT. Then in the SAVE AS box, give it a name and tell where you want to save your file to. Click EXPORT. Export is like Save, as it will now save the file where you told it to save it to. Remember you can use the same name, or give it a new name. Thats it. EASY.
    It will save the file in a Windows Word format of ".doc" that MS Word 2007 can open and use.
    Hope this helps people.
    -Apple //GS

    Why yes. How did you know that I saw the way, the truth and the light?
    I just had so many people ask me how to do this, that I thought I might share it with as many people as I could and help the masses To bad that Apple just did not have it as a simple "Save As:" Maybe in the next update.

  • How to open two sockets in one single server

    May I open two sockets with different listening port numbers in a single server? For each socket, the way to deal with the inputstream and outputstream is different. May the thread be like this:
    public class twoSocketServer implements Runnable {
    public twoSocketServer() {
    try{
    SSLServerSocketFactory fact = SSLServerSocketFactory.getInstance(rand, selfPrivateKey, selfCertificate, trustEngine, null);
    serverSocket1 = (SSLServerSocket) fact.createServerSocket(ListeningPort1);
    serverSocket1.setNeedClientAuth(false);
    serverSocket2 = (SSLServerSocket) fact.createServerSocket(ListeningPort2);
    serverSocket2.setNeedClientAuth(false);
    } catch {...}
    public void run()
    while(true)
    try
    SSLSocket socket1 = (SSLSocket) serverSocket1.accept();
    new handler1(socket1).start();
    SSLSocket socket2 = (SSLSocket) serverSocket2.accept();
    new handler2(socket2).start();
    } catch {...}
    class handler1 extends Thread {...}
    class handler2 extends Thread {...}
    Is there something wrong with this idea? If yes, how can I correct it? Thanks.

    try
    SSLSocket socket1 = (SSLSocket)
    serverSocket1.accept();
    new handler1(socket1).start();
    SSLSocket socket2 = (SSLSocket)
    serverSocket2.accept();
    new handler2(socket2).start();
    Is there something wrong with this idea? If yes, how
    can I correct it? Thanks.You can do it.
    In the above code block you are going to need two threads. One for each SocketServer. The accept() method blocks until it recieves a connection. So in your above code it would first wait only for a connection on port 1. Then it would wait only for a connection on port 2. And then start over. That probably isn't what you want.

  • How to open firefox just this once without prior sessions restarting?

    Last session I stumbled on a site infected with malware. Now, each time I reopen Firefox, the old sessions restart, as usual (and as I want them to, except for now), going immediately into the malware problem again.
    Firewalls and anti-virus are handling the problem ok so far, but obviously I can't keep opening Firefox and banging against the malware.
    How to open without restoring previous sessions? I'm not talking about changing the default setting, not talking about having it never restore sessions. Just this time, how to get around the automatic restore of sessions?

  • When I start Firefox it opens two instances at once

    v7.0.1, running under Windows XP:
    I thought the Tabbed Browsing feature looked really useful and spent an hour or so created a number of Tab Groups from my bookmarks. However, now when I start Firefox it opens two instances immediately, one correctly with my Tab Groups available but also another with just the home page. Apart from not wanting the second instance, there's now the risk that if I close the wrong one first, all of my carefully set up groups will disappear.
    Something has gone wrong - how to correct it?

    You can try to delete the user.js in your profile folder:
    https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Preferences%20are%20not%20saved
    Follow steps 1 and 2 to get to the folder
    If this doesn't work, try deleting user.bk as well?
    (This worked for me when I deleted user.js and user.bk, although I actually copied it to my desktop first in case it didn't work.)
    EDIT: When I looked at the user.js 's contents, removing the line:
    user_pref("browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone", "rv:7.0.1");
    also fixed the problem
