Issue when erasing in the layer panel in Ae

Hi, is there a way to see a reference background in the layer panel when painting or erasing? I dont want to paint on that second layer, only see it in the layer panel. Thank you!

No. It's a good feature request, though:

  • [Photoshop CC 2014] Click&hold-move-release doesn't work when adding adjustment layer from the layer panel

    When selecting a menu item I used to click the left mouse button and hold it down, move the pointer to the desired menu item and release the mouse button. Everything works fine in the mine menu, but there's a problem when adding new adjustment layer from the layer panel: when I release the button nothing happens, I have to press the button again. In previous PS version it worked fine. How can I fix this?

    I don't think that is user fixable, meaning you'll have to wait till adobe fixes it with an update.

  • When I open Photoshop CS6, the image does not show in Photoshop. The image IS open, i.e. the filename is shown on a tab and the image layers show in the layer panel. What is going on?

    Both Photoshop and Bridge open as usual. But when I open an image, the image does not show in the image area. The image filename does show in a tab and the layers show in the layer panel. What is going on and how do I fix this.

    I resolved the problem. It was somehow related to my using Microsoft
    theme pictures. I set Windows to use the basic theme and the problem
    went away. Thank you for the suggestions.

    CS6 problem. When I open the Mask panel, it takes up the entire screen width and the Looks controls disappear, Also, there is a new panel below the Mask panel that seems to have no purpose that I can find. The documentation says "Mask and Look panels - The Mask panel is now placed next to the Look panel. WIth the masking and grading tools placed side-by-side, you can now work faster on the mask workflow." Is there a way to move, hide, or otherwise manipulate the panels for a custom layout? All the examples I can find on the Web show the Looks panel to the left of the Mask panel where the controls are available.

    Ok, here is what I have so far. Appdelete the iWork and reinstalled. Pages and Number work, but not Keynote.
    Now, I downloaded a couple apps that I need, and no matter what I did, the spinning ball came up and the download stopped till it unlocked itself. It is really frustrating because the download was not completed and whatever came through would not mount. Could this issue be the internet connection? Permission fix showed a lot of Airport issues. I will try to run permissions fix again.

  • On CS6  with two images in the titles and one open Tutrials tell me that I can drag one onto the greyed title and there will be 2 layers in the layer panel .I have done this many times both with unlocked layers and duplicates . None of three options work.

    In CS^ when I have 2 photos inthe title bar and one is greyed out tutorials tell me I can rag the opened photo onto the greyed title to create two images in the layer panel.  It does not wrk even if I unlock them or use duplicates. Modify keys don,t help.  What is wrong ?

    First select the Move Tool
    Drag the source picture to the tab of the destination picture
    The tab will open to reveal your destination picture, do not release the button yet, but drag the move tool onto the destination picture.
    Then release the mouse button.
    Tell me how you did.

  • Why Can't I open the layer panel?

    I installed the new trial version of PSE11 and for some reason the layer panel does not show up automatically and when I try to open it under the windows menu the layers part is greyed out.  The entire layers dropdown menu is also entirely grey.  Please help!

    You need to be in Expert mode. Just click the expert button at the top of the window, and you'll not only be able to use the menu command, but will have a dedicated layers panel button at the bottom right of the main PSE window.

  • In Elements 12 why can't I suddenly not reposition layers without using the layer panel?

    In Elements 12 I have always been able to drag photos from the bin onto a background and easily move them or alter them simply by clicking on those photo/slayers while working on the same background without using the layer panel.  A couple days ago I suddenly have to show the layer panel and click on that particular layer in the panel before I am able to move, alter, or delete a particular layer. Also, every time I open a new image or blank file to use as a background, I am suddenly working with a locked background which I don't want, and the directions to un-lock don't seem to work, if that has something to do with it.  I didn't change any settings that I know of.

    For editing purposes, the thrust of the program is to work in layers, and to do that it is necessary to have the layers palette in view so that the appropriate layer can be made the active layer.
    The background layer is locked by default. You can probably drag the padlock to the trash can, or, do your work on a duplicate layer which will come in unlocked.
    Try dragging photos from the layers palette to the work area, not up from the photobin to the work area.
    Also, go to Edit>Preferences>General and be sure that "Allow Floating Documents in Full Edit Mode" is checked.

  • Why would my video clips be running too fast when played on the monitor panel?

    I posted my problem earlier today, but re-reading it maybe I didn't explain myself well enough.
    My main question is: "why would my video clips be running too fast when played on the monitor panel ?".  This is occuring after I have selected my media from the Tasks Panel and placed them in correct order in the Timeline/Sceneline.  I knew something was wrong when I could see that the clips were not indicating their right length when viewed in the (expanded) timeline.  They were compressed into just a few seconds, whereas the clips should have been at least 5 minutes.  I ran the clips in the monitor and sure enough they ran too fast, with a lot of jerking movements.
    The 3 video clips I am trying to make into a HD PAL video were taken with my Nokia N8 mobile video camera. These are in mp4 format. Can this present a problem ?  Note that when I play these individual HD clips on my computer in (Windows Media Player) they run fine.
    After I placed the clips in my Project Panel (or before in the Organize Workspace), I have perforned no change or manipulation of the clips.  They are in their original state.
    Just too confirm that the clips did seem to be compressed, I burnt a DVD, the resultant video ran in a matter of seconds.
    Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Yes, that is what the problem was.
    Although the video camera on my Nokia N8, mobile was capturing at 25fps,
    for some reason once transfered over to PrE9 (via file transfer), the clip was interpreted as 500fps.  Once in Interpret Footage I was able to change the fps to 25.
    Thanks for the help.

    Turn off Voice Control.
    Otherwise, basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).

    Every since I updated to the latest Camera Raw and Photoshop I have the following issue: when I finish the photo in Raw and bring it into Photoshop I have white squares in the Photo. If I crop the photo the white square disappears until I zoom to enlarge it then the white square reappears. I do not believe the squares are saved

    Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue?

  • Design Studio 1.4 SDK:  Issues when launching from the Eclipse IDE

    Hi,
    I am receiving various errors when launching Design Studio 1.4 from the Eclipse IDE for SDK development.  All of the components appear in the Component panel as expected but I can't drag and drop any of the SDK components (or standard components for that matter) onto the canvas.  When I launch Design Studio 1.4 independently of Eclipse everything works fine (event though I still see come errors in the Console).
    I'm hoping the community can provide some guidance to help resolve the issue.  The details are documented below:
    Environment:
    Design Studio Version: Release 1.4 SP0 Patch 1 (64-bit)
    Eclipse Version: Java EE IDE Luna Service Release 1a (4.4.1) - 64-bit
    Java Run-time Environment: Version 8 Update 25 (64-bit)
    Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit
    Eclipse Configuration for DS SDK:
    Target Location:
    Target Environment:
    Target Run Configuration (Main):
    Target Run Configuration (VM Arguments as per DS SDK Developer Guide):
    Steps to Reproduce Error
    1.  Launch Eclipse
    2.  Launch DS 1.4 from Run command in Eclipse
    The following screen appears immediately after launching DS from Eclipse:
    At this point the DS error log is as per the attached DS_Log_After_Eclipse_Launch.txt file.
    3.  Create a new blank Application from the Application -> New menu.  This time additional error messages appear as shown in the screenshot below:
    It's not possible to drop any standard or SDK components onto the canvas because the internal browser doesn't appear to have been instantiated due to the above errors.
    At this point the DS error log is as per the attached DS_Log_After_Eclipse_LaunchAndAppCreate.txt file.
    3. Return to Eclipse IDE
    The Eclipse Console displays the following errors:
    The Eclipse Console Log is as per the attached EclipseConsoleLog.txt file.
    4.  Launch DS 1.4 Independently
    The following errors also appear when I launch DS 1.4 independently of Eclipse but it in this case everything seems to work fine.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • Bridge crashes when I use the export panel (when I try to specify a folder)

    Hi all!
    Every time I use the export option, no matter where I access it from, when I try to specify a folder to move the file to, bridge crashes.
    I can't just use "move" or "copy" to because I want to change the file format as well as move it.
    Has anyone encountered this?
    I already have the bridge 4.05.11 update installed.
    Any solutions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks, Karen

    Every time I use the export option, no matter where I access it from, when I try to specify a folder to move the file to, bridge crashes.
    In the export panel at the top right is a small menu icon, if you click on it and from the two options choose manage modules.
    Next to ' select modules to enable' is a small icon of a toothed wheel. Click on it and first choose check for update (probably showing non available but give it a try) and then choose reinstall all modules. Restart Bridge and check if it is working. If still not restart Bridge holding down option key and choose reset preferences and see if that worked for you.
    And there are other ways to save as new file format in new location. Assuming you have Photoshop also active go to the Bridge menu Tools / Photoshop and choose 'image processor, explore the options and set them to your wshes. You can also create an action in Photoshop for this goal and instead of image processor choose Batch and find the action you created
