Layer postion

I was wondering about layers. I'mworking on a website for a
friend and the main layout is a table that is centred. I'd like to
add some layers to it to do a custom dropdown menu with a
transparent layer and the show-hide behaviour. But layers seem to
have an absolute position whereas the table shifts when you resize
the browser window. I'd like to keep the table centred if at all
possible though. Is there a way to put the layer in absolute
position relative to the main table?
And this is not really a Dreamweaver question but I thought
someone might now anyway, is it possible to make semi transparent
graphics? As in color, but you can still see through to make out
the graphic/text underneath?
Thanks everyone!

Your one of the few that get the description right about
layouts using
absloutely positioned Layers. Most designers think the Layers
are moving.
Depending on if your layout will allow for it, you can wrap
your absolutely
positioned divs ( Layers ) inside of a wrapper div that is
positioned
"relative". Then place this wrapper div inside of a table
cell.
Example..
<div id="wrapper" style="position:relative">
... Your absolutely positioned divs inside here ...
</div>

Copy multi-layer artwork from one file to another; keep layers...

I have an intricate drawing that has a portion I am drawing in a separate document. The layers in the second document do not exist in the destination document.
Is there a way to copy and paste the art so that the objects are kept to their separate layers, and at the same time, create those layers in the destination document when pasting the vectors?

Here is my approach when working with two files, lets say one is a base file, and from a separate file I have changes on layers, or multiple changes, (like varietys).Lets say there are 5 layers. I create another layer, (now there will be 6) call it "changes" lets say in the file with all the other 5 layers.
In Layer pallette, I drag all 5 layers into the 6 layer, they then become sublayers. Then I copy that 6 layer "changes" (with all 5 layers as sublayers) into my base file.
Now I can pull them out and re stack, rename or what have you.
What is cool in working like this if you select the enveloping layer by the "button" you can turn off sub layers and still move everything as a group if you need to position. Example of this would be a die on one layer and a background image on another. With the 'enveloping" layer selected you could turn off the image "sub" layer and by keeping the die layer on you could align by the die and once in postion, turn on the image sub layer.
hope this helps,
good luck

Can we apply embedded font in extension to a text layer of Photoshop ?

Hi All,
I have embedded some fonts into my Flex extension panel of Photoshop.
Can I apply these fonts to any text layer?
Kindly help URGENTLY!
Thanks,
D.A

Here are 3 options for future reference:
1. With the setup you've described, apply a Match Move behavior to the text and make the rectangle the source. Change the Transform parameter to Mimic source. This way you can still adjust the text postion as needed, but the rectangle will drive the animation.
2. Use a group to do the animation. Put both your rectangle and text in the same group and animate the group's postion.
3. Use the Link behavior.
Each of these has it's advantages depending on what you need.

Advice when using lots of Adjustment Layers/Layer Masks

I want to create an image that will be composed of lots of layer masks that I am going to use to paint different effects back over someone's face. I currently have a hue/saturation adjustment layer that I used to desaturate the image and then I selectively painted that desaturated layer back over the skin of someone, I also want to add some green so I created a color balance layer and made a layer mask out of it and want to selectively paint back some green to the skin tone.
1. Does it matter in the layer stacking order where these adjustment layers/layer masks reside?
2. Any general tips for working with an image with lots of adjustment layers/layer masks?
Thanks.

Depending upon the blend mode, it does matter what order you put the layers, as the topmost layer will affect what's below it. You can play around with the different postions and see what works best for your image. You can also group the layers, and set the blend mode of the group to anything other than "Pass Through", so that the adjustment layers only affect what's in the group.

How do I use one layer for multiple pages?

I've been using Photoshop to create a series of web pages. I have about 20 such pages right now.
Unfortunately, I need to change the navigation menu that is found on all 20 pages.
To make these changes, do I need to change 20 different files? Or is there a way to link one layer group to multiple PSD files so that editing it once results in it changing on all 20 pages?
Thanks,
C

You'll have to make some sort of change to each document, but it should only take a few minutes when there's only 20 of them. You edit the group in one, then for each of the others, simply duplicate or drag the edited group into it and delete the old group.
There is also the option of structuring your workflow with Smart Objects which can be refreshed in each document with a common document containing only the menu group. For linking of Smart Object content, there is a third party plug-in but I don't know whether it is reliable.

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;

Is there a way to add multiple outlines on the same layer?

Hi there! I'm trying to add an outline to text or objects through the style fx, then I want to add more outlines. It would be nice if you could just add a new stroke like in illustrator. I don't want copy the layer and just do a thicker outline behind it, the point is to have it all on the same layer .. just wondering if thats possible. Thanks!

You have been given two approaches which may meet your needs. There is another way that offers independent control of the styles, but you do use multiple layers.
Assume you have a path that defines your object and lets say you want to apply three different styles and have independent and ongoing control over each. Create a new blank layer for each style. On each of those layers apply a brush stroke to the path, say a 1 pixel stroke whose color is also the background color as an example. Now on each of those layers apply your chosen layer styles. That is what I have done in this example:

LACK OF FULL PEN TOOL FUNCTIONALITY WHEN CREATING A SHAPE LAYER

Hello, I'm going through Chris Meyer's video course on being an AE apprentice and have spent over an hour on the following issue.
Here is what I know.
I know I am trying to create a shape layer, not a mask, to create a frame to surround the video of the green field on the attached screenshot. Therefore, I pressed "F2" to make sure I am doing so.
I want to define the borders of this picture frame by using the pen tool to draw a path on the layer entitled "Windy Peak".
I have highlighted that layer in my timeline.
This video was pasted on to a placeholder shape that I had created using Command Option "/" on my Mac.
I do have limited use of the pen tool, because it displays properly when I hover it above the borders of the video to be framed.
But I lack access to the toolbar controls I want to complete my assignment.
For example, I would like to create a gradient to define the internal coloration of this frame, but I have no use of the eyedropper when I click on the Color Picker.
Also, I am unable to access or manipulate any of the standard fill or stroke options for use of my pen.
This is what I know.
Thanks for your help! Matt
Message was edited by: Matt Dubuque to add the fact that the video had been pasted on to a placeholder shape image by pressing Command Option "/" on my Mac.

Thanks for pitching in Todd and Rick, I appreciate it very much.
As previously stated, I do have use of the pen tool, but it only has limited functionality as demonstrated by the path I created on the green meadow. My Tools Panel remains activated .
My core problem remains that I am unable to adjust the fill or stroke settings for my pen.
I have tried changing and resetting various work spaces and this has not helped.
I'm scratching my head here.

I don't have a dual-layer drive, can I install Tiger or Leopard?

Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard come on what appear to be larger than 4.7 GB discs. This does not mean you need a dual layer drive to install them. Some Macs capable of installing Tiger or Leopard came with a built-in CD-RW, or CD-ROM drive. For those a compatible Firewire DVD drive for booting Mac OS X can work instead of replacing the internal drive. Tiger also came in a limited edition Media Exchange Program CD installer package, which you may be able to find in the open market. The limitation for each is dependant on other hardware:
1. If your Mac shipped new with no Firewire, you may be able to install Tiger a special third party addon software known as XPostFacto.
2. If your Mac shipped new with less than 867 Mhz built-in processor (including dual processor 800 MHz or less), you may be able to install Leopard with a special third party addon software known as Leopard Assist.
3. If your Mac shipped with a processor upgrade card installed, and #2 is true, a firmware update may be available from the processor upgrade card vendor that allows Leopard's installation.
4. Tiger needs at least 256 MB of RAM.
Leopard needs at least 512 MB of RAM.
If you have a lot of dashboard widgets, you may need to increase RAM to improve performance on either operating system. The RAM needs to follow Apple's specs to ensure smooth operation. Only get RAM with a lifetime warranty.
5. Officially you need for Tiger:
"At least 3 GB of free disk space; 4 GB if you install the XCode 2 Developer Tools" from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1514
And officially for Leopard you need:
"9 GB of available disk space or more" from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3759
However, I would add to that if your hard drive doesn't have at least 15% of the drive free in addition to that, you may experience significant slowing down in the operating system function. This number has been arbitrarily discovered by many users.
6. When installing Tiger or Leopard, if your machine shipped with Panther (10.3) or earlier, be sure to get the retail Tiger or retail Leopard.
The Tiger installer is a san serif gray and white X with a spotlight on the center of the X on a black background.
The Leopard installer is a san serif black and gray X on a pink galaxy centered on a black background.

I'm trying to install a layer style (.asl) in photoshop cc 2014 and I get the error message 'Could not place the document 'filename.asl' because no parser or file format can open the file.' Any suggestions?

I get the same error when trying the same thing with the default styles, so it's not the file.

So, if you click on one on of the layer style sets already on the list, such as Text Effects 2, you get the same message?
Which version of mac os x are you using?
Did you upgrade your mac os with photoshop cc 2014 already installed?
Do you have the lastest version of photoshop cc 2014, which should be 2014.2.1
(listed at the top of Help>System Info from within photoshop)
Do you see the same layer styles as shown above on your list?
Have you moved/copied any plugins from an earlier version of photoshop to the photoshop cc 2014 plugins folder?
The layer styles shown on the list above are the styles that ship with cc 2014 and should be in
/Applications/Adobe Photoshop CC 2014/Presets/Styles
(the mac applications folder where all the other mac applications are installed)
You might try resetting the preferences, but you might need to uninstall photoshop cc 2014 and then reinstall.
(don't drag the cc 2014 to the trash, but use the Uninstall Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 in the photoshop cc 2014 application folder)
To reset the preferences
Press and hold down the Shift+Command+Option keys while starting photoshop cc 2014
Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the adobe photoshop settings file
Press Yes

Fixed layer in a pdf created by illustrator

Hi guys,
I'm an absolute beginner in illustrator and i have perhaps a trivial problem:
I create a map of a region with different information each on an own layer and additional one layer with the legend, which should be visible all the time. After all I want to save this file as an PDF to make it available for my custumer.
Now my problem, in this pdf-file it's possible to disable the legend layer and my customer has the possibility to print out my map without my copyright or logo.
Is there any possibility to fix this layer in the pdf?
I tried out, that it would be possible if I copy my logo into each layer, but that's just an agreement not the "perfect" solution.
Thank you for every idea or hint!

I was so curious and tried it:
I think the best solution is the background solution with acrobat standard:
- Save the legend layer in an own file (without all other layers) and then in an own pdf file without creating a layer (remove the check at the save option).
- save the other layers in a second pdf file with the layer information and without the legend layer (delete it in the ai file before saving it as a pdf)
and then combine the two pdf files as described there: http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/acrobat/articles/acr8at_background.html
disadvantage:
You need an additional programm and two files
advantage:
The illustrator file is "clean" and with no double information.
a big thank you to Jacob Bugge for giving me the idea!

In Photoshop CC (2014), Hue/Saturation adjustment layer properties disappear

I am running Photoshop CC (2014) under Windows 7 Professional. The program is up to date.
Today, while editing an 8-bit image, I added a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. Then, in the properties panel for this layer, with the on-image adjustment tool selected, I clicked a color in the image to get a range of colors whose saturation I wanted to adjust. Next, using the saturation slider in the properties panel, I increased the saturation of this range of colors. Finally, I closed the properties panel by clicking on the double arrow in the upper right corner.
Later, I wanted to modify this adjustment layer. I double-clicked on the layer thumbnail to reopen the properties panel, and found that, although the previous increase in saturation was still operating, the saturation slider was back at its default position, and the range of colors that I had previously established was gone. Thus, I could not make further adjustments to this range of colors.
I then did some further experimentation: I deleted the first Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, and created a new Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. I then again established a range of colors as above, again increased the saturation of these colors, and then again closed the properties panel by clicking on the double arrow in the upper right corner. This time, however, when I wanted to try to modify this adjustment layer, instead of double-clicking on the layer thumbnail to reopen the properties panel, I right-clicked on the layer and then clicked on "Edit adjustment..." This opened the properties panel, which, this time, correctly showed my original adjustments -- the saturation slider showed the positive adjustment that I had previously made, and the range of colors established earlier was still shown. But then, on a hunch, I added a Curves adjustment layer above the Hue/Saturation adjustment layer. Now, when I again opened the properties panel of the Hue/Saturation adjustment layer (by right-clicking on the layer and then clicking on "Edit adjustment..."), my previous settings were gone -- the saturation slider was at its default position and the range of colors was gone! (But the increase in saturation was still operating.)
Thus, it appears that there is a bug in the functioning of the properties panel of the Hue/Saturation layer: In short, once you have added a further adjustment layer, you can't then go back and make changes to the properties of the Hue/Saturation layer. I would be interested to hear if others have noticed this. Also, is Adobe planning to address this?

OK, I am not entirely sure I have understood your post completely, but when you edit a colour range with a Hue/Sat layer, and click off and back on again, it will default to showing the RGB values, which you may not have made any adjustment to. If you pick the previous colour from the image, or a similar colour, it _will_ show you the adjustments. So long as your picked colour is contained within the range of the previous adjustment.
Ypu could also use the RGB drop down (actually they call it Master nowadays), and chose the colour that is closest to your previously picked colour. I expect you are away that you can edit the colour range being operated on by dragging the four sliders on the two colour bars at the bottom of the Properties panel.
Does that make sense, or am I going in the wrong direction?

Camera Raw Filter is not working correctly in Photoshop CC when applied to video layer

With Photoshop CC, when editing a video and adding a "Camera Raw Filter" to some video layer, the effect will be applied only to one frame and not to the whole video layer.
Should it not add that filter to the whole layer (e.g. all frames in that clip)?

Either it's a bug or a limitation. Haven't yet tried this, so I can't tell you whether it works as it should or is acting up... I would however assume that within what one can expect it works as designed - ACR doesn't have a built-in timeline, so there would be nothing for the PS routines to request retrieval of frames from withing the SO.
