Photoshop Elements 7 - How do I align/center a layer?

I'm using Photoshop Elements 7. How do I align/center a layer vertically or horizontally on a page?

Are you adding objects to a blank layer? If so bring up the ruler then drag and drop guides to your center and any additional points. You can also set so that objects automatically snap to the guide lines.
If you want to align visually similar images on top of each other, there is no auto-align like in CS5. The only work around is to lower the opacity of the top layer and then use the move tool to align by eye.

  • Photoshop Elements 6: Hue/Saturation as a basic layer?

    When creating a hue/saturation layer in Photoshop Elements 6, is it possible to have it act as a basic layer, adding and removing from the selection, rather than a mask layer?

      The simple method is to place your selection on a separate layer and clip the hue/saturation mask to it.
    In this example I selected the sky and pushed up the saturation to really exaggerate the blue color.
      Click to view
    1. Make your selection
    2. Press Ctrl+J to place it on its own layer
    3. Add new adjustment layer (hue/saturation) and click OK to close the dialog
    4. Hover your mouse over the dividing line between the adjustment layer and selection layer whilst holding down the alt key. Click when you see two small connecting circle appear. A downward pointing arrow will appear to show the adjustment layer is clipped to the selection layer.
    5. Double click the thumbnail icon on the adjustment layer (not the white mask thumbnail) and that will bring back the dialog box.
    6. Now use the sliders to make your selective adjustments.

  • Re-connect adobe photoshop elements to existing catalog

    I had to replace a failed hard drive, but my data was well backed up.  After re-installing Photoshop Elements, how do I connect it to my catalog of media?  I sure don't relish going back and re-labeling 10,000 pictures!

    Your data was well backed up, but you can't use your catalog, because the catalog still points to the old drive. If you had done a backup from the organizer, you'd simply to a restore from the organizer to any new drive or computer. Without losing the connection with your picture files. Next time, you'll know: Use Backup, Restore to move catalog | Organizer | Elements 6 or later
    Now, to reconnect your files, see:
    http://psekb.blogspot.in/2013/03/how-do-i-reconnect-missing-files-in.html
    If you have restored the pictures folder tree in exactly the same location (except it's a new drive), the reconnection will be easier.

  • Elements 7 on Vista Media Center

    Hi,
    I am running Photoshop Elements 7 on Vista Media Center and am unable to get the Media Center add-in to work properly.
    If I open the Elements catalog from photoshop it displays all the thumbnails correctly (some are stored on a local hard drive and some are on a network drive).
    In the Media Center plugin it only displays thumbnails of images located on the local hard drive. No thumbnails of any images on the network drives are displayed.
    This cannot be a permissions issue since Photoshop Elements Organiser can access all of the images on the network drives and so can Media Center's photo viewer.
    Is Photoshop Elements not capable of accessing images stored on a network drive?
    thanks,
    warren.

    To rule out obscure problems with permissions, I suggest setting the permissions of the catalog folder and its contents and your picture folders and their contents to Allow Full Control for Everyone.
    Also, see this section from the PSE 7 Readme:
    HOME NETWORKING TROUBLESHOOTING
    PROBLEM: Photos and videos appear as black thumbnails on Media Center Edition (MCE) Extenders.
    ANSWER 1: This problem occurs when the Photoshop Elements Digital Home feature does not have permission to view the files in your user account.  To learn more about security and permission issues with MCE Extenders, check the documentation that came with your device. To fix this problem, if your photos and videos are stored in your My Documents folder, you can use the Media Center Extender Manager to grant access to your My Documents folder to the MCE Extender
    Launch the Media Center Extender Manager by going to Start > Accessories >Media Center >Media Center Extender Manager
    Choose File > Settings.  This will launch the Media Center Extender Setup program, showing you the Content Settings page.
    Make sure the Make all My Documents Folders Available setting is checked.  Continue to the end of the setup program by clicking Next at each page.
    Click Finish when the last page loads. After running these steps, your photos and videos should display on your MCE extender.
    ANSWER 2: Shared folders: An alternative resolution is to make the folder(s) your photos and videos are in, as shared folders on your machine. This will allow access to those photos on remote devices, including MCE Extenders. IMPORTANT: this will also allow access to your photos and videos from other computers on your network.  Make sure you understand the security risks of shared folders before using this option.

  • Photoshop cc layer appears to be locked when opened in photoshop elements. pencil with line crossing it out in layers panel... help please.

    I sent a psd created in photoshop cc to a customer to edit. They only have photoshop elements and cant edit the layer.. the image shows a pencil with line across.
    any ideas please???

    You sent them a layer group and photoshop elements can't open or work with layer groups without some kind of add on like actions or scripts.
    You should send them the document with the layers not in a layer group.

  • Aligning a text layer to the centre of the image?

    Hi,
    I've just been creating a watermark for my photos in Photoshop CS5. I've found the 'Align' tool under 'Layer' in CS5 but align is greyed out. How can I align the text layer to the centre of the image if I can't use the align tool?
    Thank you!
    Chris.

    You need to select the layer (ctrl/a) then you can align it.

  • How can I obtain a version of Print Studio Pro that works with Photoshop Elements 13 (64 bit)?

    How can I obtain a version of Print Studio Pro that works with Photoshop Elements 13 (64 bit)?  The advertising refers to Print Studio Pro 2 but all I find available to download is version 1.35.

    Thanks - I did notice that the 2 was a superscript on one site but on another (I think the one for the Pro-10 printer) it was definitely a 2 in line with the rest of the text and separated by a space (at least on my browser).  At any rate, I suspected something of the kind and will simply use Photoshop Elements 11 when I want a pattern print until the change is made.
    If you have an inside line to Canon you might also suggest some changes to their Image Garden program, specifically its handling of DVD label projects.  It has several themes and within each theme several layouts.  As far as they go these are fine but they do not give nearly enough flexibility.   The boxes for insertion of images are useful as is the simple procedure for rescaling the image so it is cropped in varying ways while staying within the fixed box.  However, it should be possible (a) to relocate the boxes on the page and (b) to resize and reshape the boxes - probably by a control which would become available by right-clicking on the box.  For example, there are times when the user might want to include a full 16 x 9 frame shot as one of the images, and in general the aspect ratios of the provided boxes do not permit this.
    I have over the years preferred to use Word for this purpose after setting up masks to expose just the printable area of the DVD or Blu-ray disc, setting up the margins so that the center of the disc is in the horizontal center of the page, and finally introducing text and pictures and adjusting the font size of blank lines above the disc to line everything up properly in the vertical direction.  A typical layout might involve one large picture, located so the center hole and the curved outer edge do not block anything important, or two pictures side by side, or four pictures centered vertically (to minimize the effect of the outer edge of the disc) but possibly of different widths (so as to make both close-ups and wide scenes optimal on the same disc label).  The text then goes above and below the pictures.  All of this works perfectly so I probably wouldn't use Image Garden very often for this purpose, but the inability to resize and relocate the boxes must be very limiting for others as well. 
    Some of the layouts have image locations severely reduced by the edge of the disc.
    As I said ... if you have an inside line to Canon .. but if not, please excuse the length of this post!

  • How do i maintain transparency of photos imported from Photoshop Elements?

    i prepared some sepia photos i found in a digital library in Adobe Photoshop Elements 10.  the subjects are in the center and i removed the space around them, making it transparent.  however, after importing them into Premiere Elements I've lost the transparency.  I've  tried keying with some of the options, Chroma Key, Non Red Key, etc., but no matter what i do i can't attain the effect i want, which is to show the background color i selected.
    i learned Premiere in the early days when only one video line maintained transparency.  i changed my pictures to two different video lines thinking this would make a difference, but that didn't do anything.  i'm stocked, can't finish my project because of this.
    i also accessed Premiere Elements help, but the explanation they give is like a long commercial that doesn't go anywhere.  it tells of all the options available but it doesn't explain how you apply the options to your problem. i already own the product, i know it's good, that's why i bought it.  don't have to keep reselling it.   Uff!
    any ideas?
    thank you.

    Is you only interest in maintaining the transparency in the saved Photoshop Elements 10 Editor image created with transparency?
    Then the png and psd save from the Editor should serve your purposes. Are you also interested in how to maintain transparency in the Premiere Elements 10 export which includes the images with transparency?
    If so, please look at Share/Computer/QuickTime and, under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the preset selected, look especially to the settings of Video Codec = Animation and Depth = 32 bit.
    Any questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

  • Dreamweaver MX  How to get pages to automatically align center

    I can get text within a layer or table to align center, but I can't figure out how to get the entire page to always snap to center, regardless of the browser window size.  I'm sure this is easy, but I just don't see it.
    Whatever the solution, must the contents of the page be in a table? If so, can I convert the layers (photos and text) that make up some pages into tables?
    Sorry, if this is basic, but I haven't used the program in a few years, and my books andmanuals are in storage 4 hours away.

    You need 3 basic things to center a page.
    A valid HTML document type declaration on the first line of your code.  DW normally does this for you when you create a new page. 
    CSS container width in pixels, ems or %;
    CSS margin-left and margin-right of auto.
    Page centering can be expressed with the following CSS code:
    body {
         width: 980px;
         margin:0 auto;
    NOTE: This won't work with positioned elements (aka Layers) because they are removed from normal document flow.

  • How can I install Adobe Photoshop Elements Update 9.0.3 after I get a message that Installation has failed and the solution is not in troubleshooting or forums?

    My Photoshop Elements 9 stopped working a couple of weeks ago. When I clicked the PSE button nothing happened. I tried this several times over a few days and it still failed. I uninstalled the program and re-installed it. It worked well. Then I tried to install the Update 9.0.3. The download was almost successful. When it was about to show 100% successful for the download, an error message said the installation had failed and that I should try later. I tried this many times over a few days and the same result occurred. I tried troubleshooting and the answers to questions, but I could not find an answer. I don't know where to go to see if anybody has answered my question. How can I install Update 9.0.3?
