Text layer options

Hi, can some one please tell me that how can i enable Update all text layers and Replace all missing fonts  from Layers menu ??

Select an outdated text layer with a missing font. Really, these functions only appear when there is a use for them. Update all text layers would only show if you have a very, very, very old file (and if somehow you weren't asked at opening, which you would be 99% of the time). The replace missing fonts option only appears when you open an existing document that was made with a font that isn't installed on your computer, and then you have no options for which font is used to replace, so you might as well just highlight the text you want to change and do it manually.

  • How to display the Option Key / Apple Key / Shift Key sign in a Text Layer

    Hello everyone,
    I will be doing some ScreenCasts on some application very soon, and already did my captures / sounds. Now I would like to use motion to display a kind of 'Lower Third' to display KeyBoard shortcuts which correspond to some actions.
    This will probably sound dumb, but I'm wondering how I could display the sign for the Shift / Option / Apple and other special keys on the apple keyboard in a Text Layer. It's probably something easy, but being rather new to the Apple scene, I have no idea how to achieve that.
    Any help would be welcome.
    Regards,
    Stefaan

  • Photoshop CC 14.2 leaves empty text layer

    Hey,
    with the new CC 14.2 update, everytime you click anywhere with the text tool and change your mind (like hit ESC because you missed a existing text) a empty text layer is left behind. It didn't use to be like this, empty text layers are all over my document now.
    Anyway you can avoid this?
    (I'm on a Mac using the x64 version of Photoshop CC 14.2)

    John, I know that you are upset with that change dating from CS4. But AFAIK, it is possible to write an action that goes around the problem. Very, very few users change those two settings, you can add a warning about it. You repeat it so often it sounds like a core function of Photoshop everyone uses is broken.
    In this very case, I would have liked to get a prompt similar to the one we get on a mac trying to use CMD+H that is used by the system, but is an historical shortcut in Ps.
    The only way to create actions that will always work correctly isi to take advantage of the bugs in the implementation of the options. If there is a active selection the option ADD MASKS be DEFAULT  has no effect there will always be a MASK added.  And If you record adding adjustment layer using the Layer menu and check clip the previous layer in the new adjustment layer dialog the adjust layer will always be clipped.  Knowing about the faults in the implementation of the option one can edit all old action and re-record the ADD adjustment layers steps to always have an active selection and Clip then configure the Clipped and  masked adjustment the way the want.  New Actions need to be recorded  to take advantage of the faults also.  However if Adobe fixes the faults in the implementation of the option one again actions will be broken.  The two options should be removed. Thankfully if the option are left at their default setting Photoshop works as designed.  Action will play back correctly.  Yes I repeat it often and will. Adobe should fix bugs. Adobe should also not code wrong behavior for the ESC key either.   Adobe is shooting Photoshop in the foot. Sometimes I thinf Adobe has a death wish...

  • Photoshop CC: How do I use the "New 3D Extrusion" feature on a text layer?

    I have a (text) layer selected, and I need to use the New 3D Extrusion tool to work on it, but when I go to the option for it, it's grayed out and I can't click it!
    I have one layer selected (and it isn't locked). When I right-click the layer, "New 3D Extrusion" doesn't appear, so I have to click the Select tab at the top, in order to see New 3D Extrusion. It was there, but I couldn't select it! What am I missing?

    Yeah i think it might be because of my drivers :/

  • PS CS4 constantly gets stuck in the layer "options" menus

    I'm talking about things like the Opacity, Fill, or.. I never know what to call that sucker with the "Normal, Dissolve, Multiply," etc. options. (Sorry, I'm not a newbie, just never had a term for that presented to me.)
    If I use one of those drop-down menus, then try to do something else, e.g., select the Text tool by pressing "T" (I have my setting as such), I get nowhere. Photoshop ignores every attempt to move out of that layer options box.
    I've tried hitting ENTER as has been suggested: no change.
    I've tried hitting the Spacebar: no change.
    Only after manually clicking - sometimes several times - various other items in PS do I get a change in selection.
    Seeing as I try to use the mouse as *in*frequently as possible - thus relying on the various hot-keys in PS to maneuver around, this is excruciatingly annoying. Often times I don't even notice that my tool selection/change hasn't taken; only to realize that the last several keystrokes or mouse moves I've made haven't taken because... my 'selection' (cursor?) is stuck in one of those options menus.
    Not sure what to do. Maybe there's a post out there abou this, however, if there is, I've been unable to come up with appropriate search string by which to find it.
    Thanks, in advance,
    Jennifer

    That sucker is called "Mode" or "Blending mode" it says it on the options bar and the tool tips.
    It sounds like you have a mouse problem (probably lack of use ).  Try a different one or unplug/plug it a few times.

  • How do I delete or edit a captured text layer that contains a single character in Cp 5?

    My captured text layer contains a single character '7'. This renders immediately when I publish the movie, but I don't get any options when I try to edit the layer by right-clicking on it.
    Can anyone help as this is very annoying...

    Hello,
    Welcome on the forum.
    Since you are talking about 'capture', I presume you are pointing to a Typing object? You cannot edit this right away. Depending on what you want to realize, could propose two workarounds:
    If you only want to show something typing (demonstration - but another text than your character), replace the Typing object by a Text Animation (right-click menu), you'll be able to edit it.
    If you want the user to type in a text, delete the Typing object and replace it by a Text Entry Box.

  • 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.

  • Sometimes I can't add text in a text layer.

    I have PSE9 and sometimes, when attempting to add text to a text layer, I'm unable to do so.  I click the text tool, but the move tool icon displays on the screen even though the text parameters show at the top of the screen.  Any idea what's going on?

    On the text tool's option bar, top left, click on the little arrow, then reset all tools. If that does not fix it, suggest that you reset preferences.

  • I cant use Justification when a TEXT Layer is Selected ...

    Hi ...
    please take a look at this image and tell me whats the problem ?!

    when i select a text layer to do a justification on it the menu goes off ! but when i select another Layer it appears !
    how could i use it when text layer is selected?

    As i said, you have to use paragraph type if you want to use the justification options, not point type. And no, that's not how the Paragraph panel should look like.
    Point type:

  • What are the advantages and disadvantages of suppressed and unsuppressed content in indesign layer option?

    what are the advantages and disadvantages of suppressed and unsuppressed content in indesign layer option?

    I occasionally use layers set to suppress output for holding text that differs from the text in the visible part of a document that I need for variables or TOC entries sometimes, or for notes or guides I want in the file but I don't want printed. You might also want to suppress a layer with some sort of overlay, like the die-lines for a die-cut piece, when you export a PDF for screen viewing.
    I'm sure you can come up with other reasons for having content on a page in the layout, but not in the final output.

  • I can't select the B&W adjustment layer option

    When I click on the adjustment layer button in the layers palette, I can't select the B&W adjustment layer option nor the Vibrance, Exposure, or Channel Mixer options. I am using CS5 (just upgraded recently) in Windows.  I am not sure why I can't select them (the text appears in light grey and isn't available for selection). Thank you!

    Thank you Chris - it was in LAB mode and i changed it RGB and all is well. I hope i marked your answer correctly.

  • Editing text in an existing text layer.

    Running PSE 9 under Mac Snow Leopard.
    I have a family photo including many text layers.  I'm trying to edit the text in a selected large multi-line text layer.  I'm following the steps from the appropriate PSE Help article, but I always end up creating a new layer and the red/green no-go/go option.    I thought I should just be able to double-click the text layer and start editing.

    Can you post a picture somewhere from where we can download?  The above picture is flattened out and so we can't work with it to see what is happening.  Your file must have .psd file extension like the one I have uploaded here:

  • I'm trying to copy a text layer style, but it's grayed out

    All text layers in my file is the same problem. The copy text layer is not available. But I can paste a layer style. I tried on another PSD and same thing. I reset my preferances folder and still no luck. This has happened to me once before, and I can't for the life of me remember what I needed to do to fix it. Anyone know the problem?

    Solved it myself and am posting the 'solution' for others that are not frequent users of PS..
    I was trying to copy the font and color of my text to a bunch of other text layers. Come to find out that it's not possible (as far as I know) without doing the formatting using blending options. Instead, I used the regular text formatting tools. All's good now.

  • Read justification info from text layer.

    How to read  justification info from text layer?
    myLayer.property("Source Text").value.justification;
    return
    6612 - Left, 6613 - Right, 6614 - Center  in CS6
    6814 - Right, 6813 - Left, 6815 - Center  in CC
    it is right for any computer and operating system?

    I would try to steer clear of using the numbers, only because they have changed in each version of After Effects and probably will continue to. You should compare the justification value against the ParagraphJustification options. Pg. 185 in the CS6 scripting guide has the list of choices:
    TextDocument justification attribute
    textDocument.justification Description
    The paragraph justification for the text layer.
    Type
    A ParagraphJustification enumerated value; read-only. One of:
    ParagraphJustification.LEFT_JUSTIFY
    ParagraphJustification.RIGHT_JUSTIFY
    ParagraphJustification.CENTER_JUSTIFY
    ParagraphJustification.FULL_JUSTIFY_LASTLINE_LEFT
    ParagraphJustification.FULL_JUSTIFY_LASTLINE_RIGHT
    ParagraphJustification.FULL_JUSTIFY_LASTLINE_CENTER
    ParagraphJustification.FULL_JUSTIFY_LASTLINE_FULL
    Here is a simple test function that will alert the justification value when it's matched. You can change the alerts to return whatever code you want based on the justifaction value found.
    /*     SAMPLE FUNCTION THAT CHECKS FOR JUSTIFICATION VALUE     */
    var myLayer = app.project.item(1).layer(1);
    textJustVal(myLayer);
    function textJustVal(myLayer){
              var val = myLayer.property("ADBE Text Properties").property("ADBE Text Document").value.justification;
              if(val == ParagraphJustification.LEFT_JUSTIFY){
                        alert("Left");
              }else if(val == ParagraphJustification.RIGHT_JUSTIFY){
                        alert("Right");
              }else if(val == ParagraphJustification.CENTER_JUSTIFY){
                        alert("Justified");
              }else if(val == ParagraphJustification.FULL_JUSTIFY_LASTLINE_LEFT){
                        alert("Lastline Left");
              }else if(val == ParagraphJustification.FULL_JUSTIFY_LASTLINE_RIGHT){
                        alert("Lastline Right");
              }else if(val == ParagraphJustification.FULL_JUSTIFY_LASTLINE_CENTER){
                        alert("Lastline Center");
              }else if(val == ParagraphJustification.FULL_JUSTIFY_LASTLINE_FULL){
                        alert("Lastline Full");
              }else{
                        alert("There must be an error.");

  • How to provide text formatting options to user from a text field

    Hi,
    My requirement is - in the interactive form, a comments field needs to be provided where user should be able to enter text with formatting options like
    Headers
    indentations
    bold/italic
    bullet points and numbers
    Once user enters the formatted texts in a text field, data needs to be displayed/printed in the same format. Could you help me on how to provide these formatting options to the user for a particular text field?
    I understand that once I define the text field with format XHTML (with RTF), user formatting can be captured and displayed in the same way. But I am not sure on how to provide the formatting options for the text field.
    Thank you,
