I poked around on this forum first, but I'm not sure what to call this problem so I couldn't find a previous question. I was sent a .psd web layout to slice and code and it's a mess. There are no sub folders and the layers are not properly named.

Is there a way to easily find layers by mousing over the image? Kinda hard to explain but Fireworks does this all the time. It's almost like selecting an element with the web developer toolbar (the webbies will get that) :)

Thanks!

Hi gaddiss,
You can use the move tool and take advantage of the options in the options bar. Another good way to find layers is to ALT click the layer eyeball. This will turn everything else off so you can identify what the layer does!
Hope that helps
