 Posted: Fri Jun 26, 2009 2:40 pm Post subject: Layers merging by themselves. |
 |
|
I have just bought CS4. I was using PSP X2 so have some knowledge of how things work.
I'm having a problem with layers.
I open up a background layer - fine.
I add a second layer and add an image - fine.
I add a third layer but when I add an image, the first two layers automatically merge together into a new background layer.
The images are all the same size and being added from the bridge.
Any help would be gratefully receved. |

How exactly are you adding the image to the existing one? |

Hi Hawkeye. On each of the three layers I just copy and paste. It works fine on the first two but not on the third. I intend to work on the layers once I have put together a collection I like. |

I don't know why that is happening but maybe try it a different way. Instead of copy/paste, try opening the images in PS and use the move tool to drag them onto the new image. |
