I'm currently trying to work with this tutorial here: http://psdtuts.com/photo-effects-tutorials/photoshop-button-maker/

However, it's a bit poorly written with vague details, and I am stuck on step seven. It says:

Step 7:

So next we want to make the button interchangeable. To do that we simply get the main green layer and set the Fill to 0%

Fill is a bit like Opacity except that if you make something 0% Opacity then you make the layer styles transparent too, whereas if you make it 0% Fill, the layer styles are still visible. This is perfect for us because we get rid of the green, but still have everything we need to make our buttons. Now all we need to do is slot something underneath.


When I set the Fill to 0 percent, nothing happens. I even duplicated the green layer to make sure that it would go away at 0 percent, but no such luck.

I also don't think you can apply layer styles without having an existing layer, am I right? Because the point is to get rid of the green color but still have the layer styles there.

If anyone has suggestions, I'd appreciate it.
