Hello all....

I've recently read a publication that stated images opened as Smart Objects allows for layers to be opened w/o being linked. I have tried exactly as the instructions stated and not finding this to be true.
I open the image in Camera Raw by holding the Alt key, which changes the button to 'Open Object'. After this, I right click on the image and click 'New Smart Object via Copy'. Supposedly, I should now be able to manipulate both layers separate from the other, but in the Layers panel I still get the 'Link' icon.

Help.....

Hi there,

when you say links, are you talking about clipping path links or the file that the layer is linked too.

sorry mate couldn't understand that..
