Copy One Layer, Or Copy ‘Em All

 

If you’re working on a layered document, and you make a selection and copy that selection, by default Photoshop only copies the information on your currently active layer (and that’s a good thing). However, there may be times when you want to copy your selection as if the image was flattened (in other words, you want to copy everything on all visible layers). If that’s the case, press Command-Shift-C (PC: Control-Shift-C), and you’ll copy as if the image was flattened, not just on the active layer.

Getting To The Hexadecimal Code

As you may know, there are hexadecimal codes for the colors used in webpages. Not only does Photoshop know these hexadecimal codes, it can extract them from an image and let you paste them into your HTML code editor. First, press the letter I to switch to the Eyedropper tool, and then hold the Control key (PC: Right-click) and click on a color within your image. A contextual menu will appear where you can choose Copy Color as HTML. Now you can switch to your HTML editor and choose Paste to copy the HTML code into your app.
