It’s Coming…

 

Ok, so this isn’t breaking news but in case you haven’t heard. Adobe will be hosting a web-only presentation of the new features in CS4 on September 23. You can be among the first to see the newest features of all the applications. This is an invitation-only event sort of. All you need to do is go here and sign up.

Also I would like to send out a big congrats to RC, my fellow Layers TV co-host whose lovely wife Jennifer delivered their first child yesterday morning. Sabine Annibel Concepcion was born on September 11 at 2:30 am. She was 7lbs, 12oz. and 21″ long.

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
