New Photoshop CS4 Learning Center

 

The wait is over…well sort of. Today is the day we all get to see what Adobe has in store for the next installment of the Creative Suite. If you haven’t registered yet for the special Adobe presentation go here. Although if you miss it, not to worry. All of us here at the NAPP have put together a slick new Photoshop CS4 Learning Center. Get an inside look at the newest features in Photoshop CS4 and Photoshop CS4 Extended. With exclusive content by Scott Kelby, Matt Kloskowski, Dave Cross, RC and Corey Barker; there is no better place to get up to speed fast. The learning center is free with extra content exclusively for NAPP members. I gotta admit. I am really excited about the new 3D features, I see real possibilities here. I will have some exciting new CS4 content right here on Planet very soon. So stay tuned.

What about the rest of the Creative Suite. Well we also put together a slick Creative Suite 4 Learning Center over at the Layers Magazine website. We have a host of guest instructors covering all the creative suite apps like Illustrator, InDesign, Flash, Dreamweaver, and even a little Photoshop. Check it out here.

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).
