The Double-Ringed Cursor

 

*Adobe Bridge CS4 and Adobe Camera Raw 5 Tip*

When you use the Adjustment Brush in Camera Raw, you’ll notice that there are two brush cursors displayed at the same time, one inside the other.  The smaller one shows the size of the brush you’ve selected; the larger (dotted-line circle) shows the size of the feathering.  Increase the Feather value to widen the distance between the rings; decrease the value to 0 and you’ll see that there’s no space.

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).
