Blending PSD layers
The Blend Mode drop-down menu in the Layers pane lets you control how pixels in a
selected layer interact with pixels in all the layers below the selected layer. The blend
modes are similar to those in image-editing applications: They include options such as
Multiply, Color Dodge, Exclusion, and Saturation.
Showing and hiding Photoshop layers
You can view and print layers that are showing; hidden layers do not display on-screen
or in print. Advanced Image Control allows you to hide any layer, including the background
layer.
• To show a layer, click the empty box icon to the left of the layer.
• To show all layers, Option+Shift+click/Alt+Shift+click the empty box icon.
•
To hide a layer, click the eye icon .
•
To hide all but one layer, Option+click/Alt+click the eye icon .
If changing the blending and opacity of layers produces undesirable results, you can revert
the layers to their original state in the imported PSD file with the Revert Layer or Revert
All Layers options in the Advanced Image Control palette menu.
Modifying PSD layer opacity
A field on the Layers pane let you control the transparency of pixels on a selected layer.
You can specify a transparency from 0% (transparent) to 100% (opaque).
Working with layer masks
If layer masks are saved with PSD files, you can enable and disable the masks in the Layers
pane of the Advanced Image Control palette by Shift-clicking the thumbnail preview of
the layer mask.
Working with PSD channels
Photoshop channels store color information about images. By default, grayscale and
indexed color images have one channel, RGB images have three channels, and CMYK
images have four channels. These are referred to collectively as the default channels. You
can use the Channels pane of the Advanced Image Control palette to show and hide all
channels, to change the color and ink solidity of a selected spot-color channel or alpha
channel, and to assign spot colors to selected indexed colors. For example, you might
assign special effects such as varnishes, embossing, and die cuts to channels.
Showing and hiding channels
Visible channels in imported PSD files display on screen and can be printed; channels that
are hidden do not display on screen and cannot be printed. The process to show and hide
channels is the same as for layers.
Clicking the composite channel displays all the default channels, such as CMYK or RGB.
