What does the stamp layer mean, the seal layer meaning?
Stamping is when you will process the image of the processing of the effect of stamping to the new layer, the function and the merged layer is similar, but better than the merged layer! Because stamping is the regeneration of a new layer and does not affect the layers you previously handled, the benefit is that if you feel less satisfied with the previous processing , you can delete the stamped layer, and the layer that did the effect is still there. To a great extent, we can also save time by handling pictures.
In fact, we simply understand that the stamped layer is the effect of flattening all the layers into a new layer, but retains all previous layers, and there is no real flattening layer to facilitate the subsequent editing of individual layers.
Second, PS-stamped layer shortcuts
In general, we usually hand-stamped layers are stamped visible layer, so where is the stamped layer? It is only necessary to know the shortcut key for the stamped layer.
Stamp all visible layers: Ctrl + Alt + Shift + E;
Stamp selected layer: Ctrl + Alt + E
What is the difference between a stamped layer and a PS layer mask?
Stamped layers are completely different from masks, but sometimes they're kind of like masks, when you apply a layer cover to a layer below the stamped layer, it appears on the stamped layer, and then on the stamped layer, the part that appears disappears. This is mainly used in the background, the composite picture is often used.
Four, use the stamping layer Note:
1, different versions of PS in the use of stamped layers, CS4 version need to create a new layer, but in the CS4, CS5 and the latest PS CS6, the stamped layer does not need to create a new layer, will automatically stamp all the visual layers as a new layer, easy to operate.
2, if the impression after the seal is not very satisfied, you can remove the stamped layer, you can readjust.
3. After you delete the stamped layer, we can change and adjust the other layers until we have a satisfactory result.
4, stamped layer can also be flexible choice, if we just want to put a few separate effects of stamping, we will hide the other layers.
The following is a case to explain to you:
1. Before stamping, create a new transparent layer! Many beginners will not this step, in fact, very simple, the mouse to click on the layer of the panel below the new button on it. Note that when you create a new layer, you must create a new one on the top layer, and if not, press Ctrl + Shift + to move to the top.
2. Press Ctrl + AlT + Shift + E for these four keys after creating a new layer on top! We can see the newly created layer with one more picture, and it is the layer that we have just made the effect. As shown in the figure:
3. If the feeling effect is not very satisfactory after the stamping, you can remove the stamped layer and adjust it again.
4. After you delete the stamped layer, we can change and adjust the other layers until we have a satisfactory result.
5. The stamped layer can also be flexibly selected, and if we only want to stamp a few separate effects, we will hide the other layers.
