Layers

Identifying a Layer with a Colour

Clive R. Haynes FRPS

It's possible to give layers different colours as an aid to identification.

First, highlight (activate) the Layer you wish to identify

Go to: Layer > Layer Properties and select the colour you need.

The two examples below show first one colour chosen, then three layers with identifying colours.

One More Thing..........

Remember: Photoshop will 'print what you see' on screen so if a layer is 'visible' (eye-icon 'on') it will appear in the print (or final image). Layers that are not visible (eye-icons 'off') will not appear.
