      Hi Cassel

      I’m Greg, taking my second workshop this year.

      I like the idea of making a plaid design but I don’t have a plaid pattern in my materials.

      Do you have a lesson on how to make a new pattern and then put it into materials, please?

      Thanks

      Greg

        My final project.

        Thanks for the tip about closing the jpg before resizing; I also lost my text and got it back by following your suggestion.

        I am still having problems with my text. I try selecting the text but something happens so that my selection is of the raster layer below it. If I eventually manage to get the vector layer selected, I cannot get the text highlighted to be able to change it. I suspect that I am not understanding something basic here. 🙂

        The other thing that has happened is that suddenly when I open a new paper etc , it takes over the whole workspace. Any ideas, please?

          Hi

          I have seen several posts mentioning “tubes”.

          What are they please and how do we use them?
          Thanks, Greg

            Hi

            This is my Day 9/ Busy Bees project.

            The photos are of the Windmill at Bembridge on the Isle of Wight.

            The papers are from one of the suggested freebie sites

                Hi Carole/Cassell

                Thanks for the idea of creating textures. Something else that I have learned how to do :).

                There are a lot of these living Statues in Spain; they remain stationary until someone puts a coin or two in their pot and then they move – sometimes with startling effect.

                  My latest creation for Project 3; it is based on a photo of one of the many human ‘statues’ in and around Granada, Spain in 2018 before the dreaded struck!

                    Hi Cassel and Linda

                    thanks for the ideas. I will try them next time I am using PSP.

                      I am using 2022

                      The pick too; was working; it just wouldn’t work on the layer that I wanted to use. In fact I could only select the background layer, whatever I tried to do.

                      I did not try to activate anther tool.

                        I am using PSP2022

                        I had been playing around with the text. I had changed the font and the size and the colour – probably several times.

                        I was trying to move the text because, after a font/size change, half the typing had disappeared from the project

                        I must have done something unintentionally, because suddenly I was unable to get the pick tool to work on the chosen layer. It was as if I had frozen it on the first layer. Each time I tried to do something I could only get a colour change screen appearing. It was for the colour of the stipe on my project, even though the layer selected was the background.

                        It happened again after I had cleared it for the first time by using undo, so I just used undo again until I could get to the right layer.

                        Hope this helps – and you can suggest what I may have done wrong.

                        Thanks in anticipation, Greg

                            I just spent a lot of time learning!

                            I kept having a problem with the type function. Several times it seemed to lock up and the only way I could get out of it was by using the undo function. Anyone have any ideas about what I am doing to make this happen repeatedly, please?

                             

                            This is my very simple project.

                              Thanks for that. It all seems to be working now.

                                Hi

                                I’m Greg from England and I have been meaning to take the bootcamp for ages; I’ve finally got round to it .

                                My version of the plate and sandwich is below.

                                I am using 2022; it seems to have got some hiccups.

                                When I click on a layer it looks as if it has selected it but when I use the move tool, it moves a different layer. Is anyone else having this problem, please?

                                I notice that when we move from the sandwich layer to the table image, the layer turns into a raster. What’s that please?

                                And then, when it’s a raster it is moving the correct image!

                                Any ideas, please?

                                 

                                Thanks

                                Regards

                                Greg
