cs4 duplicating function

i feel like patrick.

 

where is the function to make a dupe of an image.

 

i swear it was under image as always when working with a friend last night on her computer with cs4 extended.

 

today, with my laptop, it is not there. must be a full moon tonight.

Try looking under file. Bridge may have some of these functions.

 

command + r on Mac or CTRL+J on pc will dup a layer.

 

Sometimes gremlins get in at night. Always be sure to close it up tightly.

thanks ronald, but it isn't there either.

 

i have looked under every menu possible.

 

perhaps a bit of super glue at night would work :)

I just looked at mine, on a PC though. In Photoshop, "duplicate" is listed in the image menu, although no shortcut keys. In Bridge, Ctrl + D will duplicate a file, and it is in the edit menu. I do not have extended, though.

You will find the button in the layers panel where you have LAYERS< CHANNELS< PATH there is a drop down arrow right there click it and duplicating layers is the second menu. It's also the second menu under the layere menu. and if you looking for duplicating image that under image the 12 menu down.

goodness what a pain.

 

on the other hand i happened to be at a workshop today and asked several vendors who had computers and monitors up runnin CS4 to look in the tradition place under image, and there it was; so i wasn't losing my mind yesterday.

 

i had to uninstall and re-install the soft ware as i think one can only use it twice and i like to have a back up just in case.
