Thank you DM1, I really appreciate it. I found the rasterize function and now it worked. This does confuse me and maybe you can explain since I am new to this program. The thing that’s confusing to me is, I’ve been creating graphics since 1992 and have always understood that there’s Vector and Rasterized images. One is mathematical and can be scaled infinitely, and the other is pixel based. So when something is labeled “image” layer, and not “vector” layer, my brain automatically identifies it as rasterized. So why is it that apparently each time I take in a photograph (rasterized image), that I still have to “rasterize” it again before I can cut, copy, or past a selection of it? Seems like an unnecessary step that hinders the workflow.
Also, are there any places that have good tutorials? I tried using the help section and searched “copy and paste” and this wasn’t mentioned. And a lot of the tutorials on YouTube are years old or they cover the super basic steps. So basic, that they don’t cover what you just taught me. I’m so used to Photoshop, but I need to be done with Adobe.
