Copying an adjustment layer to another...

Let's say I have to images open in Photoshop CS4 / Mac (IMG-A and IMG-B. I am making some adjustment layer in IMG-A and I want to be able to copy it to IMG-B. How do I do that?

All you need to do is drag the actual adjustment layer from one image to the other. Simple as that.

Well, that's what I used to do in Windows. However, in Mac OS X this

is not working.



I have Photoshop CS4 and Mac OS X 10.5.6

I mean I have all images each in it's own tab. I am dragging the adjustment layer to the tab of the target image but nothing happens.



What do I do wrong?

If you go to Window menu/Arrange/''Float all in Windows'':

the images will no longer in Tabs, you will be able to drag-copy the layers between the different images.

Thanks, Ann, now it all works.



Thanks to everyone who replied trying to help!

So glad that it worked.

Oh yeah - Tabs, what a freaking great invention. The first thing I do is disable that crap. For someone like me who drags everything between documents literally a couple hundred times a day or more, they are the worst thing ever.

Dragging elements from one image to another via tabs does actually work.



You can't simply drag and let go ... the key is drag to the tab, hold for a second until the tabbed image comes to the front ... and THEN let go.

Yes, Phil, but it works so slowly!



I find the N-up button (Arrange Documents) on the application bar quite useful for opening sufficient windows.

Agreed on the ''slowly''. If grafting between docs on a regular basis, the frustration is certainly understandable.



I just wanted to mention that it does actually work.

I cannot figure out how it drag a layer group from one document to another when using tabs. Have tried Phil's suggestion of dragging onto the tab and waiting a second, which is frustrating enough, but this still does not work. I have also tried dragging with all the various combinations of modifier key held down, but still no joy.



With this functionality, tabbed documents are useless for me.

You could use the Arrange (N-up) button to see all open files simultaneously.
