Mac help please!!
 
I am trying to use Lex's strings tutorial, but when I try to get the marching ants by clicking command and the layer, I don't get the marching ants. What am I doing wrong? :crying:

AK! Hopefully Sheri or one of the designers can chime in? I have no clue! Does your keyboard have a CTRL button?

ETA: Make sure you're clicking the layer THUMBNAIL too :)

yah click the layer thumbmnail on the layer palette not the actual layer on your canvas :) works for me

Paula 02-09-2012 08:40 PM

I've been clicking the thumbnail. =(

Paula 02-09-2012 08:41 PM

And when I click the control button, I get options like if I clicked on the right button on a mouse.

Paula 02-09-2012 08:46 PM

Nope, doesn't work. =(

BrattyMeg 02-09-2012 08:47 PM

do you have your mouse set up for 2 click? it's the left side of the mouse if so not the right

Paula 02-09-2012 08:49 PM

I don't have a two click mouse. I'm on my laptop and I only have an older Mac mouse.

Paula 02-09-2012 08:51 PM

Aha! I finally got it!! Thanks a lot Meg!!

BrattyMeg 02-09-2012 08:51 PM

woot!! yw

Hmm, that is weird Paula. I hold the command key down and then left click on the layer thumbnail. Alternatively, you can right click on the thumbnail on the layers palette and select "select pixels". HTH!

ETA: looks like you got it figure out while I was typing my post :)

Paula 02-09-2012 09:06 PM

Oh thanks Sheri!! I'm gonna store that tip in my bag of tricks!! =))
