Hello all! My first post is a question :o

I am currently working on a project that requires me to resize and cut out every flag in the world. I have been given an Oval shape that every flag has to be exactly like.

I have used the actions option to automatically resize all the flags, and now I would really like if someone could tell me how to save the selection that I am supposed to use, so I could make an action thing for that as well.

My question is: How do I save a selection from one project, so I can open it in any other project?

Id really appreciate if someone will help me on this one.

Cheers

investigate channels and that should help the little square icon with a circle on it at the bottom of your channels palette (make a selection, click the channels tab on the layers palette, then look at the bottom).

Id like to think its because im Danish that I do not understand that!



But take a look at this picture. See the selection made in the moz.png, how do I get that selection into the exact same position in that nam.png layer? I know I can drag it, but I need it to be placed at the exact same place in that file...

Sorry for the inconvenience!

well, you don't have your layers palette up, but when you do switch to your channels tab and hit the highlighted button (yours may be RGB and not CMYK):



that will create a new channel with your selection:


then you can select all of that new channel, copy/paste and paste it onto your other image. hope that made more sense...
