ok so i just bought quite a few templates including the baby book ones by Erica H. anyways i was reading somewhere that i can put my layers in there right spot by hitting the shift key as im putting each layer together but when i do that nothing happens, the layer still centers vs. going where it should

any ideas

TIA

Oh i have PSE5

First you have to make sure that you are dropping one file into a file of the exact same size. SO if you are using the letter size templates, make sure you have a letter size document open. Select your layer and drag it over the doc you want to drop it in, then hold the shift key when you drop it and it should line up. It took me a few times to figure out when to shift. I was hitting the shift when I selected the layer and not when I dropped it. My mom was trying to drop the layers into a differently sized document and that doesn't work either. I hope that helps.

 

BTW, your pages are coming along nicely! It will be so much easier if you can get the shift thing to work. :)

Try clicking and holding shift before you move the element/layer and hold it until it is on the new document. Alternatively, go under "Layer" then "duplicate layer" and in the dialog box scroll down to the name of your new document. This will place it correctly.

 

Hope that helps! :)
