I am using Photoshop CS2. I am editing a friends files for him. It is for a web site then brochure.

The files he sent me seem to have adjustment layers that are indented and specific to one layer underneath.

All adjustment layers i have done in the past are active for everything underneath them. And when i read the help that is what it says.

It makes sense that you would be able to specify which layers they work on but i can not seem to figure out how to do that.

Can anyone help me.

Could be it is a very basic question.

Sounds like they are grouped with that layer, which is a way to make them specific to that layer.

To do/undo it, Alt-click on the line between the layers.

Hold down the alt/option key and click on the line between the adjustment layer and the layer you want it to affect: this will indent it.

Now..

I have created groups for him to use to move the little pieces i have created for him around and keep them together and size etc..

But when he drags them into a new project the group does not come so they are all separate layers.

It works on my end no problem.

Any ideas on that?

Well they are in Groups.

When i drag the group into a new file it stays in the group and everything is just fine.

When he drags it into a new file the layers are there but they are no longer grouped. He can regroup them after and use it but still strange.
