And for a good reason.
There is no "load path" in the path palette flyout.
What exactly are you trying to do?
Turn a path into a selection?
If so: path palette flyout>make selection
Paste a path from somewhere else?
If so, from where?
We need more info to help.
I’m sorry for the lack of details. I traced an image with the path option under the pen tool. it’s a closed path, should I be able to save and load the selection? It seems to save the selection but I can never load it.
Click on the named path to load it.
Should I be able to load the selection in a new image?
When you click on the path, it is a selected path, not a selection. To make it a selection, there is a button under the path menu that does this. You can use this selection on any layer. If you want to use it in a new image, save the selection (it will save as a channel) and drag this channel to another image. You can then load this channel as a selection in the new image.
Your messages have helped so much, I really appreciate it! I do have one more question and I hope it’s not stupid. Say you turn a path into a selection, can you turn the selection back into a path if it needs adjoining? I do have a book but it doesn’t go into much detail about this topic.
