I have a large picture that a part of which I have on a layer. The image itself is much larger than the layer itself. So when I chose transform, the edge marks/lines are way off the layer screen. I need to drag these layers to a new PS file of the same size and I dont want to bring over the entire huge image layer. Is there a way to have PS inverse select all alyer content not on the layer itself and trim it?

Select all. Then image… crop (will trim all layers). Or just select all, copy and paste to new doc. Or, select all, shift drag that layer to new doc.
