ARGH! I am so annoyed right now! I have just spent several days making numerous posters for ideas for the final copy and now I find all the Lyers in the files are merged into one layer! I usually I make a dozen or so files before choosing the best one to go back and edit.
After starting up again today I realised that I needed to make a slight alteration on a previous poster and discovered that there was only a single layer contained within the PSD file with all the content merged together! I checked other files and they were all the same! This means I have at least 20 PSD files that are practically useless!
I cannot understand why Layers was not selected as default in the save as window!! I certainly never turned it off in the save as window and no one else uses my computer… Unless it had something to do with the fact that when I was saving PDF files of the same documents and unclicked the "preserve Photoshop illustrating capabilities" in the second window that pops up so the PDF would not be as big… but even so I did not click it in the save as window… and therefore assumed it would only apply to PDF files! If this is the reason then I’m bloody annoyed that they would implement such a stupid feature! What other use is there for PSDs then to preserve the layers!?
I have never had this problem before on other computers or copies of Photoshop… Unless this has something specifically to do with CS3?
I donΒt suppose there is any way to retrieve my lost layers so I can edit the files? Or do I just have to start all over again?
