ADOBE PHOTOSHOP ELEMENTS

Shift-click the adjustment layer thumbnail to 

turn off the masking effects temporarily; click the 
thumbnail again to turn on the mask.

Edit the layer mask:

To constrain editing to part of the mask, make a 

selection. (See “Making pixel selections” on 
page 103.)

To remove the adjustment effect or fill, paint the 

layer mask with black.

To display the full effect of the adjustment or fill 

over the image layers beneath, paint the layer mask 
with white.

To partially remove the adjustment effect or fill, 

paint the layer mask with gray. The extent to which 
the effect or fill is removed depends on the tones of 
gray you use to paint.

You can merge an adjustment or fill layer several 
ways: with the layer below it, with the layers in 
its own grouped layer, with the layers it is linked 
to, and with all other visible layers. You cannot, 
however, use an adjustment layer or fill layer as the 
target layer for a merge. When you merge an 
adjustment layer or fill layer with the layer below 
it, the adjustments are rasterized and become 
permanently applied within the merged layer.
(See “Merging layers” on page 174.) You can also 
rasterize a fill layer without merging it. (See 
“Simplifying layers” on page 173.)

Adjustment layers and fill layers whose masks 
contain only white values do not add significantly 
to the file size, so it is not necessary to merge these 
adjustment layers to conserve file space.
