Description
Some people watching my video were curious as to how I managed to adjust a certain area of my image when the image is painted on many layers.I do it using ctrl + shift + c.

Thank you so much. I have been watching so many speedpaints and tutorials to find how other people accomplish this but not one of them explained this move. Now that I think about it, it might be too obvious for those who are so used to PS to remember to explain the technique.

To avoid overdoing the selection, use the Ctrl Shift C command, then put the pointer over the underbase layers thumbnail (if you have one for the dragons head) and hold Alt + Shift then click. You'll notice your pointer turns into a select icon with a X in it. this means it'll only select the cross section between your over selection and the underbase.

Awesome... I've always moved all the layers separately and it's a huge hassle. Thank you for this. c:

Maybe I don't do this right because it doesn't work for me. Strange.

Ah yes in fact it worked, but it's not the result I hoped for

probably late, but I noticed messing with the layer setting might sometimes give the effect you want. (you know where it says normal in the scroll bar, just click one at the time until you find a good one, and you'll have it memorized for later

Hehe, cool tip! I knew about Ctrl+shift+V that pastes "in place" but this is very useful.

I love you. I did not know you could do that. It's going to be just about as useful as Ctrl+Shift+C for me.

nice hint, thanks
but can't you circumvent the downside by just hiding the backgrund for the operation?
...is this a noob comment?
