I have problems applying the gradient to my custom shape.
I know there are millions of tutorials on the web and so many forums, but believe me I've been to as many as possible and I'm getting frustrated that their solutions do not work for me. Maybe I'm missing something very simple, but I need to get this down. Okay here is someone's solution that was posted on a photoshop forum:
Create a new layer
Command click on the shape layer (Control click on PC) to select
the shape
Select the new layer
Apply the gradient
I did all that, and it still does not work.
What bothers me is that their solution has worked for many, and not me lol. Anyhow, this is what happens with mine when I follow the above direction:
Once I have selected the shape and go to select the new layer, I loose the selection for the shape and only the layer becomes selected. And once I apply the gradient tool is applied, it is applied to all the new layer, not to do with the shape I wanted. Anyone?
thx
