Looking for little "f" in PSE 3 layers

[mayva]

I have seen this commented on many times in the posts here but for the life of me I do not see it in my program. I have looked and looked but nope not there...(of course I know I will probably get to eat those words... :lol:) Anybody have a screen shot that they can show me? Thanks

Anna,

You only get a little (f) when you have applied a layer style ... :)

you will see that little cursive ' f ' 'after' you apply a layer style. It will appear on the right side of the layer in the layers palette...the layer in which you applied the style. Double click the cursive ' f ' to bring up style options :)

[Jodi Frye]

Hi Wendy...8 clicks ahead of me...again ;)

[mayva]

When you say applied a layer style...do you mean when you type text and use say, a drop shadow is it suppose to show up then?

[Wendy]

Anna,

Yes if you apply a drop shadow then the little f will show in the layers palette.

Also try drawing a circle with the lasso tool, do Edit>Cop and Edit>Paste then apply any layer style ... once you have applied it the little f will appear in the layers palette. Double click on it and you will be able to adjust the effect.

I feel so silly :oops: After trying what you said Wendy I still don't see it.
Could you tell me the exact spot where I would find it?

Just want to add you ladies (Wendy and Jodi) are quick on the draw and I do appreciate it :D

Anna,

Have a look at this screen capture, at the lower right corner, in the Layers Palette. The text layer shows a little f at the far right.

well true to my word :oops: ....I am eating them as we speak...can't believe I didn't see that before....didn't realize that circle (oh boy there is that word again... :D had a little "f" in it.

Wow.... another lesson learned and a useful one at that. You guys (gals) are the best.

Thank you all very much for your time, effort and patience.

Anna :D

Mike,
Neat little photo border technique. Looks like a video training idea to me!

OK, now that that is sorted out what is the 'f' for? Hmm that kind of sounds wrong but what is the 'f' for?

[Wendy]

Sandie,

When a layer style has been applied .... double clicking on the little f gives you a chance to adjust some parts of the style.

I think Sandie is asking what the "f" actually stands for . . . and I don't have the answer :?

[Jodi Frye]

the ' f ' stands for ;

" F_ _ _ !... How come i didn't notice this option sooner !!! "

[Jodi Frye]

that was 'frig' :wink:
