Scenario:
I open an image/ Background layer. I duplicate that layer, and apply a Levels adjustment that I’m happy with.
Next, I decide to do an "effect" layer such as sharpening, etc., but I want to be able to control the effect of the "Sharpening" Layer with the Opacity Slider, without effecting the Levels Layer below.
If I Duplicate the Levels Layer, or select Layer New-"Layer Via Copy" for the Sharpening Layer, moving the Opacity Slider, on the Sharpening Layer, will also effect the degree of Levels adjustment on the Levels Layer, as it’s a Duplicate of that layer.
"New Layer", or "New Layer From Background" doesn’t seem to work either???
Best regards,
Leigh
