TinaF Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Hello! I am trying to make a dyptich or a triptich. I can't seem to cut/paste and I think the reason might be here. It won't let me use clipboard. Is that the case and if so...how do I fix this? Thanks in advance!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samantha LaRue Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Nothing in that screen should have any bearing on your ability to cut and paste. Can you explain more about what you are trying to accomplish? Damien has an excellent tutorial for creating a triptych that'd I'd recommend: http://www.damiensymonds.net/2014/12/preparing-files-for-wrapped-triptych.html But it sounds like you might be doing something different since cutting and pasting shouldn't be necessary.

Damien Symonds Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 You almost certainly should NOT be cutting and pasting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaF Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 Thank you....I read the article but I want to do three separate images. I watched a video on how somebody else does it and they do cut and paste. When they start she opens a new file and it's from clipboard. I thought maybe that's why it wouldn't work for me. I just want to make a dyp or typ with different images...not the same one. How should I go about that? Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christina Keddie Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 If you want three separate prints, then you'd just do three separate files... Can you explain what you're trying to do? Three equally-sized wrapped canvases (or prints, or what), using three separate images? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaF Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Maybe I'm not using the right terminology. Just a collage of two or three pictures for an assignment the instructor and I've heard it called a triptych or diptych. I want to create a new image out of two different images. I want to be able to free transform each image and play with the size. Edited May 31, 2016 by TinaF addt info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Right, then this is probably what you need: http://www.damiensymonds.net/tut_collage.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samantha LaRue Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 If you just want to have multiple images on one document you can start with a blank document and then use File > Place Embedded to add the other images to it. If you want the collage to have a certain design or layout (template) you can create your own following these tutorials: http://www.damiensymonds.net/tut_collage.html If you just want a couple images side by side with no white space, I'd do it this way: http://www.damiensymonds.net/2011/09/making-before-and-after.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TinaF Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 Perfect! It worked! For some reason this time it worked and the clipboard option was open to use. I "placed" and didn't copy/paste. Thank you very much. I will read the articles. I wanted to go back and transform the collage a bit but it only went to the last one in. I'll read and see if it's explained as to if it's possible to go back to the first image in. Thank you so much!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
