Working the latest version of LR classic and PS on an Acer desktop, windows 11. I imported a Tiff file into Lightroom. It's a large file because when I tried to copy and paste portions of it, the source file was too small. there weren't enough pixels. So have the same file with like a hundred icons and I want to edit it in PS but then I go to Photo, the edit in PS is grayed out. The open as layers is still an option. Is that what I am meant to do? Thanks

So if I understand you correctly then you want to open 'hundreds' of images from Lightroom in Photoshop? That would open them all as separate files, which I doubt you want anyway. Do you want to merge these images to become one bigger document? Then you do want to open them as layers of one single document.

John, Sorry to confuse. No I have purchased a Tiff file that contains hundreds to signs - you know traffic signs, warning signs - and I needed a Tiff file because it had to be large enough that I could lasso select. I imported the Tiff file into LR (I am using the latest version in windows) but now when I click on Photo and then edit in all the options are grayed out. Does that help? Below is a jpeg not Tiff of the same file just so you have a visual reference
