Question

Vanishing Point – can’t move corner points on second plane (tutorials show it working)

Hi everyone,

I’m using Filter > Vanishing Point and I’m running into an issue I can’t figure out.

I create the first plane normally. Then I extend it by dragging a corner to create a second plane. Photoshop automatically creates the corner points for this new plane, but I can’t move or adjust those points — they seem locked to the original plane’s perspective.

What’s confusing me is that in every tutorial I watch, people are able to move and adjust the corner points on the second plane freely, while in my case only the original plane’s points are editable.

Is this expected behavior in certain situations (image type, plane angle, resolution, Photoshop version)?
Or could this be a setting or limitation I’m missing?

Thanks!

Hi @Julsh   When you have defined the first plane, hit C to define a new plane and start with your first point away from the first plane as below.  I am not convinced it is going to work with that bag as it is a bit skew-wiff and might not conform to a possible perspective.  I don't use VP much, but ISTR it can be fussy about what planes it will let you map.

It did let me create the second plane though.
