Hi. Just upgraded to 2020 from an older version. I can't view the layers as I'm working on a project.

Most of the headings under LAYERS are grayed out, as are the options under WINDOW.

Any help, much appreciated. Thanks

@default7zgumj997di5, it is hard to see why the layer mask options are disabled in the Layer menu, without seeing the layers panel. Please provide a screenshot of the panel and tell us what you are trying to do with the layer mask. In the meantime, you may want to take a look at this HelpX Article about layers.

Do you have the Layers panel open? See the toggle in the lower right toolbar. You can also use F11 as a toggle. You must also have a photo open in the Editor for the Layers menu option to become active. If this doesn't solve your problem, please provide a screenshot of what you are seeing.

Hi Greg

Kindly help with some advice.

I have recently purchased Elements and am struggling with Layers, particularly certain functions being grayed out.

See attached screenshot not allowing "Reveal All" & "Hide All" under Layers / Layer mask.

Thanks

Brian
