Auto-Blend Layers Button Greyed Out

Hello all,

Today I have been working on a project in which I need to use the auto-blend function. The issue that I am currently facing with this is that the button to do this is greyed out. I have both layers selected, everything is rasterized, I have cleared and expanded my selection although still the button is greyed out. I have even decided to delete the settings file to make sure there were no corrupt sectors but still as I say, the button is completely greyed out.

Thanks in advance for any advice,

Alex

Hi

There is a known issue with opening images from Lightroom, work around is to open Photoshop first and then Lightroom or disable the home screen in preferences

ITVAlexV,

Make sure that you have an RGB image. Auto-Blend does not work in CMYK.

    I have three images I want to auto blend in photoshop. Here is what I've done.

    1) From light room opened each image and saved them as 8 bit RGB psd file.

    2) From lightroom selected the three images and selected edit in photoshop as layers. Photoshop opens and has the three images as layers.

    3) I then arranged the layers in the order I wanted (top, middle and bottom)

    4) I then selected all the layers (They show as light grey)

    5) Selected edit and the auto align, auto blend and a few others are greyed out.

    What are the image’s Color Mode and bit depth?
