can't find hidden layer?

The top tile border in the screen shot below shows a much lighter top 20% (of the tile border) than what's below it, and the hard edge would seem to indicate that there is another layer somewhere, but the only Layer (other than Adjustment Layers) the reads for both areas is Layer 0.  Morevoer, when I toggle all of the Adjustment Layers for the upper area, none of them result in a uniform exposure and saturation as the lower area.  What is creating the lighter strip at the top?  Thanks.

Photoshop > Discussions is the correct forum for your post.

 

It's hard to tell by looking at your screenshot, especially with the generic names for the layers. You have narrowed the choices down to eight. You also have hidden layers that we can't see (notice the scroll bars), so we don't get the whole picture.

 

Are you on Mac or PC?

  • On those eight layers, try Cmd(Ctrl) + click the thumbnail in the Layers panel to see what gets selected. 
  • You might also Option(Alt) + click the eyeball on each of the six to hide the other layers. Repeat to show again. 

Do either of these help?

Not sure why you think that - this is in "Discussions" in the Photoshop ecosystem, and this post is about Photoshop.

Thanks, so I was posting in the right forum, after all.  Just wanted to be sure.

When folks post to the wrong forum by mistake, we can easily move posts to the forum more suited to their question. You're fine! 😊
