When I stretch my image across the two artboards it doesnt display on one of the artboards?

It would be great if someone could help me with this! 🙂

    Where did you read/see/hear that this was possible? Or is this just how you think/wish that the feature should work?

    EDIT: I'd suggest that you make a single canvas, then place a guide at the overlap. You can then save out both halves of the canvas separately via a number of methods.

    It's possible in Illustrator so it would logically follow that they would make the feature available in Photoshop, no?

    Nope, lots of features are different between the two applications. The idea of artboards is to keep your graphics separate AFAIK.


    Respectfully disagree, if the idea is to keep graphics separate then that idea should be constant between Illustrator and Photoshop, expecting one feature as basic as artboards to function the same way among two graphic-creation programs created by the same company just makes sense. What about raster graphics justifies that artboards in Photoshop should not allow graphic overlap that vector graphics do?
