Moving Image From Tab to Layer

[Tobiasscott]

I know this this easiest thing in the world. I can't figure out for the life of me why I can't do this. I have multiple Images up in tabs. I want to bring each tabbed image to my first one to start stacking them in layers. I've tried grabbing Image 2 to place on image 1 by dragging images 2 background layer to image 1s tab. Its won't drop into it. I've pulled image 2s off the tab into a separate window over image 1 and held Shift and dragged over image 1 one and still doesn't add it to a layer. What amdoing wrong here? Thank you

Hi,

You could go to Arrange 3-Up or how ever many images you have open

Then drag the images from the Layers palette over the file you want to, hover over the file until you see a white border and then realise to add the image.

Thanks,

Sim

Set your workspace to one of the tiled arrangements, rather than tabbed. Then use the Move tool to drag from one document window to another.
