Hi All,
Love the new site Keeper, it looks great.
I am using PS 7 and I have a series of History snapshots 6 to be exact and I was wondering if there is a way to be able to go back to say No. 3 and change something without losing snapshots 4, 5 & 6.
No. 3 snapshot is where I have selected a series of areas so i can change and experiment with colours . I have added other items to the photo in 4.5. & 6 and would hate to lose them and have to construct all of the them again.
Thanks
 
Hi ya limey! :)

Editing 1 snapshot, will not affect the others. I would suggest that after you edit the snapshot in question, that you take another snapshot. This way, you can always revert back to the "pre-edit" state. ;)
 
hello, make sure that you don't change the color mode (RGB, CYMK...) or the size of the image, otherwise, the history tools (history brush...) won't work between the different sized/moded steps!
 
Thanks Wendy and Pierre, that's great news I left my machine on all night with PS open as I didn't want to lose all of the History until I'd been able to make the changes to my photo.
Thanks again. :D
 
I was able to make a colour change to that snapshot as you both said I could but have run into a small glitch.
I did as you suggested Wendy and made another snapshot of the colour change making it snapshot No. 7.
On snapshot No. 6 an item which I had eliminated on the picture was now showing up on No. 7, fortunately it is not a big deal I can redo it. However I was wondering if there was something I should have done to prevent it from happening.
 
limey, I don't understand!!! [confused] [confused] [confused]
 
Wendy I replied to your comment about not understanding but for some reason it didn't show up and I've just now noticed it.
Anyhow not to worry I got everything sorted out now and it would be too complicated to explain what my problem was about the different snapshots.

Thanks for all of your help and suggestions.
 
B7 limey! ... just so long as I know that you're all sorted out! :)
