hi everyone.
i have started using elements 3.0 for photo editing etc, and need to know how to get the "copy/paste" option to work.
i do a lot of what i call multi image work, for example pasting 4 3x2 portrait pics onto a 6x4 portrait blank and having it printed with the 4 smaller pics on the 6x4 photo.
i use elements 3.0 to crop and resize the 4 photos to 3x2 @ 300dpi, giving me 4 pics at 900x600. i then create a 6x4 (1800x1200) white portrait blank but i cant seem to copy each of the 4 3x2 pics onto the 6x4 blank.
if i open one of the 3x2 pics, go to the "edit" menu, there are no "cut/copy/paste" option working, they are blanked out, and if i use "right click mouse" option, all i get is the "select all" option.
if i use the "select all" option then open the 6x4 blank, i cant find a way to "paste" the 3x2 image into the 6x4 blank.
i can do this task perfectly in microsoft photo editor (a componant of microsoft office xp pro) i just open each of the saved 3x2 pics>right click mouse>select copy> close the image>open the white 6x4 blank>right click mouse>then paste the 3x2 image. i repeat this 4 times till the 4 3x2 pics are on the 6x4 blank, then have it printed.
just cant seem to do it in ELEMENTS 3.0
anyone have a resolution, i cant seem to find anything relating to this sort of thing in the help option or guides. im happy to cont doing it the way i do at the moment, but want to do it all "inhouse" with elements 3.0
any help appreciated and have posted a sample of what im trying to do.
cheers....GLEN
