Thank you Jesús for sharing such a neat trick!
I’m trying use this technique on a little photoshop project of mine where I have created a room full of frames at different angles. But whenever I try to use the perspective crop tool it gives me following error:
“Could not use the perspective crop tool because the image contains unsupported layers types”
Not sure why? I’m following each step as you show in the video. Can you help?

You can only use the Perspective crop on Pixel layers. If you have a Smart Object, Text Layer, or Vector Layer it will not work. If you need multiple smart Objects for multiple frames, then open two files. Make the smart object in one file, then place it on the second. Start from scratch on the first, and move on to the second frame. Then repeat the process.

Hi Jesus,

Thanks for the tutorial. I tried placing some logos on various scenes, but when I place the logo it always comes out distorted in the scene after I return from saving the logo into the smart object. Is this normal and do you always have to adjust each time you place it so image that your compositing isn’t too distorted?

This was working great until I got to the part where you said to press Alt+Ctrl+Z to undo or toggle to last state and to repeat that until I was back at the original image. I did this numerous time but never got back to the original state. It just kept looking like it was undoing the previous step. I did Alt+Ctrl+Z five times and never go back to the original state. I started completely over 4 times and kept getting the same results. Can’t figure out what I am doing wrong or if I need to contact Help Support.

Photoshop Tip Of The Day:

August 7, 2018

To activate multiple layers using your keyboard, press Shift Alt [ (Mac: Shift Option [) to activate the layer below the currently selected layer (or the ] key to activate the layer above).

You can keep adding to the selection one layer at a time by tapping on either of the bracket keys while holding down Shift and Alt (Mac: Option).
