markbri Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 The layer information I had in my .pdn files seems to have disappeared when I upgraded to version 3.0. The layers are still there, but it collapsed everything into the background layer. I no longer have the layer information. Is there some way to get it back?

Rick Brewster Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I'm guessing you probably flattened the image or saved it in a non-.PDN file then. The file format itself hasn't changed at all in quite some time.

markbri Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 I still have the original .pdn file. It opened prior to updating with all the layer information there. It seems like the preview of the layer information disappeared. All I'm getting is the checkerboard background on the preview of all of the existing layers. The background preview has all the layers in it. But now it seems as though the individual layer information is still in the listed layers. When I turn off selected layers, I see the resultant change in the image. Pretty strange. I am just seeing a behaviour I wasn't expecting.

Illnab1024 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Rick: It sounds like the layer thumbnails aren't being rendered right in prev. version PdNs? mark: Try making a mark in the layer with the pencil tool. Does the thumbnail update? How does it look? Quote ~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Illnab1024, the thumbnails aren't stored in the file.

Illnab1024 Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I know that, but that doesn't mean there can't be a glitch when the program sees the older version in the metadata... Quote ~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
