The step 1/2/3 actions don't play all the way through and I'm getting an error message.

Make sure that you don't have any empty or adjustment layers. Merge or group the adjustment layer with another layer (i.e the layer below). If you group the layers, make sure that the layer group is collapsed.

What layers do the actions work on?

The actions work on regular layers, Smart Objects, fill layers (sold fill, gradient, and pattern), layer groups, 3D layers, vector layers, shape layers, and text layers. They do not work on empty layers or adjustment layers. You must merge or group adjustment layers with another layer for it to work. Make sure that the layer group is collapsed.

When I use the ZXP file, it says that it is not compatible. How do I fix this?

ZXP files install through Adobe Extension Manager and you must have the latest version of Extension Manager CS6 or CC. If you can't get the ZXP file to work, simply doubleclick on the ATN file and it will show up in your Actions panel.

Is there an example PSD that I can use?

Yes, you can download a PSD to work with here: http://ge.tt/3gLdrD62/v/0?c

About

☀☀☀ Featured in Photoshop Creative Magazine! ☀☀☀

A more presentable way to display your layers! 3D Layers gives you the power to turn your layers into 3D extrusions with just one click.

Easy to Use

Simply select a layer and play one action to create an extrusion. From there on, you can extend/shorten the extrusion, rotate the angle, add highlights/outlines, etc using actions.

Editable Layers

Need to make a change? All layers are fully editable so that you can make the changes without undoing a bunch of steps. Simply play the "Edit Extrusion Layer Contents" action, make your changes, then play the "Save Extrusion Layer Contents" action.

Smooth Edges

Isometric transformations can cause jagged edges. These actions apply smart smoothing to eliminate jagged edges. You can also switch between crisp, smooth, or ultra smooth edges.

Full Transparency Support

Layers will always look great because they support transparency perfectly. No additional steps are required.

Batch Mode

Turning one layer into a 3D extrusion is easy. What if you need to do it to all your layers? Simply use the step-by-step batch mode to speed up your process.
