What is the first step in creating a new style named HANG from the layer named HANGING?

  1. Click on the HANG layer in the layers palette

  2. Select the Move Tool

  3. Change the Layer Blend mode

  4. Use the adjustments panel

The correct answer is: Click on the HANG layer in the layers palette

The initial step in creating a new style named HANG from the layer named HANGING involves selecting the layer you intend to base your new style on. By clicking on the HANG layer in the layers palette, you ensure that you are working with the correct layer, thus allowing any modifications or new style applications to be accurately applied. This action sets the context for subsequent manipulations, ensuring that the new style reflects the properties and attributes of the HANGING layer. While using tools like the Move Tool, altering the Layer Blend mode, or accessing the adjustments panel might be necessary later in the process, they are not foundational actions necessary for setting up the creation of a new style. These steps assume that the layer selection has already been made. Properly identifying and selecting the appropriate layer is essential before diving deeper into applying styles or making adjustments.
