Hi!

I'm placing graphics from Library in Adobe Photoshop but these graphics are placed as "Bouncing Box" and I need it will be placed as "Media Box" or "Crop Box". How can I set Photoshop options for this?

Thanks in advance.

I am trying to figure out the AI files like you have. I think the problem is in Ai files layout.

In Ai there isn't background. The background color you can set only by placing any shape on artboard.

Please provide more details. What you mean saying "Bounding Box" or "Ccrop Box". What type of graphics is it?

Thank you

I add two screenshots:
First one is where I have the problem. When I place (copy or linked) an image, this image appears like the "Bounding Box" option when you go File>Place Linked/Embedded.Screen Shot 2018-02-27 at 15.51.56.png

Second one image is the options to place an image when you go File>Place Linked/Embedded.

I need to place images from Library as "Crop Box" or "Media Box". Anyone knows how to set up the Library options to do this?


Thanks in advice.

For first part of you have to:

Keep graphics up to date with linked assets

When using library assets that may be modified, use linked assets for peace of mind.  When an original asset is modified, all project files using the linked asset will be updated to the latest version. Assets dragged from the Libraries panel are linked assets by default.

To edit an asset independently from the original in your Library — unlinked — press Alt (Windows) or Option (macOS) while dragging it from the Libraries panel.

Thank you so much Ares for your fast answer.

There is something that I don't understand because when I do the same in Illustrator (place graphics from the Library), it don't happens! In Adobe Illustrator images are placed in "Crop Box", the image placed has all the size of the worktable original meanwhile in Adobe Photoshop the image placed only has the size of the graphic content.
I hope that could help you to understand my problem.


Thanks in advice.

I'm importing .AI files and they have no background.

I recently verify that the problem happens only with some of those .ai files; Other files that are in the same Library works right, when I place its the appears with the worktable size. I think it would be a problem of settings of some files.

Some days ago it worked right, so my problem is that I don't know why this change happened (maybe a Creative Cloud update?).
