: How to split into multiple layers when you've accidentally drawn two layers worth of material onto one layer? I drew two separate objects in Photoshop that are meant to be on different layers,

@Reiling762

There's an even faster method,


Select what you want on a separate layer with your favorite marquee or lasso tool
Right-click it and select "Layer Via Cut"

What you can do here is:


First duplicate the layer by pressing CTRL+J
Then use the mark tool (M) and mark the object you don't want on your first layer and hit CTRL+X
Go to your second layer and repeat, just with the other object.


Now you should have two layers with a single object on them both.
