Mustang Paintkit

   I'm just about to start pulling out my hair.

Done a new paint project, and follow the finished paint instructions.
However, I cannot select the first 1024x1024 square on the background section
using the Magic Wand Tool, because it highlights the entire 7 squares. 

When I merge copy, then paste (on the new square) a copy of the new paint
the first square appears.

The problem I have, I can't after that select any of the remaining squares of
the new paint job.

The instructions I'm afraid are not very clear to me.

If I use the rectangular marquee tool I can select all 7 squares individually
and save them as dds files.

However if I do this then although I can look into the cockpit windows from the
outside, when I place myself inside the cockpit the windows are blank and I can't
look out.

Maybe Jeff Smith can give me some idea where I'm going wrong.

  Thanks in advance for any help.

	Thanks for your reply Zjulik, I sorted the problem, it was not what you mentioned. I found it was easiest to select the squares 1 to 7 with the magic wand tool if I deselected layers base layer to shade layer, then make the selection and reselect the layers again before the copy and paste process on a new 1024x1024 square. That solved it for me.
