Illustrator :: CS5.1 On Mavericks Faint Grey Tools / Crosshair Cursor
Dec 7, 2013
the 3rd time of asking about the tools pallete.
I am using Illustrator CS5.1 on a iMac, I am working on 10.9 Mavericks, and now the crosshair/cursor/ various tools have almost dissappeared to a /faint grey in tint, will I have to wait for a fix from Adobe or Apple or is there something in preferences I can click to solve issue?
I Have already reported this 'Bug' via Adobe website.
I have to keep pressing my nose against the screen and squint my eyes to see where I am drawing and designing, it's not a pretty sight.

Re: Illustrator CS5.1 on Mavericks.
’m still trying to find a solution to faint cursors/crosshairs etc in tools.
altering screen display preferences, but did not work.

In CS6, what the little grey box is that appears when you hover over the center or corner of a rectangle? (Or other shape?) I recall seeing pixel dimentions at some point; has my interface become corrupted? (If so, what can I do?)

When I print in Photoshop CS5 on roll paper, there is a faint grey border that prints all around my image. I haven't created a grey border in my files.
what setting is creating this or what's going on? And how i can stop it?

I admit that I have used AutoCAD for several years now, but I have very, very little experience with 3D applications and needing to alter the typical horizontal/vertical coordinate system.
What I have is a file that, though the lower-left icon is horiz/vert, my crosshairs cursor is tilted approximately 30 degrees counterclockwise. This file, I believe, did originate in AutoCAD Civil 3D, so who knows what was done there. But, how can I get my crosshairs straightened out once more?
I have noticed a relation with the UCS and the cursor, when I've played with Orbits. I just can't grasp what that relationship is.

when i make my brush size very small (to the point that its only like 4pixels dot on the screen), a crosshair symbol automatically appears around it which makes it hard to see the cursor's surroundings when working on small details without zooming in alot (which would make a 4px cursor appear bigger thus losing the crosshair again). I guess this feature is there for people that might have trouble locating small cursors, but on a large tablet that allows very fast work without having to zoom in much, this makes things harder. Is there a way to disable this or modify some files or "hack" the cursor icons somehow and delete it?
(Tried all possible combinations of the PS prefferences but none of it seemed to be related to the cursor becoming a crosshair once the brush size gets very small relative to screenresolution)

Am using Photoshop CS6 on iMac 27inch with Mountain Lion. Experiencing inability to use the move tool to place one image on another after extraction. I place the move tool on the previously extracted image and drag it into an new image, but the extracted image does not get placed on the new image. Also, cursor disappears frequently when using Photoshop for extended periods of time.

I am running Photoshop CS6. There is a "widget" that follows my cursor around when using certain tools . This was not present when I was using CS5. It's a little black box with coordinates inside of it that follows my cursor around.

Any fixes coming for PSCC when the cursor vanishes (Don't say it's an Apple prob, because it only happens in PS and all 6 of my machines.) Also the tools freeze quite often and won't come back until I touch the desktop. Then PS plays catch up doing every click or hit I happen to hit in frustration. Reinstalled it twice from a clean install. This is not a release ready product. BTW I have been using PS since 1994 to color comic books and with photography.

I just put in a new Radeon 5770 card (PCI slot 1) into my Mac Pro 2008 Quad Core which is running Photoshop CS3. Now, the cursor (on all tools) disappears when mousing over any open PDS document. In Indesign, the cursor for all tools shows and works - as well as other pragrams.

How do I remove three images on the cursor when I have selected certain tools from the toolbox in Elements 9? I have just gotten a new computer and 9 was transferred to it from my old computer. Have never had this problem before.

There seems to be way too many tools in the tools panel for me. Many of them I will rarely, if ever use. Is there any way I can rearrange or remove some of them? It would unclutter the screen immensely.

I have an interactive board with tools (such as pen or eraser) which I want to integrate with the AI. The typical scenario woulld be as follows: the user lifts the pen from the tray, the pen event will me mapped into selecting Pencil Tool from AI toolbar after which the user can add freehand annotations to the AI document.
Is there an API which would allow me to map abailable hardware tools with relevant AI tools? Is there an example which would demonstrate such integration?

My old computer finally died, and so I just bought a new iMac with OSX Mavericks... I am wondering if my old Illustrator CS can be installed into my new iMac and if it would be compatible with OSX Mavericks? (I successfuly reinstalled my Photoshop CS4 and it is compatible with OSX Mavericks, but I am skeptical that such an old version of Illustrator will also install successfully)

In Xcode, we have to define cursor as:
resource 'CURS' (16001) {
$"00 00 00 00"
$"18 00 3C 00"
$"1E 00 0F 00"
$"07 80 03 C8"
$"01 E8 00 FC"
[Code]...
In Windows we use .cur file, simpler.
I want to convert .cur file to the mac format above, how?

pixel rendering does not seem to work correctly in Illustrator CC on OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
Objects are placed correctly, and stick to pixel grid, but Illustrator renders them as being off-grid.
I have installed Illustrator CS6 as a temporary solution, and the same file works correctly.

I'm using Adobe Illustrator 15.0.2 (CS5) on my iMac which is running Mavericks (OS 10.9.1). In the past, I've simply trashed my plist files in my user's Library's Preferences folder. I did this and it doesn't seem to work. I'm not computer savey enought to do any programming work without very clear instructions. I see that people have talked about the difficulty with doing such things in Mavericks.

When I try to launch Illustrator I get the message "To open 'Adobe Illustrator CS6,' you need a Java SE 6 runtime. Would you like to install one now?" When I click "install" it goes through a downloading process but then I don't get any download (that I can find) and nothing has changed and I still can't launch Illustrator. I've repeated this process three times.
InDesign and Photoshop seem to be running fine. It's only Illustrator which is giving me this problem.

Using Mavericks on my Mac I saved a swatch in the default folder in Photoshop CC as a .ASE file. The default folder path is: Users>myusername>Library>Application Support>Adobe>Adobe Photoshop CC>Presets>Color Swatches.
When I tried to load the swatch in Illustrator using 'Load> Other library' in the swatches panel I find that the Users>Library folder is hidden meaning I can't drill down. Obviously I could save my swatch in a more accessible place but am I wrong in expecting the default folder to not be hidden?
I can navigate to the Library folder at Finder level via the Go menu by holding the option key but I'm unable to do this in the Illustrator dialogue.
So my question is this: In order to share swatches between CC apps do I either have to save them in a folder I define or is there a way of accessing the hidden User>Library folder within a Load Library dialogue?

I installed Mavericks yesterday ... Am having issues with Illustrator. First it wouldn't open and had to runt he Java install, that took care of that. I am able to make new files without problem and open EPS files, but cannot open existing AI files UNLESS going to File > Open. If I double click on an AI file I get the error "The appliation can't be found"
I am not running any 3rd party plug ins.

as a user of pse 6 I 'm used to work with darkgrey background in the organizer.
This works perfectly for quickly assessing brightness and contrast of pictures.
In pse 10 however I could not find any button to change the preset lightgrey background colour to darkgrey.

I am currently running Map 3D 2012 with CadWorx and I am having an issue with one of my multi tab drawings. Any object set to plot grey (any grey), that is in paper space, is plotting black only in one of my layouts. similar objects in model space and in both spaces on other layouts are all plotting accordingly.
