Illustrator :: Transform Tools Working In Reverse?
Feb 18, 2014
I have been working with creating the effect of indented text. I have created a new fill which I placed behind my original one.I then went to "Effec" Transform & Distort" " Transform". I was going to add a vertical move of 1px - BUT it doesn't move vertically? My fill is moving downwards 1px?!
I thought I was going crazy until I zoomed in and applied the same setting again....sure enough it is moving down for veritical and vertically for down.

The two selection tools in CS6 Illustrotor not working properly. They don't select the object when I click and drag a box around them and the handles on drawing path won't stay highlighted when I use the direct selection tool so I can adjust them

Version: Illustrator CS5.1
System: Mac OS X 10.8.5
Whenever I use a Shape tool for which the up and down arrow keys change its attributes, the up and down arrow keys skip several states. So for example, a star can go from 5 points to 12 points if I tap the up arrow key once, skipping 6 - 11 pointed stars entirely. It happens with polygons, spirals, and the flare tool as well.
I tried using a different keyboard, but the problem persisted. I also used my keyboard with another computer and Illustrator behaved just fine. So it's definitely a problem with the software.

In the attached photo, I've already done some transforming and cropping to the get the top of the photo to be relatively straight.
I'm pretty sure what I need to do now is find a way to get the lower left of the photo to be pushed down and to the left to both: stop the appearance of that side of the photo jutting out more and to straighten out the white sign that says SOHO NOW OPEN so that it's flush with the top. However, I've tried all the transform tools and none of them are making that happen for me.

Left - Marquee Tool > Transform > Skew
Middle - Liquify filter with "use graphic processors" selected
Right - Liquify filter without (same result)
Image above is at 200% zoom
All Transform tools cause jaggy edge. I've only tried these tools and Liquify for the last month and a half.
Uninstalled, re-installed Windows, Photoshop, graphic card - Evga 560 ti - drivers (all versions). No prevail.
CS5 works flawlessly on this system. These tools also work fine on my laptop which use Radeon HD3470.

I recently started having this problem in Photoshop CS6 where using the transform or selection tools makes all the layers other than my background layer disappear so I can't see what I'm selection or transforming. This happens randomly out of nowhere. I can be using those tools all day with no problem, and then out of nowhere it starts making things invisible.
There doesn't seem to be any other programs running that would cause it (not that that should be an issue, my computer could easily run all my Adobe programs at once if I wanted it to), and the only thing that seems to fix it so far is restarting Photoshop. But that gets old really fast when I have to do it over and over again. I tried calling Adobe, but somehow they're always closed, even during their supposed hours of operation.

Having a lot of issues manipulating points on paths in Illustrator CC - this is a fundamental feature of creating vector graphics and it's very annoying I'm paying for this and it's just not working. Eating up a lot of my time simply because I can't select or convert or add the anchor.

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?

I am using AutoCad Civil 3D 2012, with windows XP, and when I type "extrim" at the command line, I get this:
Command: extrim
"bad argument type: listp #<SUBR @2f9669b0 BONUS_ERROR>"
There are also a few other express tools that when picked from the ribbon menu, do not work either. Now, I have seen elsewhere on the web that in this case, you should make sure there are no search paths set to R14 Bonus tools (which mine aren't), or repair and update express tools from add/remove programs in the control panel. I did this, and the only thing that happened was the numbers after SUBR@ changed.

I select a bunch of mixed layers like shapes, smart objects and text by dragging my selection marquee around them. I am able to move everything around the art-board but when I Ctrl+T and resize the selected objects, ONLY the shapes are transformed. Everything else remains untouched.
There are too many bugs with CC...this program is quickly becoming unusable.
This problem only seem to happen when I have the Text tool selected and I hold Ctrl and drag to select (it turns into the black arrow). HOWEVER if I press 'V' to select the move tool and drag that and then use Ctrl+T it works as it should. So the problem lies when the user has the Type Tool selected and uses Ctrl+drag to select objects.

When I use the free transform tool crtr-T and use the ctrl drag button, the corners do not extend properly. It extends universally as aposed to a distorted corner-pull. I uninstalled CS6 and reinstalled still getting the same result.

Illustrator 15.1/CS5 on Mac used to display selected text in reverse and would show handles for text on a path. Now it does neither.

I use CS3. For some reason when I logged in, none of my tools are working, such as smudge, erase, etc. CS3 seems to be working, because I can use the menu's so it seems like just the tools are not working. I appreciate any help you can offer.

My photoshop tools do not work. None of them.
Worked fine yesterday, but today when I launched Photoshop, I got a message from my firewall (online Armor) that Photoshop.exe may be recording my keystrokes. I clicked 'allow' and it launched Photoshop.
Went to open a file and I got another OA message that Photoshop.exe was trying to get a screenshot.
I again clicked allow and the file opened. All the tools in the toolbar are frozen, not working,
I've reset prefs, checked for corrupt fonts, reinstalled twice, and downloaded the Adobe Liscensing patch with no change in the results.
I havent changed any settings or downloaded anything, run my antivirus scans

I need to change the direction of type on a path. Basically it is writing the sentence backwards right now. I need it to type right to left instead of left to right so the first word of the sentence will be all the way left instead of all the way right.

I have a rectangle over a larger imported image, and I would like to get rid of the area that the ractangle covers. Clipping mask does the opposite, getting rid of the area outside, and pathfinder only works for paths, not imported images.

CS6 (Design & Web Premium)! Beautiful interface with terrific power. Just updateded from CS4.
ISSUE in PS CS6:
When I'm retouching with a tool (like the clone tool) consecutively (maybe 7-12 times), I get a "bink" sound, as if the tool has locked up. I can't use hot keys (keyboard short cuts) to undo, resize or resample without getting this "bink" sound. I've clicked on the "move" tool then select the cloning tool (with my mouse) but that only works for 1 more spot.
The "bink" continues for any other hot key (keyboard short cut) operation. I don't want to purge history until I'm completely finished. Quitting / relauncing PS clears this but only until I use the tool consecutively a few times again. What is causing that and how do I fix it?
I'm a power user with 300 images to retouch on a very tight deadline. Eeeeep.Keyboard short cuts are my salvation.

it is with the drawing pen, I have found that, when I load photoshop for the first time after starting the computer, the pen works as intended but if i were to close photoshop and reopen it later, the pen will cease to function with the program, despite my actions appearing in the history

OK, not only is PS-CS S L O W loading but as I was working on an image file with the brush and image adjustment tools I was noticing that the pixels in the image are moving away from the tool that I am using. So if I am using the brush tool, covering an area that needs some black the pixels in the area to be covered are moving and even jumping a little as I'm applying the color. It's not a smooth transition from one color to another. I'ts a bit disconcerting with this occurring as you are working.
It's not the video driver, I just updated it this morning and I've got a good scratch disk asigned to PS-CS and plenty of RAM and disk space.

I was trying to cut out a bridge stock today, and all of my selection tools are suddenly acting psychotic. Whether it's a lasso or a marquee tool, they all give me this result when I try to select something:
I haven't trying restarting Photoshop, but I just wanted to know how to fix this and how I can prevent it from happening again.

The selection tools, i.e. shape, freehand and magic wand, have suddenly stopped working. I do freehand, double click and nothing happens. The freehand selection actually disappears. I click magic wand and nothing happens.

I've got CS2 and have been trying to learn all the new features. I was trying to add text (type) to a web layout last night and experienced a rather weird (at least to me) problem that I can't seem to figure out and from everything I've read isn't supposed to happen.
If I select any of the type tools (regular or mask, hor or vert), and then either click for point type mode or click and drag for paragraph mode, all of the text I enter is placed on top of itself. In other words, say I type an 'N' and then an 'O', then O will be placed on TOP of the N. This continues as long as I type.
Is there some setting that's been inadvertantly set? I'm able to use the type tools in Illustrator perfectly fine, but not a clue as to whats wrong with Photoshop.
