Paint Shop Pro :: Layers Drag And Resize Not Functioning Correctly?
Oct 17, 2013
Working with layers in Paintshop Pro X6 instruction # eight says: To resize (the layer that I just placed on my background image) click on one of the corner nodes and drag outward. But no corners or nodes are showing for me to drag the layer to where I want to position it. It seems like a step is missing from the instructions.
So as it stands, I can get my layer onto the background image but I can't resize or reposition it at all.

I recently bought PSPX4 from Corel. I Installed it into my new Gateway tower. Everything works fine EXCEPT that my bamboo pen won't drag (for example when I use the erase feature or any makeover tools). I tried resetting PSPX4 to the default. I also tried opening a new administrator account, deleting the PSPX4 and reinstalling it. I went as far as reinstalling an old PSPX2. The pen now won't drag in either program. Tech support made the suggestions, which I followed, but the issue is still not resolved. By the way, my pen will drag on my desktop and in Capture NX2 and other programs, just not in PSP.

CS6 Photo Down loader locks up when I attempt to download photos. Buttons like browse, settings, get media do function. This worked fine with CS5 Bridge on this machine. The machine is a windows 7 box.
I had CS5 Master Suite side X side installed with CS 6 Master Suite. When I noticed problems with the CS 6 Photo Down loader not working correctly I uninstalled CS5 Master Suite. This did not resolve the issue and I am stuck with lots of photos that are unable to be downloaded using CS6 Photo Down loader.

Since I first upgraded from PSP X3, 5 months ago the eraser tool has worked great. But just in the last week I have been having problems with it not working correctly. It seems like it is faded and not erasing like it should. The hardness IS raised up to 100 but still no luck. The background eraser is working great, it is only the eraser tool that is acting up. Here is a screen capture of what it is doing.

Some of the images I have taken with my Olympus 7010 still camera, when opened up in PSPro X, are not showing correctly.A portion of the image is sectioned and the smaller part of the image has moved along horizontally, the effect being that for instance, a person's head is not on the body but further along the image. This only happens now and again but is annoying, the last time 2 out of 24 images were like this.They were loaded on to my pc via the camera's card,in a card reader.

Will Photoshop correctly open a psd file saved using PSP X16? Will all layers remain intact?

It has come to my attention that the new drag-resize feature only changes the master diameter of the brush but leaves the dual-brush diameter intact. It is the only shortcut that does this resizing improperly.
I would like to know if everyone else experiences the same problem. Is it a bug or is this way of resizing intended?
I mainly do digital paintings and this small bug makes the feature useless for me. I hope that it will be fixed at least in cs5.

I just created a new account to make visible that I write the following description not as member of the Corel support team "Simone Corel UK", but as private user of PSPX4.
However, the reason for writing about this were indeed requests by users who were wondering about the Resize function and how it works.
I don't mean the "72" bug (you know that it looks like PSPX4 would open and save all images only with 72dpi), which has been addressed to the DevTeam and which will be solved.
Everything I'm writing now, is the private person Simone.
I discovered the Crop tool in PSP X2 about 2 years ago. I clicked by chance on the "Maintain aspect ratio" and realised that it fits perfectly my work flow. Sometimes, I only need a section of an image. I enter my final size, I tick "Maintain aspect ration" in Property tool bar, then I expand the Crop tool to that area I want to cut and double-click. When I resize now my image, it has exactly the final size that I need.

After I resize an image with Paintshop X4 the image on the work area is so tiny, like 1" X 1" I'm talking a 2000 X 2000 pixel image. How do I prevent this?

I wish to report a bug that has been present in x4 and x5 regardless of SP or updates installed. Due to this bug I use X3 as it was the last version that worked for me.
The bug is that several menu buttons on the Edit screen will not display correctly, it is as if the icon is corrupted. This happens with the free trial version as well as with a registered version with updates installed.
See the attached screen shot as it explains this much better.
Computer Specs:
Win XP Pro w/SP3 32bit
ATI video 512M w/latest drivers
2G Ram
240G HDD
Intel 3.01Ghz CPU
X4 & X5 Button Display Bug

I have a bunch of WMF files I'm trying to open at a large size and then concert to PNG with a recorded script batch but I'm not quite sure how to get a script to do the entire sequence. When I open each graphic it brings up the Meta Picture Import screen. I need them to be re-sized to about 2000 pixels wide. (They can all be this size for ease of import.) I then need them all saved as PNGs.
I can record a script to to save them but I'm unsure how to get it to open and re-size first them THEN do the save so I can run it as a batch on the folder. Can I script the entire process?

Every time I resize an image, the image in the workspace shows at a certain percent and I have to scroll to zoom in to view it at the normal size. The percent varies from image to image.

I've been a long time PaintShop Pro user, but rarely use plugins. I believe I've used some Photoshop plugins on an earlier version, but I can't get onOne's Perfect Resize to work. Here's the instructions for their PS plugin:
[URL]
What's the analogy to those instructions in PSP? "Batch Process" seems the most likely candidate for "Automate", but there's no Perfect Resize options there.
I understand that X6 will load 8LI plugins, is that correct? How about Panels? I've both pointed PSP to the Perfect Resize directory, as well as copied the plugins into PSP's default plugin directory. No joy in either case. Both programs are x86 & x64 and neither makes a difference.
Are there any logs that may indicate whether the plugin is being loaded, or errors if it's not?

Smart Photo Fix box was resizable, or barring that, if the box did not take up over 1/4 of my monitor!
This box obscures far too much of the image I am trying to correct! And it does not need to be this large based on its content!

I can't seem to click and drag an image with the mouse when using Full Screen Preview under the Edit Tab.
I see the hand icon and the scroll bars when the whole image can't fit on the screen but when I left click it's like I hit the Esc button.
Clicking the scrollbars will work but isn't as convenient. Under the Manage tab it works correctly. I have reset the workspace with no luck.
I use this feature a lot and would like to know if others have this problem.
The problem existed in X5 SP2 and now X5 SP3.

I'm getting some erratic results with PSPX4. I download my CR2 canon files to lightroom, process, export as Tiif or jpeg, then open in PSPX4. I then edit the pic resize to 800x600 jpeg, quality 3. The file is usually about 300-400 kb, a jpeg. I have a couple of files that are corrupted on resizing and are only 12.0 kb in size. I can't upload to my website, - the error message says they are corrupted. I'm not getting it with every file, but two in the last batch of ten files processed had this effect.
I tried restarting the program, same effect on those two files. I tried reprocessing in lightroom again , exporting as jpeg and tiff, same result. I can save the files out of PSPX4 as png format, no problem, no corruption.My workflow is the same across a large number of files, - hundreds of em, normally no problem. Just can't figure out what would cause this erratic problem.
I can open and save the problem files in gimp, which makes me think the problem is specific to PSPX4, but why does it not affect every file, only 20%??? Tried re installing PSPX4, no difference.Below is one of the problem jpegs file straight from Lightroom, before I load it into PSPX4.

I am trying to create a script (that I can run on a batch of images) that will resize the images to a set width but will maintain the proper aspect ratio of the images. There are many images and they are all different dimensions.
I want to resize them for webpages to a standard width (300) and have the height be automatically adjusted to the new width (proper aspect ratio).
When I try to create the script, it automatically uses the aspect ratio height of the image that was used to create the script.
When it runs on additional images it automatically sets their height to the height of the first image (used to create the script). As all of the images have different dimensions, the end result is wrong.
Is there a way to write the script so that it will maintain the proper aspect ratio of multiple images, all with different dimensions?

I have a .PSP file with several layers. I would like to save at once each layer as a different .PNG file. Is it possible?
I could set and save just visible layers one by one, but my point is to find some automation.

I haven't really used PSP for doing custom graphics, mostly for working on photos; but before that I was using Adobe Photoshop and I liked (and still do) how it made saving easier than PSP does. Unfortunately Photoshop is horribly expensive so this is a better option.
I can't figure out for the life of me how to save .psd or .eps with the layers? It keeps telling me that due to how I am saving or the file format the alpha layers will be lost and so on.

I have Paint Shop Pro X4 which I am using to try and manipulate images of postage stamps. I scan the stamp using a film/slide scanner and using the cmyk splitter can produce a good images of the watermark and postmark cancellation, which I save separately. On a lot of the older stamps the plate number, from which the stamp is printed, is engraved into the design of the stamp and quite often this number is obliterated by the black cancellation mark. Is there any way using layers, or any other X4 feature, I can lift the cancellation mark from the image to see what is underneath?

I'm using 3-5 adjustment layers on some of my work. Even though I have larger files, without Adjustment layers, once I add an Adjustment Layer to ANY piece of work things slowdown big time. For example a 'normal' curves application is almost instant. But if I add a curves Adjustment Layer then what took 1-2 second takes 10-15 seconds using an Adjustment Layer.
So is there something that Adjustment Layers are doing that is a computer hog? Or am I overlooking something? Or are they just configured in such away that they are naturally slower? [URL]....

I am having trouble adding tools to my layer palette in X4. Previously I use X2 and can perform this action. However it seems to be lacking in X4 and I certainly miss that.
In X2 I could easily add duplicate layer in the layer tab and all I had to do was a single click the tool and I could perform this action, it was convenient keeping in the same area where I could also delete the layer.
I know in X4 I can add the duplicate layers in the top toolbar, however it is not as convenient and seems to be counterintuitive to have it away from the delete layer tool. I also miss the other layer palette customizations.
Is there any other way to add the duplicate layers on the layers palette? Is there a way to perhaps copy the workspace from x2 to x4(probably a silly question).

I'm having an issue with layers not opening properly. I have a file that is a .psd, and when I open it initially, the layers are there. Then, if I save it, it pops up a box saying "because of the limitations of the specified file format (and possibly the save options you have selected), group data will be converted to raster data. Would you like to continue?
If I hit "yes", when I reopen the file, it only has 2 layers. What do I need to do in order to save it with all the layers in tact?

I have just upgraded to W7 and a new computer and now find that when I drag in directly from a folder or open from within X4 the images that are saved as PSD file (originally created in Photo Shop by a friend for me), opens all layers individually rather than one image with all the layers contained to edit. Before the update to W7 I had Vista and the image went in to X4 as expected, contained as one image with editable layers.

When I was experimenting before, I was able to see the different layers listed on the RH side of the workspace. Now they are not appearing at all. I have searched but still cannot view the list of the layers I have created.
This in turn means I cannot work on them. And yes, I have got the View>Palettes>Layers box ticked. How to view these layers listed?
