View 11 RepliesI noticed this was a question when CS4 came out; I've just upgraded from CS3 to CS6 so am experiencing the problem decribed in an earlier thread here:

I have an Nvidia Geforce 7900GS card with an old 2006 driver, 8.4.4.0 I tried updating to driver 306.81 from earlier this month and whilst this solved the brush issue, it caused the PC's cooling fans to operate much more frequently (and noisily) than before so I concluded it was not so suitable for my card.
In view of this, should I be trying an older driver, say from 2009 as the earlier post suggests "because that bug was fixed by Nvidia back in the Spring of 2009"
If so, which one?
I'm running XP, SP3 PC has dual core Pentium CPU 3.4GHz, 4GB RAM (3.25 useable with XP) CS6 updated with all available updates.
This happens occasionally-out of nowhere the brush tool stops showing as a circle of specfic diameter and shows as a crosshairs, which does me no good whatever. This goes for all tools using the brush presets-brush, eraser, and stamp. I can't do anything. because I can't see the tool I'm working with. I tried restarting PS, then restarting with trashed prefs. Neither worked. I know that sooner or later it will come back and all wil be well, but meanwhile, the deadlines are creeping closer & closer. The enemy is at the gates.

I'm wondering if I have a defective program because the tool icon disappears when I switch tools and then reach for a new brush size. I have to click on my desktop to have the tool appear on my monitor. Also, is there a way of getting rid of the huge sample idicator that appears when you sample a color?

I've created a new art Brush: New brush>Art Brush> and made my selections and clicked ok. The brush then shows in the brush palette where I have access to use it but then when I close the document and reopen a new one the brush dissapears. Where did it go and how do I get it back??
Not sure where I am going wrong in saving the brush.
why do brush-windows from the library disappear when restarting illustrator (even when saving the workspace)? idon't want to use the "brushes" window becauseui can't switch through my brush libraries as comfortable..

One of my online photography students said that she couldn't see any changes in a selective sharpening technique using Unsharp Mask, and it seemed that she had missed a step in the process.
But, when I tried it in CS6, using a 16 bit image, I could only see the sharpening affects in the preview window in the USM filter and then in the main image in the UI when the image was enlarged to above 75% or so. If the image is set to view fully in the UI, usually around 26% it looks like the previous version of the image without sharpening changes. I also get the effect of the sharpening increasing as I enlarge the image further and it looks over-sharpened at 300% or more.
in particular, do I have to increase the the size of the image in the UI to see any sharpening - or is there a way to see it without enlargement in the UI - perhaps at 8 bit?
When I enlarge a brush shape past its "original" size (which for every shape is way too small for the most part), it gets pixelated. The attached jpeg is from a 300dpi 16-bit CMYK file.
It's especially obvious with stars, snowflakes, ornaments, this kind of thing. Can't make a clean 300px star, for example. Pretty sure I was able to enlarge these things with no problems in CS4.

Created layers of vector artCombined them into a smart object. Enlarged the smart object (both via "Transform" and "Image Size") Upon enlarging, the vector objects look the way an enlarged bitmap would (i.e. fuzzy, pixelated, terrible) instead of crisp and clean as a vector should look. I've double- and triple-checked to make sure all layers have remained vector after resizing and they have.
This is a terrible inconvenience for anyone that works heavily with vector smart objects and resizes them. I use this workflow on a daily basis to make adapting interface elements for various screen resolutions easier, without it I am beyond screwed.

I captured the attached image from a MythTV recording. A buddy of mine would get a kick out of it if I could find a way to enlarge it such that it looks good on a Letter- or A4-sized printout.
I've enlarged the image 10x and successfully applied the "Despackle" filter, but the lines in the cartoon look pretty blurry. The "Sharpen" and "Antialias" filters don't seem to readily do what I want them to do.

I am working in paperspace with a viewport and when I created it I noticed what apeared to be a very large yellow hatch. When I selected the yellow object it turned out to be a Block created to display gas wells on my map. I then went to model space to investigate only to find that the blocks are all to the appropriate size. I checked to see if there was an annotative scale associated with the blocks and there is not. Also the scale set to the blocks are 100 in model space but for some reason in paper space, they are set to 1.00. If i try to change this scale to 100 it automaticaly corrects it to .004. What could possibly be causing this? (for whom it may concern the gas well blocks look like a circle with lines portruding from it like an abstract sun with an id number below them)

Just for practice, I have downloaded a photo of a cherry and a leaf. Not great art, but a nice clear photograph. Of course I want it to be larger than the thumbnail image, so I have blown it up to 6"x6" Now the edge of the cherry, the leaf and the stem are all jagged. I know that is because of the pixels - but I still want to know how to get around it and smooth the edges when I enlarge something.

I want to place a circle shaped outline border around the original image with a set border thickness and color and be able to crop/remove the portion of the image beyond the outline, changing it from a square/rectangle image to a circular image.
If I am not able to change the drawing to have a round outer border from square, how can I make the outer parts past the newly created circular outline transparent?

No matter what 1 single pixel brush i use this will happen... no matter which computer i use cs6 on and different copies of the installation. Anyway have any insight into this? frankly... it's somewhat limiting that i can't use the brush for stroking a shape if i need a pixel line and yet soft curves that a pencil won't get you.
I am not very good with photoshop, and if there was a brush tool setting to make it just like an actual paint brush.
