Using CS4 with OpenGL on and I am unable to transform a mask on a regular layer. When the mask has focus, the transform controls are simply not visible (even with "Show Transform Controls" checked). If I do a CTRL+T, the controls appear on the toolbar at the top but still no transform handles around the mask.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have been using photoshop for years now and never had this problem before, it just started today. Whenever I click on the "show transform controls" under the move tool, the whole photograph I am working on disappears and I am left with the gray background. When I click it off, the image returns.
View 13 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble with using my layer masks. I can use the masks that are hidden (shown with black screen) and apply them with the white brush, but I cant get white or shown masks to be taken off with the black brush. Sometimes, not always I have trouble adjusting the opacity of white masks. I was playing around with actions I downloaded and after applying three actions to a photo, elements froze on me. I read about trashing preferences, I dont know what that does or means but I tried to hit cntrol alt shift when photoshop was opening and nothing happened. When it first opens it shows I can install the new inspiration browser ( i dont know what that is either) thinking it was a required update I tried to update and it gave me an error message, something about the installer has been mis-configured.

Problem: Transform applied to Smart Object fails to transform an attached Smart Filters Mask.
I mean a Transform, including Free Transform, as found in the Edit menu. A simple move by the Move Tool is OK.
A workaround until this bug is squashed is to encapsulate the Smart Object + Smart Filters + Filter Mask inside another Smart Object and transform that.However, that will not be a satisfactory solution in some cases. If a filter has size parameter(s), e.g. Gaussian Blur radius, a scaling or warping/distorting transform applied after the filter will obviously differ from the filter applied after the transform.
In any case, the workaround is inconvenient to subsequent editing and experimenting with filters and masks.
I like the adjustment panel on HDR toning. Is there a way that I can just use those controls without HDR taking over and doing it thing. In other words I just want to open up and not have hdrt make its adjustment I want to do it my self because all of the controls are right there.

My image is still on the screen but everything else is gone. I cannot minimize since those buttons are gone. I right click or left click on the mouse and nothing happens. I cannot even shut down the computer since those controls are gone. It is necessary for me to turn off the computer using the off/on button. What I get on my monitor is the image that I was working on and a neutral background that covers the entire monitor.

How do I get my 3d controls to show up in photoshop extended cs6?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've been having this problem since the first Photoshop CS6 beta, across multiple different PCs. And the problem is this:
The new blur filters available in CS6 don't have any on-screen controls visible at all (the ones that let you adjust the position and strength and other parameters), like shown in the marketing videos and tutorials. I don't know if it's a Windows specific problem, but I've seen this problem on multiple PCs.
When using Photoshop CS6 in Windows (Vista 32bit with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.20Ghz and 4GB RAM), Lighting Effects doesn't show any on screen controls for brightness etc.

I have used an adjustment layer in CS5 and when it was first used I could adjust everything. Now most of the controls have grayed out and whilst I can slide the sliders I can not type figures in nor use the radio buttons! Why has it locked me out? It has happened on a few images and with both Color Balance and Hue and Saturation Layers.
The image above shows the problem with the top Color Balance layer where I can not select Shadows or Highlights, nor type in figures for the sliders BUT I can slide them and change the tick on Preserve Luminosity! The basic image being edited is an 8-bit RGB file.
Adding a new adjustment layer (Color Balance) on top of this one initially showed the same problem but after adding 3 more new adjustment layers suddenly everything came back to fully working again - even the original problem layer!
This problem keeps happening with some of my images. It is happening on all 3 of our Photoshop PC's, so it looks like a basic PS bug.
I downloaded a trial of Adobe Photoshop CC and when I started it up I noticed these dotted lines on the transformation control lines. I sure it's not a new feature because I did not see this in videos of people using Photoshop CC. My computer also meets all the requirements for the application and it runs really smoothly. This really bugs me because it glitches sometimes too.
Here are images of the problem:

CS5 EXtended / WIN7. I have two issues.
(1) Every time I open up a new project, I have been getting grid lines that pop up, then I have to go to VIEW, and unclick EXTRAS, or Control-H...EVERY time, which gets annoying. How can I Stop this from happening?
(2) another problem is even though my SHOW TRANSITION CONTROLS are clicked Enabled, they don't show up when I want to use them, SO NOW, I now have to click Control-T...How did that happened?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am using bridge CS5 (version 4.0.5.11) and working in camera raw. In the lens corrections tab in the manual control I have lost my chromatic Aberration controll, this is to say, it has disappeared. I now see under the manual tab I now see the transform controlls, below that I see lens vignetting. The chromatic aberration conrolls have disappeared, where have they gone and can I get them back and how do I do that?
View 5 Replies View RelatedSo, this is pretty much all I see:
I can't move or do anything with the light. It's just stuck! I've looked at other screens of people using lighting effects and there's (obviously) supposed to be some sort of on screen controls. And for some odd reason mine aren't showing up. I've been having this issue for days now and I'm not sure why it's not working. Also, I'm using Windows 7. In addition, my alignment buttons seem to always be greyed out, or "unclickable".
I have read several of the discussions about the curves adjustment flyout showing greyed out controls after use. This also happens on my levels adjustment flyout. On my CS6 curves adjustment flyout, the drag control and the edit points control are both showing up as active and at least it appears that the drag control is working properly. Is this problem also one that Adobe is working on?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI was trying to learn from this video about masking. It says it is CS5.
[URL]........
When I go to the layers there is no masks. When I go to the windows, no masks. A post said that it was now under properties, but when I go there, it says no properties.
So I cannot even get started. My idea was to take this image and replace the screening area with a green background, in a manner that I thought might work similar to the video. the quick mask selected the desired area well and then I could go no farther.
Running Photoshop CS. I have two jpegs one of which I need to drag a section of the photo across to the other one. This is applied as a layer but I want to dissolve the outer edges of the picture into the underlying jpeg.
I've tried feathering but it doesn't give me the shape I need, as I'm limited to circular or rectangular shape. The rubber tool doesn't really gradient the edges away enough, even on maximum softness. I think I really need to use a mask but for some reason when I press Quick Mask and colour inthe edges then press Q it just leaves a marquee round the shape but doesn't remove the edge.
When using the Smartbrush tool in Elements 11, I cannot get the slider controls to show on the right hand side of the workspace - the tutorial shows them and describes how to use them (easy!), but I can't get them to show.

View 9 Replies View RelatedThe same keys seem to be used to move the viewport camera, but the behavior of the viewport camera seems to have changed. For example, press Z to focus on an object, middle-drag the camera off to the side in one direction, and alt+middle-dragging used to just rotate the viewport camera around a new focus point. Now, it's almost like the viewport camera is getting swung around on a rope around the original focus point.
How can I change it back to the original way?
All of my other Adobe products allow me to pan ad scan and zoom using my fingers on the touch pad. Why does illustrator not? Or if it is supposed to, how do I turn those controls on?

I recently upgraded to CS6 (version 13.0.1 x64) on a Mac OS X 10.7.4, and my masks are acting wonky. When I add a mask to a layer and then use the brush tool (using black) to paint on the mask to remove the mask from a portion of my image, nothing happens. If I invert the mask so that it's all black and then paint on with a white brush, I can get the effect of the mask.
But then if I happen to use the brush on a part of the image that has already been painted (it is white on the mask), that part of the mask turns black even though I'm using a white-colored brush. Is there some sort of setting I need to change? What am I doing wrong?
In cs5 the masks panel was introduced to encourage the use of non-destructive lyre masks. It was a handy place to view all masks andcrevisitvforvrevision of refine mask command. It appears to be totally gone.
