Photoshop :: CS6 - Any Way To Lock Interface On Monitor
Nov 13, 2013
I am using the application frame in CS6 in a MAC environment (OSX 10.7). The interface tends to move around on the monitor getting lodged up under the OS menu bar.
Is there a way to lock the interface on the monitor like it its done on a Windows 7 OS?
could come up with a "Lock grid to second monitor" option? I get a little peved when i'm performing some task and the grid jumps up on the main monitor. the adjustment controls are all on the main, so it goes to reason that the photo being edited should be locked the the main, and the grid be locked to the second monitor, or at least that there should be options like this. I'm using LR3.6.I don't see anything indicating that LR4 has any such option.
we cannot afford giant size monitors. An average AEC firm would have a 23 inch monitor or 21 inches. Now almost all the monitors are 16:9. So already the height of the monitor is reduced when compared to the 4:3 monitor.With the Ribbon Interface, the height of the drawing space becomes even less. Of course the ribbon can be minimized etc. but it is a nuisance revoking it and minimizing again. the 2008 version IMHO had a better interface with dashboards which occupied the vertical space on the right side. This way the height of the drawing space is not affected. It used to be a good interface - why change this into Ribbon mimicking MS Office for a CAD program?
I know that you could still have the Classic interface - but you lose the convenience of the ribbon. Frankly, I am a "command line only" person. But I would like to get used to the Ribbon also. Only at this point of time it started to irritate me the small height of the drawing space.
By very huge monitors? or may be you are using highly advanced models where you have a choice for a 4:3 format? I am struggling. I would like to use AutoCAD the way the rest of the world uses - though I am very fast in command line and know by heart most of the commands & shortcut keys. Sometimes i work in FullScreen mode.
is it possible to lock grid view to let's say the left (low grade) monitor and loupe (or any other view) to he right hi quality monitor without automatically switch the mode on the left when switching the view on the right monitor?
Why can't I drop a clip in the Program Monitor from the Source Monitor in Premiere? When I try to move a clip from the Source to the Program Monitor, a hand displays with the "circle with a line through it" symbol.
When I toggle the interface on/off it causes missing menu toolbar items and icons until I exit and restart Photoshop CS4. I know this can happen if problem filters are installed. So I have the latest Alien Skin filters installed and have already followed their AutoLayer2.8li file updates to resolve Windows Photoshop CS4 issues. I also have Luxology imageSynth 2.0 filter installed. So since all my filters are updated to CS4 compatible versions, I shouldn't have this problem but yet it occurs. I'm using WinXP SP2, 4 GB RAM, GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 with newest 185.85 driver. I have 3D canvas rotation turned on.
The interface for PS CS4 is missing its bar at the bottom and the Windows Task Bar is no longer visible. Can someone please tell me how to return the interface to its default condition?
I just recently upgraded from CS2 to CS4 and am finding it changed enough that it's slowing me down. I have a couple questions I hope someone can answer.
What is bothering me the most is that when I left click over an image I no longer can duplicate it, or change its size. I'm stuck with going to the menus and that takes longer than what I'm used to.
I've also been unable to figure out how to split the properties panels that now want to form two columns instead of one, and I haven't figured out how to break any given panel up and use only the part I want.
In CS5 I have the interface set up so that the windows dock but when there are no windows open you can see the desktop.  In CS6 there is this big ugly black panel on show all the time Have tried to compare the setting but cannot see any options that are fundermentally different.  Can I remove this background and if so how to do this.
Everything is in the title,  When I select the eydropper and I drag it outside Photoshop to sample a color of an image (in another window) everything seem to "move" in photoshop until I reach that image. When I say move it's the view that's moving not the layers etc.  How to make photoshop "view" stand still while i'm dragging the eyedropper out ?
we discovered a potential bug or issue in photoshop:under daily working conditions, 8h per day, during the last months/year i can observe the following behavior:suddenly, at any action, the photoshop interface (all palettes, windows, everything) freezes and doesnt react on any mouse or button command. can wait for minutes, nothing happens.  found workaround: switch to finder by clicking with mouse pointer into the finder desktop,and switch back to photoshop > interface is back and reacts again, everythings fine. condition of bug: very annoying but can live with it so far through my workaround frequenzy: several times a day (up to 20 or 30 times per day)  - reproduceable on mac osx 10.7 + 10.8 + 10.9 - reproduceable with photoshop cs6 and cc - reproduceable on 3 different macs at 2 different working places so far - mac pro 2006, mac pro 2012, imac late 2013 with each mac 48GB RAM or at least 32GB RAM (imac) - reproduceable with 8 bit and 16 bit files, .psd and .psb
I just installed the trial version of Photoshop CC and it installed the Italian version (same as my OS language) for the PS interface. Is there a resource to download and install the English version for the interface and all menus? I really don't feel good using it in Italian (all tutorials allover the web are made on PS in English).
photoshop cs6 - when I use the "save to web" feature and hit "save" when I'm ready to export, I go to copy and paste a name of a file to "Save As"Â and instead of it pasting there it ends up pasting where I last had my cursor on the "save to web" interface instead
In CS3, my workhorse editor until recently, when I double clicked an adjustment layer it opened up the initial settings window. There I was able to tab browse through the variables, make whatever adjustments I wanted, hit enter, and live happily ever after. I haven't been able to figure out how do do this in CS6, which has the 'properties' panel for making changes to adjustment layer settings. Â The question: Can CS6 be set to behave like CS3 in this respect?
This is how my Photoshop CS6 (64-bit) looks  This is my 'Preferences' window, as you see the text is missing and it just generally looks weird as crap. That's the same with all the windows etc.  Then I added my old fonts because I was setting up this new PC (1k+ fonts) and then I got this problem. already tried re-installing Photoshop several times, deleting configs and restarting my computer but nothing seems to work and the problem persists...
When I open "Save for Web" the normal grey interface is black, which means all of the dark text / settings are unreadable (see attached). I didn't change any settings before it started doing this, and I've reinstalled PS and it didn't fix it. I'm trying it with small photos and have more than enough RAM allocated to PS, so I've run out of things to try.Â
I have for a long time been an advocate for the darker interface, using it mainly in After Effects. So it's great that the CS6 apps have taken this to other apps in the Suite. However Save for Web has been missed out it seems. Anyone else think this should be able to be darkened like the rest of the PS interface?
I want to make a nice interface (menu) for my website in photoshop. Once I create the image, how do I make it "editable" in html? Is there a way to achieve this with slices? I'm sorry if you don't really understand what I am saying...let me know if I need to be more specific.
i have a interface i want to use on my website, it has 4 rollovers on it, i created the rollovers/interface with ps 7/image ready, when i try to upload it to my website it only shows my slices and no images, i have tried it by typing the html code image ready made into the webpage but still same effect, slices with no images or rollovers.
Photoshop is THE ONLY application that's missing the sweet slider to darken/brighten the user interface. I just discovered that even Illustrator CS4 has this ability, Premiere does, After FX does, so, what's the point? Why can't I darken Photoshop a bit? I think it's a bit more crucial to darken the UI in Photoshop than it is in Illustrator, as you're more likely to perform very sensitive color corrections in Photoshop and anything bright stands in your way,
How can I set my interface to stay the same as one time the "save for web" panel shows the 4 images in a square, then the next time it shows in 4 vertical strips and then other times is shows up in horizontal strips?
