Photoshop :: CS6 Lags When Using Brushes
Oct 27, 2012
I'm using a MBP (Late 2011, i7, discrete ATI Radeon 6570m) with 16 Gigs of RAM, a 256GB SSD Samsung 830 and a Wacom Intuos5 tablet. My secondary screen is a Dell U2711.Ps is already updated to 13.0.1
Â
Everytime i use a brush tool (healing, cloning, etc.) the % of cpu usage goes up to 90-140, Temperature goes up to ~80 degrees, fans going to full power.
When i don't stop to use the brush, Ps is freezing for a few seconds (5-30).
Â
Mostly, when i switch to another app (Firefox, etc.) and back to Ps, i can use Ps again.

Brush lags in Photoshop CS6 with GPU acceleration. Brush performs better with GPU Acceleration OFF, than with it on. Nvidia GTX 470
Â
Latest nvidia drivers. Windows 7. 64bit
Â
Edit: Installed newer Wacom drivers 6.3.2w3 which seems to have brought CS6 back to CS5s performance level after a reboot. Although brushes do still lag, especially the art brushes. Still not thrilled with performance yet.
Â
Photoshops brushes are still faster with GPU accell off though.

Noticed that photoshop CS6 on Creative Cloud at least seems to lag when I try to move a layer around or a selection around with my mouse after I have used my tablet. So what Im trying to say is that I can move selections around with my mouse or with my tablet and they move fine but when I do anything with my tablet and the go back to my mouse thats where I get the lagging movement. If I then at that point try to move the selection with my tablet it doest lag around. As I try different things with my mouse after I have used my tablet nothing else seems to lag just moving the selection with my mouse. Any others having this issue or know what may be the cause?

So recently I bought a macbook pro retina 15' for mobility purposes and for the color quality. I've heard good things that come out of production on it to begin with but when I got my hands on photoshop cs6, nothing but brush lag ensues.
 Â
The issue often happens when I zoom in to do minor details or using a brush larger than 500 pixels. It's not productive to do a stroke and have the program take a while to recognize the stroke before it appears. I believe that being a Macbook Pro owner, I should have met the requirements. Also I do notice this problem occuring on other high-end non apple computers such as asus. I find it quite a joke and I do honestly believe it's on adobe's end. Even my old Hp pavillion runs photoshop cs5 just fine.

how I can get rid of the jitters and lags I am having with my Intuos 3 pen and tablet. The cursor is not moving smoothly and there is often a lag between moving the pen tool and the cursor moving in response (to produce a brushed line or an erased area). I have memory in CS3 set to 61% (of 3Gb ram in total). I am using a Matrox M9125 (512Mb memory) graphics card under Vista Ultimate 32Bit. I am not experiencing the same cursor lags and jitters in Corel Painter X.
I'm using the latest drivers for vga card and Wacom hardware.
I also have the Vista Pen and Tablet functions disabled.

Photoshop and Illustrator CS3 just stop working every five to ten minutes for periods of about 10 to 20 seconds. Photoshop palettes and windows all go blank if I click anywhere in the application space during these brownouts. Sometimes the entire system stops responding to the point all I can do is move the mouse around pointlessly.
After it does whatever it is doing the app suddenly snaps back to life and anything else I may have clicked in any application in the meantime instantly responds allsuddenlyatthesametime in a flurry of dialogs and actions. Often when Photoshop comes back the palettes have no titles and seem to have been corrupted and I have to restart the app.
It doesn't seem to matter what I'm doing though I'm not entirely sure about that. Seems that it happens most when I try to use the brush tool or apply changes to text, but that may just be because I use those tools more than others.

I embed a few raw files as smart objects when preparing pages for wedding albums. When I edit those smart objects (resize, move, etc) both my systems have 3 or 4 second lags with each change.

The more powerful system is:

Core 2 Quad @ 2.4GHz
4GB ram
Windows 8
HD7790 OC 1GB graphics board

I'm using Photoshop CS5 (v.12, the 12.4 update does not apply to the ME version I have) on a mac book pro running a 2.3 Ghz Intel core i5 and 4GB memory. Everything worked fine until I recently upgraded to Mountain Lion.
From that moment on it became virtually impossible to use Photoshop as every operation, including choosing a menu item, takes forever. Illustrator and Fireworks work fine. I tried turning the openGL mode to basic but nothing seems to work.

We just bought new Macbook Pro laptops last Friday and also got Adobe Photoshop CC and Adobe Illustrator CC. Everything works pretty fine, except moving layer content eg. images or fonts around is a bit behind, slow/laggy, without any apparent reason.
Â
This happens despite external screen connected or not. It also happens with or without power adapter connected. We have brand new Mac OS Mavericks and 16GB RAM so performance should not be a problem.

I finally gave in and applied the LT14 registry "fix" to correct the flashing icons, monster lags, etc...might of fixed those issues (not sure yet) but now when I tap the F8 key to toggle Ortho on/off it also toggles on the Grid (which I do not want). If I keep tapping the F8 key it cycles through turning Grid on/off and turning Ortho on/off.
F7 still works like it should, toggling the Grid on/off.

I am interested in grouping and sorting brushes according to size, shape, whatever.
Right now when I add a brush library, they just stack on top of one another.
For example let's say I have a round brush with a 10 diameter, then next to it a round brush with a 20 diameter. If I make a 15, it goes to the bottom of the list, and I have to scroll all around. How can I group them?
I suspect I would have to make my own brush library with my brushes how I want them, then save that and load it?

Im using Inventor 2014 SP1 on a HP Z620 with 2 CPU - 16GB Ram.
Graphic card is a AMD Firepro W7000 4GB.
When i am rotating a big assembly 500+ it doesnt lag that much, but when i have a sketch turned on at the same time, the graphic lags extremely when rotating.
I have tried all the recommended drivers and the newest drivers and nothing changes.
I tried different hardware settings in inventor (Performance, Compability, Quality) and there is no difference.
I also tried to change the graphic Card with a Nvidia GTX 660.
It rotates much better (smooth) in big Assy than my firepro but it is having the same issue when having a sketch turned on.

Whenever I place a copy or paste from the clipboard AutoCAD freezes for about 5 -8 seconds and is very annoying. Time is money people.  I know it's not a RAM issue. I don't have the problem with 2011 when I go back to it. What gives Autodesk? When is the next service pack due? This only happens with teh copy command

i have cc 7.2.1, and every basic operation i do on the timeline , moving clips, trimiming, scrubing on the timeline everything lags, its not fluid. When i do a simple scrubring on the timeline, the CTI takes sometime to get to the position i selected to do the playback.
Â
But the worst part is the trimming or moving clips, it takes ages before i get an image on the program monitor. If i move a clip into a middle of 2 clips it takes ages to see those two little privews images with timecode, to see where to put it. So is very hard to edit like this.
Â
Another odd thing is when in redering mode i select to use sofware only i dont have drop frames, when i chose cuda i have drop frames!!
Â
I´m editing h254 from a 5d and 7d on externa llaccie usb 3 , have the a macbookpro 16g i7, iris pro and nvidia 750m, and a external samsung, via DVI.

i just installed Vista 64bit, downloaded all drivers, installed brand new Photoshop CS4 Trial.
When opening it i get message"Adobe Photoshop CS4 now includes graphic card acceleratio, please visit your graphic card manufacturer and download the latest drivers" or something like that.
Well i have newest drivers i think, becouse i just recently downloaded drivers so i can play games like Crysis. So i am sure i got the latest drivers.

How do you rearrange the brushes in the brushes box?
I've seen they are arranged by name, so how do you rename the brushes since renaming the file name don't rename the brush.

I have over 200 brushes for Photoshop CS3 and I use a 42" computer monitor. When I go to my brushes I'm only able to see the brushes up to the letter S and the rest are off screen. Is there a way to get them to display without the obvious way of deleting some of them?

I can see brushes in Preset Viewer that Photoshop cant see. Preset Viewer is set to limit itself to .abr files, which of course is all that Photoshop sees when youre loading brushes, so . . . why can I see some .abr files in Preset Viewer that I cant load in Photoshop CS4 for Windows?

I have been using version 5 for years now and I’ve been looking into getting CS but the biggest thing that I’ve noticed is the brush control. I’ve been used to just selecting the opacity (like 10%) and using my stylist and going over the area and getting darker much like a traditional airbrush. I have played around with the flow and opacity but can’t get the look and the feel of v5. I don’t have all the time in the world to play around with it because it’s my friends computer, I just want to know if it can be done or if they have fazed that out with the newer versions.

I've seen so many people talking about brushes... can someone actually tell me what they do and show me what can be done with them? I have a fair knowledge about photoshop and I just want to advance my skills by finding out what other sort of stuff you can do with photoshop..

I lost my precise preferences for the brushes and all I have is a 1-3 pixel brush. After that it defaults to the icon. Our IT guys seem to have misplaced the original cd.
I've gone through the reloading of brushes, preferences and I've tried Adobe Studio exchange, but no luck. I desperately need be able to get the precise brush size preferences back.

How can I do this? I have a bunch of very nice brushes, with perfect settings that I would like to copy to my thumbdrive so I can use them anywhere I go. Where is the file that has my brushes? I thought it was in the Photoshop/presets/Brushes folder, but none of the .abr files there appear to have my brushes in them.

I miss 2 Brushes in PS 8:
1. A "wet brush" (PS7). it gave a look like painting with slime.
2. A brush that gets Thinner in the end of a stroke. Like the stroke of a pen / feather. Or does anyone know how to get this effect, maybe with another technique.
Did they cancel those strokes or am I to blind to find them?

Im working with Photoshop CS2 and although I have all the brushes that Ive downloaded put into the right folder (program files/adobe/adobe photoshop CS3/presets/brushes) it refuses to see them within the program.
When I installed them photoshop was closed, I even rebooted the computer just in case. I tried moving them into the "adobe photoshop only" folder within the "brushes" folder and it doesn't work.
I know these are more recent brushes so they cant be too out of date for this version.
