Jan 3, 2008

The filters are present in my plug-in folder, and I even copied the dimmed ones over from my CS2 installation CD. The filters are dimmed out no matter what I do. I really need my 3D Transform filter to work,

Photoshop Elements :: Edit Functions Are Dimmed / Greyed Out

Oct 24, 2012

I recently installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 on my MacBook Pro.  I attempted to select, then edit a photo that I created a while ago.  All of the Edit Functions were dimmed. I confirmed that the photo was set with RGB color mode, and it is in Full/Edit mode. The primary functions that I attempted to use were Copy & Paste. I opened the same file on my iMac and it worked just fine. How I can make the Edit Functions work on my MacBook Pro?

Photoshop :: CS5 / Select -> Modify -> Contract Grayed Out

Jun 6, 2012

Mac OSX 10.7
PS CS5
 
The problem is that after using my select all, or using the marquee tool (tried both ways) to draw the selection my contract option is still grayed out it (like most everyone else has said). Only difference is, it was WORKING fine 30 min ago, I've used it many times while working on numerous documents and now all of the sudden it wont work on anything. I havn't made any changes to any prefs, but maybe I hit a hotkey and locked something? I remember when my define pattern was grayed out, I read a post where I clicked one simple option and voila it was back to normal...something with a spacebar shortcut I think?

Photoshop :: Can't Contract Selection If Entire Canvas Is Selected

May 31, 2012

Where there's an active selection over the entire canvas you are unable to Contract your slection.
 
Doesn't matter how you select the whole canvas - whether a Select > All, or simply by dragging over everything.
 
This has been an issue in PS since I can remember. Not sure if CS6 retains the issue. I'm guessing YES.

Photoshop :: Auto Colour/contract, My Image Goes White

May 24, 2006

I have Photoshop V7. When I open an image, then go to the image toolbar - 'adjustments' - auto colour/contract, my image goes white. Needless to say I have tried to correct this without success. I tried uninstalling the program and re-installed it but I still have the same problem.

Lightroom :: Some Images Dimmed In Grid View?

Jun 25, 2012

Today I was browsing through my images library and I noticed that some of the images are dimmed.  By dimmed, I mean that they appear desaturated... as though LR4 is trying to tell me something about the image... but I don't know what.
 
If I click on the image I can edit it.  It appears normal when it is the "current image" (bright colors again).  But as soon as I make another image the "current image" the other image goes back to the dimmed look.
 
This is only true for some images.

Illustrator :: Majority Of The Options Under File Menu Are Greyed Out Or Dimmed?

Nov 10, 2013

I am on a MAC OS X 10.8.5.  I am running Illustrator CC 17.0.0  I started a new document and created my work.  I could not save as or export.  There are times when the SAVE button is also greyed out.  (see screenshot). I was fortunate there was a script that saves the files as a PDF under SCRIPTS.  It does not matter if I start  a new file or open an old one. I do not have file menu choices.  I checked for updates and it states I am current.

Illustrator :: How To Isolate One Side Or The Other To Expand / Contract

Mar 15, 2014

I love the width tool but when I try to use it on a custom brush I am unable to isolate one side or the other to expand/contract. I'm assuming the behavior should be the same as when used on a basic stroke. Is this a bug?

Illustrator :: Contract A Path With Offset - Entering A Negative Number?

Jun 22, 2013

I have a path that turned out to be a litt ethicker than it needs to be.
 
I see that I can expand a path with Offset Path. I have read online that you can contract a path by entering a negative number, but when I try that, it ignores the minus sign and expends the path instead.
 
Is there some other way to contract the path?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Extend And Contract From A Work Plane While Editing A Solid

Aug 1, 2013

How to create a work plane, say, in the middle of solid while editing, to use the extend and contract commands using IV2014?  I'd like to avoid using Fusion as an option if possible.  This should really be an easy thing to pull off as many STLs are now available for 3D printing but simply need a quick stretch here and there to print accurately.

Photoshop :: No "CONTRACT" Option?

Jul 26, 2004

is there any reason why if I use SELECT ALL, that when I goto SELECT, MODIFY, everything except BORDER is grayed out?

Using PS:CS on WinXP Pro. For the time being, I have to use the ARROW KEYS to move off the document border, and then CONTRACT (now available) and then use the ARROW KEYS to move it back where I want...

Jun 20, 2013

What does it mean when Illustrator v.15.1.0 ceases to contract a shape using offset paths and will only expand a shape? Seems like only yesterday I could render both ways. Wait a minute, it was only yesterday! Why would it suddenly stop funtioning?

Photoshop :: Error: Cannot Initiate Photoshop Because Photoshop Cannot Create Any More Windows

Nov 2, 2008

Version: Photoshop CS (1)

Computer: Pentium 2.4 gHz dual core

4 Gigs Ram

Nvidia 7950 video card Win XP Home

I started to get this strange error with my Photoshop when making a new document in Photoshop and got the following error: "cannot initiate Photoshop because Photoshop cannot create any more windows".

I thought the easiest thing to do would be to reinstall (Photoshop needs reinstalling extremely often unfortunately), but now when I try and open the program it just give an alert beep and closes back up. Even though I rarely use ImageReady, I opened that up to check and it does the same behavior.

Photoshop :: 'save To Web' From Photoshop To Image Ready Changes Original's Color Before Optimizin

May 28, 2004

Can anyone tell me what color settings I need to set in photoshop in order to avoid this from happening? It only happens once in a while and I don't know what I've done to fix it or screw it up. What happens is that when I'm in photoshop and I do a "save for web" my document jumps to image ready and when viewing '2 up' for optimization purposes and comparison, I realize that the original view is actually duller in color and does not look like the original in photoshop. The blacks are definitely not as black.

Photoshop :: Can Photoshop CS Give Smooth Lines To Older MacPaint Clip Art?

Jun 7, 2004

when I got my first Macintosh IICX and all of my MacPaint clip art. I don't want to get rid of the clip art because since I'm still using a black ink printer and not upgrading to a color one, the clip art looks nice in newsletters and the like.

Up until this time I had been using SuperPaint which had the New Superbits editing plug-in to refine the pictures so they had the smoother and cleaner lines instead of looking jagged. With my new computer and printer, I'm also getting Photoshop CS packaged with Adobe Creative Suite Premium, which I have never used before. Since I have not received my order yet, I was wondering if anyone could tell me whether Photoshop has the capability of improving the older MacPaint clip art like SuperPaint did with the New SuperBits editing plug-in. Over the past two days, I have been trying like crazy to back-up my pictures with SuperPaint and then re-saving them with Graphic Converter. It's been so incredibly slow that I thought I would go ahead and ask you, the experts, if Photoshop can also improve the quality of my older MacPaint clip art or if I should continue to back-up my clip art like I have been doing.

Photoshop :: Error :: 'Could Not Complete Your Request Because Photoshop Does Not Recognise This Type Of File'

Jun 17, 2008

I have just got back from the Elbow gig and pulled the images off the card. They load up in Bridge but don't have actual picture thumbnails. They are named correctly, ie: IMG_3483.CR2 but they won't open!? Error message says 'Could not complete your request because Photoshop does not recognise this type of file'

I could see them on the back of the camera.

mac users... i did a software update the other day and I noticed that there was an update for ACR. Could it have been something to do with that? And why can't I find ACR in my Applications?

Photoshop :: Adobe Photoshop Hacking For Working Special Characters?

Oct 30, 2012

of Adobe Photoshop v6.0.1 (quite old, I know, but it do all I want and on my old HW I did not plan/want to use any more recent version, because they are HUGE and with just a little preferences trick, I did not need to reinstall my PS - ever ), yet as Czech user, I need my software to type some special characters as well. These are looking like this:
 
[URL]...

Now the only problem is, that some of them PS just refuse to type. Seven small and seven caps are just wrong. See the line "for PS:"...
 
I battled the problem even by editing the fonts itsels, because that seems to work with Adobe Illustrator, yet this also cause the edited fonts to be useless in another programs. So I looked deeply and in the Adobe settings in directory Fonts / Reqrd are directory CMaps and perhaps editing the character map used will be better and usable solution? how to do it or even determine with file from the 96 files in the CMaps directory are right now used by Adobe Photoshop?

Photoshop :: Photoshop Soft Edge Tool Feature Missing

Mar 21, 2007

the soft edge feature of the eraser and the brush no longer work. I can go into the pallet and choose a soft edge eraser or brush, but it comes up hard edge. When I try to use the marquee box with a feather to get a soft edge, I again get a hard edge. I've used this technique a lot, so I think I'm doing the method properly. I have removed the preference files a number of times and have trashed the old Photoshop and reinstalled Photoshop 3 or 4 times,

Photoshop :: Reset Settings On Softwares Such As Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign, Etc?

Dec 29, 2008

I am working on someone elses computer and the Software settings are different. The old owner does not use this computer anymore. The swatches are set and I would like it to function how it usually does, etc. I mean, even the transparent swatch on the tool bar is not there anymore, so when I use the pen path tool, I get these white and black fills which makes it difficult for me to see the path I am meant to be following.

How do I reset Photoshop so that I can customise it the way I want it? Reinstalling the softwares is not an option.

I would like to reset Illustrator, Indesign, Dreamweaver, etc.
