Is there any way to create an action or keyboard shortcut to set the Crop tool to the front window size in Photoshop CS6? I find that I use that several times a day. I got used to it being the top choice in the Crop tool presets menu.
View 3 RepliesIs there any way to create a keyboard shortcut to put focus on the image window? I see how to create shortcuts to select every window except the image window, and it if I could just select the image window with a keyboard shortcut, GIMP would be much easier for me to use.
Also is there a way to create a keyboard shortcut to toggle the visibility of a layer?
Vista 64bit / Photoshop CS4 Friends - I'm struggling to create an action that will insert a length and width size (3840 x 2160) in the crop dimensions? Simply, I go through the steps to create the action and nothing happens when I try it.

Â
I ALREADY KNOW you can use the "[" and "]" to change the size of the spot removal circle. BUT, I'm trying to get LR to work as much like Photoshop as possible 'cause the inconsistencies on small things is a surprisingly large hit to productivity.....
Â
In PS I can change the size of the clone or heal using Alt and the mouse. Change both size AND opacity.
Â
Is this buried somewhere in LR? If not, is there a way for me to define this command in the translatedstrings file?
I'd like to reassign "command=option-shoft-g" to an action I have created that will speed up my workflow tremendously. All my function keys are allocated already.

But the issue is when you select the crop tool and enter a custom constraint and crop
Â
The image size is sometimes a full 2 inches off of what you set as a crop?! I havn't run into this before
[I do know you can use the drop down box and use {size and resolution} but I want to know why it doesnt work under custom and unconstrained]
Is it possible to create a keyboard shortcut to delete a layer from the layer's palette?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been googling this but can't seem to work out a) if it's possible and b) how to do it.
I have around 200 images of varying sizes that I want to get to a 75 px sq thumbnail. I can make an action resize and save for web but the crop tool is difficult. Could I somehow get the crop tool to start at the top left of each image and restrain the sq by the right side of the image to be cropped?
Getting a keyboard short cut to this (changing the crop tool from landscape to portrait and back).
It's the only tool change in my workflow that I have to use a mouse for and it really slows me down as I'm changing it all the time - but for the life of me I can't find a way to create a keyboard shortcut!
How to programmatically find the key assignment for a tool?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have several thousand images to process. All of them end up being different sizes by the time the different editing steps have been performed.
Is it possible to setup an action that will crop the image 500x500, finding the center of the image prior to the cropping?
So, I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Adobe user who is somewhat new to the Corel world. In CD12, I was able to successfully create a workspace and workflow that mimiced AI. In CDX4, I've run into a snag assigning the "v" key to the Pick Tool. I get a msg. in the dialog box that describes it being already assigned to a nebulous "tool modifier". Because of this, I am unable to re-assign "v" to the pick tool.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have images of varying sizes that I need to all be cropped to a specific aspect ratio in the center of the image and extending either to the side edges or the top and bottom depending on using the maximum portion of the image. How do you set up an action to do this.
Â
If I were to do this by hand, I would use the rectangle marquee, change to fixed ratio, and drag from one edge to the other. They move the selection to the center (as best I could) . Then do Image<Crop?
Â
But I need to automate this process and have have it exactly positioned in the center. Can this be automated in an action? If so, how?
Â
FYI, I have CS5 (and CS6). I am comfortable using the image processor. So as long as I have an action set up, I can process all of my images using the image processor. I also have lightroom 4 if there is some way to do it there.
Is there a way to create a shortcut for mouse left-click button on the keyboard?
View 8 Replies View Related how to create an action or script that could take all images in a folder and crop them to an aspect ratio of 16:9 and then resize them to 640x360?
I can't just change the pixels to 640x360 because that would distort the images as the current aspect ratios are not 16:9.
Is there a keyboard shortcut to zoom the image area to the image size. Kind of like the shortcut ctrl + 0 but the reverse.
View 6 Replies View RelatedAs a pro, I crop all my photos.I normally use the forward arrow to move through each image, but with the crop tool the forward arrow doesn't work for advancing to the next frame.It only adjusts the crop.This is extremely frustrating for me as it slows down my workflow.

Is there a one key shortcut, within the Crop Tool -- that permits us to move forward from frame to frame?I wish the forward key worked for this within the crop tool!

Is there an easy answer or a way to format something in Lightroom -- so I can have a one-key method to advance frames within the Crop tool?
Is there a way to add a keyboard shortcut or marking menu shortcut for visibility? It would be really convenient to be able to shift-click several objects and toggle the visibility of them.

The last time I used PS was about two weeks (it's summer) and I had the marquee size set to 2.18x2.18 inches. I just changed it to 2.15x4.35 inches. When I click on the image, which is about 2.25x4.45 inches, it selects an area 2.18x2.18 inches. The dimensions in the boxes are 2.15 and 4.35 inches. Feather is 0 pixels.
Just tried to automate a batch and resize, and then save for web all of the pictures - it didn't work the way I wanted (probably recorded something wrong). But When I tried to rerecord the action - it became impossible to change size of the pictures. I already restarted my computer, but the function of size changing still isn't working.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a problem with cs6 crop tool, well i want to create an a4 210 x 297 mm 8.3 x 11.7 preset. Well i add 210 on the width and 297 height

Now the problem , on the cs3 i was used to clickin width/heught space , right mouse click and set millimeter and save the preset. On the cs6 the right click doesn't call a pop up menu where i can select pixel, incs,cm,mm...
I have a little problem with the cropping tool in the new CS6 version.
In CS5 I had the oppotunity to choose "Front image" and the crop tool would copy the dimensions from the chosen image.
Now I made a mistake and cropped a picture with the wrong dimensions. Ususally I choose "original ratio", but this time I forgot. Then normally in CS5 I just choose one of the other pictures in my workspace (with the original dimensions) and hit the "front image" button, and then I got back the the picture I cropped in the wrong dimenions, and now I could easily crop it with the right dimensions.
I found another discussion in the forum that answered exactly this question, and it said "Try pressing 'R' in crop mode. It will open Crop Image Size & Resolution window, where you can choose Source: Custom, Front Image, etc."
But when I press "R" in the crop mode nothing like that comes up. Instead the opportunity to rotate comes up... :-( Not what I was looking for.
What to do? I work on a PC.
while looking through certain tutorials on the new crop system i came across many that referenced the above mentioned size and resolution option in the access ratio drop down menu. They all mention a dialog box which then appears which looks really useful, however my version doesn't have this option.
View 10 Replies View RelatedIn the old days, one could just use the crop tool and, while drawing crop lines, check the perspective box if you found that you needed to change the perspective. With CS6 if you start with the crop tool, and find you want to change the perspective, you have to change tools to the new perspective crop tool. In the process, you have to tell the newly opened dialog box that you don't want to crop, to get to the perspective tool, which now has reset to its defaults. You've lost your cropping and you have to start over.
