Photoshop :: Disable Hand Toss In CS4 & Annoying...
Oct 26, 2008
Is there a way to disable the ever so annoying hand toss feature (that makes the canvas glide as you pan it)? Actually refering to it as a feature kind of makes me cringe as there's no practical benefit of it what so ever.
I also find the movement of the new GPU-accelerated marquee zoom kind of jerky. Instead of moving straight in, it seems to use some kind of compound movement that feels rather unsmooth. Am I the only one annoyed by this behaviour?
I have a problem with "new scroll feature" in Photoshop CS6 - I didn't find any discussion about that in whole internet (maybe I used bad keywords for the finding) How can I turn off this annoying horizontal scroll feature?
I over and over again do the same - by mistake scrolling horizontally instead vertically..
I need to make an transparent GIF of a sold banner that will go over object. Thing is when i save it as a GIF the edges are discolored to a whiteish light green. I've tried all different kinds of GIF settings but i get the same thing. It needs to be transparent..
I have so far made a vector shape with the shapes available and am trying to use the pen too to manipulated it. BUT for some reason when I try and drag a point I just get the curve handles but the point won't move, does anyone know what I could have accidently pressed to stop it behaving?
I have a modeled right hand part and a detail drawing of that right hand part with a pin that defines r.h from l.h. and I would like to save them as a left hand part then change the model by reversing the pin. How would I proceed with this task?
I'm just guns blazing in Photoshop CS6 and enjoying every feature of it, but I have this on issue that I think Adobe has overlooked.
In previous Photoshop when you create a shape and open the "Blending Options" window your shape would look like this (if you have the "shape" deselected in the layers palette.
Example 1. But now in Photoshop CS6 I don't have the option to do so, I'm stuck with this shape bounding border, and it's a real pain when doing website mockups or other things for that matter.
Example 2.: Example 3.: As you can see above if I wanted to add a 1 pixel inner shadow to work as a highlight, I can't see a proper preview of it. Unless I hit ok and deselect the shape.
how to get this problem resolved. everytime i use my type, when i click on my work area, a black dot appears on page before i begin to type. then no matter what font i use, there is a black line under all my type. how can i get just the black dot from appearing at first when i click, and that annoying line under all my type to dissappear! i'm veryy new to photoshop, and i have cs.
I'm tired of repeatedly seeing messages like this with no option to "Click Here if you don't want to receive this notification in the future." How do turn this one off?
I designed a text document in illustrator and it looks great...in illustrator. As soon as I export it to a PNG, an annoying outline around text appears.
Whenever a annotative dimension is selected, its text are displayed with virtually all possible scales simultaneously on the screen, blocking the view of other objects and make the screen all a mess. Have a look at the attached picture.
how to anchor the image down to the baseboard. I'm using a macbook pro and the image is constantly scrolling all over. This could have something to do with the two finger sensitivity of the touch pad. But this also comes into play when using the point to point (polygonal) lasso tool.
While going from point to point with the tool if I drift to the outer borders of my screen the image takes off in the opposite direction. This is the most annoying feature ever introduced to Photoshop.
Hit the spacebar cursor turns to hand and move the image. Is how I used to do it (and still can). Why add this auto scrolling? I'm tired of chasing after the image and constantly recentering it.
I've just found a copy of Photoshop cs4 at a price I might actually be able to afford. I'm a little worried that there might be a problem with the activation code though. Is anyone here using a second hand version of photoshop or has anyone had a problem reactivating a product. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It's still quite a lot of money to shell out for something that won't work.
i have recently upgraded my computer with a new mb, 8gb ram, clean install of vista 64 bit and cs4. after initial problems with screen lag i installed a new graphics card and all seems to be working fine. problem is using the hand tool. i was accustomed in cs3 to comparing two files side by side, let's say the same image with two different levels of sharpening. i was able to view both images at 100% and using the hand tool move each image independently. this made comparing particular areas of the images easy. in cs4 when i open two images and use the hand tool it moves both images at the same time.
i'm working on something that the hand tool is constantly selected? You know the white hand tool (H). If I try and select any other tool..I can't select it as the hand tool wont change
My cursor is showing the hand tool no matter what tool is selected. And the tools of course do not work then. PS restart does not help, I have to restart the PC (Vista 32 Ultimate).
I read about this problem many time in the web. Why isn`t there any solution? Even CS4 11.01 has this bug.
I'm a photoshop noob and I just purchased the CS3 version.
I've been experimenting with different texts and styles and everything was going fine until..
I must of hit something by mistake but every time I click on a new tool icon on the left hand side (like text or brush for example) it doesnt come up. When I mouse over my image all I get is the hand icon. Its like stuck on the hand icon or something. I've been trying to figure it out for the past 20-30 min.
Closing photoshop doesn't fix it either. I'm thinking I must of put myself in some special mode or something. The tool will be highlighted to the left..but like I said all that shows up when I mouse over is a little hand icon.
way to use the hand tool (or spacebar) even if the entire image is visible, like you could do in previous versions. One might wonder why you would want to pan if you can already see the entire image. This comes up when one of your layers is bigger than the main image. If you try to Transform the layer, but the transform handles are off the edge of the screen, you need the hand tool. Otherwise you have to zoom out even further to get at the handles.
I'm working along in PS CC (and this happened in CS6) and all is going fine. Then for some unknown reason the cursor changes to a hand and none of the tools will work. The only way to reset PS, is to restart the computer. Just restarting PS won't work.
My hand tool quit working. I looked in the forums. I've closed all browsers, restarted, rebooted, and removed the prefs.psp file. Not sure what to do now?
I have just purchased Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design and Web Premium. In Photoshop, the hand tool is not working. The hand icon shows but does not pan the open image.
Not sure how to really describe, other then i have recently (because of my playing with Photoshop) gotten back into some doodling, I have seen a few posts here and there of people doing hand sketches and transfering them to photoshop and "painting" them.
My big issue atm would be getting the outline darkened and cleaned up, I know my pictures are a bit "rough." Everytime i try to sharpen the outline it gives me a kinda black and white esque photo copier effect, I know i could probably skip this step and just ink the original and work from that, but is there a way it would work on here?
Here is an example of the pick i'm working with now, just a simple sketch i did in a couple free minutes the other day.
Have been working on some images over several days, when suddenly I can no longer change the tool. It seems locked on the hand tool even thought I haven't even used the hand tool and I don't know what its for...
Model posed, lying flat with hands above head. Good shot, but the visible hand is smashed into a pillow a bit-- but it's not too bad-- i'm thinking i can "rebuild" the missing palm/ wrist area, but i realize that this is a difficult and touchy area-- it could turn out really bad if i'm not careful. if i do well however, it might not be too noticeable, after all-- it's likely not going to be the subject of focus.
i'm looking for suggestions about what technique should be employed here, in order to get the most out of what's available, and also any ideas for how i might best "rebuild"
I start up the program (Photoshop CS) the hand tool is selected. No matter what I try I can not select any other tools at all. I've been trying to self teach myself this program for about 6 months and I've never chosen to use the hand tool at all, so I never intentionally set anything to make it default or anything like that.
In Photoshop CS3, the hand tool is the only tool I can now use: no matter what tool I click, the hand tool stays, nothing else happens. I tried restarting Photoshop and that didn't work.
The cursor displays the Hand on any image I open, regardless of what tool is selected. I can select other tools, change the pallette and the cursor is normal but I go back over to the image and it goes to the hand and I can't do anything.
I just got my new computer, which is much better then my last comp. It Had Vista Pre-installed un like my last computer that had XP. Photo shop runs perfectly fine until I use the Hand tool to move about the image. After that the Brushes lags a good half second behind where i make the mark. If I minimize then maximize photo shop the problem is gone. But i Use the hand tool ALL the time and minimizing and maximizing repeatedly is not a viable solution.
