Photoshop Elements :: 11 - Brush Pressure Option Not Working In Liquify Filter
Mar 15, 2014
I have PSE 11. When working with the Bloat or Pucker tools in the Liquify filter, the Brush Pressure option fades to gray; the only slider I can actually change is the Brush Size. The problem seems to have started about three weeks ago on my old laptop, which was due to be replaced in any case. I've since purchased a new laptop and have done a full install of PSE 11 on it from the original disks - but the problem still persists.
Since I have Photoshop installed CC works there the possibility to change the brush size by pressing the ctrl + alt key especially in the Liquify filter anymore. The same problem I have with the zoom function. In PS 6 I was able to press the alt + space key and while moving the mouse in the image in or out back. also that no longer works?
I just update to photoshop cs6 (Mac 13.0.4). Unfortunately, it's not possible anymore to resize brush in the liquify filter by "CTRL-Option-drag" like I did before in former CS6 version.
I use Photoshop CS4 every day all day, as of this morning my liquify filter has stopped working and I am pulling my hair out trying to figure out why. I have already checked the obvious; I am working on the correct layer and 'show image' is indeed checked. I have already trashed the preferences and restarted both Photoshop and the computer. I am attaching a screen shot below (just in case I am missing something). The tool itself is working (I can see the brush and move it), it is just not doing anything. Nothing has changed from yesterday, there are no new software updates to install, I just sat down to start work and it wasn't working.
Everytime I select the liquify command PS stops working, I've tried with different resolution pictures, with the 32 and 64 bit versions. If I use CS5 I have no problems.
I just upgraded to CS6 from Photoshop 7, which is a huge leap, I know. In PS7 I was able to vary my pen pressure simply by clicking the little box that said 'simulate pressure'. While CS6 has all the same steps, and even has the same little box, the simulate pressure doesn't work (I'm using the standard round brush).
I have gone to brush settings and activated shape dynamics, but that did absolutely nothing. I read a few other discussions that mentioned tablets. I don't have a tablet and don't really plan on getting one any time soon. I never needed one, and with my budget, I really can't afford one; hence why I jumped from PS7 to CS6, took a long time to save all the money.
I can use my simulate pressure option without getting a tablet.
The Liquify filter in PS 13.0 x64 does not work correctly. The Forward Warp, Magnify and Hand tools work okay, but the rest of them produce the same strange effect of a jumbled combination of swirl and black on white dot patterns. ending with a circular "transparent" pattern. I have just installed after removing 5.5 and using the Adobe Cleaning Tool. There were multiple errors in the installation log file, which I saved. I'm running Win 7 fully patched and up to date. I have a Toshiba Tecra wiith 6GB of RAM and an ATI Radeon DH 6450M GPU.
All three of the non-functioning tools begin with a swirly pattern quickly being jumbled by dots and checkerboard. If you hold the click for a few seconds it ends up looking like the above image.I use the liquify filter a lot and I don't want to waste a fortune by going back to CS55.
I have just purchased a Microsoft Surface Pro in anticipation of running Photoshop on it. I installed Photoshop and tried to do some sketches. I created a new file and started sketching. I Immediately felt like something was wrong. I checked my brush settings and saw the pressure sensitivity was not available. Everytine I tried to turn it on it was marked with an exclamation point.
Does Adobe is supporting the new pressure sensitive pen from microsoft, or if there is some sort of setting that I am missing? I have tried sketchbook pro 2011, and that works amazingly well with the pen.
Curser is dragging across the image and distorting even when not clicking on it. is the proxy image in the dialog box adjustable? the resolution is to hight. I have 16G of ram so thats not the problem. (it works ok on smaller low res images)
Just installed CS2 and was attempting a tutorial that requested me to use the liquify tool. I go to the filter menu and it is just not there? I have looked in finder and found it where it should be but it fails to display on my screen!
Liquify as a Smart Filter is definitively a long waited feature but I found an issue with it. I made smart object from a layer, applied Liquify, next I change the document ratio with Crop tool...You see, completely different pixels are liquified now. Dissapointing I've reported the issue already.
When I used to use the liquify filter, I was able to see each move/drag as I made it. Now it doesn't show any change until I click 'OK' and only then can I see the result of each 'drag'... So I am sort of having to guess, more or less, where the section I am altering/dragging will end up... Very difficult.
I have had a pen pressure tablet for some time now. I have just bought a new PC and even though the tablet is installed and works okay, it is not registering the pressure sensitive function in PS. In the brush menu, under shape dynamics, where the drill down box for selecting the pen pressure option, there is a little yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in it ( it's actually grey but turns yellow when you mouse over it).
Do I have to change some settings in the preferences or 'load' the tablet into PS ? I didn't have to on the last machine; it was "plug and play".
I updated my PS to 13.03. I saw an Adobe video saying now Liquify Tool can have a smart filter so I want to give it a try. I couldn't get my Smart Filter working for Liquify Tool.
I converted my RGB image to Smart Filter under Filter menu. I then tried to choose Liquify Tool but this option is disabled. Is my version 13.03 still not up-to-dated.
When working in the Liquify filter, my image turns blue and white. See screen capture. I never had this problem in previous versions of Photoshop, before CS6. Is there a way to view the image itself instead of the blue silhouette?
The freeze tool is not pictured on the left with the other tools. I can access freeze by pressing the "F" key, but there is no way to unfreeze since that tool is missing as well. Only seven tools are seen now.
I have subscribed to CC and smart filter support for blur and liquify are not working. I have first deactivated and reactivated PS CS6 extended and then tried uninstalling and reinstalling from my CC account. Neither method worked.
