Photoshop Elements :: Change The Color Of The Work Area?
May 25, 2013
Is it possible to change the color of the work area, in PhotoShop Elements 10, from dark grey to light grey. And....maybe do a contrasting Font color for the Toolbar ?
Been working with PSE11 for a few months. Yesterday it developed a problem. I can no longer click on the layer in the main work area but have to go to the layer panel to select it. What do I need to do to change this back to where it works like it should??
I recently upgraded from PSE9 to PSE12. I've noticed that once I'm deep into a many layered project that I can't click on a specific layer in the work area but need to click on the layer I want to work on in the layers palette. Is this something new in PSE12 or do I need to change something in Preferences?
I upgraded to elements 11, and am having a great deal of difficulty seeing the icons, with the 3 different colors of gray and light blue icons.it is all running together and taking a long time to find things. PSE9 did not have this issue. I was able to change the background area only.can we custom the colors, or is their a app that will let us.
Is there a way to change color of an area and have instant update while I'm still in the color picker dialogue?

I need to paint my house and I want to color the house in Photoshop first to test the color scheme. Currently I set it up so the house is first turned into gray scale, then a color layer is multiply or soft light onto the house to "paint" the house while retaining features of the house. There are several such color layers, each with a layer mask for the walls, the trims, and the garage door.
When I want to change the color of, say the walls, I select that layer and fill it with a new color. But I don't see the new color until I exited the color picker and the fill dialogues. Is there a more interactive way to change color?

I find it very difficult to read the text captions on the black face of the worktop. How can you change or customize to something that's easier on the eyes? I have managed to change the workspace panel color but can't figure out how to change that really difficult black interface. I am using elements 9 having upgraded from 5 where the workspace was pleasantly light grey.
I have Elements 7. I've been using it for a couple of years and know my way around from playing with it but am certainly no expert. I am a jewelry designer with a small home web based business. I offer designs in both silver and gold and wanted to know if I can just change the color of a piece from silver to gold in elements. It's a huge amout of time and money remaking every piece in both metals--I am on a shoestring budget so this is a big deal. (I am attaching a photo as an exaple of what I'd need to convert below)
When I open an image in 'edit', the reds become much more saturated than when it was viewed in the organizer. The amount of red saturation is abnormal and the photo remains this way afterwards, even when viewed in the organizer or opened with other software. Why is this happening and how do I stop this from happening?
What is the proper way to change the color of a social media icon like this one. I have no trouble making a selection, but I'm embarassed to say that I don't know what to do after that. I've tried adjusting the hue/saturation, but important detail is lost, and (for example) if I was trying to make the image #ff0000 red, it wouldn't really be true in color with a hue/saturation adjustment. I know this image is not the best quality, but something tells me that I need to make and selection, then create a new layer.. but as a newbie I'm stumped. Oh, that is - a newbie still using Elements 8.
I cannot see my photo in my display/work area when I open one, what could be causing this? It displays that a photo is open in my layers panel, but I can see nothing on my screen.
