Photoshop :: Find To Edit Objects Is Through Edit - Free Transform
Feb 27, 2012
I am just starting out with the Photoshop CS5 trial. I am trying to apply a triangular pattern to a thin rectangular shape. I used the custom shape tool>triangle, then defined the pattern successfully.However, when I apply the pattern it partially repeats it along the vertical as well as the horizontal axis. Please see attached screenshot:
Â
I only want it to repeat horizontally, what am I doing wrong?
Â
Also, I am Fireworks CS5 user and am really missing the properties inspector panel which allows you to quickly and esily edit sizes of objects, is there a Photoshop equivalent of this?........at the moment the only way I can find to edit objects is through Edit>Free Transform.

I would like to do an edit / free transform to resize a layer in my image. I want to do this WHILE LOOKING AT a round path that I have created.
No problem in photoshop 7 , just turn on the path, select the image layer that I want to resize, edit/free transform and I can shrink the image while looking at the circular path to see how the image fits within the path.

When I try to scale down a Smart Object, by using the Free Transform tool, I get over-sharped edges. Mind you when I do the same on a raster layer I can overcome it since there is an option box where I can choose interpolation method.

I am trying to access the edit original (edit with) option to edit a photo that has not been edited yet. I right click and go through the edit menu and does not appear or is not available? Would I have to reopen it manual in photoshop or is there a way around this to access that setting? it sometimes does not appear on my already edited photos.
I would prefer not to open each photo again, as some files i do not have and were imported into the document with another computer.

I've been experiencing this a lot more lately, and I've yet to find the one discerning aspect of my project that keeps the EDIT > TRANSFORM option from being usable.
Often I'll make a selection with the LASSO or SELECTION tool, it'll be on a layer where the selection encompasses an object (that is not vector), and it's not a selection of the entire canvas (like a CTRL + A). I'll goto EDIT and notice that TRANSFORM is greyed out. The image is in RGB mode, and I'll deselect, make the selection again and STILL not be able to select it.
Are there other things which can prevent that option from being enabled that I'm not thinking of? The layer is not locked and it isn't the background either.
Oh, also, without making a new thread, is it possible to move an anchor while you're drawing with the PEN tool? I thought you could hold SPACEBAR to move it before you released the mouse click, but I just end up having to use the SUBSELECT tool to move the anchors after it's drawn.

My digital camera has a tendency to distort as the image nears the outside of the frame. Is there a photoshop function that can correct this? I have tried the Transform functions (skew, distort, etc), and correcting half of the image is easy by dragging the corner grips away from the center to stretch the image, but, when I go to the opposite end of each given side, the distortion returns. The problem is the grip at the midpoint on each side moves with the rest of the side when using this feature. Is there a transform feature or other command that does something similar, but the midpoint grips stay stationary, basically taking the rectangular shape of the image and making it into an hourglass or four pointed star?

I am trying to design a dvd sleeve using only photoshop. I have several photos on several layers that need to be sized the same and I have been using the info/navigator tool as a guide. I notice that after transforming the scale my photo loses sharpness and when I enlarge it is pixelated. I must be losing pixels/information when I transform the scale of the photos- the more I transform, the more I lose detail.

I don't have this! I've been following some tutorials and the one's that i like all have this step in them. Prob is that when i go to try it warp is not there. I'm not sure if maybe it's a plug in.

The problem I am having is that every single file I open looks like this. Once I click transform (which I have to) the layer no longer allows me to click and edit the layer. I like to re-size my images in relation to the multiple images I place on a document. My previous version of photoshop did not create a transform box with each new file. How can I adjust photoshop so that it doesn't do this. I am using CS5 on a PC.

Is there a function, script or way to use the type-in transform tool in the unwrap edit window? I know there was a script (Unwrap Tools 1.6) a few years ago I used with 2009 but you had to overwrite max's default unwrap edit window, and I don't want to do that. I'm using 2012 design now
Here's a screenshot of "Unwrap Tools 1.6"

I'm creating a flow chart/decision tree. I am animating the position of a diagram on the stage when a user selects yes or no in answer to a series of questions.
Â
I've split up each diagram movement on the stage timeline as labels. I've staggered these transforms as keyframes on the same layer/track. The issue I'm having is when I manipulate the position of my diagram by moving it on the stage it affects adjacent transforms. I have my transforms seperated with a 1/10 second gap becuase I thought this would split the timeline up but it appears not!
While I can edit the transforms manually by typing in xy co-ordinates it would be ten times faster to move the diagram on the stage instead and not overwrite adjacent transforms.
Â
How do I restrict the transform to the two keyframe points I am concerned with?

When I try to edit smart objects via right-click>>edit contents (or double-click on the smart oject layer icon for that matter) this happens:
A.) if I disable [preferences>>file handling>>prefer ACR for JPEG files], PS calculates some seconds with intense HDD activity and then nothing happens visually, no window opens-up for editing, but the history log has the usual new entry "edit contents". Repeated tries result in repeated "edit contents" logs, but no visual changes.
[[In one instance the raster grahpic encapsulated into the smart object got enlarged by 200%-300%. But again, no window opened up for editing. I hit "edit contents" 3-4 times and I could always reproduce this. But ever since that day, it never happened to me again).
B.) if I enable [preferences>>file handling>>prefer ACR for JPEG files], ACR launches and displays the raster graphic the smart object is based on. Upon closing ACR, no window opens-up for editing the smart object.
I have been working with smart objects for some months now and everything worked fine. This bug started occurring some 3 weeks ago, but as I said, sometimes it works, sometimes not. I cannot find any regularities as to what could lead to this malfunctioning. The only regularity I found so far (but could be a coincidence) is that the smart objects affected by the bug were always (at least I don't remember any other case) .jpeg files that I opened in Photoshop(CS3) with abovementioned preference set so that ACR launches upon opening a .jpeg file. In ACR I alt-clicked the open button so that it says "open objects". So the smart objects were always based on a single layer .jpeg raster graphic opened in ACR.
My best bet would be that there is something that ACR writes into the smart object that isn't 100% identical to the way Photoshop would write smart object if I:
1) open the .jpeg file in ACR
2) click open/open copy (not open object)
3) convert the raster graphic to a smart object inside Photoshop itself.
But that's only a guess. I have quite a lot of work to do currently, but I hope to be able to provide additional information quickly enough if need be.

I am having an issue when trying to use the Free Transform function in Photoshop CS5.1. After pressing command+T, the bounding box appears, but when I attempt to resize, the program becomes unresponsive. After a minute or two I can cancel the Free Transform and the program become responsive once again. Seems to be more of an issue when trying to transform more than one layer at once.
Â
I am on a 1 year old MacBook Pro with 16GB, I have 10 GB of free space. I am on OS X 10.7.5 (recently installed this upgrade and this may be part of the issue.)
Â
I am in 64-bit mode. My memory usage set at 70%. The cache tile size is set to 1024K . I have reset my settings, ran all available updates.
Â
My card specs are:
Video Card Vendor: ATI Technologies Inc.
Video Card Renderer: ATI Radeon HD 6750M OpenGL Engine
Â
After visiting the AMD site, found that they do not have an update for 10.7.5 and do not have the HD6750 listed for Mac.
Â
Edit: Also, cannot move the image once I press command+T. (Or at least it make the program unresponsive for a while)
Â
Update: Uninstalled entire design suite and re-installed. Still having the same issue.

I try to free transform an image whether it be rotating, enlarging, scewing or whatever, after I deselect, photoshop or imageready will automatically try and blur the image around so it seems smoother.
This is fine most of the time, but it produces some transparent pixels, and gifs have problems with these. Is there a way to stop PS and IR from doing this on a free transform so it just leaves the image as it is before deselecting?

I have been following a tutorial in modelling a helmet, which is meant for beginners to learn the software well.Â
I know that I have already ask this, but I want to rephrase this better.
 I can't find the "reset setting" button from edit on My maya 2014 software.Â
The reason the tutorial is using the "rest setting" is to adjust the width, height and depth of the cube I have out there by using numbers as its measurement.
I don't know if there are any other buttons that can do the same job, or is there another way to find this button... I can't progress my learning until I know what to do about this.

I have used this program for years to edit photos before uploading them to my web-site. I have always used the "Free Transform" option to change photo sizing, until today.<br /><br />Today I went to edit a photo, and the "Free Transform" option (under the "edit" pull down menu) is GONE!<br /><br />The option is not grayed out (meaning that it is not usable). It is simply gone from the pull down down menu.<br /><br />I don't know if I accidentally changed an important setting, or if I'm doing something wrong, or if the software has a glitch.<br /><br />If anyone is knowledgeable or experienced with this matter,.net

I have 2 problems: 1, the crop tool doesn't work, I get something that looks like a midget Free Transform. 2, I can't turn off the Free Transform Tool. In other words, I want to use the Lasso Tool or Rectangular Marquis (is that how you spell it?) with the Free Transform option, which interferes with movement of the selection. I've tried purging the system, shutting off the computer, everything. The crop is dead and the Free Transform is a vampire.
