Photoshop :: How To Hide All Paths Without Enlarging Palette
Aug 24, 2012
You know how you can deselect a path "layer" (for lack of better word) in the Paths palette by clicking in the empty space of the Paths palette? What if your Paths palette has so many saved paths that there is no empty space to click in?
I know I can just extend the palette, but I don't want to have to do that, because all my palettes are tightly organized into a Giant Wall o' Palettes on a second monitor. Is there a way to hide all paths without having to extend the palette to reveal empty space?

I see that I am allowed to specify more than one path for tool palettes. When that is done, which path is used if a user creates a new palette?I have some custom palettes on the network. They swap each other out using the hidden toolpalettepath variable. As part of that, they also include a button to restore the path to the default local folder. I am considering placing all of the delivered ones on the network but also want users to have a way of adding their own and having them placed in a standard location under their network user area.

Currently using 2013. In 2011 or 2012 when Anchoring Right (or Left) a palette Auto-hide has behavior that seems odd to me. If you click Auto-hide on an anchored palette to open it (and presumably keep it open) it detaches from the anchor. And then when you close it you lose the palette on the anchor. To me this wastes time. I'd like to keep that palette open to work a bit and not have to hassle with it by not having it open, but at the same time don't want to waste time later calling it up and anchoring it again. Is this still happening in 2013?

I want to join two paths to create a shape that I can fill but at the same time retain one of the original paths (the red one in the image below). I can copy the path I want to retain but surely there is a more elegant solution. See below for for an illustration:

I have to enlarge quite a few high-res images for a catalog project. My rule of thumb has always been 120% of actual size max and I'm still safe.
However, the client wants some images to cover spreads, which would force me to blow those pics sometimes past 200% of their actual size.
I called the printer who's printing the job to get their thoughts on fractiles software and they said that they typically go to 200% of actual size with little or no pixilation/degradation. I find that hard to believe...

I've got a pic of...say...my son. I place a pic of a transparent CD on a layer on top of the son. I select the cd (that is a circle selection...) and I now want to sort of magnify what shows of my son within that selection...

I found a picture that I would really like to use as my wallpaper, but the problem is that its resolution is 1024 x 768. My desktop's resolution is set at 1680 x 1050 and when I try to have set it as my wallpaper in stretch mode, it's a little bit blurry. Does anyone know how I can enlarge it in photoshop and keep it looking sharp?

I've got some renders from Cinema 4D that I want to use for a banner at school. The problem is that the renders are all 1024x768, and the banner is something like 3 ft by 6 ft. How can I make these pics big enough to use on the banner without the losses in quality that come with stretching an image? I've tried simply blurring them, but there are some layer styles used and those don't blur. What should I do?

I have an image that is (1920 x 1273)px at 300dpi. The final image will need to be cropped down to (175 x 190)px at 72dpi.
When I crop it and lower the dpi it gets very small. Too small for how I would like to use it. I would like for the individual to be the focal point of the image and be large enough for easy viewing int the (175 x 190)px image size. So I was thinking I could enlarge the image starting at its original quality, especially since it is at 300dpi and then crop it and lower the dpi. But that does not seem to deliver a larger size image either.

I've got a sewing pattern that was drawn by hand. It's larger than a standard sheet of printer paper (maybe 14"x20" or so). I scanned it in two pieces and matched those up, then used the pen tool to trace around the original pattern and stroked the path. Now I need to reduce the whole thing in such a way that if someone else were to download the file and enlarge it by the same amount (or trace around it with X amount of added space all around) it would match my original pattern. (Gee, does that make sense? I hope I explained it right.) I have tried changing the image size, saving it as a new file, and then opening that new file and enlarging the image size by the same amount I reduced it, but when I print it (just allowing the lines to go off the edges of the paper since it's too big), it doesn't match my original.

What resolution do I use to enlarge a 3”x4” photo into one that is one that is 3 ‘x4’?
I am using S-Spline (PhotoZoom) which is similar to Genuine Fractal to enlarge pictures.
I am also using Photoshop 6. Obviously, a photo enlarged to 3’x4’ at 300 dpi would probably crashed my computer.
Is there a mathematically way to determine resolution when enlarging photos?

So currently I have an image that I'll be using as my background for a wallpaper, however the dimensions of the image is 2100x1184, and the final dimensions of my wallpaper will be 2880x1800. Therefore I need to re-scale the image so that it's bigger. Now knowing that I can't do that without loss of quality, I've decided to instead "add" stuff to the image such that it looks larger. Eg. expanding the sky, adding additional buildings.
I've tried using the patch tool, but it doesn't let me add to the space outside of the image (my canvas is 2880x1800, and the empty space is transparent).
I'm wondering, is there any tools/techniques for accomplishing what I'm trying to do? Or even better, is there another method of enlarging the image without loss of quality?

how do i get the effect of a super big head ( not by liquify ) with a small body of a person in a complicated background? i do know selection methods using extract tool, but i need to maintain the resolution whilst upsizing the head, and if i downsize the body, there's no background to go with.

how to increase the size of a picture without it getting too pixelated to identify what the image is. The problem I am having is I had to take a screenshot of a picture online and I need to identify specific wording on a small item in someones hand. I tried clicking on resize image and unchecked re-sample image but that is not working either.

I searched for this topic here, but everything I found was at least a couple years old, so I thought I'd see what the current consensus is. I'm printing out a bunch of pictures for framing, and some of my older ones were taken with Powershot S60. There's the cliche that it's not the equipment, it's the photographer, but that's not true if you want to blow up a 5MP shot to a large format.
I've tried the repeated 110% scaling technique (with and w/o bicubic sharper) with an Unsharp mask after it, and it seems to work pretty well up to about a 4 steps. There seemed to be contradictory comments on here as to whether any specialized plug-ins such as Fractal..something or others provide a genuine benefit. Any advice?

How can I increase my work space (the photoshop file open) ? I've tried Image > Image Size but when height or width is changed, the whole picture is enlarged to fit into the new size.
I would like to keep the image and simply add 200px to the bottom of the file, is this possible?

I've got an urgent fix to do for some CD artwork, sadly I am far from being a photoshop guru and I don't have time to send it back and get it redone.
Basically, I have a load of text spiraling inwards towards the center of the disk but it ends up a bit too close to the center. I need to enlarge the hole in the middle without distorting the text too much.
My first thought was to try the Filter/Distort/Spherize effect and indeed this does make the hole proportionally bigger but it also makes the text near the edge much smaller than the text near the center.
I need some kind of radial or spiral transform/distortion that will maintain the proportion of the lettering, although roughly would be fine, it doesn't need enlarging very much.
I am using photoshop 7,
