Photoshop :: Keeping Photos Within App Windows Without Tabs
Dec 12, 2012
I'm using Photoshop CS6 on Windows 7 with a dual monitor setup. In a prior version, it was the case that multiple open photos could stay in the application frame, such that moving the frame would move all open photos with it, but without using tabs/partitions, which I dislike. Is there no longer a way to configure it this way? I've experimented with "Enable Floating Document Window Docking" and "Open Documents as Tabs", but they aren't doing the trick.
I'm often juggling several applications, and regularly find it convenient to move things from one monitor to the other based on what specific task I'm doing. I know tabs are one "solution", but are inefficient and impractical in my experience. The images I work with typically start very large and get resized/cropped during editing for use in email and the web. Consequently, I have open a mix of very large and small pictures, some portrait and some landscape. Using tabs or multi-up partitions, I can either view only the image I'm working on or some fixed number of images in a fixed (though adjustable) layout. In the latter case, I can usually only see a small portion of the large photos unless I manually resize them based on the current partition size, which changes based on what else I'm currently working on. If I choose to have one "Fit on screen", it's resized based on the full screen size, not the partition the image is in, so again I'm only able to see a portion of a large image. Smaller pictures end up with wasted space within their partitions.

I am not a fan of the application frame. I disabled it because I want my files in separate windows the Mac way. But when I open a second file, it appears as a tab in the first window. I hate these tabs. I want my files to open in a separate window, the same way I have always worked. Can Photoshop CS6 be made to behave like previous Mac versions?

When the "Open Documents as Tabs" checkbox is UNCHECKED, opening multiple documents via File > Open will open them as intended: stacking them on top of each other. However, dragging multiple documents onto the PS tab in the taskbar, or dragging them directly onto PS application surface will NOT have this effect and will open the documents in tabbed mode regardless of the prefs settings. THIS IS !%$@#$ ANNOYING!!! I hope adobe considers fixing this without making me pay a gazillion bucks for another update for a bug fix.

I know it can be done, and I think I've even done it before, but I cannot remember/figure out how to maintain tag info when I transfer files. I have a new computer and would like to transfer some photos, but want to keep the tags attached, so I don't have to retag! Please help! I've written the tag information into the file and tried backup, export, and burn. The photos transfer, but no tag information.

Also, is there a way to create the DVD so it can be played on a TV DVD player?

Say I had a group of windows in one layer. A wall in a layer beneath and a giant flock of birds in the layer below that. How would I be able to make the birds visible in the windows while keeping the flock easily editable? CLipping masks seem to only work well with single objects.

I am using v X4.I have a video clip that contains audio that I split off into its own audio track, right click split audio. I then edited out a couple parks of the video replacing the cut video with a still image. right click replace video with still image. So far so great, everything plays back perfectly. When I put transitions in where the video meets the photo or when the photo then meets up with the video again the audio gets out of sync. Is there a way to get the transition in there and still have the audio track be in sync with the rest of the video?
V=video T=transition "photo for 4 seconds" is where the photo has bee inserted. A= audio track X=out of sync

The instructions in Adobe Photo Elements 11 Classroom In a Book are the classic Windows "Drag and Drop" Method. However, when I try to do it, the cursor/icon I am dragging turns into a gray circle with a gray diagonal when it reaches the Media Browser pane in the Organizer and the folder/photo is not imported into the Organizer when I "drop." Do I need to change setting in Windows (Vista, SP2) or Photoshop Elements 11?

issues switching layout tabs by clicking on the tabs?
Occasionally, clicking the Model or other layout tab results in no action, as if I'm not clicking on it.
All other controls (within and external to C3D) function normally so it's not a mouse hardware issue.
It will usually correct itself if I "restore down" the main application window, then maximize it again.
The -layout command is a workaround too.

I have searched, watched videos, and more to try and figure out how to round the corners on my photo. I followed what instruction were available and still no luck. I will describe what I have done.
Objective: Round corners on a 960 px x 250 px photo for a website. Radius 35 px. Photo already sized the way I need it. Background needs to be transparent saved in png 24 so nothing shows except the photo with rounded corners.
Step one: I insert image into Photoshop
Step two: Use rounded rectangle tool:
Step 3: Move photo layer to the top of my rounded rectangle layer
Step 4: Clip Alt+Enter line between the layers: I get nothing but the transparency.
Step 5: Merge Visible. Still Nothing.

i want to be able to take a photo inside a house and be able to see outside the window also?
i realise that i probably have to use 2 photos exposing for inside and outside - and in these shots it almost looks like they have used a program to stitch the photos together.

Get message: "Could not complete your request because of a program error" I know PE 2 is ancient but have been using it for years and feel most comfortable in it.
All of a sudden, I'm getting this message (more than once). Using regular old jpg files from same camera. why it won't save the photos.

When I print directly from Elements 10, my photos come out much darker than when I print directly from my computer on Windows 7? Is there a MAIN adjustment (not each photo) in the program which lightens all print-outs? My printer is fine. It copies photos properly and prints out from Windows (My Pictures) properly.

I used to use element 7 to send photos to my friends, and the program understood that my default server was Windows Mail. I bought a new camera (Nikon D800) which has very large file sizes and Elements 7 could not handle these large files and I was advised by Adobe to buy Elements 11 and this program could handle these large files. The unfortunate thing is that when I tried to send photos to friends, it would not allow me to access my Windows Mail server and only showed Microsoft Outlook or Adobe Mail to choose from. I don't use either of these servers for my e-mails, but now I have this programs that does handle the photos from my new camera and allows me to organize and adjust my photos, but I can't send them to my friends with this program as it does not recognize Windows Mail as my default.

Have just transferred photos from old to new computer. Photos transferred OK but folder names did not. It would save a lot of work if folder names could be transferred as well. Running Photoshop 11 and Windows 8.1.

After importing pictures from my digital camera in RAW format using Lightroom 4 it places them in my Pictures file on tghe hard drive. When I go to my Pictures file and try to open the photos i get the message: Photo Gallery Can't Open The Images Or Video Because The Format Isn't Supported Or You Don't Have The Latest Upgrade To Photo Gallery. Pictures from a small point & shoot work fine. I get the same results when importing using the camera Mfg's software.

In Library Mode:
Moving a photograph from one folder to another creates two copies, one in the destination folder and one in the originating folder.In grid view, right clicking on a discarded photo and choosing delete from disk no longer works as the photo deleted does not show in Lightroom but in windows the files still remains on the hard drive.
In the first few months these two features worked properly but no longer respond in the same way. I tried Alt delete and the photo was removed from Lightroom but not from the original folder.
Is this a bug or a windows problem?

I am unable to make the Lr 5 to print on my HP photosmart C309a. Previously I had Lr 5 running on my PC with Windows 7 and I was able to use the same HP printer to print both from the main tray and photo tray. Now I cannot get any photos from Lr printed, while the printer does print a test page ok from Device Manager.

Ive been using CS3 for ages, and have just gone on to CS4. I finally worked out how to open a new document and "float all in windows" (from the arrange documents box on the tool bar. However, I have to select it from the box for every new photo I open. Is there a way of telling it to open each new photo in "Float all in windows" automatically?
