Photoshop :: Marquee Tool Crop Size Won't Change?

Aug 31, 2012

CS5 v12.1
MAC mini
OS 10.7.4
 
The last time I used PS was about two weeks (it's summer) and I had the marquee size set to 2.18x2.18 inches. I just changed it to 2.15x4.35 inches. When I click on the image, which is about 2.25x4.45 inches, it selects an area 2.18x2.18 inches. The dimensions in the boxes are 2.15 and 4.35 inches. Feather is 0 pixels.

Photoshop :: Marquee Tool *with* Crop Shield?

Mar 18, 2008

What Im looking for is a way to have features of the crop tool--resizable selection and variable outline (shield) opacity--BUT to create a selection out of the area to be retained from the crop without actually cropping.

The Marquee tool gives me the desired resize functions and the ability to make a selection (and thus a mask or channel) but doesnt give me the shield found in the crop tool.

Is there some way to have a Marquee and a Crop shield?

Photoshop :: Rectangular Marquee Tool Selection And Then Crop Photo But Nothing Happened

Apr 29, 2013

I'm trying to use the rect marquee tool to do a selection and then crop a photo but when I do nothing happens.
 
A couple of strange things have/are happening:
 
-At one point, while I was in transform selection I there was added space around the marquee, which became the new edge, as opposed to the marquee itself.
 
-The marquee is in the shape of a rounded rectangle.

Photoshop :: CS6 Keeps Crashing When Select Horizontal Type / Rectangular Marquee / Crop Tool?

Mar 4, 2013

and probably more, but when you consider how little functionality the loss of those three buttons give me, you can understand how little use I am getting out of CS6 so far.It makes no difference whether I use 32-bit or 64-bit.
 
I am using Windows 7 Home Premium on a relatively new Toshiba Satellite C660-1LD with 2.53 gigahertz Intel Core i3 M 380 with 3892 Megabytes Usable Installed Memory* with onboard Intel(R) HD Graphics.(Processor & Memory details from Belarc Advisor)
 
I sometimes get a message on load saying that Photoshop cannot find my 3D settings (although my Graphics card has 3D capability), but as I'm not using Photoshop's 3D editing tools, this is no issue to me at present.

Photoshop :: Preset Crop Tool Not Matching Image Size After Crop

Jul 1, 2013

I am a labtech at a community college and look after 48 mac pros in which the students use the entire creative suite. (I only mention this becuase any answers need to consider variations in system settings or photoshop settings. college students get into everything!)
 
But the issue is when you select the crop tool and enter a custom constraint and crop
 
The image size is sometimes a full 2 inches off of what you set as a crop?! I havn't run into this before

[I do know you can use the drop down box and use {size and resolution} but I want to know why it doesnt work under custom and unconstrained]

Photoshop :: Adjusting Size Produced With Marquee Tool?

Mar 7, 2012

When I use the marquee tool to draw a shape - circle/square etc I sometimes don't get the size exactly to my requirements. is there a way to fine tune the produced size? I'm assuming that there is some combination of keys that will allow me to make fine adjustments up or down to the size of the shape. How to do this without closing down and starting again and again until I get what I require?

Photoshop :: Eliminate Size Of Box On Rectangular Marquee Tool?

Nov 20, 2012

I have CS6 on two Mac computers, a desktop and a laptop. On the desktop, everytime I draw a Rectangular Marquee, a very distracting black box with dimensions comes on at the lower right corner of the selection. This does not happen with CS6 on my laptop. I can't find a control to turn this box off. Where is it?

Photoshop :: Rectangular Marquee And Crop Tools

Aug 17, 2008

Using Photoshop CS v8.0 on XP Home....

Whenever I try to use the Rectangular Marquee or Crop tools, they're stuck in a portrait style (looks like the aspect ratio of a regular sheet of paper). I can't make a square or a landscape-type rectangle. Furthermore, on the crop tool I'm not getting the handles where I can adjust the size of the crop box. When I try to make the shape bigger the top and bottom edges go completely off the canvas. This problem has happened a couple of times and usually corrects itself when I reboot, but this time it hasn't. I've probably got a setting wrong somewhere.

Photoshop :: Crop Tool Prior To CS6 Vs Perspective Crop Tool

Feb 26, 2013

In the old days, one could just use the crop tool and, while drawing crop lines, check the perspective box if you found that you needed to change the perspective. With CS6 if you start with the crop tool, and find you want to change the perspective, you have to change tools to the new perspective crop tool. In the process, you have to tell the newly opened dialog box that you don't want to crop, to get to the perspective tool, which now has reset to its defaults. You've lost your cropping and you have to start over.

Xara :: Selector Tool Becomes Page-size Change Tool

Aug 6, 2011

In Xara Designer Pro 7, when I have selector tool active and want to drag over a number of elements to select them the selector tool will change the size of the canvas (page). Is that not a bug? I used this way of selecting elements often, and it is not good for me with this new behaviour.

Is it a bug or is it a new setting which I then need to change?

Photoshop :: Marquee Selected Size

Dec 18, 2007

I've just started using PS CS2 and i can't figure it how to view the size when using marquee tool. For example when i want to select something i want to see the current size of marquee while i'm moving marquee around. It's really hard to select for example 153×44 with marquee when i have no idea how big current selection is. Hope you understand what i mean.

Also, is there any way to measure for example how many pixels is between two let's say bots. I know that you have ruler but that doesn't really. Basically similar to above with marquee size. When you draw a line, it shows how long this line is.

GIMP :: Missing Crop Tool Which Can Rotate Crop Rectangle?

Aug 4, 2012

I am missing a crop tool which can rotate the crop rectangle. Similar to photoshop's tool. I found no way to rotate the crop rectangle in gimp. How do you cut out something from an image if it needs to be rotated while cropping? I tried rotating first then cropping but it does not give me enough precision so I end up with transparent areas at the border.

Photoshop :: Warp Tool - Can Number Of Handles / Point And Grid Size Change

Nov 28, 2012

I've converted a 2D image into a smart object, dragged into a project then transformed it using the Distort command (similar to how you might distort a 2d image to make it sit inside a photo frame at an angle) . I need to then warp that image around over something that looks like a curved panel thats 2D but looks 3d. Its not a 3d object, but a rendered 2d image that just looks 3d.
 
I'm using the Transform > Warp tool as Puppet Warp isnt available after using Distort when using Smart objects.
 
Warp works fine to some extent but I could really do with more handles and smaler grid for more accurate warping rather than the default 3x3 grid & handles..
 
Possible to add more handles/ nodes/ control points (or whatever they'e called) and/ or increase grid points in the same way Puppet Warp does this so as I drag around I control a tigher & smaller space?

Photoshop :: CS5 Size Shown While Dragging Marquee

I like in CS6 when I use the marquee to select, as I am dragging it is actively showing me the size I am selecting in pixels (what you can find in the info panel).Is there a way to have this in CS5.5? It is a lot easier than always opening the info panel.

Photoshop :: Marquee Tool

Oct 18, 2008

I would like to know how to draw a specific size marquee. I usually click the marquee tool and simply drag vertically and horizontally while watching the "sizing" measures. Is there an easy way to draw, say a 5" x 7" rectangle without having to be so precise with the tool.

Photoshop :: Marquee Tool?

May 11, 2009

I'm having a problem in Photoshop 7.0 where I can't see the borders of the selected area while dragging the cursor.  Once I release the mouse button I can see the borders OK, but not while dragging.  This makes precision selections difficult.  It seem to happenÂwith any tool used to select an area i.e. marquee, lasso, pen, etc.

Photoshop :: Marquee Tool

Feb 12, 2008

I seem to have turned something on, Photoshop 6.0. Everytime I attempt to use the marquee tool (square) to select a portion of a picture to define a pattern, the ends go round and it feathers it like a vignette....What have I done here? Did I turn something on, and if so, how do you turn it off?
