When I maximize an image in CS4 the image goes to full screen and covers the tool, task bars, and everything else. Is there a way to keep it from doing that? It did not do that on my CS2.
View 9 Repliesim working on a PC , with windows 7, with photoshop CS5 i searched everywhere for answer , but none was given.. people did mention this problem, but for different photoshop versions , and, i had it good till i dont know what happened and changed it, so i believe it is fixable but people understood it wrong.
anyhow, the problem is, when you try to maximize the image window (assuming you changed it from tabs), the window maximize all over the screen, over the tools and title bar.
instead of staying inside the workspace.as i mentioned, it used to be like it , but something happened and now its all over the thing.i tried double click the hand tool, all sort of things with the "F" and Tab shortcuts, the arrange documents thing on the top, even trying to restore default setting but nothing really did the trick.
i tried to look for something called "Application frame", that somehow suppose to do just that, under window->Application frame, but its not there. again, it used to be ok so i know there is still hope..
here it is restored, under "fit screen" option, notice it only get the hight right, i would not call it "fit screen" but what ever..
red circels show the title bar and tools..
and this is when i hit the maximize button and unleash hell, red circles are where the title bar and tools were, not so nice and cool..
i noticed none of the others gave pictures, so i gave it a go..there are no words to describe how annoying it is.
I am playing around with my .dwt and cui so cad will start up the same ever time
However i cant figure out how to stop "task pane" and "express tools" from opening on start up.
Covering with a netting. There must be an easier was, but, here is how I do it - I need to learn a better way.
1) I have photo of a large yellow pillow on top of a blue sofa. I want to apply netting over the pillow.
2) I create a "netting image" (using mspaint, really quick) large enough to cover the pillow, with 2-pixel-wide diagonal lines and white spaces in between of about 8 pixels. This file is opened under mspaint, and copied all to the clipboard.
3) In CS2, with my sofa jpg opened, I duplicate the background layer, giving me a "background.copy" layer, and I hide the original background layer.
4) I use the magic wand and quick mask brush to select the pillow, then I delete it (from background.copy)
5) I paste from the clipboard, giving me a 3rd layer (layer1) consisting of the black on white net large enough to cover the pillow - this new layer gets automatically selected.
6) I use the magic wand, with "contiguous" unticked, and select all the white spaces between the lines - then I delete these white spaces.
7) I move the background.copy layer on top of layer1 (the net layer), and I see my sofa with the pillow deleted but with the mesh showing in the deleted space where the pillow should be, but nowhere else.
8) I show the original layer "background", and the yellow pillow now appears, but the netting lines are showing over it, and nowhere else.
9) I flatten the image and its done.
Two things - this is really involved for something so simple as covering an object with a netting. And, I don't know how to bellow and squish (distort) the netting to reflect a truer picture of how it would look around the edges (the netting should be more compressed close to the edges to reflect a true 3d picture of how it would look - something like the "Sphere" option from the Dstort filter - but, for non-spherical random shapes.
How would I go about covering an image in a particular blue but not see any of the images original colors.
I tried adding a layer onto the image and chaging the fill to a lower setting but that did not work.
I want to use the Pattern Stamp tool to clone a painting effect from a photograph to a new layer.
What I am finding is that the pattern is perfectly replicated on the new layer except that a thin strip of the sky is appearing at the bottom of the image. It seems like a strip of the top of the image is appearing at the bottom of the new layer version
I am selecting the whole area of the source image before defining the image as a pattern. It is not a problem of the "Aligned" setting - that is always selected.
I would like to create like a blue filter to cover my picture to make them "blueish". so for example, a picture in black&white will become somehow a little more blue. if i have a picture representing a garden, everything should turn to blue tints.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use photos for our office website. the company is doing a full rebrand and one of the members is not available to do a new photo shoot so we have to use the wonderful existing ones but need to go over the old logo. I have cropped the photo out as much as I can but have not had enough luck with using the cloning tool on such a large space with a small amount of light change as it comes up looking like the bright blue wall behind us is streaky. How can I do this successfully?
I am using Photoshop Elements 11.
I am having display problems at any size besides 25%, 50%, 100% or 200%. There is a grid covering the photo at any other view.

View 3 Replies View RelatedThe toolbox remains minimized.
The healing tool remains selected. I've tried the following:
1) Reopened program
2) Restarted CPU
3) Reloaded software
Preferably via a batch function, since I have 50 or 60 files... maybe more, that I've been saving with maximized compatibility.
I tried disabling 'Maximize Compatibility' and re-saving the files, but this didn't result in reduced file sizes as far as I can tell.
Is there any way (in PS 7) to force imported images to automatically maximize and then enlarge to actual pixel size? When I'm retouching dozens or hundereds of images it gets time consuming and mundane having to manually maximize then ctrl+alt+0 to view as 'actual pixels'. I've read the manual cover to cover and didn't find anything (or I missed it).

View 4 Replies View RelatedI found out that QuickLook in Mac OS X doesn't work properly for PSD documents if the file is saved without Maximize Compatibility feature. If you press space bar, only white canvas appears and not the actual document. I don't want to use this feature because I don't need the compatibility and all the files are much smaller without it. However, as I work with a lot of PSD files I am used to use QuickLook a lot. Is there a way to have maximize compatibility disabled and at the same time be able to use previews with QuickLook?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have this problem with EG covering over the cut area.
The feature line is partially under the surface making a cut.
It should be a hole where EG and the slopes meet as the image shows!
When I make an infill for the fill area it makes the the bottom of the cut area but the surface stays as a top!
It is very clear in Object viewer!
I'm picking this catagory as I think it is something that has been done before with mapping flat images to a 3D sphere (globe).
The application: Mapping a pattern design onto a sphere - in this case a marble. The pattern design is in pdf format and has been manipulated so that the image fits a certain sized sphere (2") around the circumference. I'm hoping to take this 2D image and wrap around the middle of the marble in full image length and have the image diminish as it rises to the top and bottom of the marble for fitting the surface.
I have lightly researched bring in a pdf format file into AutoCad and see that it can be done. Now I need to address the technique of wrapping it around a 3D sphere.
i have cs5 suite. last week everything fine in photoshop. this week, only the tools that are showing are available to use. i can not access the tools when i click on the corner of individual tools. i am running version 10.6.8
View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like photoshop to show a file image for the thumbnail (instead the generic lines of type). I know in the pref box I can set the "Maximize File compatibility" to "Always" or Ask, and this will save a flattened version of the file as part of the document. But this greatly increased the file size. I did some checking on 10 layered files ranging from 14Mb to 45Mb. The new file size increased a whopping 35% to 88%. That's a heavy price to pay both on my system here, our back up / archive, CD / DVD burning, and our client systems. I'm in the process of putting together a browser based image library. To render a image thumbnail it shows the generic lines of type if layered (useless), and a image thumbnail only if "File compatibility" is set to Yes. ( Which greatly increases file size, and cost of storage space).
Is there a way to get a image thumbnail without having to set Maximize File Compatibility to Yes? It would seem to me that photoshop should be able to create a small, low res flattened version, at a low quality setting, that would be on the kb in size for a thumbnail. And imbed that into the file, vs the bloated composite. I understand the reason for the composite for file compatibailty with previous versions etc. Just not for creating the thumbnail.
When I first installed Photoshop CS6 Extended on my Mac it had a bar running along the top that had the program name in it (Photoshop) with the red, orange and green, close, minimize and maximize buttons in it.
Somehow I have turned this off and the three buttons no longer show. Below is an example picture of the bar I'm wanting to turn on: I have the application frame turned on and they still do not show.
When I open, say, 10 images at once, I see (10) individual "restore down" windows atop each other;I then maximize top window & process; when I close top window:in my CS1, next window=image auto-maximizes window & sliders will appear if I zoom to 100%
in my CS2, next window=image is still "restore down" & I have to click windows upper right "Maximize" icon
Question: how to get CS2 "behaving" like CS1?
I must have clicked a button in VideoStudio Pro 5 and suddenly I have dots all over my images and video clips. The video plays with audio and titles but no images!

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a glass bottle with a cork and the "map art" function isn't working properly. I turned a cork pattern into a symbol and applied it to the top and sides of the cork (which looks excellent btw), but as you can (barely) see in the picture it's leaving a white outline around the edge of the front and back. Is there a trick to fixing this that I'm not aware of yet? I'm still pretty new with illustrator.
This isn't a full screen version of the bottle so it's nearly impossible to see the white line.

View 9 Replies View RelatedWell how can I work with photoshop, when after I save TOP LEFT it locks the image and I can't rotate it to make the other corners?
Everything is locked and I'm quicky getting frustrated here and wondering why I paid money for something that won't work they way I need it to.
I mean using Namo web editor wasn't this hard, it was easy right out of the box, and every button worked how it was suppose to and did not lock the image or lock up at all.
It's gotten so that I have to shut down photoshop and restart just to do anything or create another layer to unlock an image. Then, none of the buttons won't work after the 1st working, I click on elliptical and it does nothing, but display a double headed arrow.
I am producing some discount cards for a buisness and will place eight of them on to size A4 document, how can I divide the document automatically so that eight equal spaces appear repeated across the page. I have tried defining a pattern but did not work the way I wanted.
