Photoshop :: Random Blocks Take Over CC Canvas
Sep 26, 2013
The blocks are seemingly random and happen unexpectedly. What's worse is they become permanently incorporated into my file, thus destroying my work.Note that you can see the blocks have become part of both the art on the layers as well as the masks.
I'm working on a 27" iMac 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5 with 8GB of 1333 MHz DDR3 RAM, using Photoshop 14.1 x64. I have seen some reports about possible video driver errors associated with this model, This is a Photoshop-only problem as far as I can tell. I do believe I encountered this in Photoshop CS5 at one point as well.

For no apparent reason I am opening images where there would be a blue background, and getting blocks or streaks of black pixels. Using CS 5. How do I prevent or correct?

I need to make block with certain random elements in it which regenerate when the block is copied. In this case it's the rotation of the main part of a drawn tree, In which I want the trunk to stay the same but for the polyline that makes up the leafy part to rotate randomly.

I'm working on a flyer on a 8x11 canvas, but I want all of the elements I'm working to be transferred to a NTSC video film format. I understand how to a open a NTSC (Video Film Canvas), but I do not understand how to convert a canvas that I'm working to that.

I just got CS5.1 at my job. This must be a preference, but when I adjust the Canvas size, it will constrain the image, rather than cropping the canvas. The Anchor in the Canvas Size menu appears outlined (highlighted?) which indicates that this is something in preferences that I can adjust.

When I go to create a File/New Canvas, sometimes the canvas area shrinks a lot.
Is it possible to keep the original canvas size ?

Sometimes I work offstie, so no wacom tablet with me. How can I spray sparkles/dust/etc and vary aspects randomly such as size? Even with the wacom would like more random results, than gradated.
I really like how illustrator does this with sliders so you can set a range. Can I set up something simlar in Photoshop?

I updated my Mac and everything was fine until i had to restart it. My Photoshop's keyboard short cut became all random like this:I tried restarting my computer again but it has not changes.
The most weird part is that when i tried to change the short-cuts, it won't work even though i clicked on accept and "ok". Is there a way i can turn this back? It wasn't like this when i first got this back at November.

I am having a problem with my brush/stamp/eraser tool in photoshop CS5.5. Whenever I click to paint, erase..etc it will sometimes randomly paint elsewhere on my photo. Sometimes it will paint just one spot or other times it will paint a whole line or squiggle across my photo. I have checked my brush settings and I don't have anything turned on for it to do so (i.e. scattering, shape dynamics, spacing).

I've used Photoshop CS6 Extended Edition for over a year on my current laptop (specs below), but now it just crashes at random points. I get the message 'Photoshop has stopped working' and then I can only close it. I didn't change any settings. First I thought it happened because I also had Visual Studio open (also uses alot ram etc), but even after I closed it and did a reboot Photoshop kept crashing :'(
My specs are:
Pc: Dell latitude D630 86x
CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.20Ghz
Graphics: Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family
Os: Windows 8 Pro
Ram: 2Gb
I know it isn't the best you can get but first I could use Photoshop without any problems.
Edit: I have updated all my drivers and it still won't work.

Using cs5 ps version 12 and randomly photoshop will not open any file. I can open ps itself and ask to open a file and all the menus appear but no window with the art or pic! Cannot move any of the menus either. Only way to rectify is to reboot!

There must be a way to spray points randomly within a set radius. I don't see any tools to do this though in the tool bar.

I'm creating a landscape plan, and I would like a method for creating leaves on the trees. I can draw an initial leaf and copy it, but then I'm confronted with the tedious task of resizing, rotating, and pasting them onto the tree hundreds of times over. I know that in some drawing programs, there's a random spray tool that allows you to continuously paste a selection at random points within a given radius. Is there a tool like that in Photoshop, preferably something that also randomly modifies the size and rotation of the selection?

I have just completed an update of a MacPro 3,1 by adding more RAM, going from 12-20GB of RAM, adding a 240GB SSD that is less than half full vs 7200rpm 1TB boot drive. I've also moved my LR and Bridge cache off the boot drive to a 60GB SSD eSata Raid 0 setup. I have increased my PS allocated RAM up to 71% of my total RAM or about 14GB, History state is set at 20 levels and cache levels @ 6 and cache blocks at 1024k. PS scratch is set to the internal SSD boot drive.
But PS CS5 is experiencing random slow downs and total stops where we can not do anything, including exiting the app. Mouse will work but we can not run actions or use tools then all of a sudden it just snaps out of it but it will still be slow. We can then quit PS and relaunch and for awhile it will be fine.
Is this possibly a RAM issue?

URLs....every tool useless without closing and restarting Photoshop.It always happens for me after the computer has been in sleep mode, although I have seen it occur out of nowhere from a fresh boot.I'm using a completely generic 3 button MS optical mouse with the generic MS driver, no other programs on my machine suffer from completely random mouse coords, including Photoshop CS3.
For replying with 'check your drivers': URL....
Here is the full system info for my machine:

I just bought PS CS6 and I am experiencing a problem where I get random full-pressure strokes while using the brush tool. I have been doing a lot of research into this but have not found a solution yet.
I am using a Cintiq 21UX on a Windows 7 machine. While I am drawing with the brush tool, I will get a random stroke that is at full pressure, as if I was using the mouse. It doesn't seem to be related to how fast I am sketching, or what kind of brush, eraser, tool etc I am using.
Photoshop CS6 is the only program on my computer that has this issue.I have tried every single driver available on the wacom site.My GPU is compatible with CS6 (GeForce 200 series) and I have the most recent drivers.I have tried resetting the brush tool.I have 'shape dynamics' turned on.

PS not letting me edit some random commands before executing them, including Duplicate, Fill, Print Preview, Stroke...possibly others I haven't discovered. When I click the dropdown choice, an edit window used to let me tailor pixel widths, color, etc. (I know, [it's what] 'edit' means). Now, the little eyedropper icon replaces my cursor, all top menus are grey except 'View' and 'Window', I get that awful 'doont!' sound, and my only option is to just hit 'Enter' and it executes the command with whatever preferences I last set before this problem, usually of no present use to me. I have relaunched PS, restarted the computer with no other tasks and relaunched, and impotently shaken my fist at the screen to no avail.

For several months I have had random shapes appear in my files when using vector masks. The scrambled imagery only appears at random and at certain zooms (over 25%) and will disappear upon restart of Photoshop. If I flatten the file, it will retain the scrambled imagery, but otherwise it seems to not actually corrupt the data, just the view on screen. I've been fighting this for months and have replaced drives, video cards, and it still persists.

I am designing an album page with text in cs5 on imac~ noticed there are random short light gray lines under text. They are there before I flatten and still after, and even after saving~ are they some sort of a guide line? And my worry is will they show up in printing, is there a way to get rid of them?

I have a layer which includes font that's been merged with another layer. I want it to appear to "ripple". The problem here is I can't just use some random ripple effect. I need to to correspond with the layer below it which is a pic of a wavy piece of paper. So it needs to be accurate enough so that no one will notice.

Anyone else experiencing this bug in CS4 - when starting a new selection (Marquee Tool), random sized boxes will appear BEFORE dragging and releasing the mouse button to define a selection. The boxes will often extend from the first mouse click to an image edge, but it's unpredictable.
I need to release the mouse button, deselect (left click), and then start over again. Once this behavior begins, it can recur repeatedly, making marquee selections VERY frustrating. I have to shut down Photoshop and restart, but eventually the bug will return (typically after 10-20 minutes of use). Code:

Simply fill the area that you want filled in with random lightning with black.
After that is done, go to:
1) ->Filter->Render->Clouds
2) -> Filter->Render->Difference Clouds
3) Press Control + I to inverse the colors
4) Press Control L to select the levels
5) Adjust the levels so that the lightning is dimmed but not too much.
And from there you can change the colors by pushing Control U, and click on the "Colorize" check box. Adjust the colors as you wish! and mess with it to get cool effects!

I have a stack of images that constitute a smart object and would like to apply a stack mode of random. Random would randomly select one pixel from the stack and bring it to the top, go to the next pixel location and do the same, and so forth.
For example, if the stack was 5 layers deep, one of the 5 pixels would be randomly selected, without median, averaging, or any other merging algorithm applied.

I get hanging, crashing, freezing, and random errors when I'm running Photoshop CS2 at random times.
It's really hard to explain, it just happens, and usually it happens when ANY other program other than Photoshop is running.
