Photoshop :: Sticky Slices - Layers And Text With CS5
Jun 6, 2013
I run PS CS5 with Windows 7 on a Bootcamp Macbook.
About 40% of the time when I want to nudge slices, layers or text fields nothing will happen until I hit space (hand tool) and shift the canvas. It's as if moving it wakes Photoshop up and it re-renders the screen with the newly positioned element.
This gets quite tedious and like I say, strangely doesn't happen all the time. Sometimes I can shut the program down and it will go away when reopened and sometimes not. Other times, this bug won't happen for a day or two then rear its head again for no apparent reason.

After saving a slice with message text, I'm still not seeing any text show up as I view the file in Safari (or Firefox or Chrome). I even built a dreamweaver page - in order to "export" the file. When I test the appearance using Dreamweaver browser mode, I still do not see any message text when hovering over the graphic with the mouse. What am I missing???

I am trying to get a white layer with see through writing which reveals the background image underneath. (Almost like I have put a stencil over a photograph). I have discovered this is called a clipping mask.
However, I am having difficulty using a clipping mask over multiple text layers. It seems to only do it to one layer directly beneath. I do not want to merge the text layers as I want to mess about with the design a fair bit.

CS6, OSX10.6.8, MacPro 8 core
CS6 fails to remember a keyboard shortcut after shutting down PS. Upon the next launch, the keyboard shortcut is not assigned anymore. When I assign a keyboard shortcut: Opt F3 to a script in File>Automate>Scripts>script_xxx the shortcut works fine until I shut down PS. The next time I launch CS6 the shortcut does not work. Going into the keyboard shortcut menu I find that under script_xxx there is no shortcut assigned. If I reassign the shortcut: Opt F3, it will work... until I shut down CS6. (rinse and repeat).

In the previous versions of Photoshop I've used (CS3, CS5), when I opened multiple panels (e.g. History, Info, etc) they would all stay open for reference. However with CS6 I've noticed that if I have, say, the History panel open, and also open, say, Info, then the History panel closes.
How can I change this behavior such that each panel I open will stay open and visible until I direct it otherwise? It's frustrating to have to keep using Window->History (or whatever) each time I need to see one or the other.

Tech- MacMini 2011, Lion, CS4
I edit color in LAB mode. In CS3 I would use the eyedropper tool to select a neutral point and then a levels layer to adjust the color while I was watching the LAB sliders in the color panel. Quick and easy.
Now the problem. In CS4 the color panel changes to greyscale when the levels layer is highlighted. How do I make the LAB sliders sticky? If I edit the color with simply a levels adjustment (not layer) it still works the old way I am used to. I toggled the dynamic slider preference to no avail and I can't find anything else I can change.

I often will borrow groups and layers from one document and drag them into a new or a different PS document to borrow the layers and formatting so I am not starting over from scratch with a design that I just need to re-work into a different size.
But in the last two weeks, when I drag the layers over, they start mysteriously changing into other layers that I did not drag over. What is causing this bug? It wasn't there before as I have performed this action many times in various projects. I am using PS CS6 on a Mac Book Pro.

I would like to increase the font size in many text layers at a time by selecting them in the layers panel. The font increases, but the text boxes don't expand to fit the increased size text. So I am having to make each box bigger manually. Is there a way to have the boxes expand to fit bigger text automatically through the layers panel?

The image attached has a kind of gloopy effect around the edge of all the text. It's not uniform but is tailored to each curve/angle and it rotates around the edge rather than all pointing in the same direction.
I've tried creating brushes in PS & Illustrator that could follow the curves of the edge but they look neither random or pretty...
I've tried diplacing a halftone line pattern & masking out the bits not needed but it won't curve the same way...
I've tried drawing the paths individually & stroking them with different effects but that just looked plain ugly...

1. When I attempt to COPY or MOVE an object that has a line attached to it the line also moves with it. It seems as though AutoCAD is considering them as one unit instead of separate objects. This is especially frustrating when using lines to mark Datum placements.
2. Also, I notice that the above occurs when moving objects, but instead of moving a line with the selection it stretches it. I must have an option selected, but would like to change that.

I love using keyboard shortcuts in Illustrator but since I've upgraded to CC Illustrator on both my computers acts as if the keys are covered in glue when trying to use keyboard shortcuts.
I'll hit the keyboard shortcut for the rectangle tool for instance...hit the keyboard again harder, nothing, strange I think and hit again harder, again and again and on the 8th or 10th time it suddenly works. This is repeated on most keyboard shortcuts on and off, not every time.
This is consistent and new since CC upgrade across both machines.

When importing images, the filename prefix, image number, directory, and other attributes are "sticky" between imports (they're remembered so you don't have to enter them again for the subsequent import), however the keywords aren't remembered. I'd suggest they should, just as the other attributes are. Wandering through the discussions, it appears the import dialog keyword field was sticky in 2009. Did it change or is there an options setting somewhere I can't find that would toggle this behavior?

We use AutoCad to name our dxf files for our Burn Table and whenever we get a new part it is a repetitive task to input layers and common text. So what I am curious is can AutoCAD input the layers and text automatically using a Macro?
I want the Macro to put in 6 layers and choose the layer color and title then input text boxes with word in 3 different layers. There will be about a total of 10 different text boxes with text already put in the boxes by the Macro.

Is there a way to make spot elevations not be sticky?
When I am annotating spot elevations in a site plan on a steep slope with retaining walls, the spot elevations keep snapping to points that I don't want them to. When I get close to a point I want to annotate, the spot will jump to another point that is close, such as the bottom of a retaining wall, and I want to annotate the grade at the top of wall.
Snap Off doesn't work.
Is there a setting buried in Revit that can be changed to control this? My guess it that it's built in and can't be changed...

I have several iitems that I need to place coincident to a single surface. Is there a way to select the surface and then just select each of the other components without having to select the main surface for each item?

I am working on a PC with Illustrator CS6 and an Intuos 4 Wacom pad. Essentially, when I use the selection tool, it will drag the selection box around with me until the pen stops hovering. So I click down, it starts to drag a selection box, I remove the pen and it keeps dragging.

Ok, so in photoshop there is this thing that when i resize or move around an image it will "stick" to the edges of the canvas allowing for an easier alignment, but this doesn't seem to be the case with gimp, so my question is: is there a way to activate those "sticky edges" in gimp while resizing a picture?

my gimp 2.8.6 makes majority normal layers turn into text layers..
Even if i "discard text information" from layer..and then save it as .xcf it doesnt work! Same layers appear as text layers when i open that .xcf Its not a big deal but it really slows me down when im working with layers..

Is there a way to slice PSD slices that appear on top of eachother in a PSD? What I mean is, can I assign a slice for each layer - since in the PSD the layers all appear at the same x,y coordinates...

Everytime I create a slice in Imageready, its being saved as .jpeg and all other automatic slices are created as .gif.
How can I make sure that my slices are also saved as .gif.

I'm trying to customize a website template that was made in Photoshop and has been sliced already. When I select slices and save them for the web, the webpage looks wrong when I open it in Dreamweaver. The text and/or images are basically cut off. I've tried moving different slices forward or backwards, but it hasn't helped.
I'm using Photoshop CS2 and Dreamweaver 8.

i have just sliced black box with rounded corners, hence i slice the four corners and used css to change the background color of the rest of the box - so as not to export square items (as css can do this with changing the color only).
The reason i am asking is that we are now in age of DSL and high speed internet so maybe i should have sliced the whole image rather than the four corners?
This is where i get a little confused, of course the way i do it works but is it correct?
I have also noticed some sites are using a "LARGE" background image in there CSS which contains content holders (with square corners) etc... which i think is great, but does the file size / speed suffer
Once i have sliced and exported my images is it better to always put the images in as background images (within divs) rather than images thenselves?

1) I'd like to center certain compotents of my image into sections of the frame. I'm trying to go about this by creating my sections with the slice tool. Then, for any objects within that slice, I select it, but then I'm at a loss. How do I center the objects within my selection, and for that matter, how to I tell it that I want it to be centered in the sliced section only?
2) I'm trying to draw simple lines with the Line Tool, but I get this huge arrow instead of a line. I don't want an arrow, and I only want it to be 1 pixel thick. How can I do this?
