Photoshop :: Was The Smudge Tool Changed?

Jun 12, 2012

In Photoshop CS5 and under, the smudge tool at 100% Strength would drag pixels without smudging/blurring/mixing, creating this cool painting effect. Customizing the smudge tool with a bit of a textured brush shape and some scattering, with 100% smudging Strength would create this amazing painterly effect, but now in Photoshop CS6 the 100% strength does not work. In fact, it works much worse than 99%.
 
As you can see, at 99% strength, the smudge does less blurring, and more dragging, which is almost as close as Photoshop CS5's 100% smudging strength( it hardly ever blurred or mixed, 100% would only drag in CS5)100% on CS6 does considerably worse dragging, and alot of blurring, and seems to only be a step above 90%, which blurs and mixes more.

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or if this was an intentional edit to the smudging tool. The smudging tool in the past was completely fine, and now I can't use my smudging tool presets because they do not create the same effects they did when I created them back in CS5.

Photoshop :: Smudge Tool On CS6

Oct 8, 2013

I got used to PS CS4 before buying CS6 for my graphism classes and the smudge tool was standing still when using it (Keeping the same shape).
 
Now on CS6, when I use the smudge tool, the brush is changing at every swipes I do. Is there a way to keep it like in CS4 ?

Photoshop :: Freezing/ Smudge Tool

Sep 3, 2008

Whenever I use the smudge tool, PS freezes and I have to close it. This is ONLY when I smudge. When I do anything else the program runs fine.

Then after it freezes a couple times, when I try to reopen it, I get a system error message saying there's a hardware problem and I can't fix the error . . .

but the next day I open PS and it runs fine! Only everything has been reset as if I just installed the program for the first time! Then I'll start working on a picture and as soon as I smudge it freezes.

my computer runs on 1.66Ghz, 1.99 GB of Ram. Is this a problem?

Photoshop :: Smudge Tool - Black Background

Feb 25, 2005

I've recently switched to a new computer but am still using PS 6.0 with all setting the same (I think). Formerly the smudge tool removed color from the working layer revealing the layer below (i.e., the working layer was transparent to the layer below). Now, when I use the smudge tool, black is revealed under any color removed with the smudge tool.

Photoshop :: Smudge Tool Judder Problem

Jun 7, 2004

I'm trying to paint some white hair on a picture I'm doing at the moment. I've created a custom brush that is just hard random pixels on a 10x10 block. There are no dynamics switched on in the brush engine and spacing is set at 1%.

I'm using this brush, as is my want, with the Smudge tool. Unfortunately it seems to have aquired a 'judder' It's hard o explain but it's totally annoying I want it to be smooth. Here's a screen grab so you can see what I mean.

Photoshop :: Smudge Tool Stuck On (finger Painting)?

Mar 13, 2012

I was coloring skin textures on a drawing using a spatter brush with flow at 25%.  Then i switched over to the blur tool to smooth it out.  it was ok.. but not quite what i was looking for, so i switched to the smudge tool.  Using that tool with the "sample all layers" box checked, made it look really nice-- so i drew some freckles on the face and the smudge tool really blended them into the skin without making them look blotchy.
 
So here's the problem:  I clicked on the "finger paint" box to see what other effect it would give but it seemed to pick the foreground colors and smear it across the drawing.  I didn't like it so i unchecked the box.  it was still smearing across the drawing.  so i checked and unchecked again... nothing.  I searched the internet and all i could find was if any weird behavior arises and persists, restart Photoshop, and while its booting up, hold Ctrl, Alt & Shift to clean out the Preferences.  So i did.  Same thing.
 
How to get this tool to function as it was initially.  The smudge tool seems to be 'stuck' on the "finger paint" option or feature no matter if the box is checked or unchecked.

GIMP :: Smudge Tool Is Not Working

Nov 10, 2008

When I try to use the smudge tool in gimp (2.6.2). I click on it and I try to smudge the image. But gimp seems to ignore the tool. So I decided to play with the Opacity, Rate and even the scale. No luck.

So then I thought, ok maybe the changes are to small for me to see. So I decided to zoom all the way in and try the smudge tool. No change at all.

The odd thing is it is a single layer image. I just tried an experiment, I opened the photo I wanted to smudge with clicked on the tool and tried blending the area. Then I closed it, it didn't ask me if i wanted to save the "changes" I just made.

The smudge tool does not have an circular with an line across it saying I cant use it. Here is the image I am trying to fix up .

AutoCAD Inventor :: IFeature Punch Tool Name When Feature Name Has Changed

Mar 19, 2013

My company is trying to put some automation together to pull design attributes of parts and assemblies to drive routing creation in the shop. 

The issue that we have run into is that for certain ifeatures, we need to gain access to the name (or punch ID) of an ifeature (primarily punch tools).  Pulling the name of the feature that the tool created is relatively easy, but because you are able to change the name of the feature as it appears in the model browser, it isn't the most reliable way to get that information.

We are looking for a way to figure out what the name of the ifeature used to create the feature without referencing the resulting feature's name in the model tree.

I've included an example, and I'm looking for the name of the tool which should be "Ob_750X562".

Photoshop :: Correct Lint/smudge Defect In An Image

Dec 18, 2004

took thousands of photos. Unfortunately a piece of lint got caught on the inner lens of my camera and caused a smudge/lint line to appear about 1/4 of the photos I took. Its relatively easy to pshop out the smudge mark when the defect area is a solid, or nearly uniform area such as sky (clone or bandaid tool, etc). But when it gets into something more complex, such as buildings or otherwise, its going to need a little more manipulation. I am curious to see how members of this community would fix this. I've attached a rather tame image so as to demonstrate the problem. You can see the obvious anomaly in the upper 1/3 of the right margin.
