When I hover over the menu commands in Photoshop or Illustrator (both CS2), white rectangles appear behind the Menu Commands and so cluttering the otherwise nice GUI. As I experienced this before on another computer but still have no clue what is going wrong could someone give me a clue what's going on here? I am using Windows XP Service Pack 2.

I have a strange blue line with a white border that isn't part of any layer that won't go away, and its thickness scales with zoom. What is it, what is it used for, and how do I get rid of it?

In other words: every time I erase something, text or drawings, those gray rectangles appear. Is there a way to erase something leaving that part just white, so there I can write or draw whatever is needed?

However, the rectangles have a gray border to them.
How to I draw a Rectangle without it being filled? Makes me a little pissed that its not in any obvious place for me to find, I'm used to older versions of Photoshop.

There is no way of recovering the menu bar, which is still invisibly active, unless CS4 is restarted.
Otherwise CS4 is not working too bad except for the trailing images following window movements, jerky rotate and the fact that Topaz adjust throws out of memory messages unless Photoshop memory is reduced to 700Mb.

Is it possible to modify a rounded rectangles radius in Photoshop but I find this a big time waster as I'll then have to redo all the colors and strokes and all other changes i've made such as perspective and so on.
I was working on a document, with rounded rectangle shapes. I was able to edit them in the properties panel. Photoshop crashed. I restarted Photoshop. After reopening, the document was recovered
But now I can no longer edit the rounded rectangles. The properties panels looks different and the options are gone.What happened?What can I do to bring them back?
Is it possible to adjust the radius of the rounded rectangles after you have placed the rectangle on a layer?
am moving from Fireworks. In fireworks, you had a drag handle to quickly and easily adjust the radius for all or individual corners. I can't seem to find that funtionality in Photoshop.
I have found how to create the rectangles and adjust the radius before I place them in a layer, but not after.
I've been adding English text to an Italian comic. This involves whiting out the original text and then inserting new (translated) text.
I keep encountering the same problem every time I alter a few pages. Namely, the font changes slightly. It does this without my making any changes to the character settings whatsoever. The only way I can correct the problem is to close the program and reopen it. Or, if that fails, which it often does, restart my pc. My OS is Windows XP Pro, by the way.
To illustrate what's happening, I've posted two comic pages. The first shows the font as it should be, the second as it shouldn't. Note the difference in the letter I.
Does anybody know how to stop this occurring?
I've been playing around with PS for over 18 months and I've never had this happen. My cursor changed to cross hairs and will not change back. Even when I pick a brush that should be round like the Clone Stamp Tool, Eraser, Healing brush etc. I thought maybe my Preferences got corrupted and checked there but nada.

In Bridge, I have a portrait orientation shot that I want marked, and I hit "8" for the green label and it changes the orientation to landscape, every time! Huh? CS2 never did that...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've never had this before, but when it happens it refreshes everything every time i interact with photoshop, which makes it very annoying. I made a new canvas, and the suddenly with every brush stroke or click of a button or whatever, the "new document" window pops up with most of its controls missing for a split second, and any drop down menus i recently used quickly appear.
Then the screen all refereshes and it goes away. This happens quickly. I managed to grab a screen shot when it did it though, showing a distorted menu appear quickly. I'm guessing its my video drivers, right?
I mean, its not a huge problem because a simple restart of photoshop sorted it out, and ive never had it happen before, but io thought it best to tell just as a notice if Adobe know anything about what could be causing it. I have the newest video drivers installed which has enabled photoshop to work on dual moniotors with open gl and also had a refresh prefomance increase in certian other areas.
I am having trouble in CS6 with selecting a portion of my photo, with any of the tools- quick-selection, lasso or magnetic lasso.
What happens is that once I have completed my selection, I get strange rectangles of 'marching ants' throughout my selection. These show up as different colours on the layer mask as well. When I first used quick selection it worked properly.
simple way to do this with Photoshop (I have CS)? I need the nine separate jpeg images for the flash version, I understand this example is just one jpeg and is used in the standard html version of a template I have....
Curious is there is way that is automated to do this. I can rotate each section (image) as needed for the spot, but want to take a picture and cut it into equal squares.
I was working in a drawing doing some copying/pasting from marquee selections. Somehow I now have a light blue line stretching horizontally from one side of the screen to the other. It runs out past the canvas of the drawing to the edges of the PS window.
I think it occured while I was switching tools with hotkeys and my computer lagged a little bit. It's like a gridline, but I can't find anyway to delete/turn off/move it. When I make a marquee it seems to snap to it as a boundary.
This line doesn't appear in other drawings, so it's just something that I've done in this particular file.
Have Eizo CE210W Monitor calibrated using Eizo software and a SpyderPro2. In CS3, Bridge, and Camera Raw, the shadow areas in pure grayscale black and white pictures are dark olive green rather than pure black.
This is true for both jpg and RAW. However, the same photo open at the same time in Microsoft Photo Viewer is pure black, no green. Workspace in Photoshop is set to Adobe RGB. Any ideas?
Recently downloaded some images from our ftp server. When I open the files in photoshop - the resolution appears as 299.99 dpi. When a co-worker opens it - the resoltion appears as 72 dpi. Both have the same file size and pixel dimensions.
Any ideas? Just trying to find the "true" resolution. Only difference that we can see is that I am using CS3 - my co-worker is using Photoshop 6.
I recently built a new computer. In getting all my old favorite programs reinstalled I have found that when I am trying to export using the PNG format with alpha well the alpha is quite strange. If I view it in Irfanview it gives this weird effect like there is a background in certain areas, more directly in back of the main image.
Maybe it's Irfanview but no I just checked it out in XNView as well and the same thing.
what's causing this strange exprort bug?? Is there an specific update I need.
The image in jpg is a direct save to that format in Irfanview so you can see what I'm talking about.
Normally I search for my issues in forums, but this one is so specifically strange that I am having trouble finding a solution.
I have an image with 8 visible layers. I am unable to erase or draw on any of them. Erasing does nothing, and drawing comes out pink in various shades no matter what color I choose.
If I create a duplicate layer of ANY of these layers, I can then erase and draw in them. I can hide the original layer. However, if I DELETE the original layer, "Quick Mask" becomes invisible under Channels. If I make "Quick Mask" visible again, I am back to square one on the new duplicate layer, pink colors and no erasing.
If I open preferences, I get a 'ghosted' version of the close, minimize, and
maximize buttons in the top right corner. The 'ghosted' version is on top
and takes focus, the 'real' version doen't work.
how to describe this. Everything turns hot pink color.
This time I have even reinstalled and it still is the same.
I have created a screenshot.
