P: CS6 Nearest neighbor no longer works properly

Photoshop CS6,
Using windows 64 bit
When image interpolation is set in the preferences to nearest neighbor and also set on the toolbar on top to nearest neighbor my image blurs when using free transforms. This happens when I reduce something more then 70% in RGB color mode. Also the Image was a 2 color neutral image (a jaquard weave).
Thanks,
Frederick

Wow. Well, double thanks, then. Never thought I'd be able to directly address someone who "wrote the tools," as it were. I am genuinely impressed and genuinely grateful, across the spectrum, for everything you and your engineers/programmers have done and continue to do.

You're welcome. And yes, that is why I added it.

I'm not actually working in free transform directly, but you're right — I did NOT check the tool option bar. Thank you for pointing that out, and sorry to be such an idiot! This obviously makes having to go back and forth between the preferences settings so much less cumbersome (which is why, I'm assuming, it was added.)

Thank you again, and my very best wishes,

Chris W.

Ah, it sounds like you are using Free Transform. Did you forget to change the interpolation in the tool options bar?

Just FYI this is the Mac version, 14.1.2, x64 (64 bit?)

Most grateful regards,

Many thanks — Well, I'm seeing it, and I'm running the absolute latest edition, just downloaded 3 days ago.

I've never seen this problem before; it appears to only erupt with scaling and layered or selected image manipulation, not in an individual file resize with interpolation set to "nearest neighbor." In all previous versions of Photoshop I've seen, setting interpolation to nearest neighbor in preferences aliases (as opposed to anti-aliases) all image sizing/manipulation (and concomitantly will anti-alias anything where "bicubic" is selected.) Is there perhaps a new setting with which I'm not familiar?

Again, I have preferences set to "nearest neighbor."

Many thanks!

We haven't seen this at all in Photoshop CC.

Double check the version that you're running, and make sure you have all the updates installed.

Dear Jeanne,

If you're still working there, I'm afraid I can say that Photoshop CC sports this problem once again (i.e. perhaps not fixed in this edition.) Please help!

Very best wishes,

Chris W.
