P: Mirror Paint/Symmetric/Seamless Tile Paint Function

Any news in photoshop cc for the symmetry tool ?
Currently,I d loved switch to artrage for the great symmetry tool .. T_T

I use Photoshop alot as painting tool for various purposes,
but what i'm looking for is a mirror-tool:
not simply one that mirrors in the middle of the screen (you can find plugins for that)
but what I'm dying for is a something like the lets say the line tool-

you draw an straight vector line across the canvas and everything gets mirrored along that axis- preferably realtime
(-in fact i think i can't be the only one with such an idea)

This is a simple idea, but one that Photoshop still doesn't have.

A Mirror Brush.

The function:

Select Brush
Command Click, to draw a line.
Now everything you paint on one side of the line is mirrored on the other.

good happy

How about a "Symmetry Tool"? The user specifies boundaries, horizontal line and center line, then Photoshop aligns all paired shapes (using edges?) therein to perfect symmetry.

For instance, I have one eye visibly lower than the other. The Symmetry Tool would handle the work of aligning the eyes in perfect symmetry.

As a painter, I love Corel Painters new symmetry tool. Even ZBrush offers it inside its painting feature, so why doesn't the grandmother of all image editing software do as well? It would be super useful for things like sketching and it would also be a great addition to the liquify filter when trying to come up with concepts for creatures etc.

It's such a basic and important thing. Seamless backgrounds are back in style and can be found almost everywhere on the web again. I still have to do them manually or use 3rd party software. Come on, Adobe. It ́s such a simple thing to do and I don't really need such a fancy shmancy stuff like the "oil painting" filter which does a really bad job of creating an "oil" painting anyway. Are you trying to appeal to rich hobbyists who want to turn photos of their dogs into "oil" paintings? Leave that to the plugin makers and developers of playful photo editing software with names like "Magix". Web developers would surely love a simple seamless tile creation functionality. If you don't give it PS, at least implement it inside Fireworks. It's incredible that a software like Fireworks doesn't support it.

Well, some of the features you might have meant may hardly be relevant to professionals but still are impressive achievements programming-wise.
One CS6 feature that annoys me is »Color Theme« – it seems unnecessary to me and has ruined a formerly good Keyboard Shortcut.

Yup. They are too big now. Slow, unable to be flexible.They do not know what to implement, fix or improve– so they ask the community. However, they listen to all of the non-pro monkeys.

I agree with this suggestion. Photoshop just has parts of it that need to catch up big time. Good suggestion OP.

Not likely they will ever be implemented, Instead we'll get Dazzleing features that impress photohipsters with 1 click button magic tricks.
