I am in update hell between adobe and windows. I am fully updated everywhere, all hardware is new and functioning perfectly elsewhere.It is just doing the same filtering layer I've done in my workflow for years. No AI is involved, ACR just stops responding after a few gradient masks. I have spent more time trouble shooting adobe issues in the last six months than I have actually using the products.Do they not realize professionals use their software and need reliability?
I want to make eye-catching thumbnails for my cricket mobile game feature images/thumbnails for my gaming website using Photoshop. What are the best tips for realistic player graphics and action effects?
When you create a shape with the Shape tool, all its properties appear in the Properties panel.However, when you create a Shape Path with the pen tool, the only properties that show are Mask “Density” and “Feather”.I realize that the properties like Fill and Stroke are nestled in the top menu bar, but this seems very inconsistent with Shape Paths, which are essentially the same as Shapes.I would like be able to see all the properties that appear in the Properties panel, including Appearance (Fill, Stroke), Pathfinder, and Shape Properties.
Hi expertsI am writing a adobe photoshop script where I can select the folder name from the dialog window and the script will open the very first image from that folder. I will edit the picture and only when I save and close the image, the second image will be opened. And the same thing will continue. So the script will open only one image at a time. How this is possible?I was doing with many experiments and the current code is like this.var imageFolder = new Folder("C:/Nirmalya/Photo/"); function filter(file) { return (file instanceof File && /\.(jpg)$/i.test(file.name)) } var fileList = imageFolder.getFiles(filter); if (fileList.length > 0) { //Sort the fileList fileList.sort(function (a, b) { if (app.compareWithNumbers) { return app.compareWithNumbers(a.name, b.name); } else { return sortAlphaNum(a.name, b.name); } }); loop: for (var index1 = 0; index1 < fileList.length; index1++) { if (doc
Add the ability to paint brush strokes as lines, like in Fresco. When you draw a stroke in Fresco and hold at the end, a perfect line is drawn using your current brush. The only way to accomplish this now in Photoshop is to either Shift-tap (which draws a line from your starting point but with no indication like a rubber band) or to create a path then stroke the path with your brush. Both of these methods are outdated and cumbersome. The Fresco method is much easier and modern.
Hello, after a friend told me their pen pressure is no longer working in Photoshop 26.2 I have experimentally upgraded as well (from 25.12.01) and am experiencing the same issue. I don't think it even registers that I'm using a pen, because the brush previews also show no pressue. I have WinInk turned off and suspect this is the issue. Is Adobee dropping support for WinTab? I see nothing about this in the release notes!
when using the Liquify filter, there is a possibility that a separate layer is created for this. I always make a copy of the original layer first.
Version 27.00 after upgrade, "Remove Background" button. after click process, an error pops up showing that the background could not be found for removal. still works on vs 26.11 (this version can not upscale an image) I have tried multiple images and same error.
I have a high end pc without any issues, only my photoshop is way to laggy.

I'm using a high resolution monitor(2560x1600). As a result, all the the toolbar fonts and menu fonts are small and hard to see. I do not want to lower the screen resolution as this would defeat the purpose of this monitor.. Will the new CS6 have the ability to increase font sizes to accommidate Hi-Res monitors? Thanks Ron Acevedo
Photoshop’s Timeline has significant potential as a lightweight animation and compositing environment. Many professionals use it for: Frame-based animation Asset preparation for video editing Hybrid pipelines (Premiere / FCP / After Effects) Game and motion asset production However, Timeline development appears stagnant, and UXP currently does not provide sufficient API access to support serious animation workflows. Ideally, we would like to see Timeline itself strengthened and modernized. But even before that, we urgently need official Timeline / Animation API support in UXP. Why this matters Photoshop is transitioning toward UXP-only extensibility.However, UXP currently cannot replace JSX for Timeline automation. Missing capabilities include: Reliable playhead control Frame-accurate timing control Document duration access Frame rate access Stable batch frame adjustment Exposure of Timeline menu commands This creates a serious migration blocker. Studios and ind
I cannot get Ps to override the Scaling whether I choose System or Application. This is a screenshot where I've chosen System. When I open a menu in Ps the font is a decent size but everything else is super tiny, despite having chosen 200% UI Scaling and Large font size. Anyone have a solution?

Since about version 26, the behaviour for using a graphics tablet has changed. It used to be that you could still erase using the back of the pen regardless of whatever tool you were using. Since version 26 and continuing to this day if you have the select tool enabled you are unable to erase. Using the back of the pen just draws selection boxes as if you were using the front tip.Is this a deliberate change – in which case where can I turn it off – or is it a bug?
I’m trying to select small areas and I feel like I don’t really know which part of the magic wand tool is the action bit. It has a rounded tip, so I’m guessing it would be the tip of the tip. I have to estimate where that is visually.. it’s a bit harder on a rounded tip compared to an arrow. But then, is it the black line of the tool? Or is it the tip of the white outline around the black tool? Or would it be one pixel just OUTSIDE of the white outline? But there’s also three stars floating around it. By doing some testing, I’m fairly certain that the stars aren’t the sensitive part of the tool. It seems to be closer to the wand portion. It would be great if this tool had a more intuitive, less ambiguous design. Which exact pixel is the action bit?
Hi all, Without seeking to portray myself as an idiot, I would ask that someone, if possible, would try to explain a possible course of action as simply as possible, as I am not the most technically-minded in relation to computers and software. I know enough to get by unless there are problems.So, for weeks now, I have had issues whereby I would be able to open a few RAW files on Photoshop 2026, and edit them, only for this to then stop working without warning, opening as a background process but not such that I can do anything. I uninstalled the program and downloaded it from Creative Cloud, and that fix seemed to work for a while, but now I have hit an issue whereby any attempt to open the app, either by selecting it to open a file in or just opening it directly first, generates an error report, and the app is unable to open.I've twice handed over control of my laptop to Adobe customer service staff, and I do trust their integrity not to take advantage of this act of trust, but I
I would like to have the option that the window-frame in which my image is opened is resized according to the monitor -or- stays at the resized size. See attached image Left = current behavior, requested behavior on the Right.What would be helpful if the last used size gets remembered because now I have to resize my window for every newly opened image.(I know this exists when using the app in Application-frame-mode but that option has disadvantages in my perspective because I can't see through to any app in the background to click on that to switch apps or go to the Finder in an instant).
Hello Adobe Photoshop Team,I would like to suggest a feature that would greatly improve layout flexibility and workflow efficiency in Photoshop — a toggleable pasteboard (workspace) outside the canvas.Currently, Photoshop is strictly canvas-based, which makes it difficult to temporarily store or position elements outside the visible design area. In page-layout applications like Microsoft Publisher and Adobe InDesign, users can place objects in a surrounding workspace (pasteboard) outside the page. This makes arranging assets, testing variations, and managing complex compositions much easier.Suggested feature:A simple toggle option (e.g., View → Show Pasteboard) that enables a visible, usable workspace surrounding the canvas where objects can be placed freely without expanding the canvas size.Benefits: Faster layout experimentation and asset management Cleaner canvas without needing oversized documents More intuitive workflow for designers working across Adobe apps Better support
While I don't really use the 3D tools in PS, the Lighting Effects is very useful and important to me. I use this to create a light on my subjects in portraits. I really hope that this tool would not be removed from future PS.
I’m using bracketed images (architectural photography) - one on top of the other in the form of layers > generate layer mask > in order to reveal detail from the image underneath I have always used a radial gradient to start slowing working in detail through that layer mask. All of a sudden, it has glitched and if I move that radial gradient around it actually starts stacking and the opacity control no longer have an effect (it is from black to transparent)
hey all, I'm after a downloadable link for my Adobe creative suite 6 master collection; i have the product key however my computer doesn't have a CD thingy. Thank you
The “select people” is great, it’s amazing, because you can automate the selection of clothes, shoes, accessories and things like that… However, it only works if PS finds a face first…Sometimes, users need to use that tool but the photo is cropped and not showing a face, so it won’t detect any face, therefore not showing those options, “but they’re there”…People consider allowing us to select those things even if Photoshop didn’t detect a face first
I am noticing lately that many posts/threads that I follow on the Adobe Community website (Photoshop, Indesign, Illustrator ecosystems) have been removed. When I click on a link from Google or from an email I’ve received from Adobe regarding a new post to a topic I follow, it just sends me to this Welcome page (https://community.adobe.com/community#M131238) and there is no way to access the thread. Why is Adobe removing community posts, isn’t the purpose of this site to help and get help from other users? This thread in general is one that I am following, as it is a recent Ps bug that has not yet been fixed, and the link just goes to the welcome page: https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.adobe.com%2Ft5%2Fphotoshop-ecosystem-bugs%2Fp-ps-27-1-launch-error-could-not-apply-the-saved-panel-configuration-resetting-to-default%2Fidc-p%2F15662958%23M131238&data=05%7C02%7CTLANGSTON%40BJMWEB.COM%7Cdaa3bf90065544cbdfc708de5372224f%7Cda061965b74247039a5df3
In full screen mode > and when image is fit to screen > and you go to crop the image. If you drag the crop tool a little bit too far, the image flies off screen, out of sight, in the opposite direction. same with the selection tool. If you drag any tool a little bit off screen it pushes the image off screen in the opposite direction. This has always been driving me crazy. In earlier versions of photoshop (1990s) the image did not go off screen. Is there a way to lock the image position or prevent photoshop from being able to send it out of sight?
Hello, I just downloaded Adobe Photoshop 2021, was working on a photo, successfully, and now I don’t know how to save my file or how to give it a new name. Can anybody help?
