I was working on a PS project, no problem, then all of the sudden I couldn't use Free Transform anymore, in the Edit tab all of the stuff by Free Tranform is faded...  Any idea on how to correct this?

Can you post a screenshot of the layers panel showing the problem?

Hi there,

 

That shouldn't be happening as the Free transform tool is not working in Photoshop.

 

  • Which version of Photoshop are you using?
  • Is a Selection active?

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Thanks,

Akash

I'm pretty sure it's the newest version, because I downloaded it last night(got a new laptop).  Yeah, the selection is active.  I'm working on a project with a lot of layers.  All of the transform stuff works like normal on a project with one layer.  I haven't done much for trouble shooting, other than posting about it on here, and tinkering with it some.  I would really appreciate any help you can offer.  Thanks!
