Questions

Hi.. I took a screenshot of a portion of a spreadsheet (without the grid lines)... black text (antialiased) with white background. I thought I could somehow duplicate this image layer and invert the duplicate (white text on black background) and use that as a transparency mask so a background texture layer could be seen through in the white areas.. ... but I could t figure out how to create the mask/transparencey... I ended up using some other technique.. but want to understand if/how my original idea may be done. Thx in advance... 

Found here - https://www.reddit.com/r/photoshop/comments/1am8pdc/comment/n78cbag/?context=3 Just change the setting from the title/screenshot to "None". For me this makes Photoshop run "like in the olden days" and boot much faster too.No more freezing, lagging, waiting forever for the "Export" dialog to open etc.This is after trying out almost everything else - using or not using OpenCL, adding memory to PC, almost buying a whole new PC etc. I can only guess Photoshop hates having a lot of fonts active on a Windows machine.

I liked it the way it was, and I litterally HATE what did to it. Who decided it would be a good idea to put them in a bunch of folders?   This is what it looks like now...     How can I undo what was done, and get the color swatches back like they were?

The picture is a simple portrait. Right side up with the full face of the model visible. Liquify has detected more confusing faces than this, so any ideas on how I can get it to recognize this one?

Folks,any ideas?I am looking to merge elegantly the sea/lava picutre with the sunset and I am failing at providing a photo realistic result.I tried creating masks using alpha channels (the one attached looking not too bad, created by first using camera raw to accentuate constrast), played with gradients on layer masks etc, pinged ChatGPT extensively.Still, it is not yet convincing.Thoughts on how to proceed? Do I miss something?best,Dan

J'ai tout essayé, je suis même sur le créative cloud mais rien à faire je ne peux ouvrir mon photoshop. Je penseais que c'était parceque j'étais à l'étranger mais non.

I am trying use Web Photoshop, i import high resolution (4300x4300px) photo for template in 1084x610px, but in export is in low detail, why? Online problem only? Thank you for your advice. 

Not all images I save out from PS as an EPS will import into InDesign as grey, but there are times that it does. Not sure what the issue is? So I have artwork with text in PS 2025, save it out as EPS to retain the vector informationand then import the image into InDesign 2025. The image doesn't appear. What shows upis a grey image. Anyone?

The option to use a foreground to transparent gradient in the 'Basics' folder of the gradient tool has disapeared. This is affecting both normal gradients as well as layer masks, making it so I can't make a layer fade out. It was fine until yesterday. The Basics folder in the image below previousy had 3 options, the third being transparent which is now gone.  Re-installed the latest version but still missing. Using Windows 11.  

Hi, please could someone direct me a guide on how to apply the above. i have a headland , so surrounded by water which makes sky replacement not effective. So, I'm looking to select the headland in the initial image (first) layer then apply it to subsequent Milky Way images, from which I'll convert to jpg and make a Timelapse.  I've seen many like this so know it's possible  and should be easy, but as much as I've tried searching, I'm coming up with everything except what I'm trying to do. thanks  I have Photoshop, lightroom, lightroom classic and LRTimelapse (if the latter helps ) 

So, today I loaded up Photoshop to do some art. However, something is wrong. The mouse pointer and tools/menu keep flashing when I go to any menu or try to do things in them. As if something is loading or communicating. It doesn't do it if it is just setting there with nothing open, or if I go to another window/tab on my PC, if I don't have any psd or file loaded. Starting up PS is normal and everything is fine, but once I open a image or PSD it starts. And if I have something open and I come back from another tab once I click on the menus it starts again, even running the mouse over the menus, you can see the mouse pointer start flashing only when highlighting menus, etc.. Think of it as if a key on my keyboard was being held down, or something is loading and the pointer/menu's keeps flashing, that is how it is. Anything I click in menu's etc it flashes there too. But, there is nothing happening on my mouse or keyboard. No keys being clicked on my keyboard, or my m

I have this weird issue whenever I move an object inside the box area at vanishing point. Whenever I'm moving the object, the object will leave messy marks/dots/lines like the picture below. What's with the issue I'm facing below? It's really frustrating the the messy marks remains there when I apply the vanishing point. Thank you. 

Vanishing Point tool is completely unusable even after clearing my settings. I'm able to paste images fine and drag them into the blue grid, but the behavior is unpredictable and broken. 1. The biggest problem is that, after pasting content and moving it in the grid, the content does not align with its bounding box and moving it around is unpredictable.2. After opening the vanishing point tool, the photo is not centered which wouldn't be an issue except the Hand tool does not work, so I'm not able to move the photo aroundIn the screenshot, I'm using PS 2024, but the issue persists in '23 and Beta.  

Is it possible to remove the colors when editing in RAW? There are so many colors that it is impossible to see the image... 

Hi everyone,I'm trying to create a Photoshop script that performs two main tasks, regardless of the initial color mode of the open image (e.g., RGB, CMYK, Grayscale).1. Convert the image to Indexed Color. The specific settings I need are:- Palette: Perceptual (Local Adaptive)- Colors: 1282. Save the resulting color table (also known as the color palette) to a specific destination folder.I've been looking through the Photoshop scripting API but am having trouble finding the exact commands or syntax to achieve this, especially for the "Local Adaptive" option and saving the color table.Could someone please provide a code snippet or point me in the right direction? I'm primarily working with JavaScript (JSX) for this.Any help would be greatly appreciated!Thanks

Gestern habe ich das Update von Photoshop 26.9. installiert, seit dem kann ich keine CR2 Dateien mehr über den RAW Konverter mehr öffnen. Photoshop stürzt ab und zeigt keine Fehlermeldungen an. Einziger Ausweg ist Programmende über den Task-Manager. Ich habe Photoshop deinstalliert und auch ältere Versionen versucht aber der Fehler übeträgt sich anscheinend auf andere Versionen. Ich kann jetzt gar keineCR2 Dateien mehr öffnen, weil der RAW Konverter in jeder Version abstürzt. Ich verwende Window 11.Was kann ich tun?

데스크톱에 작업물을 psd로 저장 한 후 아이패드로 불러와 작업하고 저장하려는데 클라우드 저장만 되고 아이패드에 저장이 되지 않는다는 것을 알았습니다.저는 작업한 결과물을 아이패드에 저장하고 싶습니다. 클라우드로 저장했다가 작업물이 날라갔던 기억도 있으며, 인터넷을 상시 사용할 수 없다보니 아이패드에 저장해서 필요 할 때 마다 작업하고 싶습니다. 

This is hard to explain but I hope someone can help. For years now I've been working on Photoshop using my trackpad with my left hand to move the cursor, and my right hand on my mouse to click and release. Now for some reason when doing this, after i lift my finger off the mouse, the selection stays clicked and wont release until i click my mouse again. This happens in all parts of Photoshop, when airbrushing, changing brush size, in liquify, etc. I've included a video to give an example, I've just updated to the latest version of PS and it didn't fix the issue. I'm on macOS Sequoia 15.6, and tried resetting tools to defualt. Using apple trackpad & mouse as well.

I know how to export to each psd file using the photoshop variables.But I want to know how to replicate artboards with the data in my csv file.

Exporting web assets from a layer or a layer group has been an important part of my everyday workflows. I used to organize hundreds of assets in PSD files and was able to export assets with exact desired sizes with just one click.  To avoid that PS trims transparent pixels, I used a layer mask that defines the desired area to be exported. This workflow keeps assets consistent and allows developers to easily control asset alignments.So why is Photoshop now trimming transparent pixels by default inside the export dialog and why can't this be turned off? Please solve this.

Photoshop Tool Failure and crashing . Tools failing, select tool randomly selects zig zags, pen draws in zig zags, rectangle select locks, and no zoom feature. Adobe's solve is to use a previous stable version of PS, which does not work. Updating graphics driver does not work.The only way to restart PS is to shut down via Task Manager or restart. Rebooting does not solve the problems; any past fixes are temporary.I have had this problem for 10 years, multiple PC builds and PS versions. Running PS 2022. Some days PS is completely unusable.PS 2022PC Windows 11Basic steps to reproduce the problem: Drawing/normal useTools failing, select tool randomly selects zig zags, pen draws in zig zags, rectangle select locks, and no zoom feature.

I am a story illustrator. I was wondering if it is possible to have continuity using Generate image in Photoshop? If so, how do you do it?
