Hi,

I just bought a 15.6" Asus Q500A touchscreen laptop with Windows 8. I downloaded photoshop and the 'touch app plug-ins' through the Adobe Application Manager for creative cloud. When I open a file in PS and select the brush(or any other) tool if I use the touch screen to drag it accross the canvas nothing happens. It still works with my mouse though.

How can I get this to work properly?

Hello!

The touch apps plug-ins are used to allow the communication between Photoshop and the Touch applications that work on an ipad: http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-touch/faq.html#cloud

Thanks for the response, but that doesn't answer my question.

>Fingers lack features that are required for communicating with Photoshop

Brush engine.

Baloney. Fingers have exactly the same features as the mice that have been

on computers Photoshop v01.

Will you please post a picture of your fingers that have those button features. Are they implants? How do they communicate with your computer. How many buttons a wheel does it have tilt left and right?
