Am trying to cut out an item in Photoshop and when I go to use the pen tool and begin the path instead of getting a joined up line I just get separate anchor point and no path is being created. I tthink I've hit something by accident as a couple of days ago it was working fine. Any advice much apprecaited!

Maintain a Work Path then working on named Paths should work.

    This is not a solution if you have more than one path and you need it on a differnt layer though.

    And again: Maintain a Work Path then you can work on as many named Paths as you like (with the limitation of the number of Paths in general). 


    Yes, I know the workaround, it is also in my former explanation of the problem, but I'd like to get it fixed because the fact that I cannot edit a previously named path is a big limitation for my workflow.

    Hiya,

     

    You could try ressting your tool pen. Please see attached as to how.

     

    Let me know how you get on!
