Hi, I am a web designer and I am trying to find a way forward in using Photoshop CC on my Macbook Pro (late 2013). I have found posts that say you can open photoshop CS6 in "Low Resolution" however I cannot find the same option in Photoshop CC. Zooming my design comps by 200% surely is not the answer.

Thanks for any advice anyone can give.

Hello, you need to go to the applications folder, and right-click on Photoshop's app icon and select Get info, you will get the relevant checkbox: http://blogs.adobe.com/jkost/2013/01/viewing-photoshop-cs6-in-low-resolution-on-a-retina-display.html

Hi there

I am still have an issue displaying sharp images in photoshop while running PhotoShop CC low-res. Everything still seems very pixelated when viewing 100%.

It's strange because when viewing it 100% in photoshop its blurry, but when savingthat exact file for web (say as a jpeg) and uploading it to a website, there is no fuzziness or blurriness to the image… is chrome/safari rendering rasterized files differently to photoshop?

Any further tips?

I also forgot to mention that the display resolution for my 15 inch MBP retina is set to 'More Space' - I assume that utilises the entire display being 2880 x 1800

Both images are scaled, or not? Are they a capture of the same window? Is the orange circle a vector path? Is it a PSD document that you have? It looks like the one from the left is blurred, maybe downsampled, then re-upsampled.
