A big thank you to everyone who took part in our last ‘Off the cuff’ challenge. Also thanks for your patience in waiting for the new challenge, whilst the image upload functionality was restored.The SFTW challenges last two weeks and this one covers Halloween. I couldn’t let that pass without having a bit of fun. I rendered this scene in Blender 3D using models from Adobe 3D Assets which I textured in Adobe Substance Painter. After rendering I finished the image in Photoshop. So we have a haunted house. What will you produce with it, to fit this week’s scary theme.The “rules”:Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry. Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc. Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”. The challenge is not limited to Photoshop. Any Adobe software can be used. There are no prizes apart from the chance to prac
Turn creative ideas into editable image transformations using AI. With Prompt to edit, you can describe changes using natural language and generate image-wide edits in seconds. Use Markup and Marks to guide the AI toward specific areas of an image, add instructions, or indicate where new elements should appear. How This Workflow Works Start by generating an image edit using a text prompt. If needed, use markup tools to indicate specific areas and describe the changes you want. Step-by-Step Guide 1. Open an image Select File > Open and choose the image you want to edit. 2. Generate an edit with Prompt to edit Select a pixel layer or generative layer containing the image. If you're working with a generative layer, make sure the entire image is selected. Select Prompt to edit from the Contextual Task Bar, or choose Edit > Prompt to Edit. Enter a prompt describing the changes you'd like to make across the image. Sample prompts: Change the lighting to a warm sunset tone. Improve
This amazed the heck out of me, so I have to share. My wife is President of a local Garden Club and asked me to help create a poster for an event. Because she has never used Generative AI, she was not encumbered with thoughts that limited what you might reasonably ask of it, so she gave me this completely (I thought) OTT prompt to paste in its entirety into the Prompt to Edit text field:Create a premium A4 Christmas Lunch invitation for the Awatere Garden Club. Surround the entire invitation with a lush, realistic floral border dominated by bright red New Zealand pōhutukawa flowers, silver fern fronds, kawakawa leaves, mānuka foliage, native greenery and a few hydrangeas and roses. The border should be abundant and elegant with no empty corners. Add subtle gardening elements at the bottom including a vintage watering can, garden trowel and gardening gloves. Centre panel in warm cream parchment with sophisticated typography in deep green and Christmas red. High-quality print-ready de
Ever Feel Like You’ve Painted Yourself Into a Corner? Sometimes in Photoshop, the shape of your brush makes a simple cleanup harder than it needs to be. A round tip is useful for curved edges and soft transitions, but its curved outline can leave a gap where two straight edges meet.A square brush gives you straight sides and defined corners that you can align with your subject. In this guide, we’ll find a square brush, rotate its tip, draw straight strokes, and combine it with layer masks and selections for precise cleanup.Note: A square tip fits a right-angle corner when it is aligned correctly. For an acute angle or an irregular edge, use a smaller tip and a selection to protect the surrounding area Get the BrushStart with a simple square tip in Photoshop on desktop. Use a temporary empty pixel layer to test the brush before working on your image or mask.Select the Brush Tool in the Tools panel, or press B. If another tool in that group is active, choose Brush Tool from the group. Ch

Let’s Create Some Grass Brush Details Using Adobe Photoshop!The Grass brush in Photoshop can be used to effectively add grass details to a composition in a randomized - yet controlled - way. We'll discover how to access the Grass brush - which can be a major stumbling block for designers unfamiliar with this brush. We'll also examine the peculiar features of this brush through an examination of Brush Settings. Finally, we'll go ahead and use the Grass brush to add details to a photographic composition to make the scene appear to be more overgrown and unkempt. How to Create this Detail in Photoshop: Loading the Legacy Brushes CollectionThe first item that needs to be addressed is the location of the Grass brush. If you are looking for it within your pre-installed brush collections… you likely will have a hard time finding it - as it is considered a Legacy Brush and that collection of brushes must be loaded first, before you can access the brush.In Photoshop, select the Brush tool and o

Ever wish you could change the mood, season, lighting, or even the action in a photo without diving into layers, masks, and complex edits? With Prompt to Edit in Adobe Photoshop, you can make powerful image-wide changes using simple natural language. Just tell Photoshop what you want to see, and AI helps bring it to life. What Is Prompt to Edit? Prompt to Edit lets you transform an entire image using a text prompt.

Please, master, study this code again.I still think this transition is a bit time-consuming. I want to use a script to open an image and display it at 70% of the screen size.But I found that every time the image is opened, it is displayed at 100% screen size and then switched to 70% size, with a transition in between that takes about 1 second, which is a bit uncomfortable.May I ask if it is possible to display it directly at 70% screen size after opening it? Also, there is a problem:when I call this script from Indesign, I often get an error saying that my monitor doesn't have space to park images?I have searched for solutions:Cancel the tab to open the document (I think this is inconvenient and not adopted);Reset workspace. I have tried, but problems still arise. /** Zoom to 46 % of Fit On Screen Zoom Stephen Marsh https://community.adobe.com/questions-712/can-this-script-be-modified-to-fit-46-of-the-screen-1560318 **/ //#target photoshop // F
27.11’s marquee tool keeps switching to subtractive mode and not switching back. This was pretty confusing the first time it happened. I finally found a consistent repro:Drag a marquee normally (in normal mode). Hold alt, which temporarily activates subtractive mode when a marquee is already active, and drag a marquee completely enclosing the first marquee. This will completely deselect the marquee. Release the alt key. The marquee mode doesn’t return to normal.The temporary subtract mode isn’t deactivated when alt is released if the drag completely deselects the current marquee.
I’ve come across this before but it was not a big deal and I ignored it. Today it would useful if I could use the same text box multiple times. I would like to be able to control how the Dynamic Text is going to look, so I’d like to turn the copied Dynamic Text layer back to an old fashioned text box. I have seen a reference to using the Escape key, but that is not working for me. I’d also like to adjust the line spacing to give that ‘y’ descender more space, but I am not working out how to do that. [EDIT] If it makes a difference, I nearly always use the beta version
I am a beginner. How can I change this in order to see the text?
I don’t have any other details to report. The error message always appears after the program has apparently closed, which is rather strange. I have not suffered any lost work. It is concerning, though, since I don’t really know what is going on. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
Illustrator and InDesign have supported this OpenType feature for many years, but Photoshop has not. This is very annoying for us type designers, because this limits our work, it also makes the user experience inconsistent among these 3 important Adobe softwares.

Hi everyone, I would like to report this explicitly as a bug report, and I kindly ask that it not be converted into a question. The behavior is reproducible in my setup and, from my point of view, affects WinTab support in Photoshop 27.6. After updating to Photoshop 27.6, WinTab still no longer works reliably. I need WinTab because pen input is much smoother and more precise with it, especially when working with sliders, numeric input fields, and Photoshop UI controls in general. Reproducible behavior With WinTab enabled, Photoshop 27.6 freezes as soon as I move the brush size slider. Important detail:The freeze happens even when I move the slider with the mouse, not with the Wacom pen.To me, this strongly suggests that this is not simply a Wacom pen issue, but a problem in Photoshop’s WinTab handling itself. Test results in Photoshop 27.6 WinTab enabledopened a new test document selected the Brush tool moved the brush size slider using only the mouse Photoshop freezes immediately afte
Dear Adobe Firefly Support Team,My name is Vladimir, and I am a professional photographer and retoucher.I work with the latest version of Adobe Photoshop, actively using its built-in Firefly features for background replacement, Generative Fill and Expand, with the 2026 model. These are standard Adobe Firefly features within Photoshop; I am not using any third-party generative AI models.Today, my workflow was abruptly blocked by the following message:"Slow down. We can't wait to generate more content for you. You can try again in a few hours."My typical pace is around 2 to 3 generations per 10 minutes, which represents a natural, manual retouching cycle per image.Could you please clarify what triggered this rate limit? As an active subscriber and professional contributor, having to pause my work for several hours during normal business hours severely disrupts my daily operations.How can I avoid these blocks moving forward? Is there a way to lift or adjust this limit for professional pro
I pay for generative credits that work into my photo editing workflow. Today out of nowhere I received this message and I could not use the generative tools: “Slow down. We can't wait to generate more content for you. You can try again in a few hours”This was after using it maybe twice in a 30 minute period. WHAT GIVES? I have used it as a normal part of editing in way more frequet ways than today. Why do I have to put work on hold?! If I’m paying for these credits but they need to be used at a certain “pace”, what is the PACE? Shouldn’t we be given that info instead of just being locked out seemingly at random?!Very frustrated about this.
Não consigo usar a IA generativa no photoshop, aparece a seguite mensagem:Alguem pode me ajudar a resolver isso?
So, apparently Adobe has begun adding metadata to images that says they were made with AI (or at the very least, that AI was used) if you used Gen Fill at all. I realized this because some websites, such as Instagram, have begun automatically labeling any images I had used Gen Fill on as "Made with AI" based on the metadata Photoshop had added, without the option for me to remove the label.I use Gen Fill to expand backgrounds a bit when I need to change the aspect ratio of an image (4x5 from a 2x3 for Instagram), or to more quickly and easily remove an unwanted object or blemish in photo I took and spent a lot of time and effort taking. I don't use it to create entirely made-up backgrounds or people. If I'd known my long hours setting up photo shoots, purchasing supplies, props, and more would all be given the label of "Made with AI" making my clients and other people think I'm just generating my photography, I would never have used Gen Fill in the first place. To me it's just bee
Let’s Explore Texture Brushes in Adobe Photoshop!Designing with texture brushes in Photoshop can produce a lot of interesting textures in your compositions. Of course, knowing how to adjust the application of these brushes and best apply them to your subject can take some additional know-how rather than simply laying down texture all over the place… and what should we keep in mind as we create our texture brush and adjust its settings? We're going to have a quick look at all these considerations when using texture brushes. How to Design with Texture Brushes in Photoshop: Create a Texture BrushFirst, we'll need to access the Brush tool and create a texture brush through the Brush Settings panel.In Photoshop, select the Brush tool and open the Brushes panel - you can find that under Window > Brushes. In the Brushes panel, twirl open the General Brushes set and select the Soft Round brush preset. Open the Brush Settings panel by choosing Window > Brush Settings from the applicati
Hi everyone,I work with mockup templates daily, and since around October 5, 2026, every time I double-click a Smart Object layer to edit it, Photoshop keeps showing this error:"Select the Mockup base layer and try again."The problem is that the layer is already selected, as you can see in the screenshot.If it happened occasionally, I wouldn't mind, but it's happening constantly, and it's getting really frustrating. I rely heavily on shortcuts to speed up my workflow, and this keeps interrupting it.Has anyone else been experiencing this since early October? Could a Photoshop update have caused this issue?Has anyone found a fix?
