Scrubby zoom selectivly greyed out

[ryani52057397]

When using two windows scrub zoom is only available for one of them. (Likley not a problem with OpenGL)

Using OS windows 7, Version cs6 photoshop.

Thankyou very much guys, I'm glad it helped! It took much frowning at my computer and calling it names to figure out so hopefully it saved you from that infuriating process!

ps. Shortly after this I actually got a new much better gpu and yikes, if you can upgrade your gpu (and your other pc components can handle it) DO IT, the photoshop speed increase was dramatic for me at least.

you fixed my problem and also made me realize that if i import too many photos at a time it excludes that option too.

You've changed my life! I've been thinking about fixing this for years and only now been so frustrated with it to search for answers. Worked a treat. Thanks for your fix.
I wonder if this improves other things as a by-product.

Recent laptops' CPU (both Intel & AMD) has a built-in discrete GPU, which is a very weak GPU. If that is the only GPU your laptop has, then scrubby zoom won't work. Workstation laptops have both discrete and a dedicated GPU. In order to use scrubby zoom, you must disable discrete GPU option in your laptop's bios setup.

Been dealing with scrubby zoom greyed out for a while, but I finally got fed up with it and went through all of these answers. Turns out what worked for me is letting Photoshop use 80% instead of 70% of my RAM. Depending on how your computer is/what all you run while you work (I do Youtube on Mozilla and Photoshop, and that's it), this is another potential fix.
