    align function missing

    I am using CS 5 and used to have an align button but can no longer find it. I did a full reset but made no difference. As I recall it worked with the brush tool and seemed to have a little sensor about 1/4 inch away from the brush that detected the brightness level at the sensor location then...

    Difficult selection

    Is there a fairly easy way to select just one color from a lot of clutter like sky through leaves and limbs or skin through fish net? I have been using the magic wand after choosing discontiguous but that is not as accurate as I want. I am using CS5.

    polygonal lasso tool misbehaving

    Apparently I did not make it clear; I know how it is supposed to work and it did work correctly for years but now when I get near the starting point and double click I have to be exactly on the starting point or the selection is not completed and, as I said, I often have great difficulty seeing...

    polygonal lasso tool misbehaving

    I'm using Ps Cs 5 in Win 7 Pro and lately I have been having problems with the polygonal lasso tool completing the selection if I don't click exactly at the beginning of the selection. I reset the tool but that didn't help. It's so aggravating because I often can't see exactly where I started...

    Color Replacement Tool

    I am using PS CS 5 and would like to know why the color replacement tool will not work on some images. I can't give any specific examples of when I have not been able to get it to do anything. I also often get a situation of not liking the first color that is replaced but no matter what...

    tool tip getting in my way.

    Thanks to Mr. Tom and Fred Fish for your replies. I was not aware of either of those work arounds.

    tool tip getting in my way.

    I am using CS5 in Win 7 Pro and am having trouble with a tool tip popping up telling me the name of the photo I'm working on when I try to click the X to close the photo. That pop up then blocks the close function until I trick it out of the way. I don't want to completely turn off tool tips...

    graphics card for CS5

    I use CS5 on a Win 7 Pro 64 bit machine that has built in GPU and graphics is the slowest item on my performance scores. The scores don't excite me much, but fairly often when I'm doing photo editing there is a very noticeable lag in graphics keeping up with my brushes, so I have been thinking...

    brush outline trouble

    I'm using CS5 in Win 7 Pro 64 bit and I'm having trouble with the outlines of brushes changing color. Some of the time the outline is a bright white, which is what I want, but it frequently changes to a light gray which I have great difficulty seeing. This is a rapid change as the position of...

    Tool Tip Problem

    I am using PS CS5 with Win 7 Pro and am having a longstanding problem with a tooltip popping up when I try to click the X to close an image. This is senseless because the stupid thing is giving me the same information that is already there and it blocks the attempt to click the X. I don't want...

    CS5 not keeping preferences

    For a few weeks now CS 5 is losing my preferences every time it is shut down. I used it for years without that problem and have no idea why it won't keep them now.

    highly restrict color adjustment

    I have a photo with numerous strips of nearly washed out skin tones and some very dark shadowed ones. Having no luck trying to darken the light and lighten the dark so it presents natural gradients. In fact I can't get those areas to gradually transition at all. They become uniformly too dark or...

    Flipping

    This is a collective "Thank You" to all who have replied to this thread. I have finally understood how to get it done.

    Flipping

    ibclare, I don't have a specific image I'm having a problem with right now but maybe I can explain it: Let's say I'm trying to grow hair on a bald spot on a head. Unless I can manipulate the orientation of the clone stamp the hair probably won't be laying the right direction when I stamp it in...

    Flipping

    Hey Hawkeye, Your reply sounded good until I tried it. I guess I'm dumb but I still can't get it to work. Can you give me a step by step? I brought up the clone source dialog but can't get any flipping; can't find any buttons for flipping of layer or clone stamp. Can it be you aren't using CS5?
