Can't click drop-down lists in curves adjustment layer

Odd behavior in released x64 version of CS6 for Windows: on my laptop (ASUS G73S with 1.5 gb nVidia GeForce video), when I crop an image, the drop-down menus in a curves adjustment layer become unclickable. But I can still access the RGB channels using the Alt + 3, 4 and 5 shortcuts. This behavior doesn't occur on my workstation, and if I don't crop the image, the drop-down menus work fine. I have the crop tool set to delete pixels. Also, if I apply curves directly (not with an adjustment layer), the dialog box works OK. And the other adjustment layers seem to be working, too. It's only the curves layer that's doing this.
Any ideas what this could be? I'm wondering if I should report it as a bug.

I've noticed that a few times on windows 8 32 bit, photoshop cs6 32 bit with 4gb of ram, a nVidia 8400 gs graphics card and open gl seems to work fine.
I guess that's probably some kind of glitch.
One way to get back the dropdown is to click on the Curves Display Options in the flyout menu and then just click OK in the dialog.
Added: It doesn't seem to happen if the crop tool is set to Classic Mode.

  • Downloaded brushes not showing on right click drop-down list

    I have recently reinstalled Photoshop cs5.1 and ran into a problem. My installed brushes are not showing up on my right click drop-down list. I took the old brushes and copied the folder to the new location. When I go to use these brushes there used to be a big drop down list when I right click anywhere on the canvas. It now only shows the basic brushes, but here is the thing though I can load and see them through the preset manager but they are not on my drop-down list like they were before I reinstalled.
    I have noticed something odd as well this may help in the solution I have noticed that some files from Photoshop are saved on to my second hard drive, but I do not know if this is the cause.
    The reason I reinstalled is my GPU acceleration wasn't working and had to reinstall to fix this. If any other information is needed I would be glad to share. This is just cutting into my workflow time since I have to load every single brush singlely and if I load them all I have to search through every single brush to find what I need.
    Thank you!

    I found a solution to my problem it may help others! I run Windows 7 64-bit this has two seperate folders for applications when installed. I did a windows search for one of the names of the available brushes on my right click list. The search showed me where the brushes were at. (Example: I searched in windows: DP Brushes) Aparently photoshop normally installs as a "32-bit" program in this location, C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe PhotoShop CS5.1\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 (64 Bit)\Presets\Brushes it is here that I copied my new brushes to and it showed up again. Hope this helps anyone who was in my situation!

  • I can't get photoshop to record a curve adjustment layer preset.

    I am trying to record an action on a colleague's machine that has a custom curve setting but cant seem to get it to stick as a playable action step. He has one of the new trashcans (Mac Pro) with a system version of 10.9.4 and photoshop version of 2014.2.2. I am able to do it on my machine by recording the addition of the curve adjustment layer then selecting a pre-created curve preset. I am running Photoshop 2014.0.0. This does not work on his machine....quite maddening. Any ideas?

    Did you set up the custom setting as a preset on all machines  that will be using the action the loads the curves preset?
    How did you record the Levels adjustment?
    Did you add an adjustment layer or just use levels?
    If you  added an adjustment layer two step are recorded in newer versions of Photoshop.  First step add the adjustment layer the second step setsl adjustment settings.  The recording of the adjustment setting is delayed till  you commit the adjustment  by doing the next action step.  How the add adjustment layer plays back can vary for Adobe introduced bugs in CS4 adding the Adjustment Panel they included two option that can change how Photoshop operates. And Actions and Scripts can not control or access these options.

  • Firefox 3 used to have a drop down list under the back button for recent pages. How do I get this in FF4?

    FF3 used to have a drop down list of the most recent pages that a tab had displayed under the back arrow button. FF4 does not appear to have this. How can I see history of what's been displayed in the tab say four or five pages back?

    You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.
    If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker

  • Acrobat 9 pro designer -- how to populate drop down list

    I down loaded the acrobat 9 professional trial version and have been trying to see how I can create a drop down list where I can input 500 names. I created the drop down list but the problem is the following. To enter the names in the drop down list I have to type each one and hit enter then enter in the next. I have about 500 names to enter and doing one at at time is not efficient. I tried to copy all the names and paste it into the drop down list but it will only paste the first name.
    Does anyone know how I can enter 500 names all at once into a drop down list box?
    I need a simple solution that can be made without some complicated code.

  • Linking two drop down list together

    I have two drop downs list and I need to link them together for the user to only answer one of them and it won't allow an answer in the other or vice versa. How can I set that up?
    If answer drop down list A then can't answer drop down list B
    else
    if drop down list B is answered then drop down list A can't be answered.

    The attached contains two drop-down lists - apples and oranges. Each drop-down list has a default list item value of " ", thus the default index is 0 (zero). If you select a value other than default, the other drop-down list has it's access protected and the list item reset to 0 (zero). Conversely, if you select the default value, the other drop-down list becomes open or accessible.
    // form1.page1.apples::exit - (JavaScript, client)
    if (form1.page1.apples.selectedIndex != 0) {
      form1.page1.oranges.access = "protected";
      form1.page1.oranges.selectedIndex = 0;
    else {
      form1.page1.oranges.access = "open";
    // form1.page1.oranges::exit - (JavaScript, client)
    if (form1.page1.oranges.selectedIndex != 0) {
      form1.page1.apples.access = "protected";
      form1.page1.apples.selectedIndex = 0;
    else {
      form1.page1.apples.access = "open";

  • Grey out drop down list

    Since you didn't name your form, I assumed you have only one
    form in
    your document. Normally, you would name your form
    <form name="foo">
    Then you can reference it directly:
    document.forms["foo"]
    To disable a select object named "bar" in a form name "foo",
    the
    following will accomplish the task:
    document.forms["foo"].elements["bar"].disabled=true;
    //or as a shortcut:
    document.foo.bar.disabled=true;
    The "document" is a reference to your current document, not
    the title.
    This assumes a non-framed environment.

  • Tables and Drop Down Lists

    This is my first time using LiveCycle Designer (8.2)
    I've tackled quite a few things thanks to the information I've found in these forums, but I have reached my complexity limit.
    I am trying to create a survey form that follows a process map with sub-process maps.
    Just to provide an idea of magnitude, one process map has eleven sub-process maps.
    I created a dynamic table with the ability to add and delete rows on a flowed page.
    The first row first column contains a drop down list.
    For each selection in the drop down list, the form requires eight inputs.
    Currently, I just copied the dynamic table for each subprocess.
    Each sub process map will have a running calculated total based on two inputs and a cost based on input.
    The overall process map will have the same.
    The entire section should seperatly show a sum total.
    I don't really know what would be best, but was thinking something along these lines:
    based on the selection in the drop-down-list, if someone selects one of the sub-process maps
    the row changes to allow the drop-down-list to be the one associated with that subprocess and
    the two running totals show up and remain at the bottom of the table.
    Only problem, is I have no idea how to do this.
    I have tried making the tables invisible, but they still show the input areas of the input boxes.
    Anyone feel like helping me figure this out?
    Also, isn't there a way I can populate a drop down list using EXCEL?  I don't want to manually input thousands of process titles.
    Oh, I don't have any XML capabilities, I am not connected to a server or any database, and everything runs at the client.

    Thanks for the input, I will watch the video.
    I was suprised that no one offered up any suggestions.
    I changed the design of the form.  I didn't want to, but I was able to get the product out on time.
    Just out of curiousity,
    Can I have a dynamic drop down list (A = {a1, a2, a3, a4}) that populates another drop down list (B = {b1, b2, b3, b4, b5} ) in table (Tb1) with one of the choices in the second drop down list (B = {b5}) is a dynamic choice that makes multiple expanding tables (Tc2, Te4, Tf5 out of a total of seven tables) appear each with their own (unique) drop down list?
    Or,
    Would it be easier to have the first choice (i'm probably using this word incorrectly) "index" the options for the other drop down lists, etc....

  • Drop down lists populating text fields on a page different from the dropdown.

    Hello all,
    I have a form with several pages. The first page contains a number of drop down lists. These drop down lists, when an option is chosen, is to populate a text field on another page. I can get the drop down list to populate the text field when it is on the same page, but as soon as I move the text field to another page, the script doesn't work. Can anyone offer a solution? I've used javascript on change for the scripts.

    Thanks Paul,
    I have been able to solve the drop down list question, thanks to your help.
    I have another question that involves locking specific fields in a four page form which contains approximately 100 fields that need to be locked before the end user completes the remaining fields. How do I lock individual subforms so that the remaining fields remain open and editable?  The final version of the form, will have at least 200 fields in it that will also need to be locked in sections.
    I can lock all the fields using the lock all fields button, but have been unable to make it work for just part of the form.
    I've emailed the draft form.  It would be really helpful if I had one example of a locked subform on the form I'm struggling with.
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can I make a bound drop-down list using OAF?

    Please note, this is for OAF. I am aware of the support in ADF.
    I'm sorry this is such a basic question, but I've been trying for days, and I can't think of anywhere else to look for an answer.
    I need a simple drop-down list, not a search. This particular list only has 10 or so items. It is based on a view containing a code value, and a description. I need all descriptions to be available at all times. Just click the arrow, and the entire list is displayed. When the user selects an entry, the code associated with the discription populates a bound attribute. Ideally, when the page is instantiated, the code value controls the text value visible in the collapsed drop-down list. Visually, it would be similar to an html <select> element.
    Can someone please tell me how I can produce such a simple thing, or point me to some documentation?
    Thank you.

    Thank you for the excellent reference Peddi. I had played with the OAMessageChoiceBean component yesterday, but I was able to tell from your instructions that "Picklist Display Attribute" and "Picklist Value Attribute" really are not for binding to the database EO. That was the key piece of information that had me confused.
    In addition to adding the messageChoice component to the page, I needed to write some code to synchronize the picklist value with the corresponding code value, which I placed in am OAFormValueBean (hidden form field) which I could then bind to my application's database EO in the controller, running in the processFormRequest procedure:
    /** Synchronize the catalog code with the selected catalog name */
    protected void syncCatalogValues(OAPageContext pageContext,
    OAWebBean webBean, MyApplicationAMImpl am) {   
    OAMessageChoiceBean mcb =
    (OAMessageChoiceBean) webBean.findChildRecursive("CatalogName");
    OAFormValueBean cc =
    (OAFormValueBean) webBean.findChildRecursive("CatalogCode");
    String catalogDescription = mcb.getText(pageContext);
    if (catalogDescription != null) {
    String catalogCode = am.getCatalogCode(catalogDescription);
    cc.setValue(pageContext, catalogCode);
    Along with a little code to get the catalogCode value from the LOVVO, that's all it took.
    Thanks again. This was a great help.

  • How can I add more than five URLs to the address bar drop down list?

    How many URLs can the Awesome Bar hold in the drop down list? I was showing five, but when I tried to add a sixth by cutting and pasting the URL in the address bar and clicking "Enter", it did not show up. Can the Awesome Bar hold more than five?

    It is possible that you have an extension that sets this value to a lower setting than the current default of 12.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • How can I increase the number of Tags displayed in Drop down list?

    When I go to Bookmarks/Tags, there are only 10 tags displayed. I have created at least 15 tags.
    Is there a way to increase the number of Tags displayed in the Drop down list?
    Thanks

    Do you mean "Recent Tags" which has an icon a blue-colored folder with a primitive looking magnifying glass over the folder?
    That folder does have a limit of 10 results. If you want to create an "All Tags" item on the Boomarks Menu, you can do that by creating your own "smart folder." The process I use is a little involved, so bear with me (also, see the screen shots).
    The query used by Recent Tags is:
    place:type=6&sort=14'''&maxResults=10'''
    So for All Tags we will drop the maximum results limit:
    place:type=6&sort=14
    ''If you prefer your tags in alphabetical order instead of having the most recently used at the top, use this instead:''
    place:type=6&sort=1
    Go ahead and select the line you want and right-click > copy it.
    Next, click the bookmarks drop-down button, expand the Bookmarks Toolbar, right-click any existing item, and choose New Bookmark.
    In Location, paste the query, and in name, type All Tags (or your preferred description). When you click Add Bookmark, Firefox will add it, but it doesn't show the blue search folder icon. Drag the bookmark to the menu, and it will turn into a functioning search folder.
    Success?

  • Clicking on the downward arrow at the right end of the location bar no longer displays the drop-down list of sites visited, bookmarks and addresses typed in location bar

    Since I upgraded to Firefox version 3.6.10, clicking on the downward arrow at the right end of the location bar no longer displays the drop-down list of sites visited, bookmarks and addresses typed in location bar. My Tools > Options > privacy setting is to save history, and if I start typing a previously accessed website's address in the location bar, then the full address appears as a drop-down item. But not when I just click at the right end of the bar.

    You can try "Reset all user preferences to Firefox defaults" on the [[Safe mode]] start window.
    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
