3D Tool in Photoshop

I am somwhat new to photoshop 3d and lost my 3D tool. I clicked on the x on the scrubbie above the tool and it disappeared. Does anyone know how to get it back?

There are five 3D tools in PS CS5: Object, Camera, Mesh, Light, and Material, each of them with sub-tools such as Rotate, Roll etc.
You can access them from the 3D panel (Window > 3D), and can watch/change their options in the PS Options bar.
If you refer strictly to the 3D Axis widget, this tool allows on-canvas manipulation of the 3d object, camera, mesh or light, depending on what is your
currently selected item in the 3D panel: Scene for Object and Camera tools, a mesh or a light for the Mesh and Light tools. With the 3D axis, you can
rotate, roll, pan, slide, zoom directly on canvas.
In order for the 3D axis widget to be activated, you need to be in GPU mode (check Preferences > Performance > Enable OpenGL Drawing).
To show the 3D axis, go to View > Show > 3D Axis, or click on the grid icon at the bottom of the 3D panel (tooltip "Toggle misc 3D extras").

  • Using Text Tool Freezes Photoshop CC 2014.2 x64 release

    I have just updated Photoshop CC to 2014.2.0 -- 20140926.r.236 x64 release. Now I am experiencing an issue when I use the text tool to just type a few words on a new document or layer. The application seems to freeze up as soon as I start typing? I wait several minutes with nothing happening and have to resort to using the Windows task manger to kill the photoshop processes. This did not happen before I updated to this release?? Please advise how to fix this if possible to [email protected].

  • Using Clone tool in Photoshop CS causes F9 to randomly activate

    I'm not sure if this is a Photoshop problem or an OSX problem. I have posted on the Adobe site, but there was only one response and that didn't tell me much. And then I thought: it might actually be an OSX problem.
    When using the clone tool in Photoshop CS, after an hour or so, under circumstances that I have not been able to replicate, PS starts to activate F9 on a continuing basis. Sometimes only once (all open windows appear separated); sometimes twice in quick succession; sometimes three or four times. The effect is exactly the same as pressing F9 1, 2, 3 or 4 times every couple of minutes.
    I get around the problem by shutting all other windows (then the PS window I'm working in doesn't get changed - I just click on it to bring it back if it has been F9ed); or if the F9s get too annoying I shut down PS and start again.
    Is this activation of F9 likely to be:
    * a PS bug (somehow it is activating F9)?; or
    * an OSX bug (PS does something and OSX triggers F9)?
    I have not had the problem occur anytime except cloning in PS. I doubt it has anything to do with Expose (as the PS poster thought) because I do not use Expose.
    The problem appears to me to be almost random. It might be in my particular setup, but I suspect that PS and/or OSX are going slightly haywire in a very esoteric way under certain vague circumstances. How's that for a non-specific description of the behaviour

    This is an issue seen from time to time with Photoshop.  The Photoshop team has said they're going to take another look at it, over on the Photoshop bugfix / feature request forum (http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/_adobe_community_help_keeps_popping_ open).
    Not everyone sees this, so take heart, it can work well.
    One source of random corruption seen with Photoshop can be from buggy display drivers.  OpenGL implementations in display drivers are changing to this very minute.
    You can try disabling OpenGL Drawing  for a while, do some editing and watch to see if it still happens.  You'd do this via Edit - Preference - Performance, and remember to restart Photoshop after making the change and before testing. 
    Or you can visit the web site of the maker of your video card and download/install their latest drivers.  I recommend this, no matter what else you do.

  • About Using Magnetic Lasso Tool In Photoshop CS3 Extended

    Hi All
    I seem to be having a problem using the Magnetic Lasso Tool In Photoshop CS3 Extended as when I get half way around an egales beak zoomed in at 66.67% and start to single click around the tight corners the photo is covered over with a white background and the palettes to the right of the Photo e.g. layers, channels, paths becomes white to and all you can see is the paths that the Magnetic Lasso Tool has made around the beak until you click any key on the keyboard but the annoying thing about doing that is that the path automatically becomes selected there for I am unable to draw the paths around the rest of the beak does anyone know of a patch of some kind that will correct this error?
    Many Thanks For Reading This And May Be Replying To it.
    All The Best. Regards,
    Oliver
    P.S I have downloaded and installed all of the updates for all Adobe and Adobe CS3 Software.

    Oliver,
    We have the same exact issue here with the Polygonal Lasso tool. Get anywhere from 20-80% around an object and it hiccups once and then locks up for a moment causing you to loose whatever you've been selecting.
    Symptoms include toolbars and palettes turning white and screen freezing for a moment.
    Is there an official word on this from Adobe? Or better yet, a solution?
    Thanks,
    George

  • Problem combining selection tools in Photoshop CC 2014

    When I make a selection using the Quick Selection Tool in Photoshop CC and then switch to the Lasso Tool to refine the selection, it just adds to what I already had selected.  If I do the same thing in CC 2014, as soon as I click on the photo with the Lasso Tool the original selection disappears. 

    Look at your selection options in the tool options bar for the lasso tool.
    Sounds like cc is set to Add and cc2014 is set to New
    You could just keep the option on new and use the shift key to add to the selection.

  • All tools in Photoshop CS5 not moving smoothly (only making dots instead of lines)

    All my tools in Photoshop CS5, including the brush, eraser, healing brush, etc. are only making dots, instead of drawing smooth lines. When using the brush tool, for example, if I click down and drag my mouse to draw something, only the initial dot for where I clicked down gets colored in. Does anyone have any ideas as to why?

    Does anything jump out to you that could be causing this problem? Also, my lasso tool doesn't work properly as I can't drag anywhere. The move tool also doesn't work properly. I can click down and drag a layer, but after I release my click, the layer moves back to its previous position. The only way to move any layers is by free-transforming them.

  • Where can I find the equivalent tools in Photoshop that are in the develop module of Lightroom

    Friends:
    Where can I find the equivalent tools in Photoshop that are in the develop module of Lightroom?  For example I would like to use the shadow, clarity, lens correction and such tools but cannot find them in Photoshop.
    Thanks amigos
    Migs

    The obvious or not so obvious first. Depending on your knowledge. When you open a tiff, jpg, or camera' raw format they can be opened in Adobe Camera raw first which has identicle controls to lightroom's develop module.
    Starting with I beleive CS5 maybe 4, some of the tools made their way into photoshop it self. Take a look at the camera lens filter, the Image>Adjustment menu or the adjustment layers which now support vibrance for example.

  • I'm trying to use the quick selection tool in Photoshop Elements 12 but it keeps getting stuck on minus.  How do I fix this?

    I'm trying to use the quick selection tool in Photoshop Elements 12 but it keeps getting stuck on minus.  I've reinstalled twice and it will work for a little while and then get stuck again.  When I select something, I have one shot at it and as soon as I let go of the mouse it switches to minus and I can't add anything else.  How do I fix this?

    When a tool misbehaves, go over to the far upper right corner of the tool options area and click the four-lined square. Choose Reset Tool from the popout menu.

  • The Newly Redesigned Crop Tool in Photoshop CS6 | The Complete Picture with Julieanne Kost | Adobe TV

    There are several advantages to the newly redesigned Crop tool in Photoshop CS6. In this video tutorial, Julieanne demonstrates the refined interface, new features, customizable presets, enhanced tools and essential shortcuts that will make cropping easier than ever.
    http://adobe.ly/LiFbdI

    In CS6 if you simply switch to the crop tool after making the selection the crop area is automatically set to the selected area and if you don't want to change anything click on the ok check mark and you are done.  Is that what you want to do?

  • Screen flashes when using selection tool in Photoshop CC

    Does anyone know why my Windows PC screen flashes when I try to use the selection tools in Photoshop CC?

    Hi - thanks for your comments. It was happening on all of the selection tools however I have solved the problem by changing the 'Advanced Graphics Processor Setting' to 'Basic' in Photoshop CC.
    Thanks anyway

  • Keyframe using the puppet warp tool in photoshop CS6?

    Is there any extension or way that will allow me to keyframe using the puppet warp tool in photoshop CS6?
    I'm doing 2d animation, and I need to draw lines that I can immediately animate using puppet warp (you can't draw in after effects).

    I am removing a dust spot from video clips taken during an aerial shoot. I have discovered that the only effective way to remove these spots effectively is to use PS6 and go frame by frame using the paint brush, clone stamp, and spot healing brush. It is very time consuming and mind numbing but the only thing that works with all tha movement of the aircraft and the ground below.
    My question:
    Right now to advance the clip one frame at a time - I must magnify the time line so to see the frame by frame lables. To advance to the next frame I must remove my cursor from the work area and go down to the time line and click on the next frame.
    How can I advance to the next frame with a keyboard stroke and not move my cursor out of the work area?
    Thank you in advance for any help.
    Tony

  • How can i change the color of pen tool in photoshop cs6?

    I want to change the color vector of pen tool in photoshop cs6?

    Just to make sure we're communicating properly...
    Is it that while creating a path you want the thin lines, handles, etc. to be a different color?
    Or is it that after you create your path you want to stroke it with a color?  It IS possible to stroke a path, and even to have an automatic Layer Stroke on a path that's any size/color shape you want.  Example:

  • Eraser tool in Photoshop CS4 acts as if it is transparent when on brush or pencil mode. Block acts like its not transparent at all but there are no options for opacity, flow or brush size. Whats wrong and how to I make the brush and pencil eraser erase co

    Eraser tool in Photoshop CS4 acts as if it is transparent when on brush or pencil mode. Block acts like its not transparent at all but there are no options for opacity, flow or brush size. Whats wrong and how to I make the brush and pencil eraser erase completely without having to go over it multiple times?
    It started randomly about two weeks ago and I thought it was a glitch that would just go away. But now I am getting sick of using only the block eraser on one size. Help?

    The easiest thing to start with is to reset the Eraser Tool.
    Right click on the Eraser icon in the tool options bar and then click on Reset Tool.
