Adobe Elements 7 have a Measuring Tool?

Just installed adobe elements 7 and am looking for the measuring tool that in previous versions was located with eyedropper.   We use it for making angular measurements between two intersecting lines.   While Elements has a straightening tool, this will automatically reposition my image depending on what line I draw, but will not allow me to make my measurements.   Does anyone know where measuring tool is now located?
Thanks for your help.

A workaround in Elements is to use the line tool with the info palette open. As you draw the line, the info palette will display the line's length and angle. (Make a note of the angle/line length before releasing the mouse button as this info disappears once you release the mouse button.) Edit: Alternately, you could drag out your line at the desired angle and use it as a guide.
If you only need the length and height, drag out a rectangular marquee around the object to be measured. The info palette will display the marquee's width and height.

  • Does photoshop elements 13 have the pen tool and where is it?

    Does Photoshop Elements 13 have the pen tool and if so where is it?

    I don't understand what you mean about the white line, but many tools in PSE are actually groups of tools. The blur tool shares a slot with the sharpen tool and the Smudge tool. Click hold on the one that's visible for a popout menu, or keep tapping the R key till the blur tool comes into view.

  • Which of the Versions from Adobe elements has a gradations curve tool.  PSE 10, 12, 13 or which one ?

    Dear community,
    which of the Versions from Adobe elements has a gradations curve tool.  PSE 10, 12, 13 or which one ?
    Your comment will be appreciated.

    Yeah right ,
    gradients tools are present in all these version
    and curves are not present in any of these officially .
    Curves are present with their own interface.
    One big problem is that you'll never find them logically where they are : under the menu 'Enhance/color correstion', it's the 'adjust color curves' option.
    Add to that problem the fact that this kind of adjustment is not about colours (no R,G,B channels) and you'll see why it is missed by everybody.
    The interface is meant to help beginners understand how curves work : you choose the effect you want and you see the curve being drawn. Excellent for pedagogy but users of the traditionnal curves manipulations don't understand the new way.
    If you want the old curves interface, you can add many free or affordable add-ons like Elements+. The most powerful and free one is the smartcurve plugin for Windows 32 bits.
    Other ideas:
    - if you don't use curves for colour correction, you can use the gradient tool adjustment layer (black to white) in luminosity mode. That's how you deal with curves in adjustment layers. Note that using gradient maps instead of curves is only a graphical way to determine the inflexion points. Same parameters, different inferface.
    - Using curves intensively was the way to edit ten years ago. Now, you can use the ACR basic tag to achieve quickly much better tone and colour correction, that way you won't need curves most of the time.

  • ADOBE ILLUSTRATOR MUST HAVE A BEZIGON TOOL

    i found out that freehand is an easier tool for drawing because of its bezigon tool (draws path using automatic curvature.). for an illustrator who's using mouse, it is very helpful to use the said tool. i hope adobe add this tool on illustrator.

    Not so much which one is better, but a Technote from the KB explains the differences between the two:

  • How to have measurement tools in a 3D pdf in acrobat reader ?

    hello,
    I have the trial version of acrobat 9 pro extended
    I work with 3D content in pdf file
    I try to use measurement tool in adobe reader 9 but is not activated.
    When I create my pdf 3D file in acrobat 9 pro extanded, I have the measurement tool but not with adobe reader with the same pdf file
    I find nothing in help file
    could you help me ?
    regards

    You can extend some of the PDF capabilites, such as 3D Measurement and Commenting, by using one of the following methods:
    With the PDF open, go to Comments > Enable for Commenting and Analysis in Adobe Reader...
    -or-
    With the PDF open, go to Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader...
    Either one of these will make the PDF behave the way you want it to.  I'm not sure exactly what the differences are, but my impression is that the latter gives the Reader user a few more priveleges.  I could be wring.  This can probably be clarified by the Help system.

  • I have Elements 12. It's an upgrade in most respects from the old CS2 I used for years. Except there is apparently no measuring tool. How can this be; is there a plug-in, or will Adobe fix the problem?

    I have Elements 12. It's an upgrade in most respects from the old CS2 I used for years. Except there is apparently no measuring tool. How can this be; is there a plug-in, or will Adobe fix the problem? Anyone know a way around this glaring omission?

    Hello again. When I said PSE 12 was an upgrade on CS2, I meant that simply from an informal point of view - and it is: it's better software in most respects. In expert mode, the features and functions are much the same as in the CS2 I had before, but enhanced and slicker. Less 16 bit colour depth and a few other things of course. Unfortunately, as it now transpires, the "few other things" has turned out to include the measuring feature.
    Thanks for the work-around - only problem is ... to what Info Panel are you referring when using the line tool? I've looked around but can't see the line length being shown anywhere. Thanks in advance for any light you might be able to cast on it.
    Incidentally, I upgraded my written-off Canon D5 MK II with a D6. To me it's an upgrade - it's a much better camera - though by the letter of the law, the strict upgrade path would be to a 5D MK III. One can use the word "upgrade" in this informal (but entirely meaningful) sense, I hope, without being sent to prison!!

  • Tools in Adobe Elements 12 don't work after Yosemite upgrade

    Trying to edit my son's wedding photos - the basic editing tools in Adobe Elements 12 will not work and I have to force quit to get out of app.  Others have reported the problem on Adobe forums but it seems like an Apple issue??  I've only owned this program for a month and it would be horrible for it not to work because of an OS upgrade.  Adobe's response is to upgrade to 13.  I'm not spending another $80 on a program that I just purchased. 

    So the download completed; did you also install it?
    Have you tried to contact Adobe Customer Support?  http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html

  • My computer crashed, how do i download the digital format of adobe photoshop elements (I have the cd

    my computer crashed, how do i download the digital format of adobe photoshop elements (I have the cd version, redemption code and serial #) to my new computer which does not have a cd drive

    if you follow all 7 steps you can dl a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-11-direct-download-links-pse-premiere-pre.htm l
    and activate with your serial.
    if you have a problem dl'g, you didn't follow all 7 steps.  the most common error involves failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).

  • No Crop tool in Adobe Camera Raw, have updated to 8.7 but still not there, how do I get full tool panel please?

    Hi, I have the $9.99 Adobe CC package but in Camera Raw I do not have the full tool bar, went to Adobe site and downloaded Camera Raw 8.7 but still not there, I have Windows 7 on PC. Please can anyone help. Thanks.

    Yes, in the camera-raw preferences you can set ACR to open as a plug-in when editing TIFs or JPGs.  There are three settings -- paraphrasing:  Don’t, Open all, and Open those with settings.  You would want to set JPG’s setting to Open All at least temporarily. 
    Of course you can also use PS to crop, right?

  • In Windows 7 I mistakenly un-installed Adobe Application Manager and all applications (CS3E, CS5 and Elements 6) have disappeared from programs on the start menu

    WIN7: Mistakenly un-installed Adobe Application Manager and now all Adobe apps (CS3, CS5 and Elements 6) have disappeared from the programs list in the start up menu.
    CS5 Bridge is still there so I can get into the photo editor to de-activate it and re-install.
    However, all of CS3 has disappeared so I cannot get into it to de-activate.
    Question 1: Will downloading and re-installing Adobe Application manager get CS3 automatically back?
    Question 2: If not, what to do to get CS3 back things working properly again? Remember, I can't de-activate it.
    Thanks and have a happy day!

    Don't worry about activation unless you are installing on a new and different machine. Simply reinstall in order. It should all work.
    Then install any updates. Product updates
    After that, let me know how it went and if there are any further questions.

    Yes. You can.
    I've learned something. New. This must be recently changed. That last time I clicked on a Link I though was a dmg file and turned out it was and exe file my Macs wouldn't allow me to do so. But haven't tried recently everytime and exe file comes up I cancel. I gues I am used to the time everytime a Virus or some other nasty was downloaded it was packaged in and exe file and Macs owuldn't allow it. I suppose with the INtel guts now they can no longer refuse to download.
