Changing Tool and Swatches defaults?

is there any way to change the default settings for tools, like the magic wand? i always have to go in and set all tolerances to zero and after years of doing this, it's getting kinda tiring. same with swatches - i'm sick of starting out with the same default swatches and having to delete them all so i can have a clean set for my new documents. is there any way to start out with no swatches patterns and gradients?

SIGH. Photoshop has an awesome feature called Tool Presets, which allows you to do this quite easily. However, I am unaware of any similar functionality in Illustrator. A good feature request.

    Change Slider and NumericStepper default value
    http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-18380 - FxHSlider and FxVSlider have default max of 100, should be 10
    Changed the default value for Slider by setting the value to 10 in the constructor. I changed NumericStepper?\226?\128?\153s implementation to match Slider. The problem with NumericStepper?\226?\128?\153s previous implementation was that it wasn?\226?\128?\153t calling Range?\226?\128?\153s maximum setter. Thus there was some important logic in Range.commitProperties that wasn?\226?\128?\153t called.

  • Cannot change tools and cannot use selection or crop tools

    I am using Photoshop Extended CS6.  A new problem has started to occur recently.  I can select a tool, but I can't change the tool type. For example, I can select the Lasso Tool and when I right-click the tool fly-out appears, but I cannot select a tool from the fly-out to change the tool type.  The editing tools, at least the ones I can select, still work except for the selection and crop tools.  For the crop tool, the crop lines appear at the edge of the image but they cannot be moved.  For the selection tools, nothing is selected.  I can still use menu commands such as Canvas Size.
    This happens when I open a file or start a new file.  I have Windows 7, 4G memory and nothing else running.  I have tried 32-bt and 64-bit versions.
    This has happened intermittently for a month or two.  In the past, freeing up space on a hard drive seemed to help.  But now I have 50G free on one drive and 30G free on another so I don't see how that could be the problem.  Rebooting allows me to use the crop tool once, but then the problem reoccurs.
    Ideas, anyone?

    No keyboard macro programs installed.  Microsoft Security Essentials is installed.  It says it is up to date and there are no problems.  A keyboard test program found no problems. I have tried two USB keyboards with the same results  I have 10% free on my system drive: and 15% free on my second drive.
    More clues:
    If I open Photoshop by opening a file, the problem immediately occurs. If I open Photoshop and then open a file, it works until I press a key as described above.
    The problem only occurs in Photoshop. I’ve tried lots of other programs, including Premiere, Audition and Illustrator; they all work correctly.
    The problem can occur without a keyboard attached.  As I described above, if I switch to another application (Windows Explorer in my test) and then switch back, the problem occurs.  This is true even if there is no internal keyboard and no USB keyboard.

  • User saves query view (web) with changed layout and opens default layout...

    Hi Guru's,
    We are implementing the new (7.0) web template and the portal. One of my users is experiencing the following:
    He runs a webquery, changes the layout in the desired format and does a save as in both My Portfolio/Bex Portfolio.
    When he opens this "changed" view (both My Portfolio, Bex Portfolio) the default format/layout is openened.
    When i open the view he created in Bex Portfolio i do see the changed format/layout ...
    We put an authorization trace on his uid -> no result. Went through the loggings both on ABAP as well as Java stack -> no result.
    Has anyone an idea what is happening.
    Regards,
    René

    Second attempt.
    Has anyone a clue or experienced the same?
    I am not able to reproduce the issue with a copy user with same authorisation.
    The issue also appears if more (mine) authorisation is granted to the user. I am not experiencing this issue

  • Change SCROLL_UP and SCROLL_DOWN default behaviour

    When I press the scroll bar for a tabular(10 rows), it start the next set of records at 8 not 11. Any solution to overwrite this behaviuor.
    Thanks

    Hi all,
    Nothing is impossible here.
    Oracle forms has given enough way outs for every thing , you just need to catch the right one.
    Here is the solution to synchronize the scroll_up and scroll_down events for two different blocks.
    You need to write the following code in WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE trigger of the block having scroll bar.
    DECLARE
         v_top_record NUMBER:=0;
    BEGIN
    v_top_record:=get_block_property('block1',TOP_RECORD);
    go_block('block2');
    go_record(v_top_record);
    LOOP
    IF get_block_property('block2',top_record)=v_top_record THEN
    exit;
    ELSE
         next_record;
    END IF;
    END LOOP;
    END;
    Its working fine as required...
    Cheers..

  • How do I change font and colors back to default?

    I have changed the font and color of the text through the tools button and the options button and the content tab. I find nothing telling me how to change the font and colors back to default font and colors. Can you advise me? I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium OS. Thanks.

    Hi Brenda19605,
    You can use this article to set the fonts and colors: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-fonts-and-colors-websites-use?esab=a&s=font&r=0&as=s
    The default settings for the font are in this article:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Some%20text%20shows%20up%20bold%20after%20upgrade
    Unfortunately for the default colors has no good reference. But for text it is black (most lower left) color, background is white (most upper left color). Unvisited links is blue (column 8, row 5) and visited link is purple (column 9, row 5).
    Let me know if you need anymore help!

    Windows will scale applications display or windows will not scale application display depending on how the application is coded.  Photoshop is coded in a way that its display is not scaled by windows.  Photoshop knows about your displays high pixel count not its resolution  so it uses its pixels  however it does not scale its UI to make it usable on your display.  Other application let Windows  scale their display output.   For example Microsoft default for is Surface Pro 3, 216 ppi display is to scale applications display up 150% so the surface pro 3 display which has 2160x1440 pixels a 216 ppi resolution look like at display with the user is using with 1440x960 pixels.  The Application works like the display is 1440x960 and Windows scale those pixels to the displays using the displays  2160x1440 pixels the effectively changing it resolution to 144ppi rather than the actual 216ppi.
    The reg update  and external manifest file  effectively tells photoshop its working on such a size display display some number of pixel wide and some number photoshop uses that as the display size  in turn Windows scale those pixels to use the displays 2160x1440 pixels efector lowing its 216ppi resolution.  Photoshop CC 2014 2X UI would be like using windows 200% option applications would be shown the are working on a display 1080x720 instead of the Surface Pro 3 2160x1440. Note that 1080x720 does not meet PS requirement of 1024x768.  Photoshop UI would not fit on the Surface Pro 3 display..
    Since you have a 4k display if you have CC 2014 you can use its 2x UI effectively Photoshop will be running on a 1920x1080 display and have half the resolution of you 4K display  3840x2160 pixels four native pixels are use as a single pixel.   1920x1080 pixels exceed PS requirement.

    How do I change the size of the tools and the text for the menus in Photoshop?  I need a magnifying glass in order to make out what they are.

    Okay, I've figured it out, so I'm going to answer my own question in hopes that it may help anyone else that would like to actually be able to see what they're doing when using Photoshop CC 2014 on a high resolution screen.
    1.  Open Photoshop.
    2.  Select Preferences from the Edit Menu, then select General.
    3.  Change the HUD Color Picker to Hue Strip (Medium).
    4.  Select Interface from the Preferences menu on the left side of the dialog box.
    5.  Change the UI Font Size to Large in the Text area of the Preferences dialog box.
    6.  Select Experimental Features from the Preferences menu on the left side of the dialog box.
    7.  Select Scale UI 200% for high-density displays (Windows only).
    8.  Click on OK, then Exit/Quit Photoshop.
    9.  Open Photoshop and everything should be readable.

  • I have an Adobe Flash Professionals digital classroom book for CS6 and was following all steps easily until it ask me to select the text tool and change it from classic to tfl in the property inspector. I looked and all that drops down is dynamic, static,

    I have an Adobe Flash Professionals digital classroom book and was following all steps easily until it ask me to select the text tool and change it from classic to tfl in the property inspector. I looked and all that drops down is dynamic, static, and input. Where is the TFL and Classic ? I watched adobe learning center but he was using CS5. Can anyone please help?

    Hi,
    Do you use Flash CS6 to follow the instructions in the classroom book? If yes, then you can find it under text drop down for an AS3 Document as shown below
    If you follow the instruction in Flash CC or Flash CC2014 then you will not find this option as this is deprecated.
    Thanks!

  • I downloaded the new 5, and that has caused my tools etc. along the top to disappear. I need to delete the persona, but it says to go to tools and change it, but there is NO tools anymore.

    I need to remove persona to hopefully be able to get my edit, tools, printing, etc back across the top.
    The info says to go to tools and make thge change, but there is no longer tools, so how can I do this?

    Press F10 or tap the Alt key to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.
    Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the "Menu Bar" or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

    If you have CC you can go to preferences>Experimental features and select scale UI 200%. Otherwise you're out of luck.

  • I am unable to change my ringtone from default on my iphone 5 as well as the phone only vibrates and doesnt even play default ringtone.

    Having just got iphone 5 through I have no end of problems trying to change the ringtone from default (marimba).  I also have the problem that the phone only vibrates and does not even ring.I have seen posts with solutions and tried them but to no avail.  Any ideas?

    Thank you for your reply Lasina. The purchase was already verified by your
    agents the day prior on my first call. They confirmed and noted that I paid
    full price for the phone on that call. They  admitted a coding error on
    Verizon part and ensured that it would be corrected in 24 hours which was
    in time for the pre order. .. however it was not. That's why I called a
    second time. Yet the second called said they needed to confirm, like the
    first call never happened. Now I am not able to pre order the iphone I
    wanted and will need to wait weeks for a backorder (whether I decide to
    stay with Verizon or not)
    Thank you for your reply. What can be done at this point or what do I need
    to do to get this cleared up. I can't afford to keep spending hours on the
    phone and getting nowhere. Please help.
    Thanks,

  • Itune was not installed and i defaulted to pictures to open iphone how do i change default to itune or nothing?

    Itune was not installed and i defaulted to pictures to open iphone 5s in windows 8, how do i change default to itune or nothing?

    You need to try and explain your problem again. I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to describe the problem as. What do you mean you defaulted pictures to open phone? What default are you referring to here?
    You can import pictures from the Camera Roll of the iPhone to the computer, and you can sync pictures from the computer to the iPhone using iTunes, but I don't know what you mean when you say defaulted pictures.

  • Hey i recently buy an iphone 4s and by default i set it to saudi arabia and i would like to change it to united states since i can't use the apple store of usa any help plzzz

    i recently buy an iphone 4s and by default i set it to saudi arabia and i would like to change it to united states since i can't use the apple store of usa any help plzzz

    Besides setting the iTunes store to the US, you will also need
    a credit card issued in the US with billing address in the US;
    you also are supposed to be located in the US when using the
    US store, and there are periodic software checks to verify that.
    Simply changing the iTunes store to the US iTunes store will
    not allow you to make purchases/download free apps without
    meeting the other requirements. Do you meet them?
