CS4--changing workspace/menu/tools from grey to color?

Ok, CS4, to my eyes is very grey and flat. I know how to change the background color, but is there anyway to add more color to the interface in general...tools, menu or palette color??? Yes I do know that we can highlight individual menu items on drop down.

I've always worked full-screenswitching modes with the 'F' key anywayexcept for doing small, quick stuff. Mac OS X's Exposé feature of using hot corners to get windows out of the way still allows for drag and drop between open apps. So the AppFrame mode is kind of redundant to me. I s'pose it's OK to have as an option; I'd have to work awhile with it to see if I'd like it. But as much as I've worked with Windows OS (enough to be able to get around intuitively and be productive), I just never really liked or got used to having almost every app take up the full monitor by default.

    Hi. After loading a picture into Photoshop some of the menu tools are greyed out and I cannot use the keyboard short cuts, for instance I cannot use Ctrl + T for free transform, how do I resolve this problem. In addition the tool Icons are so small I have to get close to the screen to see them, is there anyway the Icons can be made bigger without reducing the resolution of the screen.
    Thanks
    Derek

    Are you working on a background layer? If so, Ctrl + T will not work. Press Alt and double-click your background layer to convert to a normal layer (or right-click BG layer and select Layer from Background) and try again.
    If you're working in Photoshop CC 2014 you can go to Preferences > Experimental Features and tick "Scale UI 200% for high-density displays" to make your buttons and icons larger.

  • Change printer mode from grey to color and visa versa

  • Can I change the highlight colour from grey?

    Can I change the highlight colour when searching for words in a Pages? I find the grey is hard to see. Thanks, Mike

    Mike,
    As Fruhulda noted, this is a System behavior (and a source of irritation and questions since the beginning of—OS X—time). It's part of the System's way of showing which is the active window, and extends to other System set colours as well. The most noticeable (if that's the proper term for these inconspicuous non-colours) is the greying of the thumbs in the scroll bars.
    Do Provide Feedback. But make it OS X feedback instead of (or as well as) Pages Feedback.

  • How Can I change the menu toolbar from dutch to English in PS CC?

    PS CC is installed in Dutch, and i would like to change it to English, any experience ?

    I work on a PC, I use PS in Italian and English.
    In order to change the language of your interface you need to install PS in the language you want to work with.
    That means, you should go to the creative cloud panel, select the gear icon in the upper right corner, go to the APP preferences, choose "DUTCH" from the drop down menù , and install PS again.
    After installing Ps, you launch it, go to EDIT>PREFERENCES and from the interface options you choose "DUTCH" , restart PS and the change will take effect.
    Hope this is what you were looking for.
    cheers

  • CS5.5 crashes when I change work space from editing to color correction

    When I change my work space from editing to color correction CS5.5 crashes.
    Can get it to change from editing to audio work space without crashing, but when I want to change back from audio to editing it crashes then too.
    Any help appreciated.

    In my quick search (check me out there), THIS DRIVER appears to be the latest. I would install and test with it. I find it a good idea to do a System Restore Point for before a driver install, and to also keep a few older drivers available, just in case one needs to roll-back.
    Good luck,

  • Ownership changes on workspace menu items

    I'm using Trusted Solaris 8 7/03 and I found that if I add an item to the workspace menu everytime I log in the ownership of the file I added to the menu changes from what it should be (root) to owned by me. Does anyone know how to stop this change in ownership?

  • Since upgrading to Mail 7.0 the menu popup from right clicking an element in an email has changed.

    Since upgrading to Mail 7.0 the menu popup from right clicking an element in an email has changed.  There is now only a short three item menu:
    Previously there was a longer menu (like the one when right clicking an item on a Safari page):
    I've looked in Preferences and at all the Mail dropdown items but can't find any way to get the old menu back (or why it changed).  In particular, I miss the "copy image" item which allowed me to copy an item image into a new email for forwarding.  I've got two email accounts, an IMAP and a POP.  The behavior is the same with both.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    Your screen shots are not visible to me.  But I think I understand your question.
    Several thoughts come to mind:

    You can still, of course, simply forward the entire email message containing the image.
    You could also use the "Save Attachment ..." feature available when you right click and copy and paste from there once the image is saved.
    Less likely, you could also use the "Share" feature available when you right click, though I suspect it may not offer sharing options that you would like.

  • How to change in External Editing from Edit in CS4 to CS5?

    In LR 3.2 (was also in 3.0) Preferences/External Editing it says in the top position "Edit in Adobe Photoshop CS4" even after reinstalling LR 3.2.
    Originally I had installed CS4 and LR 2.7, then I installed CS5 and LR 3.0 but the top position remained with edit in PS CS4. Then I added CS5 as an additional external editor in the Preferences/External Editor, so far ok.
    The problem: If I want to "Merge to HDR in PS" it goes to CS4 and not to CS5. I assume that it would go to CS5 if CS5 would be in the top position but I can't find out how I could change the top position from CS4 to CS5. Any hint would be appreciated as long as it does not say to reinstall CS5 and LR3.

    It's a common problem. You'll need to reinstall CS5 as the Lr is getting the wrong key.

  • 64 bit CS4 Extended crashes when changing workspaces

    Everytime I try to change workspaces, PS CS4 Extended crashes. Operating system as follows: Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit, Intel CoreI7 3.2, 64 bit 12 gig ram, so power should not be problem. Has anyone experienced similar problems or have a clue? I am running and NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTS with the latest driver and open GL enabled.
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Do you see the same problem with OpenGL disabled?
    I ask because I've seen things work on the first run after deleting preferences, only to fail on the second and subsequent runs.  It wasn't the same issue you're seeting, but in that case a video driver update corrected it.
