How Can I Move the Image in the Workspace to Align with 0 on the Ruler (CS5)?

I am completely new to Photoshop (CS5) so I don't know all the correct terms to explain my problem but I'll try.  I'm working on a computer with Windows 7.
I open a RAW image and edit it to my satisfaction, and then I "Open Image" in CS5 to do a little more with it, mainly crop it.  I have adjusted the rulers so zero is near the upper left corner.  I want the image's upper left corner to snap to the 0/0 ruler point on the screen.  I can't get the image to move at all.  I've tried Move, Hand. Select and Move, Snap To Guides, and everything else I can think of.  The reason I want to do this is so I can see the image when I have an Image Adjustment window open (Sharpen, Levels, etc.) -- all those "working" windows cover up the image and/or my panel on the right side of the screen.  An odd thing is that the horizontal ruler goes clear over to the right side of my screen, above the panel, and this places my image smack in the center of the screen instead of the center of the workspace (the screen minus the panel and the list of Tools).
Any suggestions would really be appreciated!   This is a very frustrating problem!

Sounds like what you want is Window > Arrange > Float in Window. This puts the image into a seperate, normal window, rather than the tabbed interface that Adobe has foisted on us (Float in Window used to be the default).
When viewed as normal windows, if you ALT + CTRL + plus or ALT + CTRL + minus, it will zoom in and out, expanding and contracting the window to fit.
For the Toolbar, if you drag it to the left of your screen, you can dock it to the left edge. When the toolbar is docked, other windows won't open underneath it.
Another handy shortcut when you find all your panels distracting is the H key, to show/hide the "Extras". Be sure to set it back to "Show" when you're done; it's all too easy to be wondering, "Why isn't my paintbrush working?", only to realize you have and active selection hidden.

  • How can I move an image/file around inside a document with text already in it?

    I'm learning In Design on the job, and it's a real challenge.  One big problem I'm having is, after I've placed an image inside a document with text in it, how do I place it precisely where I want it?  Sometimes I need the image flush to the left, and sometimes I need to center it.  When I place it, it doesn't land where I need it to be.  Things I've tried work sometimes but not other times.  I've tried going to Paragraph and reducing the setting to zero to move an image flush to the left of the text frame/column (I'm working with a three-column page).  Sometimes that works, and sometimes it does not.  When it doesn't, I've tried using the Selection tool to drag the image, but it doesn't respond.  Could someone give me an idea of what I'm overlooking?  I'm finding that InDesign has many settings, and all it takes is for one setting to be what it shouldn't be for things to go badly wrong.  I'm having other issues too, but in this discussion I'll stick to this.

    Sounds like you are anchoring the images in the text flow. That's fine if you need them to move along with text during editing, but is usually not required and often counter productive. If you place your images as separate objects in their own independent frames they can be positioned anywhere and moved at will. If they need to be anchored, consider using Custom Positioned instead of inline.

  • How can i view nikon images in photoshop? i have cs4 so the camera raw plug-in is not an option and i've lost my disk from the initial purchase of the D90.

    how can i view nikon images in photoshop? i have cs4 so the camera raw plug-in is not an option and i've lost my disk from the initial purchase of the D90.

    The NEF file only gives a little "nef" icon.  i was able to convert the NEF to DNG on the old computer and then brought the files over to the new computer.  On the old computer, the NEF files were depicted as little jpeg's so I would be able to see a picture of what each file represented.  On the new computer, both the NEF files and the DNG files are depicted with icons, "nef" or "dng", but not as little pictures.  On the new computer, though, I am to import the DNG's into Adobe and edit them so that is working regardless of whether or not a picture is present for the icon of each file.  I've downloaded the DNG converter from Adobe and will try the conversion directly on the new computer when I get home from work.  I do appreciate your responses and will let you know how it works.
    I am curious then, since right now the files are represented by little "nef"'s and little "dng"'s: If I also download the viewNX (spelling might be wrong, sorry) from nikon, do you know if that maintains the file as a RAW format file but allows a picture representation of the RAW file for the icon?  (That would make it easier to choose which RAW files I would choose to edit and which to not even bother with as an initial culling if that makes sense.
    Cheers.

  • How can I move some image on JPanel ?

    How can I move some image on JPanel ?
    I want to move it with my arrow keys.
    Plees, give me example code

    1) Read the Swing tutorial on [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/layout/index.html]Using Layout Managers. You would need to use Absolute Positioning so you can control the position of the image
    2) Add the image to a JLabel and the label to the panel
    3) Read the tutorial on [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/keybinding.html]How to Use Key Bindings. Then you just assign an Action to each of the arrow keys and use setLocation(...) to move the label.

  • How can i move video and music and narration all at once in the project library

    how can i move video, narration and music all at once in the project library  it is only moving the video

    Select the directory with your pngs in it.
    Right-click>Browse with Adobe Bridge
    Select your pngs
    Tools>Photoshop>Load to photoshop layers (not sure how many layers this can handle--you may wind up having to do this in batches)
    Save your new psd
    In Flash, create a new symbol with a blank timeline
    Ctrl-R, navigate to the psd you made earlier
    Select all the Photoshop layers
    Check "create MovieClips for these layers."
    Convert layers to keyframes or flash layers (not important, since you probaby don't need to keep this symbol)
    OK
    You'll have Movie Clips, not Graphic Symbols, but maybe you can write or find a JSFL to convert them and then you can block select them, click the Properties button, and change the type from MovieClip to Graphc.

  • How can I move/relocate images in Dreamweaver?

    Hello, I'm 16 years old and just went on a mission: My dad's shop has no website, and recently in school we've been taught the most basics of how to design a website. So I set myself a personal goal, to create a website for my dad! I know it will take time and I will be struggling alot, and here after about 20 minutes work I'm already stuck. How can I move images?
    I don't know what version of dreamweaver I'm using, but I only just downloaded it (30 days trial) from adobe.com so it must be the newest version.

    In DW Help Menu > About Dreamweaver shows the version and build #
    First, define  a local site folder. 
    Go to Site > New Site.   Tell DW where you want to keep your site files on your local hard drive.  See screenshot.

  • I use FF 20.0.1. How can I move my Favories and settings fron a laptop with Win 7 to a new laptop with Win 8. I can't find appdata on the Win 8 PC 8

    I want to use Firefox on my Win 8 desktop. i want to move my favorites, settings and add-ons to a new Win8 laptop from my old Win 7 machine. I know how to do it with Win 7 machines by moving my profile. I can't find appdata on the Win 8 PC to move the profile to.
    I will also want to do the same with Thunderbird.

    The easiest way is to use Sync.
    You can find it in Tools / Options.
    You'll always have settins, bookmarks, saved passwords, history synced between you computers (and Android devices).

  • I downloaded Ff v.4, and now my tabs are way on top of the page, above the address bar; how can I move them down to where they were before, just above the window? ...Thanks!

    Another problem that was there before v.4, is that the bottom tab hides behind other tabs, so I have to close everything else to get to it. If you have advice on that too, it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks a bunch!

    Right-click the Navigation Toolbar and de-select '''Tabs on Top''' in that contextual menu.

  • How can i move Zaber T-LS stage(x-direction only) with a step increment of x microns on both directions.

    Dear friends:
    I need to move Zaber T-LS stage with step increments say 'x' micros on both directions (forward and backward).
    Further, i am using one stage (1D stage).
    Please help
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello,
    Thanks for your inquiry about using Zaber's stages. There is a LabVIEW instrument driver available and documented here: http://www.zaber.com/wiki/Software/Binary_Labview_Driver. There are examples included in the Instrument Driver as well. I've attached another simple example for the T-LS showing how you can use the driver. With the attached example, you just need to select the COM port the stage is attached to, enter the distance in micrometers you would like to move (enter a negative number to move backwards), and run the VI. 
    Please let me know if this helps, or if there is a different example I could assist with. 
    Best,
    Mike

  • When is select Bookmarks from the Menu Bar, at the very bottom are a bunch of bookmarks. How can I move them in groups to a folder?

    When is select Bookmarks from the Menu Bar, at the very bottom are a bunch of bookmarks. How can I move these in groups to a folder or folders?

    The easiest way to move bookmarks around is in the Bookmarks Organizer, which at some point was renamed the Library. To open it, you can choose Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks or press Ctrl+Shift+b.
    (Please note that the sort order of the Library dialog doesn't actually carry over to the menu. To sort the menu alphabetically, it's easiest to open the Bookmarks Sidebar, right-click the words Bookmarks Menu and choose Sort by Name.)

  • My iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

    my iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

    If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    PreparedStatement retreive = db.createPreparedStatement("select bl from test where ln = ?");
    Blob bl;
    try{
    retreive.setBigDecimal(1, new BigDecimal(jTFln.getText()));
    ResultSet rs = retreive.executeQuery();
    if (!rs.next())
    System.out.println("Empty Result Set");
    bl = rs.getBlob("bl");
    if (bl == null) {
    System.out.println("Null Blob");
    return;
    InputStream is = bl.getBinaryStream();
    int imageLength = (int) bl.length();
    System.out.println(imageLength);
    System.out.println(bl.length());
    byte[] imageData = new byte [imageLength];
    is.read(imageData, 0, imageLength);
    image1 = new ImageIcon(imageData);
    photo = new JPanel() {
