How to configure double click to open picture in my default editor (Photoshop CC)?

Hi!
I wanted to ask, if it is possible to open an image in my default editor, if I do a double click on the image?
In my case, I want to open the image in Photoshop CC for further manipulation.
Thanks a lot!

So I posted a feature request: http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/configure_double_click_to_e_g_opeb_f ile_in_default_editor

Simply put, I do not like like the new color coding "dots" and I do not like having to press the Command key before double clicking to open files in a new window. How hard would have been to include the old version of these two features?

Can't Alt+double click to open an image?

hello: Level: Newbie Id:Cs6 Os:Win8
i have read that Win8 is compatible with Id, Ps and Illy (i'm not sure about the other CC apps but i hope they are too)
however, while following a vid tut by Terry White ~ he directed me to click on an image and to then hold the Alt key while double clicking to open it in full(er) view but when i did this the image opened in Windows Photo Gallery
well, earlier i had gone to Default Programs and set Windows Photo Gallery as the default to open images ~ not knowing it would prevent Id from functioning or that it would override (apparently) everything else (yes, i am pretty new to OS's in general too) i did this b/c when i would go to my Pictures folders and click on an image to view it was opening in some AWEFUL program that depixelated (<is that a word?) /made my pics/images look just terrible.
so, i called Microsoft and the man that was trying to help me said that i had to go to "Associate a File Type or Protocol with a Program" and then i had to choose Each and Every Single File Type (.png, .jpeg, .tiff etc etc) for Each and Every Application (Adobe or not) and "Associate" that File Type with the Application i need for it to open ... um ... caugh caugh ... just a moment .... SCREAM!! uh, what? Really?
Dear goodness ... please say it ain't so!! please?? (lol)
so, is this really the deal? or does anyone else think i may have been directed incorrectly?
i went back to Default Programs to remove Windows Photo Gallery as the Default program but i am not seeing where that is an option.
i totally understand this isn't help for Windows8 forum but IF anyone has experince w/it and is willing/able to help me out i would also greatly appreciate any advice you may be able to lend. i do plan to go run around the net after i'm done here to look for (a needle in a haystack) help in a Win8 forum (yikes & wo is me)
oh, also the (nice) man at Microsoft couldn't tell me if i went ahead and did this rather Windows Photo Gallery would still open my Pictures or not or if it would return to that awful preview program i began with in the 1st place.
this was my very 1st time using InDesign and i would really like to start learning it. does anyone know why i cannot Alt+2's click & then have the image open like it's suppose to? or even how i go about telling Windows8 to please let Id ALSO open the files the way it wants?
sorry for such a long post. i have been through a nightmare episode just ordering my new laptop and now Win8 seems to be creating an entire season
thanx so very much in advance for your time and efforts. i will also continue my quest for answers and should i find 'em i will certainly return to share and post links.

hello peter
thank you so much for asking as i am quite ready to send my laptop back to where it once came
well, as i understand it there is a bug with the AMD Graphics card
when i try to draw a shape, add a new layer, use the alt key to "cut" the line of the pen tool the canvas goes totally black and i cannot use the filters or the 3D tools. also, the bg area behind the canvas changes from dark grey to black to transparent
all of the above are reasons why i saved for 3 yrs to buy a new laptop w/a decent graphics card and it's just totally bum'n me out
if i understand correctly it's an issue between the AMD and Windows 8 ~ so as of now i am thinking i should either send it back or get rid of Win8 and install Win7 but actually now that i think of it i dunno if Win7 will correct the AMD issue or not but i think it would.
at first i thought the issues were Adobe related and not as i seem to have found
my laptop is a Satellite S875-S7376 the gpu is an AMD Radeon HD 7670M, the hard drive is 1TB, i7, and it has 8GB ram, 64bit, Windows 8
i went to AMD's website and if i understand correctly there is a "fix" that is helping somewhat but NOT for Toshiba notebooks, Sony and Panasonic and AMD is no longer releasing updates every month but only when they feel they have good enough reason to do so.
i've been unable to find an idea of when AMD thinks they'll have a fix for Toshiba and i've only got under 2 weeks to return this laptop
i tried to install something called the AMD Catalyst or maybe it's ATI Catalyst Mobility but was told it could not be installed due to incompatible hardware/software on my computer
i just wish i could get back to work and decide what would be the best thing for me to do
i seem to be making some folks upset b/c i keep trying to chase down an answer/solution. for instance i didn't realize that the problem i am having is called Flickering and so i had posted again about it at photoshop.com and was given a lashing about how i was already told this and that.
i was also told that the solution is to just set Photoshop to Basic Draw Mode ... but that is my whole point as i don't want to have to use Ps in Basic mode as the entire idea of investing in a better computer was to be able to enjoy the bells and whistles
if you've got any ideas or you know of a solution or even if you've heard of one rolling on down the road i would greatly appreciate anything at all that you could share with me
sorry if i ramble a bit much i'm just frustrated beyond the point of clarity
thanx again so much for your time & efforts!!

Why can't I double click to open embedded images?

I want to put this topic in the Features request, but I'm putting it here first to check that I've not made a silly mistake.
I'm slowly getting the hang of Illustrator. But it often feels like I'm learning how to do things in a non-intuative way.
Take Embedded images. Illustrator loves them. I guess its because it doesn't have a 'Collect for Output' feature - but don't get me started on that! Anyway, my point is when I receive a file with embedded images and I want to open those embedded images, my INTUITION tells me to simply double click the image and wait for it to open in Photoshop. After all, aren't Adobe always telling us that Illustrator and Photoshop are seamlessly integrated in ways Freehand can only dream of?
So, I double click and nothing happens. I then double click the thumbnail picture in the Image box. Up comes a Link Information box. Lots of facts and figures except how to open it. Then I click on the blue underlined word saying 'Embedded'. More options here - but none of them any good because I haven't got the original on my system.
To cut a long story short, I finally discover that by copying the embedded image, then opening Photoshop, then opening a new document, then pasting, then clicking the transform tick box, then flattening - I can get to see the embedded pic.
No nifty link back though. If I want to update the image in Illustrator I have place it, scale it position it and delete the original. I tried Relink - but it pasted the new pic at 90 degrees to the original!
So how about it? Double Click Embedded images to open in Photoshop? Change them and they automatically update in Illustrator? Am I asking too much? Am I missing the point?

Not a feature. In fact, there's no way, using just Illustrator, to extract embedded images. But then, it's only at version THIRTEEN! I save a PDF using no downsampling or compression, then open in Photoshop. When you open a PDF in Photoshop you are given the option to rasterize any pages or extract images embedded in the PDF. Choose Images then select the images you want. Save as TIF or PSD and re-link in Illustrator.
Yes, it is stupid.

InDesign crashes every time you double click to open an .indd file on Windows system

InDesign crashes every single time you double click to open an InDesign file and has done so since replacement of the original version of InDesign introduced in the Creative Cloud launch. Does anyone else have this problem? I'd say it was unique to my system if I hadn't experienced the issue repeatedly on several different systems now. You have to relaunch InDesign which then opens the file from recovery, so it saw the file you tried to launch in the first place. This leads me to believe the problem lies with the file association registry of InDesign inside Windows systems. I find it unbelievable that this problem still exists and remains unreported and that a solution hasn't been implemented by Adobe to rectify the issue.
The double click is a fundamental tenant of opening files on a Windows system in the same way a single click is on a Mac. Does InDesign crash ever time a Mac user clicks to open their files, I think not.
Anyone got any ideas other than the obvious which is Adobe actually got their figure out and fixed it.
Cheers,
Pat Doyle

Hi Michael,
I'll give it a go. Don't really like messing with the registry on Windows boxes. Yes you can do it, but it can end up being a case of the operation was a success, but the patient died.
Just was rather hoping someone else had already experienced this problem and posted the registry tweak. Didn't want spend hours reinventing the wheel. Not because I'm lazy, but I have so many demands on my time that resolving a minor issue that effects me only seems like it should be pretty low priority.
The system I'm using is brand new, but the problem seems to have followed me regardless which may indicate that it is seated in my synchronization information somehow. Really don't know how that could happen as I'm not an Adobe engineer or have the remotest idea where to even start looking. So I think I'll mark your suggestion as the "Answer" and just learn to live with it.
Windows eh! Can't live with - can't live without it. I'm sure Mac can be just as temperamental. Just have to chalk this one up as being just another ghost in the machine.
Thanks for all the advice you have kindly offered, much appreciated.
Cheers,
Pat Doyle

How to avoid double-click to click-box

Hello,
until now I did not find a solution for this problem:
I have created a training course for a specific application, and in this coure are some click boxes on which the user should click. On many click boxes should the user click only once but if he double-click the click box, in real application nothing happens. There is only one way to succes the action - one click. But in captivate when the user double-click the click box instead of one click it evaluate as success action (the click box is set only to one click, double-click checkbox is not checked).
So my question is, is there any way how to avoid double-click in cases where the user should click only once? Or in case he double-click the click box to show failure caption?
Many thanks.
Lukas

Hi all
Interesting thread. Unfortunately, what would be needed here is some sort of a widget that would run some internal timer. Sure, you can try multiple Click Boxes and configure one with a Single Click and one with a Double Click. But the problem with that (as I see it) is regardless of what you might try, the Single Click will win out every time. Thus you would need a widget of some sort that would "listen" for a Double Click and respond appropriately.
Tough call... Rick

Library shows original but will only display clip if double-click to open

I did some editing in PSE, lifting a couple of clips from one of the photos in iPhoto. When I look at the photo in the iPhoto library, it looks fine. However, if I double-click to open it, it will only display one of the lifts - not the original. Where/how can I find the original photo? It seems to me that if it is gone, it would not display in the library. Thank you.

Can you explain what you mean by "clip"?
Every version of iphoto has a Revert to Originals command.
How have you set up editing in Elements?

Double-Click to Open Folders in Mavericks Problem

Since I installed Mavericks on my 27" iMac, I have had a problem with double-clicking to open a drive or a folder. It seems to be working only about one out of every tenth time I try it. I can open them with a right click and select open. If a drive is open I can open them using the small grey right arrow next to the folder. Other than that I get failure most of the time. I have tried trashing the Finder preference file, but this does not seem to work. I have tried restarting with no success.
The only think I did that may be connected is regarding Finder Preferences Tags. I wanted to see what choices there were there. Each colored tag had a small blue square to the right with a minus sign in it. I checked the Red tag to make it a check mark. I can't seem to get it back to the small minus sign. I am not sure if this is connected.
Anyone else with the same problem or a solution?

I tried creating a new duplicate account with Migration Assistant, but this did not change. I now suspect it has to do with overall size of my account - many files, pictures, movies, music, etc accumulated over many years. I see that Spotlight is still trying to index all of the files, which may be what is slowing things down.
The main effect is the inability to double-click a drive or folder to open it up. It works only about 1/3 of the time. When the main folder opens, the next level folder most often still has a problem.
I will report back when Spotlight finishes its indexing.
Anyone else have this problem?

When making an iphoto book I double click to open a page and nothing happens

When making an iphoto book nothing happens when I double click to open a page to work on it.

Try the following: make a temporary, backup copy of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

Windows Server 2008 R2 clients can't double click to open Office files

Let me start by saying I don't know too much about Server 2008.
I have Server set up so desktop clients (Windows 7 Pro 64-bit) can log in as their user on their own machines. On two of the client machines (mine and my bosses, I have admin rights on everything) a couple funny things are happening:
1. Can't open a Word or Excel file by double clicking the icon on the desktop. Error is as follows:
Excel
Microsoft Excel cannot access the file 'C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Excel\XLSTART\PERSONAL.XLSB'. There are several possible reasons: The file name or path does not exist. The file is being used by another program.
The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook.
Word
The file Normal.dotm cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents.
and then
Word cannot open this document template. (C:\Users\(username)\...\AVWiz14s.dotm)
and then
Word cannot open the existing file. (Normal)
and then Word stops responding.
Note that I can open these documents normally from the start menu. I have determined this error has something to do with the server because I have tried a bunch of stuff on the internet, including an Excel hotfix, which did nothing.
2. Desktop icons flicker, rearrange themselves, and even disappear completely at times. I do not know what causes this, but I do believe this is a server issue.
3. I get recycle bin errors every time I log in, and every time I try to delete anything:
The Recycle Bin on \\intecserver\Office Employee Files\kneureuter\My Documents\My Videos is corrupted. Do you want to empty the Recycle Bin for this drive?
Sometimes I get that error for 3-4 different directories.
What I've tried:
I tried reinstalling Office, and that made no difference.
I have the drive from the server "Office Employee Files" mapped to network drive Y:. I can open that and go to my account folder on there, navigate to "Desktop" and open the files from there, but not on the physical desktop on my
computer.
These files aren't shortcuts on the desktop, their permanent home is on the desktop.
Just to reiterate, if I moved these files into a folder on the desktop, they will open fine. If I open them from within Excel or Word, they open fine. If I open them from the server drive mapped onto my terminal, they open fine. Just can't
open them by double-clicking the file if it is directly on the desktop. Any ideas?
I logged onto my account from a different computer and double-clicking to open the files worked fine on that computer. Both computers running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit and Office 2010 Pro. So that limits it to this machine and my bosses machine.
Since you can't create a shortcut for something on the desktop, I created a new folder on the desktop and put the files in that folder. From there I created a shortcut and put that on the desktop. That worked!
However, that's just a band-aid. I need to fix this problem sooner than later.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!

Hi AxEheaD15,
If the Desktop or the My Documents folder is redirected to a network location, Office applications may exhibit the similar issues .

Does anyone know if there is a way to arrange songs on a playlist that has 100 songs? I used to be alble to double click and open a new page but that is no longer an option. Because you cant get a total view of the playlist it is almost impossible

I used to be alble to double click and open a new page but that is no longer an option. Because you cant get a total view of the playlist it is almost impossible.. if a song is in position 95 and I want to put it at 3 I have to hold it and drag it till the curor moves.. This makes creating an order almnost impossible because you cn only see half of the songs

How to handle double click event in a text control

Hi,
   Will u please send me information on handling double click events inside text control and also about locking and unlocking of DB tables for updation.
Regards,
Praba.

Hi Prabhavathi,
Here is how you handle double click events in Textedit control.
1)Create a custom control in screen (say TEXT_CONTROL)
2)In main program,
a) Declarations:
data: obj type ref to cl_gui_custiom_control.
      text type ref to cl_gui_textedit.
b) Create the instance of custom container
c) Create the instance of textedit control.
3)Now to handle double click events , create a local class as follows.
class shail_event definition.
public section.
methods:
handle_doubleclick for event dblclick of cl_gui_textedit .
endclass.
class shail_event implementation.
method handle_doubleclick .
here do the coding for handling the double click.
endmethod.
endclass.
4) Create an instance of the handler class(ie.ZSHAIL_EVENT).Let it be named hand.
5) Define varibles for event.
DATA: i_events TYPE cntl_simple_events,
      wa_events TYPE cntl_simple_event.
SET HANDLER hand->handle_doubleclick for text.
wa_events-eventid = cl_gui_textedit=>event_double_click.
wa_events-appl_event = 'X'. "This is an application event
APPEND wa_events TO i_events.
6)
    CALL METHOD texte->set_registered_events
      EXPORTING
        events                    = i_events
      EXCEPTIONS
        cntl_error                = 1
        cntl_system_error         = 2
        illegal_event_combination = 3
        OTHERS                    = 4.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
     MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
                WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
    ENDIF.
These are the basic steps needed for handling events in Textedit control.You can go to SE24 and type CL_GUI_TEXTEDIT to find the associated events of the class.
If you want the program, kindly send your mail-id so that I can mail it to you.
