I'm looking for a preference in Photoshop.

I know I've done it before, but I don't know where it is. I'm using Photoshop 5 and I want to change the setting where I can just click on an object and modify it without FIRST selecting the layer and then modifying the object.

If you select your Move Tool (V), is the "Auto-Select" option on your Options Bar what you're looking for? That will allow you to simply click on the layer, within your document, to make it active.

  • For Mac OSX version 10.9.4 looking for the preference tab

    I want to print just a portion of a page but can't find a preference tab. I highlight a section of a page so I can print just that section but I am unable to find a preference tab, I have a HP 6600 all in one and have a new Mac version 10.9.4 Mac OSX
    What am I missing?

    Hi pagosselin,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I see that you are looking for the preference tab in Mac OS X 10.9.4 with your HP 6600 so you can print just a section. and I am happy to help you!
    Please try the following:
    Reset the printing system. OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system.
    Verify and repair disk permissions. Disk Utility 12.x: Repair disk permissions.
    Make sure you have the full feature software and drivers installed. HP Officejet 6600 e-All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver - OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
    After that you will want to make sure the correct driver is selected. Make sure it says HP Officejet 6600 instead of the HP Photosmart that is shown in these images, and not Airprint.
    Let's start with that, and we will go from there!

  • Looking for input on how Aperture rates when compared to Adobe Photoshop

    Hi i am kind of new to Mac and have not bought any good photo editing programs yet i am looking for someone that has used both aperture and photoshop to help me make my decision on which one to buy. any input would help. thanks in advance

    as RB said before, *you can't compare photoshop and aperture*. not in functionality and not in price.
    actually: *you really need both*. there is no way around photoshop. most of your image processing can be done with aperture (or lightroom), however there will always be some photos that require the extra ps power, layers, etc... for retouching, blending etc.
    compare:
    you should compare +apple aperture with adobe lightroom+ for your image management and raw conversion - and - +photoshop cs3 with photoshop elements+ for image editing.
    most here prefer aperture, however this is a question of personal preference. i have both on my machine, and while i like the improvements in adobe lightroom 2, i personally stick with aperture (i prefer the workflow and user interface of aperture).

  • How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when opening the program to digitize new clips for new project. i have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what to disable.

    How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when first opening the program to digitize new clips for a new project. It takes forever for it and is very annoying. I have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what would disable this problem.

    You do not need to move your cursor much when pressing the mouse button to cause the tab to tear-off/tear-away into a new tab. No "sensitivity" setting that I am aware of. The tab in the new window can be dragged back to the original window.
    To disable the feature, install this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/
    *Read the information on the above page
    *Set options for the add-on: Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to the specific Extension (the 2 options are defined/explained in the above page).

  • Can't find "Look for shared libraries" in the Sharing pane of iTunes preferences. How can I find it?

    I am trying to set up Home Sharing between my computer and my wife's. Sharing keeps disappearing from the side bar although Home Sharing is turned on for both computers. Using the Help tab it says to check the "Look for shared libraries" in the preferences/shared box. The problem is that "Look for shared libraries is not there to select. Any ideas how I can sort this out?

    I'm having a similar issue even after the "Shared Libraries" box is checked in General preferences on iTunes...
    On early verisons of iTunes i had no problem with sharing or remote access via iPad.  I really need to figure out how to get this working.

  • Looking For A Good Book Or Manual for Photoshop Elements 3.0

    Photoshop Elements 3.0 is my very first photo editing program and am looking for a book that will show me how to use all of the features. Comments on the following 3 books would be greatly appreciated.
    Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 Classroom in a Book
    The Photoshop Elements 3 Book for Digital Photographers
    Photoshop elements 3: The Missing Manual

    I have PE3 so would be glad to pay the shipping if they are of no use to you anymore. Would both PE2 and 3 be necessary or would PE3 be good enough? Should I contact you by email?
    Ken and Colin, your comments are a great help too. Thanks for the responds. I'll look online for The Photoshop Elements 3 Book for Digital Photographers. Wasn't thinking...the only ones at the stores are the more current versions.

  • New to photoshop, looking for advice on creating a stencil design, can anyone explain how to do this

    Heya,
    So I'm hoping to get back into photoshop, my knowledge at the moment is pritty minimal, but i'm going to start learning how to use it again.
    I'm new to this forum and don't intend to come on here often for advice but i hope that someone would be kind enough to point me in the direction that i'm looking for, i would be very grateful.
    Firstly, i haven't yet decided which adobe photoshop product is best suited for what i'm looking for and i aim to go and explore the trials first to find out.
    I'm looking to create designs with software that doesn't really have any limits in terms of creating designs.
    I was wondering if someone could give me some links to a tutorial or something that explains how to create the stencilling effect in the image that is seen as a tree with a cityscape in the background, and possibly the other effects seen on the t-shirt. I know it might be a lot to ask but it would really mean a lot if someone could explain how you create effects like this.
    Here's the image:http://www.gifts.com/products/Kohls/Mudd-Tree-Tee?p=6886:1945256129:35
    I know that the image is small, it was the best i could currently find, i hope that you can still see it well enough.
    Thank you in advance
    I really appreciate it!!

    First you may want to google »photoshop tutorial distresssed«.
    As for combining images like that a combination of Blend If-settings (one can split the handles by alt-click-dragging them)), Layer Groups set to Blend Modes other than Pass Through and Grtadient Maps may be employed to maintain high editability.
    One could also just use the images as Layer Masks for Solid Color Layers (and use Levels or Curves to get the intended contrast), though.

    System files are hidden by default in Finder now, search for what you want then click the little + button on the top right of the bar that appears when you do a search. A new bar comes up and click the first box (that says "Kind"), change it to "System Files". Then change the box that says "aren't included" to "are included" and your file should show up.

  • Looking for a Tutor to teach me Photoshop CS2

    I am looking for someone who can spend from 1-3 hours, in 30 minute to 1 hr intervals, teaching me some key areas of Photoshop CS2. The person needs to be in th4e United States and speak english fluently without a heavy foreign accent. I am looking for step by step, live tutoring over the phone. I have tried to use the photoshop training materials but I still don't "get" it. At a minimum, I want to learn, in detail, the following:
    -learn how to extract objects from images
    -learn how to change a certain color in an image to another color
    -understand layers and how to break an image down into layers
    -learn how to create masks and work with layers.
    I will pay by the hour - hoping to get someone around 30.00/hr.
    thanks
    Patrick

    no so much a dig at the OP as just an observation. it totally confounds me why someone would pay for what they already have. learn the terminology and what the app is capable of first by reading the manual (ANY manual, this doesn't just apply to learning photoshop), then when you can speak the lingo, you can really get your $20/hr worth of instruction because you'll be better equipped to ask relevant questions.
    the axiom: there's no such thing as a stupid question applies only as far as you're not paying for answers.
