Image snapping to upper left when opening?*

* I do NOT use image tabs
OK, DL'ed CS 6 and I'm going in! First thing I notice is after setting up my prefences exactly as CS5 every image I open in CS6 snaps to the upper left of my work space and I'm not allowed to drag the image window where I please (like the center of my screen). It keeps snapping back!
With a 26" screen and smallish files this becomes instantly frustratiing. Now if I drag the image anywhere on my dual monitor desktop, the image returns to the upper left, but with every move it covers up the UI. AND IT WONT STOP!
Nobody better tell me this is a "feature" - I'd appreciate some guidence here
Oh and BTW, the new crop tool stinks, it make me dizzy and confused. This is not progress, just more UI change cuz 'its cool'. Hopfully we can revert to cropping the way we have for 15+ years.

TLL, before reverting entirely to the classic mode, try just turning off the Auto Center Preview option.  I find it very natural to use now.  Try that and just do what you used to do on the screen.

  • Application windows snap to upper left corner and stick there

    Since I upgraded to Mavericks I've had an intermittent problem with application windows. If I shrink a window down to the dock sometimes when I being it back to the desktop it goes up to the upper left corner of the screen and sticks there. I can drag it away but when I let it go it snaps back to the corner. I have to close the application and reopen it to get it back to normal.
    So far it has only happened with TextEdit and Google Chrome and it only has happened 6 or 7 times in two weeks but since it makes the window unusable I have lost work when it happens.
    Has anyone else seen this and is there a fix?

  • Windows snapping to upper left screen

    Occasionally, when I click on the icon of a running application (Calendar, Thunderbird, Firefox) in the dock, it will appear on the screen in the upper left corner instead of where I left it last. Furthermore, it will usually appear shrinked (sometimes really small), the left edge of the window will be beyond the screen border, and if I try to drag it back into the main part of the screen, it snaps right back to where it was.
    The only way I've been able to recover is to quit the application and restart it.  Upon restarting, it usually still has the same size problem, but I can resize and move it.
    I only have one display and I just double-checked in System Preferences to be sure that the OS only thinks there is one display.
    Here is a shot of what it looks like when Calendar gets stuck in the upper left corner:
    That isn't the entire window (I didn't want to expose the details of my life's schedule ) but you can see that the window extends beyone the edge of the display.
    Any ideas?

  • What's the RIGHT way to draw an image in the upper left corner?

    I have an NSView in a ScrollView and I'm trying to draw an image in it. The problem is that I want the upper left corner of the image locked to the upper left corner of the frame, instead of the lower left corner, which is what the View wants me to do. I will need to be able to zoom in and out, and rotate.
    currently, I have a kludge of a system where I calculate how much I have to translate my image based on the size of the image and the size of the window. In order to do this, I needed to create an extra view outside the scrollview, so that I could get the size of the window, not including decorations. Then I can calculate the size of the view based on the size of the image and the size of the window, and based on THAT, I can figure out where to translate the image to.
    My only other thought was to use the isFlipped: method, but that ends up reversing my image L-R which is bad.
    Is there another way I should be doing this?
    thanks.

    Ah, the problem is that the content view includes the control panel, and while I'm sure I can get access to the control panel, and find out it's size, and then calculate everything off that, it becomes messy, and my way is easier, and no more messy.
    And I never said this was HARD. I have already DONE it. It's just ugly, and I'm wondering if there is a better way to do it. Translating between coordinate systems is normal, but changing lower left to upper left origin is an artifact of the Mac's history with PDF and PS.
    If the way I'm doing it is the accepted normal way, then fine, just tell me that.

  • Black screen/white circles in upper left when testing iPad3 Retina app (Air 3.3)

    I'm developing for iOS, particularly the iPad 3, on Windows. I downloaded the AIR 3.3 SDK and added it to Flash Pro CS6 per this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4583745#4583745
    My app runs fine in Air 3.2 but you can't run apps at Retina resolution with 3.2. If I compile the app with 3.3, it compiles dramatically faster (roughly 10x faster) but when I try to run it on the iPad, all it displays is a black screen, with five small white circles in a horizontal line in the upper left corner of the screen. The circles are animated like an old console progress indicator, cycling through showing one, two, three, four, then all five of them.
    I've tried Googling this but if I search "white dots" I get dead pixels, and a bunch of miscellaneous unrelated results if I search "white circles". Does anyone know what might cause this issue or a solution for it?

    It turns out you have to enable SWC in the Publish settings for a Retina/iOS5.1 app to work. You don't need the SWC under AIR3.2.

  • How do I change the JPEG image size in PSE-12 when opening from RAW

    Switching from PSE-9 to PSE-12. When a JPEG image is opened RAW in PSE-12 the size is 18.72" Wide x 12.48" high 300 DPI. The same image in PSE-9 is 23.4" wide x 15.6" High 240 DPI. How do I get PSE-12 to open the image as in PSE-9?

    Uncheck the boxes at the bottom of the dialog Scale styles and resample Image so that only constrain proportions is checked. If you the change the resolution box from 240 to 300 you will get back to your original dimensions.
    This is a meaningless thing to do, you still have the exact same number of pixels, you have only changed the metadata number in the file for ppi, and your prints are not affected by this number.
    You could also use the same method to change the dimensions to 6 x 4 or 9 x 6 etc.
    There are some cases (actually most cases) where you need to CROP the photo to change the dimensions, when the aspect ratio of the original photos is different than the aspect ratio of the final photo; the specific case in 99jon's example is the only case you ever want to change dimensions using Image->Resize->Image Size, where the aspect ratio doesn't change from 6x4 to 9x6 (or 12x8 or 18x12 or ...), and even then, you could do the same thing simply by telling the printer the size you want, you don't really need to do anything in PSE.

  • Document Images won't show up when opened by Windows Users

    When using Pages or Microsoft Office 2004 for MAC to create documents that have .giff, .jpeg or.jpg images in them my Windows based recipients can not view the images.  This was also an issue with HTML pages I created in TextEdit.  The recipient can see everything in the document or page except the images which have a red "x" or a blank screen with a message that states "quicktime and a decompressor are needed to view this file".  It even happens when the recipient has the same update of quicktime that I do and when I use MAC's Grab utility....Please help, this issue is adversly affecting my grade in technology class and since the instructor is not a MAC user they have offered no help or sympathy. What's really frustrating was there was no issues viewing images in documents before the end of March.

    All documents have a .doc extension and again I have to ask why one picture on the same document might show but not the other and why this only started at the end of March?  This was not an issue I had before then.  I could try saving as a PDF but the assignments must be turned in as a .doc or .rtf so a PDF format would not help me. I have the same issue whether I use .rtf or .doc.  I assume it is a Quicktime issue or a setting I have made or changed.  I read a few online forums where people had difficulting viewing images in PP or QT and they attributed it to a bug in the QT update that could onlybe fixed with a complete OS re-install and not reinstalling QT.  It makes sense in someways, given that this is a new issue, however why does it randomly select images?  I can't afford a complete OS install.  I guess I will have to take both my PC and MAC to the Apple store an hour from here and have someone look at what I'm experiencing.  Another hassel I was hoping to avoid, but I can't keep ignoring random loss of images for the rest of my life and I get the feeling this is an issue that doesn't have a forum answer.
    Thanks for trying though....

  • Automatically convert images to RGB Colour Profile when opened in Photoshop...

    Hi there,
    I have just moved over to Photoshop CS6 from Elements 10. One thing I can't work out how to do is to have PS automatically convert opened files to RGB, exactly like PSE does. Is this possible?
    Many Thanks

    Basically the only way to convert them is by manually changing the colour profile?
    To my knowledge, yes.
    I'm sure you can write a script that will do that automatically, but I don't script. You can post in the PS scripting forum. Bright and helpful people there. I'm sure someone there can set you up and walk you through how to install "a convert CMYK to working RGB upon open" script.

  • PDF image changes when opening in photoshop

    sometimes when we open PDF files in photoshop the image changes. sometimes text disappears and other times fading occurs. Here is how it can be duplicated:
    1. First try downloading the file here http://www.m3printing.com/files/wierd.pdf
    2. open the file with acrobat. take note of the red NYN in the upper left
    3. open the file with photoshop. you will notice the YN becomes faded
    any clues as to why this is happening would be greatly appreciated
    ps. we use photoshop CS2

    This doc is unnecessarily complex in its color structure.
    It uses CMYK and seven spot colors. CMYK is DeviceCMYK,
    which means, the space is not defined in the doc by an ICC
    profile.
    A part of the red text vanishes if the doc is opened in Photo-
    shop in CMYK mode. I don't know why. Perhaps a trans-
    parency flattening problem.
    Analyzed by Acrobat > Tools > Print Production > Preflight.
    My suggestion: convert each page into a well specified CMYK
    space as recommended by the printer.
    The fastest solution:
    Open in PhS in Lab mode with reasonably high resolution,
    for instance 288ppi, convert into a specified CMYK space
    and save as TIFF.
    The correct solution:
    Go back to the source program (InDesign) and replace all
    Spots by process colors. Flatten and save by new name.
    Export as PDF.
    Flattening in advance to Export guarantees the appearance.
    Export with layers contains the risk that flattening at the
    receiver turns out to be wrong.

  • Images pre-edited when opened in Editor

    I have used PSE 11 for a few years and all of the sudden this week my images are being "auto edited" when opened.  When I open an image in Editor it has already been edited a bit… it looks different than the image in Organizer.  I want to edit the images myself.  Did I accidentally turn some "auto edit" on?  How can I turn this off?

    I just figured out that after the image is opened in Editor, I can go Image-- Convert Color Profile-- Remove Color Profile.  That gives me the original image.  But, does anyone know how to turn this off for good?

  • Acrobat 9.4.4 crashes when open PDF forms

    We are currently rollout out a Win7 imange and using Microsoft Configuration Manager's task sequence to install Acrobat 9.4.4. to the image.  Acrobat works fine when opening regular PDF file.  However, Acrobat crashes everytime when opening a PDF form.  Our current workaround is repair Acrobat.  Once its completed, Acrobat can open PDF forms without any problems.   But, the repair takes ~20mins, I am seeking for a easier solution or perhap fix the installation in the image.
    I reached out to our Acrobat Platinum support, my call was rerounted 3 times and I was on the phone more than 3 hours.  No one wants to take my call and start troubleshoot.  Very frustrated.   Greatly appreciated for any suggestions and advice.  Thank you.

  • I have what appears to be a web icon that is frozen on my safari blank page. The icon is for a website and shows the image of a progress clock. If I tap the image, the website opens, but I notice that the clock in the upper left never stops moving.

    If I tap the icon, the we page will open, but the clock on the upper left corner will continue to run as though the page is still loading, but never finishes. When I close the we page, the clock image will remain on the blank safari page. I cannot get rid of it. Just upgraded software, but that did not help. Any ideas of how to get this "icon" off my blank safari page?

    That's probably a bookmark you have saved in Favorites.
