Photoshop CS6 zoom percentage

Hi there,
Does anyone know if there is a way to set a default zoom percentage value in Photoshop CS6?
I would like to set this to 31.5%.
A bit of a strange value I know, but I've found that this value gives me an image on the screen that is the same size as what I get out of the printer.
It would be great if I could do this, as it's a bit of a bind having to type in 31.5 over and over again in the Navigator.
Apologies if this is covered elsewhere.  If it is I haven't been able to find it.
Richard.

Seem you need a simpler editor then Photoshop or need to learn a bit about the software you have.
For this is not overly complicated when it comes to Photoshop.
If you want to automate something using Photoshop you need an Action, Script or both.
If you want something to be automatically automated when you open a document you need that event to trigger the automation you want to happen.
If you want your image to be displayed print size on your screen what needs to be known is the print size, the displays resolution and the images pixel size.   Knowing these sizes one can figure out the number of pixels that the imaged need to be displayed with on the display and knowing images pixel size it can be scaled for the display resolution. All image on you system most likely will not be set to 300dpi resolution. Images need to be scaled according to their resolution.
Photoshop make it very easy to record Action.  The action Palette palette is a full blown action editor.
Photoshop menu File>Scripts>Script Event Manager make it easy to trigger automation for given events.
Photoshop knows image pixel size, print resolution therefor can calculate print size.  However  Apple's and Microsoft's operating systems do not know or store your displays resolution and you display hardware does not report pixel resolution to you computer. That piece of the equation is missing you need to set that for Photoshop then and only then can Photoshop calculate the correct View Print Size and scale the image accordingly.

  • Photoshop CS6 zoom to center broken

    Zoom tool does not center image about clicked point, even when "zoom clicked point to center" is checked under general preferences. Behavior appears the same with this box checked and unchecked. Is there another way to force this feature?
    Already installed all updates, and have restarted program and OS multiple times as well.
    This is a basic feature that IMO makes the program useless without it.

    Setup:
    Fresh install of Photoshop CS6 extended 64-bit (13.0.1) on a Win7 64-bit OS.
    To reproduce problem:
    Use "standard screen mode". Open image in new tab. Check "zoom clicked point to center" under general preferences. Select zoom tool. Click on image. Clicked point does not become center of view. This happens with any zoom level, as long as the image fills the viewport. Unchecking the same setting does not change the behavior.
    Why this is a bug:
    Correct behavior is shown if an image is switched from a tab to a full window (by dragging the tab down into the viewport so min/max/close buttons appear on the window frame). In this case the "zoom clicked point to center" setting works as expected, centering when checked, and not when not.
    The only time correct behavior is shown in tab view is when zooming from a magnification which does not fill the viewport to a magnification which does fill the viewport. In that case, and no other, the image will be centered on the clicked point.
    Both of these statements suggest that "zoom clicked point to center" is not implemented correctly when in tabbed view, which is the default view and the one most people (myself included) are trying to use.
    Notes:
    Photoshop CS3 on the same machine shows correct "zoom clicked point to center" behavior by default (there is no option to turn this zoom style off).

  • Problem with zoom in Photoshop CS6

    Hello
    I've got problem with new(?) feature in Photoshop CS6.
    When I'm working on my project and have for example 150% zoom and I want to move workspace with SPACE+LMB.
    In my previous version (CS3) I can do this without problem but know Photoshop shows me my file with FIT TO SCREEN zoom and some frame to choose
    which screen area I want to zoom in.
    It's just zooming out to full view of file. I hate this, but I can't turn it off.

    I was just being sarcastic. I knew it is a feature while searching for a way to fix the issue awhile back. I am very interested in knowing if any user out there could somehow fix the problem by reseting, reinstalling, etc. I got an update a few hours ago, and that didnt fix it either.
    I have tried a lot of suggestions, and the only one seems to be working for me is to turn on "Scrubby Zoom"
    Noel,
    I run Adobe CS5 on MBP 10.6 and CS6 on MBPr 10.8. No additional plugins, English US keyboard. The laptops come with standard configuration... nonetheless, they both have the same issue.
    I am sure my computers have different settings from others, but this issue does not seem to be isolate as there are other users have experience it too.
    I personally, don't think it is too hard to re-create.  Most likely happen when
    1. Hold down space+command to zoom in
    2. Release keys, then hold down space and start moving around
    3. there you go, "bird's eye view" comes
    One thing I notice is that the problem does not occur all the time.

  • Adobe Photoshop CS6 100% Zoom Issue

    Adobe Photoshop CS6 Version 13.0.6 x64
    OS X Yosemite Version 10.10
    100% Zoom is very tiny on my screen. How do I fix?

    An Images dpi setting has nothing to do with it.  Its all about the number of pixels you have.    Image for the web have fewer pixels.  It does not matter it you set the image DPI resolution is 72, 300 or any other value when you don't resample the number of pixels remain the same.  When you display actual pixels 100% zoom an image with 10K pixels with a 300dpi is the same 10K pixel image with a 72dpi resolution setting.  Printers will use the images dpi setting to adjust pixel size.  Displays do not they are run at their native DPI resolution whatever that is.  So a 10K pixel image with a 72DPI setting and a 10K pixels image with a 300DPI setting will be displayed as a 10K pixel image at the displays dpi resolution.
    DPI defines Pixel size pixel density  300DPI means 90000 square pixels per inch  so the pixel size would be 1/300" x 1/300".  72DPI means 5184 pixels per square inch so pixel size is 1/72" x 1/72"
    So if you have an image with 7200px x 7200px and set the dpi tp 72DPI and print it will print 100" x 100" do know of a printer the cal handle 100" paper
    So if you have an image with 7200px x 7200px and set the dpi tp 300DPI and print it will print 24" x 24" you need a large form printer that can handle 24" wide paper
    This image can not be displayed on a display zoomed to 100% only part of the image will fit you will need to scroll about the image. Unless you have a 34" display with a square aspect ratio with a 300DPI native resolution that I don't know about.

  • White Wall - Photoshop CS6 corrupted files won't zoom

    So my Photoshop CS6 is slowly corrupting files. I open psds to find nothing but a giant whit wall. I zoom out and the white disappears but then I can't zoom in any further than 50%. My rulers however, show that I'm zooming in. Then when I select another layer... it snaps to % I should be looking at. (Also... this particular file won't give me a preview in the icon on my desktop. Related?) This is not happening with all my files. Just the ones surrounding this particular project. Please. Help. Me.

    Welcome to the forum.
    With display issues, the first thing that I recommend is to check the installed video driver, and if it is not the latest, update that from the mfgr's Web site.
    What OS are you running?
    What video card (make & model) is installed?
    What is the video driver version?
    Is that the latest on the AMD/ATI, or nVidia Web site?
    Good luck, and if that does not help, at least we will have gotten that out of the way early.

    I just bought lightroom 5. I had lightroom 3. Now when I export my photos from lightroom 5 and upload them into my photoshop elements program to edit the photo files are at 100% zoom percentage. When I upload photos from my old lightroom 3 program they come into photoshop at 14% zoom percentage which is what I want them to come in at so I can zoom them in to detail the skin. What might have changed settings wise between the 2 programs, I cannot figure it out.

  • Photoshop CS6 - blurred/jagged picture at irregular zoom levels

    I'm using Photoshop CS6 on a desktop running Windows 7 with AMD Radeon HD 6750 and I noticed that when I zoom at 66.7% or 33%, the pictures edges look "jagged"/blurry, etc. and the image only has a smooth rendering at 100%, 50%, 25%, etc.
    I wouldn't ask about this except, I have the same exact version of Photoshop on my laptop, running Windows 7 with Intel's HD 4000 built-in graphics, and this computer displays smooth rendering of images at any zoom level, no matter what. So why the difference? The settings in the Preferences > Performance section is identical on both computers.

    Yeah, sorry. Computer won't let me update the driver. First I installed the wrong one and crashed the computer, then I reinstalled the old one, downloaded the correct one, it installed, no crash, the computer restarted and it told me I had no driver, so I had to reinstall the old one. No hope of updating apparently. I hope that wasn't the solution to the Photoshop problem >.<
    I also keep getting conflicting messages from my computer. Photoshop said I had the 6750, but Windows said I had the 5750. When the second install failed (of the 5750), Windows now tells me I have the 6750. I don't get it. But I guess this a question I should ask AMD.

  • Why does the zoom keep changing in Photoshop CS6?

    Hi,
    I have just recently bought photoshop, When I use the magnifier, it sometimes zooms on the left mouse button and zooms out on the right mouse button. Other times it dosn't do this. Why does it keep changing and how do I get it to stay on L/R button zoom? 
    I have just created my new site that has many English teachers on Skype All this was done using Photoshop cs6 but I had the problem with the zoom the whole time!!
    Please help me with this annoyance!

    Other times it dosn't do this.
    That’s a bit vague and you do not provide a lot of information, please read

  • Photoshop cs6 lags on macbook pro retina 15'

    Recently I got my hands on photoshop cs6 but my brush lags quite a bit while using it. This happens when I'm zooming in to do minor details or if I'm using a brush more than 200
    I've heard good things about design production on macbooks but so far I've seen the opposite. Is there anyway to solve the brush lag problem from Apple's end?

    I am using a student version which is running atm on a windows 7 64 bit macbook pro retina 15. The best thing i can try doing is downgrade to CS5. Though i'm positively sure if I installed photoshop less than a few weeks ago, it would be at the latest...

  • How do I make Photoshop CS6 keyframe panning work with many clips?

    Hello Photoshop experts:
    I am having big troubles with applying keyframe controlled panning in Photoshop CS6.  After reading chapter 10 of Photoshop CS6 CIAB, I added a simple cloud animation to my video.  The original video/audio track is in Video Group 1.  I pasted a simple JPEG graphic of a white cloud in to Video Group 2, without anything else in that group.    Following the CIAB directions, I was easily able to make the cloud pan across the top of my video.  Ah, this is easy I thought! 
    Then, I added a second cloud, this time it was black.  I added this to Video Group 2, right after the white cloud.  Here is where the troubles began.....  I would highlight the image frame of the black cloud, move the playback head/cursor to the right end of the black cloud clip, then click on the "Position" clock to install a yellow diamond keyframe marker.  At that instant, the selected clip of the black cloud would de-select, and the white cloud clip would select instead.  As soon as the white clould was selected, then I couldn't click and drag the black cloud, as that frame was no longer selected.  So, I would click the mouse back on the black cloud frame, and try and set the second key frame marker at the beginning of the black cloud frame for where I wanted the black cloud to sit at the start of the pan............  But then no motion would take place as I advanced the cursor across the frame. 
    So, I started a Video Group 3, and moved the black cloud into that.  Then, without problems, I was able to use the key frame markers to control the panning of the black cloud across the frame,,,,,,,,,,,  ah, this is easy!  But then, I put in a red  cloud onto Video Group 3, and guess what?  It would not work, the same as before, it only wanted to jump to the black cloud clip as soon as I had set the first key frame marker on the pink cloud.
    Note, underneath the first still image clip that I successfully automated the zoom function, there appears a violet shaded area under that clip, going from the starting key frame marker to the ending key frame marker.  It seems as though this should be telling me something, as only the working automated panning sections have the light violet highlighting.  But I can't move or eliminate that highlighting, or get it to associate with the clip I am trying to work with, after the first instance. 
    I have about 75 little clips I need to pan and zoom in on, and I am NOT going to make an individual Video Group for each clip!  Something is wrong.  I have spent about 5 hours banging my head on this today, and about 2 last night......  
    A) Maybe this is too confusing, but if someone can say what is wrong, I would appreciate any help.
    B) Can you recommend an appropriate video (YouTube or other free source) that would shine light on this?  The only videos show just one simple segment getting automated panning applied,,,,,,,,,,,  my problem does not exist in that simple case. 
    Thanks, Chuck

  • FAQ: What is the Photoshop CS6 13.0.2 update? What is the 13.1 update?

    What updates have been released?
      Photoshop CS6 has two new updates: 13.0.2 and 13.1. The 13.0.2 update is available only for Mac users and updates the user interface to be Retina compatible. The 13.1 is for Creative Cloud subscribers and adds new features to Photoshop CS6.
    How do I get the updates?
      Simply go to Help > Updates to launch the Adobe Application Manager (AAM) to start the download process. You may already have an AAM notification to install these updates waiting in your task bar. You can also download and install the 13.0.2 update from here:
    Photoshop 13.0.2 update for CS6
      Don't see the updates in AAM? Make sure the Adobe Application Manager is updated to 6.2 or later.
    Windows
    Mac OS
      Note: Using this update patch will install the latest version of AAM, which may be greater that 6.2.
      Additionally,
    Updates not available for Creative Cloud products
    What is the availability of these updates?
      The 13.0.2 update is available only for Mac OSX version 10.6 or later. The 13.1 update is only available to Creative Cloud subscribers (including Creative Cloud single-app membership, i.e. subscribing to Photoshop only), but it is for both Windows and Macintosh.
      Some of the Photoshop CS6 System Requirements have changed in order to allow for the features in the 13.1 update.
    Windows XP and Vista are no longer supported.
    The video card VRAM requirements have gone up to 512 MB.
    For more information, see:
    New system requirements for Photoshop 13.1
    Heads Up: Photoshop System Requirement Changes
    Error: "Graphics hardware not officially supported" occurs in Photoshop 13.1 (Subscription Edition)
    Do I need to install both updates?
      No, the 13.1 update also includes the Retina display enhancements added with 13.0.2. So on the Mac platform, you will only be asked or are required to install the 13.1 update if you are a Creative Cloud subscriber.
    What are the new features added for Creative Cloud subscribers in 13.1?
      There have been many new features added to Photoshop CS6, including:
    Smart Object support for Blur Gallery and Liquify — Enjoy the creative freedom to experience non-destructive editing with Blur Gallery and Liquify now that both features offer Smart Object support.
    Conditional Actions — Speed up image processing by creating Conditional Actions. These commands use logic to automatically choose among different Actions based on rules that you establish.
    Crop tool refinements — User-inspired enhancements to the Crop tool allow you to work smarter.
    Copy CSS — Quickly export Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) markup for text and objects, potentially saving hours of work translating your Photoshop designs into web code.
    Load color swatches from HTML or CSS — Import color swatches so that you can easily design incredible websites.
    Improved Type Styles — Ensure consistent type formatting across multiple documents by defining shareable default styles, which are then available in any Photoshop document.
    3D type enhancements* — Enhance 3D type with new GL preview and image-based lights (IBL) improvements.
      For more information on these features, including demonstration videos, please see:
    Release Notes Photoshop 13.1 update
    Membership Exclusive Features
    New Exclusive Photoshop Features for Creative Cloud Members!
    New Photoshop Features and Team Version Headline Major Update to Adobe Creative Cloud
    *Note: Photoshop CS6 single-app subscription is for the Standard version, which does not include 3D features and thus does not include these enhancements. Creative Cloud subscription comes with Photoshop CS6 Extended and includes the 3D enhancements.
    I am not a Creative Cloud subscriber, why do I not the get the 13.1 update? Doesn't my full purchase also qualify me for free updates?
      When you buy Photoshop CS6 outright, you are essentially buying a static product. You still qualify for minor, bug fixing releases like 13.0.1 and 13.0.2, but your purchase will not include any new features, as has always been the case in the past.
      When you subscribe to Creative Cloud, you are not buying CS6, you are subscribing to whatever the latest version of Photoshop is. This means you are immediately entitled to any new features and upgrades as they become available. And this is only one of the many great reasons to be a Creative Cloud subscriber.

    Why do my images appear smaller on my Retina enabled Mac after installing the 13.1/13.0.2 update?
      Retina displays use a higher pixel density than a normal monitor. The individual display pixels are approximately one half the size of previous devices. While working in Photoshop before installing the 13.1/13.0.2 update, as with any other non-Retina optimized application, the number of pixels used is doubled to give a normal, non-miniaturized appearance. This can cause applications to be slightly blurred or pixilated. Thus, when viewing images in Photoshop, the zoom level is effectively double whatever is displayed. At 100% zoom, the image is displayed so that every one image pixel is shown with four display pixels, the same as viewing the image at 200%. With the 13.1/13.0.2 update, Photoshop now displays natively on Retina screens, meaning that image pixels now appear at the much smaller Retina size, thus reducing the amount of screen space they take up when viewed at 100%.
    Photoshop CS6 HiDPI and Retina Display Support FAQ
    Known Issues
      The following are known issues with the 13.1 and 13.0.2 updates but have been fixed in the 13.1.1 and 13.0.3 updates:
    Program error opening files in 13.1 and 13.0.2
    Photoshop 13.1/13.0.2 crashes opening EPS files
    Photoshop crashes after updating to 13.1 or 13.0.2 on Retina display
      For more information, see:
    Photoshop 13.0.3/13.1.1 Updates Now Available
    Why have icons disappeared?
      Due to changes in the number of pixels involved in the UI, some icons can disappear. If the Photoshop Dock icon is now blank, rebooting the computer will refresh the system and load the new HiDPI icon. Some extensions do not have a Retina ready icon and thus will be blank when you have the panel minimized. In most cases like these, we may have to wait until the manufacturer also releases a HiDPI version of the Extension. Additionally, sub-menu headers may become blank when you view the contents of the sub-menu. For example, if you select Filter > Sharpen, while viewing the list of Sharpen, Sharpen Edges, Sharpen More, etc "Sharpen" itself will be blank.
    Additional known issues:

    You might want to wait.  There are some bugs in it and Adobe is working on it.  See threads posted in last few hours.
    Well that might explain things more than I've garnered from the Forums.  I've got a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and a Mac Pro with Lion, both with CS6 Design and Web Premium on them.  The Mac Pro updates Photoshop to 13.0.3, the MacBook Pro is "stuck" at 13.0.1.  It won't update via the "Help/Updates" or by downloading and trying to install manually.  AAM gives an error when trying manually; says to contact support.  Other CS6 apps, i.e. Illustrator, do not update on the MBPro either.  I've uninstalled/reinstalled, deactivated/reactivated, etc., to no avail.  If it means anything, I just deactivated the Illustrator app, quit it, restarted, and the splash screen (which shows the loading progress) showed "Try" on it - haven't noticed that before, and I have not installed any trial downloads.  I'm at a loss as to why one installation of CS6 Design and Web Premium (physical/downoad) will update properly on one computer and not the other.
    Am waiting to see if Adobe has an answer.  The apps work, just don't update...

  • FAQ: What are the known issues so far in Photoshop CS6 Beta

    APPLICATION  COEXISTENCE
    Lightroom 4 Beta + Photoshop CS6 beta -- Editing the same video file simultanously in both applications may result in an error, crash, or blank (transparent) frames. You might see this Photoshop error: "Could not complete the Render Video command because of a problem with Adobe Media Encoder".
    This will only be an issue with Lightroom 4 beta and Photoshop CS6 beta on the same system, editing the same video. The released versions will not have this issue.
    Workaround: Upgrade to LR Release version (even if it's just the trial), or don't open the same file in both apps at the same time.
    CS5 Help fails to launch after install of CS6
    Workaround: Launch the stand alone "Adobe Help" application or reinstall CS5
    CROP
    Crop action shows wrong crop box.Playing an action with a crop step that has dialogs turned on results in a crop box that covers the entire canvas instead of the expected area.
                    Workaround: Ensure that the Crop Tool is selected before running the action or disable dialogs for the action.
    FILTERS
    (32bit OS only) Initial "Merge to HDR Pro" image display and result is black until settings are changed
    Workaround: It will remain black until droplist in the "mode" line is selected, changed and activated, then action appears to be normal.
    Bokeh color is different from preview after render at certain zoom levels on particular image patterns
    Workaround: View image at 100%
    Lighting effects bump map generates artifacts if an alpha channel bump map is used. The resulting preview and final image is artifacted across the gradiated areas of the alpha channel.
                   Workaround: Do not use a gradiated alpha channel as a bump map
    Liquify will perform the filter and save to just part of the photo if you click cancel while it is "finishing processing" a large file.
    LAYERS
    If a vector layer has a center-aligned stroke combined with an inside-aligned layer style stroke, then that vector layer's stroke may not display correctly -- part of the vector layer stroke will disappear as the layer is moved around the image.
    Workaround: Use the "Path Selection Tool" to move your vector around -- alternatively, Change the stroke alignment or remove underlying layers.
    Dragging a selection box while layer filters are applied stops marquee selection from following cursor movement
    Workaround: Even though the graphic of the selection marquee stops, the selection still happens. OR Turn off layer filtering before targeting the layers using a selection box
    TYPE
    Editing text attributes in the Character panel when the layer is locked can result in a crash
    Workaround: Unlock your text layer prior to attribute adjustments in the Character panel
    Setting the menu type>font>preview size to "huge" after opening a saved file caused photoshop to crash
    Workaround: Uncheck Background save in Photoshop CS6
    Style by example or definition not working as expected:
    If any attribute in the Paragraph Panel is set and you create a new Paragraph Style, the new style is based on the default and the override is not cleared.
    DRAWING AND PAINTING
    Paint is offset with Grip Pen- if you select the Soft Low Density Airbrush Preset with Grip Pen paint with swicth facing right with a high tilt towards you the cursor shows the spray should be going up, but it sprays down.
    3-D
    Creating a video timeline and rendering video from two 3D layers may not include ground plane reflections
    Workaround: Use mesh for ground plane instead of 3D engines construct, or duplicate the file and remove the keyframes
    Creating a New background texture after changing lighting presets results in crash
    Workaround: Create the New background texture prior to adjusting lighting presets
    Unable to create a constraint on extruded object with Pillow Inflate setting applied. Further actions may result in Photoshop instability or crash.
    Photoshop may crash when trying to align/distribute constraints from selections of two 3-D extruded objects
    Photoshop may not always save a texture when you paint directly onto the 3d object using Paint on Target Texture setting.
    Photoshop may crash when selecting a different panel filter after the focus has been on 2 fields in the environment flyout with IBL map present
    Photoshop may crash after embedding a 3D layer into a layer group, creating a new 3d object in the group, and then closing the document.
    When changing the color of the lines or points in the 3D scene cross section from the Properties panel, side b color overwrites the color in side A.
    Program Error when adjusting fill value in Layers panel while in Lighting Effects workspace.
    Workaround:You will have to use opacity slider instead of fill slider to pull back the lighting effect
    PLUGINS
    DUPLICATE PLUGINS CAUSE ISSUES ON MAC:
    If you install duplicate plugins or point the additional plugins folder preferences to a duplicate set of plugins (such as, to an older version of Photoshop), then it is possible for odd Photoshop behavior, such as an inappropriate file extension to appear when saving files.
    (example: while performing a "save as"  to JPEG file type, the file format appears to change to .dcm)
    In this case, there may be a duplicate "file formats" plugin that's populating the Save As file types list with duplicates of the same options.
    If there are duplicate file format plugins installed, the Mac OS will remove the duplicates from the list, but you may still see the odd saving behavior.
    Solution:
    Remove the duplicate plugins.
    If you are not sure if you have this issue, but are seeing odd behavior, you can check for duplicates by looking through the plugins listed in the Help > System Info dialog.
    Bridge
    Unable to Copy and Paste in File info in Bridge
    Workaround: Typing info in Manually works, or copy and paste work in Photoshop's File Info dialog
    Install
    Adobe Setup Utility may quit, or error during install. You may see error: "Exit Code: 15"
    Workaround: Create a folder named 'Templates' at "<Windows drive>:\Users\<current user login id>\AppData\Roaming\Micorsoft\Windows\"
    Message saying trial of PS CS6 beta expired,Content coming soon, stay tuned.
    Workaround: re-launch photoshop CS6 beta. This issue should not happen anymore

    1. You can get full support for your camera by upgrading to Lightroom 4. But personally, I would wait for Lightroom 5 since it will be released shortly, probably within the next month. Lightroom 5 will work with Photoshop CS5. The only difference is that Lightroom will need to create a TIF or PSD file that contains all the changes you have made in Lightroom. That's not a big deal, in my opinion. That file has to be created at some point anyway whenever you use Photoshop.
    2. Yes, Lightroom 4 will pass images back and forth between it and Photoshop.
    3.  The upgrade would not break Lightroom 3. It would essentially work the same as it does with your current setup.
    4. If you purchase CS6 it is my understanding you will be allowed to use it indefinitely. This is not true of the Creative Cloud version. Support and updating for additional cameras will cease for CS6. Adobe has announced that they will make Camera Raw 8.1 so that it can be usable with CS6 as far as reading Lightroom adjustments. But any new controls will not be accessible.
    5. So far, Adobe has indicated that they have no plans to making Lightroom a subscription-only offering.
    You are asking your questions as though you are addressing Adobe directly. This is a User-to-user forum. I don't work for nor do I speak for Adobe. I am only giving you the information as I understand it. It seems to me that upgrading to Photoshop CS6 and Lightroom 5 is a "safe" choice. None of us, not even Adobe, really knows what the future will bring. Technology changes so quickly anymore that everything we are doing right now could be obsolete in a matter of a very short period of time. As Adobe changes their marketing strategies I think it will probably motivate some people to look elsewhere. I have Photoshop CS6 and I'm going to upgrade to Lightroom 5. Then I will have to wait and see what develops after that. At any rate, I have tools that I can use for the foreseeable future. If I have to change at some point then I will do so.

  • I have a problem with Adobe Photoshop CS6

    I have a  MacBook Pro 13" Dual-Core i5 2.5GHz/4GB /Intel HD 4000/SD I don't know why the scrubby zoom does't work for me.
    Please help me..

    It's supported when the GPU reports to Photoshop it can provide what Photoshop needs.  Adobe lists those they have tested toward the bottom of this page:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/photoshop-cs6-gpu-faq.html
    Near as I can tell, yours is listed.
    If you are not able to enable the Use Graphics Processor setting, it's likely because either something's installed that interferes with the driver on your system - or the driver is faulty and needs to be updated.  Mac users must get driver updates through Apple with OS updates.
    To diagnose the issue further will require a Mac expert, which I am not.
