Polygonal lasso tool not working with stylus on Surface Pro 2

Hi guys,
I'm new here so please bare with me if I'm posting in the wrong place or don't make immediate sense.
Hardeware / software used: surface pro 2 and I'm running photoshop CS5.
Problem is a fairly basic one: I am trying to make basic selections using the polygonal lasso tool (using the stylus that comes with the tablet) but it simply will not work. All I get when I touch the stylus to the screen is the circle that appears then fades. If I attach the keypad and try using that then it works no problem at all.
Does anyone have any ideas as to whether there is a particular setting that I need to switch on or off e.g. something relating to pressure sensitivity (although not sure why this would affect this particular selection tool)?
I've searched the web and come up with nothing so far so any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks for your time
Scott

same problem on surface pro 3 !!!!
and i think quite significant, for lot of artists using polygonal lasso a lot (including me). How come that the stupid surface cannot work properly

  • Tools not working photoshop cc 2014 surface pro 3.

    I tried resetting tools. I've even reinstalled the program. I can select any tool but when I go to work on the canvas, no cursor, nothing. I don't have any of these problems in illustrator. Don't know what else to do. Has anyone else had this problem? Thank you

  • Since Reader X previous view tool not working with linked documents

    We have many linked pdf documents. After upgrading to Acrobt Reader X we can´t go back to the parent document by using the "previous view" command. In older versions we can use this function to navigate back. Is there an option in the preferences to reactivate this possibility?  

    I have been told by Adobe support that this is not a bug, but a security feature.
       Our company has, over many years, developed for our most important software application a PDF help system with hundreds of books and thousands of pages. There are myriad links between and within the books. In order to make navigation through this morass easier, we have provided our users a starting "Main Menu" with links to the books. We also set it up so that only one PDF is open at any given time ("open in same window" option), otherwise a user could end up with hundreds of open PDF documents on their taskbar or desktop. We also have our users take advantage of the "Previous View" mechanism to make it easier to navigate while keeping only one window open at a time.  (The browser "Back" button trick will not work with PDFs that have been closed).
      However, Since version X of the Reader, the Previous View mechanism will not work with PDFs that have been closed. That is, you can only get back to a previous view in another PDF if it is still open. As mentioned above, this could leave our users with hundreds of open PDFs, and thus it is not an option for us. But Adobe has ignored our pleas.
      You must vote with your feet; that is all Adobe understands. Adobe does not care about our needs and we have given up on them. We are currently telling our users:
      "If you use a non-Adobe PDF reader, you will be able to install it on a system alongside any version of Adobe Reader, including version 10. We have found that Tracker Software makes an excellent free product called PDF-XChange Viewer, which may be downloaded HERE. PDF-XChange has a smaller footprint, is faster, and has more features than Adobe Reader, including a 64-bit version for Windows XP/Vista/7.
      To set up this program to optimally use our help system, go to Preferences, and under "General," specify that the Documents Layout be Single rather than Multiple. Then you will be able to use the Alt keys with the arrows, or the Previous/Next View buttons on the toolbar, with closed PDFs."

  • Lasso tool not working at all. Please help!

    Hi Community. I just started the CC version of Illustrator and the lasso tools isn't working. I am able to select the tool and draw an outline with it, but nothing is selected when I make a closed loop. I cannot select anything in any way with the lasso tool. I have made sure that I am circling strokes that are on the active layer. Please help!! I'm currently stuck in my project as a result.
    -A

    What OS do you have, have you updated to thte latest  dot verison eg: 10.9.1?
    Reset your Illustrator preferences? Try making a new documnet really simple, to see if this happens on all documennts.

  • Remote not working with new Mac Book Pro

    Had my 2.16 MBP for 2 days and cannot get the remote to work. The IR is not disabled, but I cannot select the UNPAIR option so I am guessing the remote is not paired with the MBP.
    I am pressing the Menu and FFD button, but nothing appears to happen.
    Has anyone got any suggestions as to what to try next ?
    Thanks
    Mark

    Hi Mate,
    I read this once somewhere hope it helps..
    A great way to tell whether your remote control is working or not is to point it at the camera while you have Photo Booth running. The camera somehow picks up the IR signal and translates it into the visible, which I think is hilarious. It works with any IR remote control.
    If your remote is eating up batteries that fast, it might have some kind of short circuit. I'd get it replaced.

  • Photoshop CS6 Brush pressure sensitivity not working on the Microsoft Surface Pro.

    I have just purchased a Microsoft Surface Pro in anticipation of running Photoshop on it.  I installed Photoshop and tried to do some sketches.  I created a new file and started sketching.  I Immediately felt like something was wrong.  I checked my brush settings and saw the pressure sensitivity was not available.  Everytine I tried to turn it on it was marked with an exclamation point. 
    Does anybody know if Adobe is supporting the new pressure sensitive pen from microsoft, or if there is some sort of setting that I am missing?  I have tried sketchbook pro 2011, and that works amazingly well with the pen.  I hope someone can help me along here, because if this tablet can truely run photoshop, it would be a Game Changer.

    Just curious.... has any of you tried the shape dynamics in photoshop and turning on pen pressure?
    and in illustrator to modify the size to pressure and variation to maximum? (and of course select that brush preset that you just modified and draw with it using SHIFT+B for blob brush or B for regular brush)
    I am also interested in purchasing a Surface pro so please report if this helps.
    what I recently discovered in other forums is that Sketchbook Pro works flawlessly in desktop mode. Sketchbook Express in the APP mode doesn't support pressure yet.
    there is no official confirmation that the surface pro uses a wacom digitizer, however a few artist friends of mine have gone to the microsoft store... brought their own wacom pens (cintiq 15x pen - older models that works with general tabletpcs) and the pro recognized it. which means that it is a wacom digitizer. it wouldn't make sense if a wacom pen works with a different digitizer board like N-trig.
    also read in another forum about adobe using wintab and windows 8 wintab drivers are not there yet.
    anyway... I'd be glad to know if this works or not
    thanks!

  • Retouch tool not working with grayscale images

    Upgraded to both Snow Leopard and Aperture 2.1.4 yesterday. Today I notice that the retouch tool doesn't effect black and white images. Still works fine with color, but not BW. Don't know if it's SL, 2.1.4, or both, but really annoying, as much of my photography is BW negs, and almost every scan requires some retouching for dust, hairs, etc.
    Is this a know issue that's being addressed? Tried merely reverting to Aperture 2.1.3, but that installer doesn't execute --- says "Aperture 2.0 or later required for this update", then quits.
    Jeff.

    Having a similar issue here too. Found this thread after doing a search as I've just started editing some old B/W images I had scanned ages ago.
    Slightly different here though, I'm only seeing this on some images, not all. All my images were scanned at a similar time, on the same scanner, using similar settings when scanned (greyscale, jpg etc.). Some of the B/W ones will clone/repair fine, others do nothing.
    I can see where they differ too. When they work, you can see the area smudging as the tool is drawn over the defect. On images were it doesn't work, the defect is visible through the repair marker.
    These aren't mission critical luckily, as they're only some family photos I'm tarting up.
    However, surely such tools in Aperture are just a bonus. It is essentially a media manager, and is clearly stated that more advanced editing will need an external app.
    It is a shame that these don't work too well though. Like some other comments, I also seem to find other tools almost useless - sharpening and noise reduction to name a couple.

  • Subselection tool not working with IK joint?

    It could be the old problem of something else running in the background. What other porgrammes/applications do you have operating at the same time? Turn them off and see if the problem disappears

  • FireWire ports on display not working with Snow Leopard Mac Pro

    I just bought a new quad core Mac Pro with Snow Leopard and I have connected it to my three year- old Apple 23 inch cinema display and everything works fine....except for the Firewire 400 ports on the display. They no longer recognize my external iSight camera or external hard drives. And of course the devices will not connect to the computer's 800 ports. Anyone come across this, or have any solutions? I've tried connecting and reconnecting and have repaired permissions. Thanks.

    This means that my Firewire 400 ports on the display are no longer supported by the computer?
    They need a FireWire connection to the computer. With older computers, the FireWire cable from the display would plug in to a computer FW400 port to provide the connection. With FW800 only computers, you need the adapter.

  • Why is my iSight camera is not working with the new Mac Pro?

    I connected the iSight camera which is a FireWire 400 into a Sonnet FireWire 800 adapter, and connected that into a FireWire to ThunderBolt adapter and plugged directly into the Mac Pro running Mave. I receive power, noted by the green light coming on, but the computer does not recognize a camera. Does anyone have an idea why this is.

    We are all busy with many other problems in Pages 5.
    Unless you have found some real reason to use Pages 5 just go back to Pages '09 which should still be in your Applications folder, until Apple sorts this all out.

  • Microphone not working with XFi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro

    Lo all,
    I bought a new PC last week: OS is Vista Ultimate 64 bit, headset is Sennheiser PC350, soundcard is as per subject line to this thread. The sound is working fine - awesome in fact. But when I went to configure Ventrilo I realised that my mic was not communicating. I tried a recording but it would appear that the mic is not currently being detected. I went into the Control Panel/Sound and can see that no mic is being detected. Assuming my headset is working fine how do I tackle this? Is this a detection issue? Is this a volume/mute?
    Any and all help,
    LK.

    Anyone able to help?
