PSE 12 - Brush Size Selector Box not saving size

I'm trying to input the numeric px size of the brush and the change will not save...it keeps reverting back to the previous size.
This appears to be a bug in PSE 12. Can someone advise.

Its actually problematic. If you use the slider to adjust the size, it goes up and down in dramatic increments. If you use the bracket button it does the same.
Considering I’m working with layers virtually all the time, its a pain.
In addition it would be nice to be able to use the mouse wheel to roll up and down the size in pixels or measuring units and see it happen visually while playing with the brush over a layer area.
Can this be fixed by adobe with some kind of update? and if so how does one inform Adobe and receive a notification of the bug fix update?

Not able to set custom shortcut for increase/decrease brush size in Photoshop CC 2014 on Win 8

I am using Windows 8 and PS CC2014 and the issue is that I can't assign custom shortcut to the dot. I have been using , and . as decreasing and increasing brush size and it has worked well in every photoshop, even cc2014 in win7 but not in win8 it seems. It lets me to change the , and just tells me that it is in use in somewhere else but i can still change it. But I can't do the same with . as it complains it being used by an application although I have cleared that from the original place and left it empty, photoshop still recognizes it if I press it although it would be empty but I can't assign that key to anything else either.
Small thing but drives me crazy as I had to assign it to another keys and I am using the shortcuts from muscle memory mostly and end up changing the brush when I had an intention to increase the size. I tried to google this but couldn't find anything similar solution.

I didn't manage to get it to work :c Restart won't do anything and I tried to reset the preferences by deleting manually the file with keyboard shortcuts. I managed to get them to the factory settings but that was about it. Everytime I try to assign "." to somewhere (including to the place where it already is), it gives the red x and says "the shortcut is not valid. It is being used by another application." (not sure what it is in english exactly, I happen to have my PS in finnish unfortunately ). Plugin disabled mode did nothing either.
I have changed that shortcut many times to different versions earlier and this is first time I see that message or am not being able to change the shortcut. And I installed the photoshop yesterday from fresh and first thing I did was making the shortcuts and it gave the error from the first use.

Animation not saving in PSE 10

Hello,
I can't figure out why my PSE 10 isn't saving my animation. The animation is nothing major it's just 3 frames each frame with a different letter with an endless loop. However, when I go through the steps to save it for the web as an animation (even checking to make sure it's working correctly in the browser preview - and it is), When I open the actual file after it's been saved it's blank. Not a single bit of animation (which was set at 1.0 before export). I have gone through every tutorial I can find on the internet and they all say the exact same steps (File>Save For Web> Select Gif, animation, loop and delay>OK). I'm doing that but I don't understand why it's not saving it as animation.
I don't know if it's because I have NIK installed that's causing a conflict or what.
Any insight someone could give me would be greatly appreciated. I'm so frustrated at this point I'm about ready to beat the computer.

Eraser tool in Photoshop CS4 acts as if it is transparent when on brush or pencil mode. Block acts like its not transparent at all but there are no options for opacity, flow or brush size. Whats wrong and how to I make the brush and pencil eraser erase co

Eraser tool in Photoshop CS4 acts as if it is transparent when on brush or pencil mode. Block acts like its not transparent at all but there are no options for opacity, flow or brush size. Whats wrong and how to I make the brush and pencil eraser erase completely without having to go over it multiple times?
It started randomly about two weeks ago and I thought it was a glitch that would just go away. But now I am getting sick of using only the block eraser on one size. Help?

The easiest thing to start with is to reset the Eraser Tool.
Right click on the Eraser icon in the tool options bar and then click on Reset Tool.

PSE not saving edited files to the organiser

For no apparent reason my PSE 11 application seems to have developed an annoying glitch whereby part way through an editing process it stops doing as requested in the "Save" options, by not saving edited files as version sets of the original file in the Organiser. The files are saved OK to My Pictures and I then get advised that a file is available to import and I have to import each one, stack it with the original, and put the edited file on top. This is driving me nuts as I have about 1000 photos to edit. What is causing this problem? My only thoughts are that I have c.30000 picture files in the Organiser (but this hasn't caused any problems in adding new files) and that the problem seems to have arisen since I started editing files directly from within an Album.
Help

It's the first time I see that bug mentionned in PSE11, but it's an acknowledged bug in PSE12.

Brush size/hardness shortcut will not work in CC

I constantly used command-option-drag to change the size and hardness of brushes, but now on CC it moves and duplicates my layer. Is there any way to change this back or is there a new shortcut besides using the brackets?

The keyboard shortcut for brush size should be the same in photoshop cc as in photoshop cs6.
Are you sure your not pressing the Command key instead of the Control key?
Your using a mac or windows keyboard?
You haven't remapped the Modifier keys in the System Preferences>Keyboard>Modifier Keys?

Mouse cursor size does not accurately reflect brush size

Mouse cursor does not reflect brush size in Photoshop CS5 on an iMac 10.5 OS. If I try to draw two parallel lines with the edges touching by aligning the edge of the cursor circle, there is a gap between the lines, no matter how hard I set the brush.
I am using a Wacom Intuous 4 mouse, but the problem persists with the standard mouse after I remove the Wacom driver, so the Wacom people say this is a photoshop problem.
Cursor size is larger than the effect size whether I am using the paint brush, history brush, clone or healing brush.

Bingo!
The Mac OS setting seems to have been the culprit
Thanks

Detecting The Current Brush Size

Hi all,
Is there anyway in javascript to detect the pixel size of the current brush? I want to use that value as a variable in a script.
Thanks for any help.

>
> Is there anyway in javascript to detect the pixel size of the current brush?
It's fairly easy to set the current brush size via scripting listener code, but
reading the current value does not appear to be as simple.
If I had to do it, I would create a new (temporary) brush preset, save the
preset to disk, delete the temporary in-memory preset, then pick apart the saved
brush file to extract the brush size.
The last part is the only part that gets a bit tedious. The others can all be
taken care of via SL code. Or, even easier, the PresetsManager script in xtools.

The titles are not saved when i quit

After quiting FCPX the titles i have made are not saved for next time i open a project.
Some titles are saved sometime?

Using FCP-X 10.01, OSX 10.7, 27" iMac 2010, 12 GB memory
I am having the same problem! I am using the Lower Thirds Gradient Edge title and I do change the font from Futura to Comic Sans and change the text size. The 58 large font I change to 55 and the 37 small font I cange to 45 (in case that makes a difference). I have used this for many titles in my project and some have the problem, others do not. It happens, as you say, when you exit the program and then re-launch.
Sometimes the titles go back to the template "Name", "Description", sometimes the title stays as written but the font goes back the generic Futura, and sometimes the font changes to a different one that is close on the font list to the "Comic Sans" that I am using! I did find that if I move the text boxes so that they have any overlap then the problem happens every time. However, I have been more careful with that recently and I am still getting the problem sometimes. Doesn't happen with every title which is what makes it more puzzling.
I have now taken to exporting a project file as soon as I have completed editing (I have 16 projects in the movie I am making) so that I don't lose what I have done!
Any ideas out there?

How to turn off brush size dialog when holdng stylus on tablet.

Yesterday I signed up to try the latest version of Photoshop (CC) from previously working in CS6.
There is a new behavior that when I hold down my stylus for more than a half-second or so on my tablet, a swirling circle icon appears and then a floating brush size dialog pops up.
I can't stand this, and want to turn it off or at least edit the settings, but I can't find anything in preferences about it.
PS CS6 does not have this behavior with the same tablet, so I think it has to do with Photoshop.
Any ideas?

Thanks for your reply. Yep, it's engaged. That button is very important to me. lol
This definitely seems like a Photoshop CC feature, not a tablet issue.
Here is a screenshot of what I mean:
That white circle in the upper left corner of the box comes up and "loads" the dialog when I press down on the tablet with my stylus. I just updated my tablet drivers last week.
This does not happen in Photoshop CS6, which I still have installed and have been using prior to this trial of CC.
Basically, I would at least like to increase the delay time of how long it takes for me to hold down my stylus before this behavior happens, if not disable it altogether. I don't have the need for this feature and it gets in my way constantly.

Brush Size changing

Hi,
i was hoping to find a quick way of changing the size of a brush, other than using the mouse to click on the brush and move the slider.
is there a key I can hold down and move the mouse wheel to change brush size?

Hi,
I have PSE 8 and try to use those brackets. But:
If I want to use bracket itself, I should press AltGr + F = [
If I use only brackets, it does not work.
How do I use:
If I press only [ (that is F), than in PSE Crop Tool opens.
If I press only ] (that is G), than Gradient tool opens.
If I use AltGr + F (G) nothing happens at all (it would be very inconvenient, pressing too much keys...).
Perheaps my keybord is wierd? I use Logitech wireless.
Or is there some other key for those brackets? Or, do I use something that is not the proper bracket? I am really confused!
Does anyone have a solution, please?
Thanks, Natasa

Microsoft Outlook 2010 The delegates settings were not saved correctly. Cannot activate Send-on-behalf-of list. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.

I am trying to assign delegation to a user and I receive the following message.
The delegates settings were not saved correctly. Cannot activate Send-on-behalf-of list. You do not have sufficient permission to perform this operation on this object.
We are using 2010 for the server and client. There are only specific mailboxes that this is happening for after being migrated from Lotus Notes. The user can use their mailfile fine however it is just the delegation that appears corrupted somehow.
I'm not sure how to fix this. I have checked the access through the security tab in ad and that looks fine.
Any help would be appreciated.

I did some more digging and I solved it.
This would be the solution:
In Active Directory Users and Computers
-Click on VIEW
-Click on ADVANCE FEATURES (this is important otherwise you won't see
the complete list in the next steps)
-Click on the USERS container
-Find the problem user's account
-Right mouse the account and click on PROPERTIES
-Click on the SECURITY tab
-In the top box, click on the SELF account
-In the bottom portion of the screen make sure the READ PERSONAL
INFORMATION & WRITE PERSONAL INFORMATION should both be checked for
ALLOW
If you can compare the permissions for 'SELF' with another user you probably should set them accordingly to be safe. I noticed that for the user where setting delegates (SOB) did
not work, more than those 2 permissions were missing.
Good luck!

How can I disable "download error" dialog box when saving a complete web page?

Sometimes, when I try to save a web page as type: "Web Page, complete", firefox displays download error dialog box stating a file "could not be saved, because the source file could not be read."
I don't have a problem with firefox couldn't save that file, but I have a problem with firefox displaying that dialog box, because I have to click OK everytime.
Is there a way to disable that annoying dialog box?

I modified the host file mainly to block ads. But that's not the problem. It's OK for me for firefox to not saving some parts of a page (ads usually within a frame). It's my intention to NOT saving those files. I just want to save the main content of a webpage.
But I'm having a problem with firefox displaying the dialog boxes.

A lot of people panic when they see Photoshop displaying differently from other software. But that's normal and expected. Here's what happens:
1. Photoshop is color managed and performs a document profile > monitor profile conversion when it displays. So whatever the document profile is, Photoshop will display correctly - unless you have CM policies set to "off" (...!)
2. Other applications, including many web browsers, aren't color managed and will just send the file numbers directly to the display. This distinction is extremely important, because there will be a slight difference. Again, that's normal. Photoshop is right and the other apps are wrong.
3. Without color management, it all hangs on how your monitor displays color. Most monitors are so close to sRGB that any sRGB file will display roughly correctly. This is why sRGB is the de facto web standard: it can live without color management. And that's why you should always convert web material to sRGB. Yes, that's the Edit > Convert to Profile option. You can also use Save For Web to do this if you check the appropriate boxes.
