Hi,
See if going to Window>Workspace>Reset Workspace works.
Also, you can press the Green Maximize button after resetting the workspace to fit the photoshop window to the desktop.
That button on the bottom you pressed is to change screen modes:

  • Aliasing/moire in the photoshop workspace. What's the deal?

    Take a look at any open file in photoshop. Now zoom to 16%, 33%, or any other odd-numbered zoom level. Notice the aliasing and moire? It has always annoyed me - to the point where I only work in 25%, 50%, 100%, etc zoom levels. I avoid 16, 33, etc altogether.
    But there's got to be a way to correct this. I have CS3 at home, and I use CS5 at work. is there a setting or option to turn on anti-aliasing, or mipmapping, or I don't know, something?
    Andy

    There is some aliasing.  I wouldn't say it's so excessive that I would think to avoid certain "stops" though...
    Can you do one or more screen grabs and post them here to see if you're seeing something most folks are not, or whether you're just more sensitive to it than most?
    Photoshop appears to use a resampling algorithm that's optimized for speed to create one of a number of pre-downsized cache images, and from there it resamples the image further to give you the exact zoom level you want.
     I have recently programmed a similar process in my own software.  Following what OpenGL expects, in my case I downsize a set of "mip maps" by half and half again until I get to the smallest size (1 pixel).  The advantage to using half sizes (4 pixels into 1) is that the code can be quite simple and fast yet still yield a very clean, smooth resample.
    Enabling OpenGL in Photoshop does help smooth out the image between the "stops", but I think there's just no getting around the fact that there is still code left over in Photoshop from times gone by. Don't forget they still fully support non-OpenGL operation.
    The remaining resampling - to odd sizes between "stops" - is done quite handily in the GPU using floating point and the massively parallel processing GPUs provide. This is why in Photoshop they can provide things like the smooth zoom transitions.  Not that many years ago not too many things moved on the screen in real time!

  • I've just downloaded photoshop and bridge cc.  I have two challenges.  First, I don't have a mini bridge option in the photoshop drop down menu or at the bottom of the photoshop workspace.   What could be causing this?  2nd.  From my old version of PS, I

    I need some help!  I just upgraded from PS CS2 to CC photoshop, bridge and lightroom CS6 CC.   It is very different.   I have 2 initial problems.   1)  I do not have an option for mini bridge.  It isn't in my PS dropdown menu nor an icon at the bottom of the PS work space.  Why don't I have a minibridge?     2)   In CS2, I could doubleclick on an image in Bridge and it would automatically open it in PS. That doesn't work with CS6 (creative cloud).  Should it?  Its like the two products are not interacting as they should.  What am I doing wrong?

    Hi Jenwebber,
    Mini Bridge is not available in Photoshop CC 2014. Please refer to below link.

  • How do I change/customize the Photoshop CC splash screen?

    I've looked everywhere, but no correct answer has been found. Please help!
    I DO NOT want to deface the splash screen, but just add our company logo.
    I was able to edit the Illistrator CC just fine.

    The only splash screen that i was able to edit was the Illustrator one, because the raw files were in the Windows folder. I have also tried looking in the PSArt.dll for the encrypted versions, but without any luck.
    The updater process shouldn't remove the custom ones, because I just replaced the new ones with the same file names.
    Please Help!

  • Make text and icons in address bar, tool palet etc. bigger in photoshop workspace?

    Hi.
    Im new to Photoshop so this is a fundamental question. My eyes arn't that great and I find the icons and text in the photoshop workspace very small. I'm sure when I become familiar with them this will be no problem but in the learning phase I find it difficult. I have watched many Utube tutorial videos and notice they have much larger Icons and text (on the actual application itself, not the work pane) and this makes it much easier.
    I remember actually doing this myself but that was several weeks ago, I remember thinking, "I should remember this," but of course I've forgotten and it's frustrating the hell out of me.
    I'm sure it would take me hours to find again by myself and would appreciate it if someone could tell me in a few minutes.
    Thanks.

    There are many elements of the Photoshop UI that are of a fixed size.
    One way to make everything larger is to lower the pixel count for your desktop.  If your monitor is capable of resampling (most modern ones are), everything will be shown larger, as the smaller number of pixels are upsampled to fit the whole display.
    HOWEVER, running a resolution that's different from the "native" or "preferred" pixel count of your display (assuming it's an LCD) will pretty much ensure that nothing will be as sharp as it could be.

  • Anyone know how to reset the lens correction filter? (it's using the wrong scratch disk)

    OK, to back up a little, I recently discovered that photoshop was using the wrong drive for it's scratch disk (it wasn't obeying the preferences I'd set). So, I reset the photoshop preferences file (ctrl-alt-shift & open photoshop).
    Trouble is, the lens correction filter is still using drive "F:" (my only scratch disks are C, D and I). It access it at a root level and creates some temporary files while the filter is in use.
    Does anyone know how I can get photoshop to behave?
    Thanks

  • I have a 16" mac book pro. The bottom of the Photoshop image window is below my screen view..

    I have a 16" mac book pro. The bottom of the Photoshop image window is below my screen view. I cannot shrink my Photoshop window!   I tried changing the Display what else can I do?

    buzzero wrote:
    You cannot size the image window from any corner but the bottom right corner in Photoshop on a MAC
    That was true for many years...but not anymore. Adobe started allowing window resize from any edge (not just any corner, but any edge) a couple of versions ago, on the Mac, to match Windows. On top of that, in OS X Lion, Apple itself now allows window resizing from any edge in any application. That said, even in Lion, I noticed that I had to move the Photoshop CS6 window edges away from the monitor edge before I would get the double-arrow resize pointer. Not sure if that's a bug. Here's a picture of what Photoshop window resizing looks like:
    Also, if resetting workspaces doesn't work, you could try a complete Photoshop preferences reset. Start Photoshop CS6 and press Command+Option+Shift, and a reset dialog box should come up. Click OK.

  • In Photoshop Elements 11, the editor workspace has stopped working and will not open.

    In Photoshop Elements 11, the editor workspace has stopped working and will not open.

    Operating system? and how are you opening it? From a shortcut, from the welcome screen, from the organizer, from the program/application file itself?

  • Photoshop elements won't switch to the editor workspace from the organizer.

    I can't edit more than one photograph per session when using Photoshop Elements 10.
    When I first open up the organizer, I can select a photograph for editing and send it to the editing workspace.
    However, when I try to edit a second photograph in the session, the editing workspace won't load.  Even if I try closing Photoshop Elements altogether and reopening it, the editing workspace still won't load. 
    The only way to get the editing workspace to load again is to shut down my computer completely.
    This has only started recently, and I am unaware of doing anything to cause this problem.
    Has anybody come across this problem and how did they solve it?

    Try making a direct shortcut for the Organizer and Editor. You can then launch the programs directly from the desktop bypassing the welcome screen. This is generally better as the welcome screen leaves background processes running.
    On Windows, Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Then click the browse button and navigate to:
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
    Then click Next; then click Finish
    To launch, try right-clicking on the new desktop icons and choose “Run As Administrator” which often improves stability.
    Then make a direct shortcut for the Editor in a similar manner.
    On Windows, Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New >> Shortcut
    Then click the browse button and navigate to:
    "C:\Program Files(x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
    Then click Next; then click Finish
    N.B. navigate to Program Files on 32 bit systems.

  • Why the size of the tif file is different in photoshop workspace compare to the Preview in Finder?

    1. Why the size of the tif file is different in photoshop's workspace compare to the Preview in Finder?
    Please look at the screen captures.
    Bottom left panel of Photoshop's workspace.
    Finder's Preview.
    2. I have an imac with 8gb ram, and assigned 6gb ram to photoshop use. But when I worked on a 24mb tif file, photoshop was lagging. And at the bottom left panel of Photoshop's workspace, the doc size is something/1gb. The tif file is only 24mb, why is it slow in photoshop? I have a lot of ram.
    Let me know, please.

    Thank you MIchelPM for giving me a very detailed explanation.
    So I understood why the photoshop doc size is bigger when working in photoshop.
    Regarding to your questions:
    1. How full is your Mac's hard drive?
        Not even 30% full, I even have a 1TB backup hard drive connected.
    2. How many applications do you run simultaneously in the background while working in another application?
        I usually only have photoshop or illustrator opened. Sometimes I ran 3-4 tif files at the same time, but when a big file (ex. 24mb tif) gets very slow, I closed all other files and programs, and "purged all" in photoshop, yet that 24mb tif file was still slow.
       I checked photoshop's ram and cpu usage in the activity monitor. Rarely photoshop's cpu usage would hit 100. But when I worked with the 24mb tif file, it would used all the ram that I've allocated to photoshop.
    But the myth is, my coworker who worked with the same file in CS4 with only 4gb ram in their imac don't have photoshop slowed down, when I have double the ram and CS6.
    3. What year, screen size, CPU speed of your Mac?
       I have 27" imac,
       • 2.9GHz  2.9GHz quad-core Intel Core i5 processor (Turbo Boost up to 3.6GHz) with 6MB L3 cache,
       • 1TB (7200-rpm) hard drive
       • NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M graphics processor with 512MB of GDDR5 memory
    4. What version of OS X is your Mac using?
        Mountain Lion with the latest updates.
    5. What version of Photoshop are you using?
       • Photoshop CS6

  • Possible to reset the workspace to mimic the older, classic PS look?

    I really don't like the new workspace / palets layout in PS CC. Does anyone know if it's possible to reset the workspace / palets / interface look to mimic the older, classic PS look that we've all been using for so long?
    -John

    There's nothing radically different about Photoshop CC.
    Don't speak for others.  Many serious Photoshop users have upgraded through every version.  The changes have all been evolutionary.
    That said, for more specific help, maybe you could supply a little more info?  How about describing specifics, such as what you're seeing that's different, how you'd like it to look.
    For all you've written, it's possible that you may just want to disable the Application Frame in the Window menu.  We can't really tell.

  • My 27" Imac (A1312/EMC2390) keeps shutting down unexpectedly with no warning or "screen of death". I replaced the power supply, reset the SMC, and zapped the PRAM, but the problem continues. Can anyone help me?

    My 27" Imac (A1312/EMC2390) keeps shutting down unexpectedly with no warning or "screen of death". So far I reset the SMC, and zapped the PRAM. I even replaced the power supply but the problem continues. My error and system logs seem unhelpful too. Can anyone help me out?

    You can get a shutdown like that if the computer gets too hot. Make sure the air intakes on the bottom and the exhaust vent on the top are clean and are not blocked by something in your workspace like papers or the back of the computer being too close to part of the furniture. You need a good six inches (15cm) of clearance between the exhaust slot and other objects or surfaces.
    Anti-virus/internet security software, especially the "pay for" kinds, can increase operating temps. So can third-party backup software furnished with many "name-brand" external hard drives.
    Fan motors and/or temperature sensors can fail. If you have the original grey disks that shipped with your iMac, find the on that has Apple Hardware Test (AHT) and run it. If you have a failed heat sensor or fan motor, it will detect it with an error code containing "SNS" if it's a bad sensor or "MOT" if its a bad fan motor.
    AHT instructions here:
