RETURN/ENTER in type tool

Type tool quits after return/enter in stead of start a new line. How to fix it? (Reset tool doesnt help)

Return and Enter are two different keys.
Return goes to the next line, Enter commits the text editing.
The Return key is on the right side of your keyboard, just past L;'
The Enter key is normally found on the bottom right of the numeric keypad, and left off of many laptop keyboards.
Yes, many cheap keyboard makers mislabel the return key as "enter", but the two keys give different key codes/characters.
If you don't have an Enter key on your keyboard, then control/command-return does the same thing as Enter.

CS5: Type tool entering text in a tiny transform box

Everything else seems to be working correctly (at least those parts I use).
At some point, several months ago, my sister and I were playing with transform (by phone, we are in different states) -- she had taken a Photoshop class and wanted to try to duplicate something.
I tried using my type tool yesterday, and couldn't see anything when I typed. (White background, black text, Arial, 14 pt, 100%)
I've tried clearing type presets.
I finally tried blowing it up to 500% and saw a small, gray font-like image where I was typing.
I held down Ctrl and played with the transform box: if I expanded the box, my text is there.
I've tried clicking on everything at the top when in transform, but have no idea what I'm doing.
I have no idea how to get my type tool entering text in the regular way.
Please help.
Thanks!

The resolution of the file I was working on was 2 (I obviously didn't add or deleted the '7' that was supposed to be in front of it)!
Thank you ever so much, CB! I spent a couple hours on this and really appreciate your help and insight.

CMD T to select the Type Tool

Hello
Cmd T on the Mac selects the Type Tool. But after the typing is complete I can't press "V" to get the Selection Tool. It will just type in the letter V.
Is there a keyboard short cut to get out of the type tool.
The solution that I have is to do Cmd + B which selects the Brush and then I can do any single letter to get the other tools.
Is there another way that eliminates the extra step??
Thanks

Shortcut for exiting Type Tool?

This has been bugging me forever. Does anyone know a keyboard shortcut for exiting the type tool? If you hit 'escape' you lose all your changes. It annoys me that I have to mouse over and click on another tool just to exit the text editor.

Receiving attachments with carriage return / enter after filename extension

Hello All,
For a while already I am seeing carriage return / enter / newline after the filename extension of (some of) my attachments.
Clicking the attachment fails to open it. The only remedy I have is to save the attachment, navigate to it, click the filename, and remove the extra newline after the filename.
It then asks me if i want to use the new extension, for example
Would you like to use
".pdf"
instead of
".pdf
(I had to cut up the sentence above to make the bogus CR visible)
After agreeing the file works fine and opens normally ( + Icon changes back to preview icon).
The file shows up as "symposium 2010.pdf??" in Terminal.
and
/Users/vincent/Desktop/symposium\ 2010.pdf
when pasted in vi - yes the third white line is included.
Did anyone see/solve this issue before? Wading through the forum here did not turn up a solution...

Storage location-determination of return-deliveries (delivery type RL)

Is there a difference between picking storage location-determination of return-deliveries (delivery type u201CRL Returns (pur.ord.)u201D/return to vendor) on 4.6C compared to ECC6.0? Is there a SAP-note?
Within 4.6C-system the storage location is determined based on the customizing settings (Logistics Execution \ Shipping \ Picking \ Determine Picking Location \Assign Picking Locations).
Within ECC6.0-system the storage location in the return-delivery is always the storage location that is entered in the Return-Purchase Order. It seems like the customizing-settings are no longer beeing taken into account.

This storace location-determination of return-deliveries (delivery type RL) in customozing that you mention is only true within the 4.6C-system. Within the ECC6.0-system the storage lcoation is always the one that is entered in the return-purchase order. In ECC6.0 the customizing settings you are refering to a no longer valid for deliveries with delivery type RL.
The questions is why/ and is there an OSS note.

Type Tool Problems. Photoshop CC. on Windows 8

Hi, When I try to use my type tool in photoshop the photograph I am trying to enter text on to goes completely black and I cannot see what I am typing. I am sure the solution must be simple but I cannot find it. I want to watermark my photos and it is turning into a bit of a problem. All the videos I have watched show that entering type should be a simple task but I click on the type tool then click on my photo to commence typing and the photo goes completely black. Any help will be very gratefully appreciated.

That sounds like it may be caused by windows 8 and the display driver installed. Check the display makers web site to make sure you have their latest windows 8 device driver installed.

Single key to deactivate Type tool and activate Selection tool ??

The set of keystroke shortcuts on the CD that comes with Deke McClelland's InDesign One-on-One books has a shortcut that deactivates the Type tool and activates the Selection tool by pressing Enter key on the keypad. I can't even imagine working with text in InDesign without that shortcut!
Question: Has anyone created a script to do the same thing in Illustrator? I don't know if Deke has included a similar shortcut for Illustrator because I as of CS3, the only Illustrator One-on-Ones from Deke are on CD ROMs that cost upwards of $150 on Amazon which I will not be purchasing (snarl).
Thanks in advance.
Toni

Hi Jacob,
Good to hear from you.
Actually, I want to activate the Selection tool outside the active text box, and often just deactivate the Type tool so I can get to another tool using it's keystroke short cut. For example, to go from the Type tool to the Frame tool without having to use the intermediate step of Command+click+V. Deke's shortcut allows me to keep one hand on the keyboard or the mouse and just perform a single action to deactivate the Type tool. The Enter key on the keypad is ideal for me because I mouse with my left hand.
Cheers, T

Type Tool tips-Navigating through & editing text

Type Tool Tips for Photoshop
Most folks understand how to create text in Photoshop. You select the Type Tool from the Toolbox, or you tap the "T" key on your keyboard. Then, in the Character Palette you set the attributes for font, color, size, etc. A simple click in your document window will mark the spot where you may begin typing unbounded "point" text. Or, you click and drag in your document window to create a paragraph text box. Type out your text, then tap your "Enter" key to commit the text to its new layer.
It's pretty straightforward, and Photoshop offers a decent set of tools to adjust how your text looks. One hitch that long-timers will tell you about, though: It's generally accepted that Photoshop isn't the best application to be using if you have to have to create a lot of text because it doesn't have all of the adjustment functions necessary to produce large amounts of professional-quality text. Well, the real world being what it is, sometimes, and for some users, Photoshop is the only application they have to work with; might as well make the best of it, right?
So, once you have text entered onto a layer in your document, how do you then reselect it either all of it or just a portion and navigate through it easily? What follows will answer some of those questions.
Note: The keyboard shortcuts that follow assume you are using a Mac. If you're using Windows, substitute the CTRL key for "Command."
Double-Click on the boxed 'T' thumbnail on the desired Text Layer in the Layers Palette. This will select and highlight all of the text on that layer.
Then, if you want, you can use some keyboard shortcuts to move the "Blinking Bar" Type Tool cursor through the text.
Assuming that your text is enclosed in a click-and-dragged out paragraph text box...
When all text is highlighted:
"Home" key will move cursor to the beginning of first line of text.
"End" key will move cursor to the end of last line of text.
When text is NOT highlighted, but cursor is flashing within the text:
"Home" key moves cursor to the beginning of the line it's in.
"End" key moves cursor to the end of the line it's in.
Command + "Home" moves cursor to beginning of first line of text.
Command + "End" moves cursor to end of the last line of text.
Shift + "Home" selects text from cursor position to the beginning of the line it's in.
Shift + "End" selects text from cursor position to the end of the line it's in.
Shift + Command + "Home" selects text from cursor position to the beginning of the first line of text.
Shift + Command + "End" selects text from cursor position to the end of the last line of text.
Arrow keys can also be used to select text in various ways.
When your cursor is flashing within the text:
Shift + Right Arrow cumulatively selects text one character or space at a time, from cursor position, progressing toward the end of the text.
Shift + Left Arrow cumulatively selects text one character or space at a time, from cursor position, progressing toward the beginning of the text.
⇒ Add the Command key to select whole words at a time, in either direction.
Shift + Up Arrow selects text from cursor position back to the next line above the cursor.
Shift + Down arrow selects text from cursor position forward to the next line below the cursor position.⇒ Add the Command key to select text starting from the cursor position, and accumulating either back to the beginning of the first line, or forward to the end of the last line.
That covers most of what (or more than) you need to know to navigate through and highlight text. There are some other key combos, and now that you have an idea of what to do, I'll let you experiment and discover them on your own
Type Tool Visual Indicators
Keep a close eye on your Type Tool cursor as you move it near to and away from a hunk of text in your document window; it will change form to indicate different functions.
When you see it as a plain old "I-Bar" cursor, like so: ...that means that it's ready to select a position within that text, or to select a hunk of that text.
When you see a "boxed I-Bar" cursor, like so: ...that means your cursor is outside of the selectable area for the current text, and is ready for you to click (to start right in typing some unbounded point text) or click-n-drag (to create a paragraph text box). This will, of course, create a new text layer.
How can you get a visual indicator of where that selectable area for current text begins and ends without blindly moving your Type Tool cursor around the text? Double-Click on the "Boxed-T" thumbnail in the Layers Palette. The text for that layer will become highlighted in your document window. See the black area that surrounds the text? That shows you the actual space occupied by the characters. If your Type Tool cursor is inside this highlighted area, it will display the plain "I-Bar" cursor. If it's outside of that area, it will display the "Boxed I-Bar" cursor.
Want to FORCE Photoshop to create a new Type Layer, even though you're seeing the plain I-Bar cursor? Hold the SHIFT key, then either click, or click-n-drag out a paragraph text box.

Myriad Pro OTF v 2.102, Regular
Mac OS X 10.8.2
8 GB RAM - 2.8 GHz
Illustrator CS6 16.0.3
No extra plug-ins beyond the initial install
Double-clicking with the Arrow cursor will select existing type.
The Type Tool jumps to a different location when creating a new block, like I have snap-to-grid turned on.
Cursor is different than previous versions. After setting preferences to "Type Object Selection by Path Only" the cursor is behaving more like I expect it to. But… it still is working oddly. New doc, created a new type object, clicked arrow cursor to deselect it, then tried selecting it with the Type Tool. Creates a NEW path.
Cursor looked like "Area Type Tool" in doc 1, but does not behave that way.
Until I straighten this out, I'll stand by my original statement. It's unuseable.

Illustrator CS2 crashes when Type Tool used

Can anyone help please?
I'm running CS2 on Win XP Pro
When I click on a document to enter text the program hangs and then crashes.
I have also lost the font preview on the toolbar.
I've tried deleting the Preferences folder and have removed all fonts except Win System fonts (and reinstalled them). I have reinstalled the whole of CS2 but still have the same issue.

Hi all,
I am having trouble with Illustrator CS2 as well. I have it as part of Creative Suite 2 on Windows XP.
When I use the type tool, the cursor blinks as expected but the app hangs as soon as I type a letter.
I have deleted the files suggested above and reinstalled Illustrator (twice now) but it still happens. I did not uninstall and reinstall the whole suite, just the Illustrator element.
Am at a loss as I really need to use this app today.
Can anyone please help!
Thanks
Laura

PS CS6 Type tool is backwards

Photoshop CS6 (reinstalled fresh today from Creative cloud)
Mac OSX 10.8.2

Fontcase 2.1.1
Hi I am having trouble with the type tool. it is putting all punctuation at the start of the sentance.
Example i want to type
This is doing my head in!
What i get is:
!This is doing my head in (exclamation mark at the start of the sentance)
So far I have:
Reinstalled photoshop
Changed the language prefs from East Asian and Middle Eastern (both give the same result)
Trashed all my prefs
Checked other apps (all fine)
Used different typefaces (all act the same)
I found this screenshot on a forum that looks perfect:
Howerver my paragraph panel does not have that option.
I have read this thread: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1056427
And there is nothing there to help.
Anyone help me out with this?
Thanks
Neil

You can solve this, doing as follow bellow:
Enter Type menu
-Language Options
-Click middle eastern feature
Then, the panel above will be activated and you can change to fix this issue when writing.
It's work for me. But its realy annoying.... Adobe should do something about, since it was working and then..... start to do this issue when typing.

After installing PS CS6, PS CS5 Type tool no longer works

After doing the basic installation of PS CS6 Beta, opening and closing 1 file as well as closing the CS6 Beta program then returning to PS CS5, I can no longer make editable text fields, or edit existing text fields in any document - new or old.
Error message when trying to edit an existing text field (clicking inside the text): "Could not complete your request because of a program error"
Error message when trying to create a new text filed (using the type tool clicking and dragging on the canvas): "Could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine from being initalized"
CS6 must be doing something to previous versions of CS5, need this fixed asap - people still need CS5 to work!

The type tool in my PS CS5.1 no longer works. And i'm nervously clueless as to why it suddenly quite working. All other Adobe, and non-Adobe, apps appear to be working as needed, but Photoshop has suddenly decided to go rogue from the font set.
System Mac OS X 10.7.3
Processor: 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7
3rd Party Font Handling software: FontExplorer X Pro 3.1.1
I'm seeing the same "Could not complete your request due to program error" message upon launch of Photoshop and when attempting to use the Type tool.
Have ran the font test, as recommended in this discussion thread, and was alarmed to see the test results reveling that all 137 of 137 fonts are supposedly bunk. How can this be?
Any thoughts, tips, help would be uber appreciated,

Totally frustrated. Need help with type tool in CS2.

Must start by admitting I'm embarrassed to have to even find myself asking this question. . . But after working with PageMaker since Ver. 2.0 in the early '80s, finally was forced to switch to CS2 when I had to replace my Mac/Intel computer 3 (or was it 4 years ago?). Did so fighting and cursing all the way, and I'm still having trouble typing in Photoshop . . . not just today, but EVERY TIME I sit down to work on a project.
Most are brochures and display ads, and though friends and colleagues insist my real problem is that I should be setting them up in InDesign, I'm convinced it's easier to work on graphics and text simultaneously in Photoshop.
My problem is in grabbing text blocks in order to edit them. Occasionally I'm able to highlight the text I need, but usually I keep getting new type layers instead. I know it should not be this difficult, but as soon as I select the text with the cursor, I get a new, empty text box.It doesn't seem to matter if I am in the layers or edit mode.
I may not be the most technically advanced Adobe user, but I'm not stupid. What the heck am I doing wrong? Can someone please steer me right?
