Trouble Creating Brush Tabs in Photoshop CS6

Hi,
I am having problems creating custom brush tabs in Photoshop CS6 using Adobe Configurator 4. I was trying to follow the instructions based off of this screenshot, but cannot seem to link the actions with the panel buttons I am creating.
Here is the screenshot:
I saved my brushes into several different files as specified. I am unexperienced however using Actions in photoshop. I tried recording the loading of each brush file into photoshop and saved them as actions. Regarding Adobe Configurator, I am not sure whether I am supposed to create Action buttons, Script buttons, or Script File buttons to link the brushes in photoshop.
I have tried figuring out on my own but receive error messages such as: Syntax Error, and, this command is currently unavailable.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Here's an example of a simple panel using the Action buttons in configurator 4.
While recording the actions in photoshop for use in your panel:
If you want to load a Brush preset on your list in photoshop, click on the name and then in the next dialog click OK
(as in the Assorted action)
(Append adds to the already loaded presets)
If you want to load a brush preset from your hard drive, use Replace Brushes and then click OK in the next dialog
(as in the Pen Pressure action)
In configurator, the action linked to a specific button needs to be named in the Basic Attributes using the action set name and name of the action as they appear in your recorded actions
This is pdf help for configurator 4

  • Yosemite has created brush lag in photoshop cs6

    I'm experiencing lag issues in photoshop on a new Macbook Pro 2.6 GHz w/ 16 gigs ram. Seem to be one of many with this issue
    There have been numerous complaints to Adobe and it seems the issue lies within the latest OS software.
    See adobe forum link for similar complaints- https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1611990
    Is Apple working on a solution to update the OS?? People have provided plugins but they only seem to bandage the issue without resolving.

    Apple is not immune from releasing flawed drivers.  They get them from ATI just like PC users do.
    Assuming your CPU power is sufficient you would not expect to see a difference in operation.  Certain operations, for example color management transforms, are executed in the CPU rather than the GPU in Basic mode.

  • Can't open ABR brush file in Photoshop CS6. Any solutions.

    Hello,
    I downloaded a set of brushes as an ABR file, pasted it into the 'brush' folder in the 'presets' folder, but when I try to load my brushes I can't see any ABR files in my brushes folder.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    I'd be so grateful if anyone can help.

    If you are using Windows, did you place them in the 32 bit Program Files (x86) folder or the 64 bit Program Files folder?
    Place them in here
    C:\Users\Your Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6\Presets\Brushes
    so both versions can see them.

  • Problems with Brushes & Actions on Photoshop CS6

    I'm using Creative Cloud and Photoshop CS6.
    I work a lot with brushes and actions.
    Everytime I close Photoshop, all my brushes and actions disappear and everytime, I need to upload them onto Photoshop. Over and over again.
    What is going on?
    Thanks for your help!

  • Trouble moving from lightroom to Photoshop CS6 raw editor

    I am having trouble moving from my lightroom 4 to Photoshop camera raw. I can move directly to Photoshop but would like to use the raw editor in photoshop CS6 and not the lightroom editor

    Hi,
    You could use Photo>Edit In>Open as Smart Object in Photoshop
    (or right click on the photo and Edit In>Open as Smart Object in Photoshop)
    Then double click on the smart object thumbnail in the layers panel to open camera raw.

  • Calligraphy brushes persistently crash Photoshop CS6.  Anyone have a solution?

    Running Windows 7 x64.
    We ensured all software and hardware updates were complete.  Issue not resolved.
    We re-installed nVidia vid card drivers; issue not resolved.
    We replaced video card; issue not resolved.
    We tried on a newer machine; same issue, different machine.
    Just strange... as soon as the artist makes use of the calligraphy brushes, Adobe crashes.
    If anyone has any ideas or solutions, we have an artists who'd love to make use of those brushes again.
    Thanks.

  • Create HDR-Photo in Photoshop CS6

    The process of creating HDR-photo in Photoshop is not started when I send Canon Camera Raw photos (.CR) (3 pieces) by means of Bridge-function "tools / photoshop / create HDR pro" to photoshop; photoshop itsself
    open automatically - however, process is not started.

    What do you do after making the changes?  Either opening the edited RAW file, or clicking on  Done will create the sidecar (XMP) files which contain all of the information about your adjustments.  The next time you open that RAW file, it will look for an XMP file with the same file name, and use the information contained in it.
    If you delete the XMP files, it's back to square one! 
    You deleted them to save space?  A typical XMP file is probably less than 10kb, which is a tiny fraction of the size of the RAW file.  You need to rethink your strategy.

  • A possible fix for brush lag in Photoshop CS6.

    I was getting brush lag for a few days after installing CS6. every 4 or so normal brush strokes, the brush would start to lag. And after a few lagging strokes it would go back to normal and then repeat itself.
    The first thing I did was delete the workspaces that I never use (I doubt that fixed the problem).
    Second thing I did was turn the cache levels to 1 and set image previews to "never save" (found this tip online, didn't fix the lag problem but I still kept those settings anyway).
    The third thing (and what I believe fixed the problem) was going to "performance" in photoshop, clicking on the advanced settings for your graphics processor and turning the drawing mode from advanced to basic.
    I never had to do this on cs4 which is why it took a few days of tinkering around to fix the problem. But if anyone else is having this problem go ahead and give it a try. Hope it helps.

    Apple is not immune from releasing flawed drivers.  They get them from ATI just like PC users do.
    Assuming your CPU power is sufficient you would not expect to see a difference in operation.  Certain operations, for example color management transforms, are executed in the CPU rather than the GPU in Basic mode.

  • Can't open files or create new files in photoshop CS6

    Urgent!
    Since I updated photoshop, when I click New or Open File photoshop behaves like I didn't click anything.
    But otherwise reacts to anything else I click on.
    What is wrong?

    Without system info or other details we can't tell you anything. Most likely this is a permissions issue where PS cannot access the templates for new documents or other configuration data nor may it be able to create its swap files. Look into that and verify your file permission as well as turn off security tools that may block this stuff. also run as admin to test.

  • Troubles with update mechanism in Photoshop CS6 installing Camera Raw 7.3 update

    Greetings,
    Attempted an update using the update mechanism from Bridge.  CS6 Design Premium on Mac.  Received a couple error messages when it completed.  Foolishly I did not write down the details. I thought I could just run the update again.  When I attempted this, received mesage saying I was updated. But when I use Camera Raw plug-in within Bridge, it says I am still using version 7.2...
    How may I attain a sucessful Camera Raw 7.3 upgrade?
    I also use Lightroom which sucessfully upgraded,to 4.3 (with Camera Raw 7.3), but I often too use the Camera Raw Plug-in from within Bridge and would like to be on the same 'level'.
    I thank you for any insight.
    Best regards,
    Alan

    Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Camera Raw forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

  • How to remove subject from background using brush tool (Adobe Photoshop CS6)?

    A few months ago I successfully extracted a subject from a background. I used a method I found on a tutorial video. All that I can remember from the method was that the initial steps invovled coloring over my subject with a brush tool. Since then, however, I can no longer find the tutorial video. I am well aware of the existance of the magic wand and may in fact use this technique instead in the future. However, I'd like the opportunity to try out alternatives. Can anyone explain the brush method to me in detail or refer me to a tutorial/thread/etc that can? Other alternatives are also welcome. Many thanks.

    These tasks are tasks for Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, not for Lightroom, which is more an image data base.

  • Mouse cursor will not change to brush cursor in photoshop cs6

    Hello can I ask for your help please.
    My mouse cursor will not change to a paint brush cursor.  I have tried the preferences/cursor selection but it still does nothing, I have also tried resetting the brush tool and still nothing.
    I am also using a wacom but I don't think its my tablet, I am using a IMac.
    Thank you.

    Is the Caps Lock on?

  • Photoshop CS6: Screen flickers black when using brush tool on MBP 2013

    I'm experiencing a flickering black box whenever using large brush sizes on Photoshop CS6 using a Macbook Pro (16GB RAM, 2.8 GHz i7, Intel Iris, Late 2013 13") similar to what is shown on: black flickering boxes on Vimeo.  The issue stops if you: Preferences -> Performance -> Uncheck "Use Graphics Processor" and restart the program or backrev to CS6 13.0.0 (or anything before 13.0.4). 
    I've attempted uninstalling/reinstalling CS6, resetting NVRAM and SMC, and verified the system is all up-to-date.  When booting in Safe Mode the issue is also resolved (as it appears Graphics Processor is disabled).  There appears to have been a similar issue on the 2013 Macbook Air that Apple released a fix for (MacBook Air (Mid 2013) Software Update 1.0) but I do not see anything regarding the Macbook Pro line.  Anyone experience/resolve this issue?
    I've contacted Apple Care multiple times and they say it is an Adobe issue.  And Adobe is insisting is a CPU/GPU driver issue just like the Macbook Air issue Apple already fixed.

    You may be able to get a display driver update from the laptop manufacturer.
    Unfortunately, if none of the workarounds is circumventing the problem for you, and there are no display driver updates that solve the problem, you may want to escalate it to the laptop maker.  They in turn can push through a new display driver update.  They should take responsibility for making your system work with modern, professional software.

  • Trouble creating an animated gif in Photoshop

    Hello. I am having trouble creating a gif in Photoshop (using still images). I get as far as the step where you click the dropdown menu on the top right of the timeline screen (following multiple online tutorials) and don't see the option to "create new layer for each new frame". I get completely different options and none of them seem to be right. I am using Photoshop CC 2014 and am completely udated. Can anyone HELP?
    Here is an example of a tutorial I followed (many say the same thing)
    I get stuck at step 5:

    Here is a screenshot of what I see, Argh!!!
    Can anyone help? Thank you in advance!

    With a document open in Photoshop CC 2014 use menu Window>Timeline to display the Timeline palette. In it you will see a button with a pull-down menu in the center.  The button can create a Frame Animation timeline or a Video  Timeline.  You want to create an Frame animation.  The Palette also has a fly-out menu opened by clicking the little down pointing triangle in its upper right corner.  There are some useful options in it. For example you can create two frames from some layers you have then have Photoshop create frames between them using the tween option. Then save out a PSD,  a Animated Gif and render a MP4.
