Why doesn't Photoshop have a glyphs panel?!

I look for it every time I want to add a glyph because both Illustrator and InDesign have it. I have to open Illustrator, type the glyph, and then copy and paste it into Photoshop. It's a very inefficient process....

All the apps have different teams for development, so there is little communication between teams. Features that are in one app, either may not work in other apps, or require all new code to be written. A Glyph panel has had a lot of request by many people. Hopefully Adobe will add this feature to PS soon.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

    That's odd. Does this mean that you want to have the request or that you can't see the photos even though you enabled it over the privacy/photos?
    If you enable it - it's not necessary to get the request. If you want the request the safest way to get it back is to reset the privacy settings by going to iPad settings/General/Reset/Reset Location & Privacy
    thanks,

  • Why doesn't PS have auto-recover?

    This is probably the one thing about PS that bugs the crap out of me. If Photoshop crashes while you are working something, it is lost forever. I was working on a digital painting a couple of days ago, and I went to save it, and PS crashed.
    Every other program (Word, Powerpoint, Excel etc.) has an auto-save/auto-recover feature. Why doesn't PS have one? It seems silly for it not to.

    This has been discussed in several other threads, so do a search. As far as I'm concerned any such request doesn't make sense given how PS currently works and how the file format is structured. There's simply no realistic and safe way to save potentially large files in a few (micro-)seconds before a crash nor would that work as an auto-backup. Too many external factors and constant disk activity would have other negative side-effects... If you get my meaning: It's one thing to save a few kilobytes from a Word document in a few blips, but a totally different one shuffling around gigabytes.

    Why doesn't apple have a file of events that ties to the iCal program and the Address book file? By having that relationship it seems that you could call up all of the events tied to a customer while in the address book or likewise call up all of the events tied to a contact that was in the iCal program as a scheduled meeting. Even in the to do's you could easily look back at the events tied to an individual so as to bring yourself up to speed with what you were doing with the individual in mind.

    For one thing, true call blocking (ie. where the call NEVER actually connects through to your number) can only be done by the service provider at their switches.
    The best a device can do is allow the call to connect, and then use the caller ID information to compare that to a list of allowed and a list of disallowed caller IDs.  That is a feature known as blacklisting, but it is not the same as actually blocking a call completely.
    So as suggested, contact your carrier and ask what they can do for you.

  • Why doesn't Apple have a insurance program to cover stolen devices

    Why doesn't Apple have a insurance program to cover stolen devices?
    As a apple customer I feel that is very important that we are  offered some type of insurance plan to cover our devices if it is stolen besides the AppleCare which is offered that only cover software issues. We as consumers spending hundreds to thousands of dollars on our devices and if it is stolen we are not compensated for it at all which I think is totally unfair. We the consumer put our lives and in some cases our life savings into our devices and this should be taking into consideration By implementing a  insurance plan which allows consumers to choose the type of coverage plans allows the customer to feel more secure with there purchase.

    Well...   Usually the deductible is high enough to make it barely worth the claim.  Once you claim you may also find your insurance rates go up for several years.  The rule of thumb is don't claim unless you're talking at least $1000.  In that regard it could be useful if somebody offered separate insurance, though I suspect one might wonder why one was paying $50 or whatever per year for insurance on a single item versus just paying a bit more for a lower deductible on the homeowner's that would cover a host of items.
    Qbangz:  I have almost always had renter's insurance or the equivalent, even when I stayed in a dorm at college.  If somebody decides not to have it then that's a personal choice, but it is available.

  • Why doesn't iPhones have go keyboard

    Why doesn't iPhones have go keyboard

    Unless Apple decides to incorporate it with the iPhone and other iOS devices, 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone API's for security and other reasons which Google is clueless about with Android. The most insecure mobile operating system by far.
    Apple plans to incorporate some of that under iOS 8.

  • Why doesn't Flash have the option to publish to .flv?

    Why doesn't Flash or Adobe Media Encoder have the option to publish or covert .swf to .flv?
    Any suggestions on free .swf to .flv coverters?

    Thanks, kowboy.  I've just seen a few of those video conversion tools that specifically advertise .swf to .flv conversion.  They may degrade the quality and make certain features not work just like when you convert to .avi.  I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with any of those tools.
    I know this is a fairly odd situation.  Both myself and the other flash developer advised that they not use Flash to create 5 min plus videos and then wrap them in .flv flash players.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop always generate a layer mask

    I believe it was in CS4 that Adobe expanded the use of automatic layer masks ... perhaps it was with adjustment layers (I'm not quite sure)
    I don't know about others, but it would save me considerable time in the long run if every new layer, (whether it is generated as a copy, from a plug-in, as a cut, or as a new blank layer) recevied an automatic layer mask. It takes no file space, but more often than not I find myself needing one. It sure would be nice to jump right into masking rather than having to first create the layer mask. Why did they stop at adjustment layers?
    Am I alone in this?
    thanks

    Adding layers like Text, Raster and smart objects never have had automatic layers mask added.  Adding adjustment layers always came with an automatic layer mask until CS4.  Adode introduced bugs in CS4 when they added the adjustment panel these bugs have been carried forward into CS5 and CS6. Adobe added two options in the adjustment panels fly-out panel.  These options are designed to be global, not just adjustment panel options.  These options only work sometimes when changed from their default settings.  When changed from their default settings they try to change Photoshop historic default operation.  When you change Photoshop default operation Action, Scripts and Plug-ins that add adjustment layers may not work correctly.  Adobe should fix Photoshop and remove the two bad Adjustment Panel fly-out options. The Adjustment Panel fly-out menu option to not add Layer masks can not be safely set, same goes for the option to always clip added layer mask, if you use Actions, Scripts and Plug-ins that add adjustment layers.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop support read/write of .mpo files?

    I am actually blown away that I cannot find a single Photoshop plugin that reads and/or saves .mpo files. Does somebody know why? And why isn't anyone talking about this format? I find it hard to believe that no one in the entire Photoshop Windows forum has ever wondered about Photoshop's complete lack of or interest in support for .mpo files.
    If nobody knows how to read/write .mpo files directly through Photoshop, perhaps someone could point me to some documentation for writing a plugin for it. It's a really really simple file format--there's no reason that a plugin shouldn't be available already.
    Thanks in advance for your support.

    Well wave of the future or not. its beening pushed hard. That is in a way good for us the consumers.. choice is always good.
    3d tv's and monitors require at least 120hz in order to function. what does that mean for people who spend all their time in front of a monitor?
    Bringing about the availablilty of 120hz and beyond flat panels.
    Many are people are prone to getting migrains due to refresh rates 60 hz or less, Most people getting migrains from sitting at work in front of a 60 hz monitor all day long, and do not even realize it.
    I happen to be one of those people who get migrains, especially if I am doing artwork for 8 - 10 hours.
    I just picked up a 120 hz monitor like 2 weeks ago cause I am a techno junky and love my toys, it is the asus one that comes with the Nvidia glasses.
    There is nothing wrong with my other monitor, a 24 inch HP monitor. Its a 1920 x 1200 5ms responce time 60hz monitor.
    I didn't think i would really even notice the difference between a 120 hz and 60 hz monitor.
    Boy ohh boy was I ever mistaken about not Noticing. sitting side by side, to me the picture difference is amaizing. Now i have not had an oppertunity to do a real weekend artwork fest but that will come with time.
    The 3d features with the glasses on, I think are very cool in games its extreemly noticable since you have more control over what it is you are looking at. I am not sure i would play a game end to end for hours and hours in 3d. i think that would likely make my head explode but we'll see about that too and if not my be running into walls when i am done since you tend to loose perseption. not to mention 3d glassses make it so you see each picture at 60 hz in one eye 60 hz in the other putting you back to a 60 hz refresh and migrains.
    anyway way off subject, but to sum it up.
    Some good things can come from flavor of the day fads. Grant it some bad some times does too.. i mean look at bell bottoms....

  • Why doesn't Photoshop CS5 automatically scale strokes and effects?

    I am looking everywhere for why Photoshop CS5 doesn't automatically scale strokes and effects. I could've sworn there was a preference in CS4 but there's nothing resembling this in CS5. Driving me crazy!
    Whenever I do a Free Transform, the effects are completely out of whack and force me to waste time resetting them individually, layer by layer. I used to be able to grab any object or group of objects, do a transformation and Photoshop automatically recalculated. If anyone has a tip on how to avoid the annoyance of having to go layer by layer and forcibly adjusting that would be great.

    Layer style effect setting are in absolute pixel size values so if you change the scale of a layer the style size remains the same. You can edit the layers style effects after tou do a transform on the layer and change the absolute setting. If the layer has been rastersized or flattened you can not. I have request that Adobe add support for relative settings like inches, cm, mm etc which is relative to the documents dpi resolution. This would be very helpful for recording actions. 
    However photoshop can scale existing layer style for you when you use Image Size there is a check box.  If you need to scale a single layer and have its style scaled you need to do it in a round about way. Convert the layer to a smart object. Then instead of using transform double click on the layser smart object icon in the layers palette.  Photoshop will open that layer embedded smart object in Photoshop for you to work on it.. Use Image Size to resize the layer up or down in size and check resample constrain and the scale style check box.  Then use menu File>Save.  Photoshop will then update the embedded smart object in the smart object layer and you can close the document Photoshop opened for you to work on the smart object.

  • Why Doesn't Adobe Have a Cool Logo to Use?

    I was looking for the "official" Adobe logo to place on my Photoshop portfolio with tagline "Built with Adobe" and can't seem to figure out what is their logo and where to download it.
    The image searches all look like knockoffs.
    Apple on the other hand, has the Iconic Finder face and Apple logos everywhere...does Adobe frown on people using their logo — why isn't it easily available (or am I somehow missing it)?
    Where is it?

    I agree about the Apple sticker. I have two in the side windows of my Bug. Actually they're more of an "ice breaker" than they are a way of saying Made on a Mac. My VW was made on an assembly line in Wolfsburg, Germany, but people see the stickers and they say, "Hey, I just switched to Mac!" And even if they don't know about forty-year-old air cooled german cars, they have something to talk about with me. Come to think of it, I can't recall ever seeing a "Windows XP" or "Vista" sticker anywhere but on the tower of a PC loaded with it. I've seen a few HP stickers, but they were on company cars, so I doubt it was solely product pride.
    Here's a good example of why I don't stick logos on stuff anymore. The last four sites I built for people, I told them how I was going to be using CSS for layout design, PHP for their contact forms, Javascripts, and whatever else I was building. All fourof them said, "I don't know anything about any of that stuff. That's why you're building it and I'm not. They didn't really care if I built it on my MacBook or my Toshiba laptop, they didn't really care if I hand wrote the code, or if I  let Dreamweaver do most of the back end work. As long as it looked right when I was done and they got a good place in a Google search, none of it mattered to any of them. As long as the header logo matched the company logo, they didn't care if I used Fireworks, Photoshop, or Corel Draw to put it together.
    99% of the people you meet won't give a crap one way or another what you use to make what they want. As long as you make it the way they want, that's all that matters. My mother is a painter. She doesn't affix little stickers to her artwork with the labels from the paint and brushes she used. The people she paints for don't want or need to know what she used. They want their paintings. Can you imagine if McDonald's put little lettuce, tomato and beef stickers on your burger telling you what brand they used to make your lunch?
    Steve Jobs has always had a different apporach to things than Bill Gates. That's why you pay less for OS X, (and there's only ONE version of it) than you do for Windows (which has anywhere from five to seven different builds). OS X doesn't require a product key and have a strictly enforced limit of five installs per disc, including reinstalls on the same system. And you can loan your OS X disc to a friend without having to call Apple for permission to install it first. I prefer OS X to Windows. I prefer iWork to Office. I prefer Photoshop to Paint or Corel Draw. But I'm not going to proclaim it to people who don't care. Here is about the only place I'll even mention it, unless someone brings it up in conversation.

  • Why doesn't Photoshop CS6 boot into Extended Mode? My GPU is Supported!

    Ok got a new laptop, quad core and went to install the trial of Photoshop CS6 Extended and it will not boot into extended mode but rather the original Photoshop mode, and I know this by the splash screen with the circles and the fact there is no 3D menu. A friend did the same on his laptop (different hardware) and his booted into Photoshop CS6 Extended. We used the same Adobe Download Assistant to do our installs. My GPU is the ATI Radeon 6520G and it has support for both Open GL & Open CL. It appears in the Performance preferences with GPU checked and Open CL is selectable in advanced. Now my question is why can't I get into Extended Mode? Why can't we just force it to do so? I have seen this issue all over the place and it seems to be related mostly to ATI/AMD chipsets. Any help is appreciated, I would like to try out the 3D options.
    I even tried installing the latest ATI Radeon drivers which are beta 2.7, same issue.
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Did you download the trial version of the software directly from Adobe.com?
    What Chris is trying to say is that there's no known reason why the legitimate trial version from Adobe shouldn't enable the 3D features on a system that supports GPU operations, as you've said yours does:
