circle guide on several tools disappear at random

The world is - that sound familiar at all? -

I use photoshop CC, Assembly of the JPG. I use the quick selection tool to select and deselect various areas of the photo.  Suddenly and apparently for no reason whatsoever, the circle guide around the Quick Selection tool doesn't disappear, leaving just a center of the cross - the real selection does not change.  The circle of guide does not disappear because of its size, or the amount that I got the picture zoomed in or out, because when I click somewhere on the picture, a selection circle around the cross quite visibly.

It will sometimes seem to appear again as randomly as he disappeared, but sometimes I have to reboot to get it back.  It affects other tools with a circle guide similar around them like brush etc.

I don't know if it is a bug or if I am accidentally clicking on a shortcut that changes the appearance, but it has happened several times and I just can't get my head round-if someone can help me then please do!

Thank you

Tom

If I accidentally clicking on a shortcut that changes the appearance

The Caps Lock key will make the change to the circle through.

  • Message error Photomerge & several tools (i.e. the count tool) shaded out in CS6

    Hello

    When I try to use the photomerge tool in Photoshop CS6, an incredibly long error message that I have to force quit photoshop to get rid of. The only help that I could find online suggests that I have uninstall and reinstall photoshop, but I don't have serial number or proof of purchase for the soft, so I don't want to / can not do this. Can someone help me solve this problem?

    In addition, there are several tools, including the count tool, for example, that are dimmed in the menus (I can't click it). Any suggestions would be welcome.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    You can insert the installation disk, run the installer and see if there is a repair option once the original installation is detected.

    When I'm accommodating the toolbar of the new option to arrange the icons on the toolbar toolbar change several tools come with the words "wrong tool" and have no icon associated with them. What are these missing tools 'bad '?

    I see you have fixed this now, but I was about to tell you that you could have accommodated in the 'Bad' by its shortcut "I" tool.

    To save a custom toolbar, get everything the way you want and click on the button space work, click new workspace

    Type a name for the workspace, and check all three options.

    If I have to use a single screen, I use a variant of the Essentials workspace with minor panels collapsed and dock for main panels.  I call this Essentials 2

    It also seems to me that with all these options, it's stupid not to take full advantage of them, so I separate my most used instruments for their own group and double column toolbar to adjust the screen.  I tried to drop in the groups for the most used tool near the document image (right). I love it, but it take some time remembering the new positions.

  • Anyway to temporarily ignore the smart guides using the tool pen?

    I have a love relationship with the guides and hatred. When I want to that they're bad; When I'm not good they are.

    While trying to do things with the pen tool, I am often confronted with smart guides snapping my tool around without the broken my volition. I'm not really good with the pen tool yet, so it is making a more difficult climb when they interfere.

    Now, I know I can disable smart guides by doing Ctrl-U, but it has side effect of my pen from the current curve I'm free. When I click on the end of this curve to start where I left off, it changes the anchor in a corner instead of curve and mess up what I was going to. Would not a problem except that I sometimes envy the guides while I'm still on the same curve so I don't want to not completely turn them off as I work and I have to then reactivate to correct a task, know what I mean?

    Yes, is there a key that I can hold to temporarily turn turn off smart guides or ignore them somehow? I met quite a few keys that try so I think not. This probably indicates that I just need to improve my skills to learn to work with it better.

    At least until 13 Illustrator, it's a trick or rather an ugly hack that is to align it on the gate drive and talent to temporarily disable all the features of smart guides. The following must be prepared in case you run the hack as an action:

    1. in the actions Palette, create a new action game. Call it "turn off Smart Guides.

    2 in all scripts, create a new action. Call the 'Disable Smart Guides', assign an F key to action, say F3 and press ENTER.

    3. in the actions Palette menu, and then select the command insert a Menu item and go to view > snap to grid

    4 stop action recording

    5. go in Edition > Preferences > Guides & grid

    6. in the grid of each text box, enter 0.01 mm. This is the minimum value that you can set here.

    7. in the text box of Subdivisions, enter 1000, maximum value accepted here.

    Now, take any document, turn on smart guides, make sure that snap to grid is turned off, and start drawing a path. Press F3 and continue the way of drawing. Press F3 again as soon as you still need your guides.

    As you can see, after hit F3 to snap to grid, the path will not be interrupted when you place the next point. And you have a sort of microscopic parameters of the grid, snap to grid has almost no influence on which points are placed. Actually, he clings still, but because of absurd grid settings, it is rather negligible.

    Of obvious workaround was originally invented by a young lady, located near Edmonton in the Canada.

  • Illustrator crystallize tool does not randomly!

    I checked the youtube and continue to work on the eye of tracing.

    I discovered candied tool has the regular shape, not randomly like youtube.

    Is there anyone who can help me?

    The presenter in the video does not go on the tool. It does nothing to random. What makes random can be irregularities when you click exactly the same point by clicking several times. And you can introduce irregularities when use you it with a Wacom and select the option "use pressure pen.

    Most likely, she did both:

    1 use the pressure with a Wacom pen

    2. click on several times.

  • Line tool disappears to halfway through the pencil drawing

    Hey all,.

    I meet a weird problem at the moment with the pencil (N) in artificial intelligence tool. Using my wacom, when I'm going to draw a line, it shows me the blue line at the beginning but at half way through a line of drawing the blue line, which is essentially the guide showing me what I drew just disappears, but if I continue and let go it still creates the complete line. If it's really frustrating because I want to see what I actually paint.

    Experience would have me think it's a kind of graphics/ram problem, but do not - I'm really confused!

    Can anyone help?

  • Remove CRA tool of circles on my form-tools - how?

    I've recently updated as a result of CC, and I could changed some settings in an unfortunate way.

    The 'problem' is that I get those circle-arch-tool-things on my rectangular forms, which makes it harder to work with shape - especially when I'm zoomed. See the attached picture. I don't know of four roundabouts to anchor, when you press on allows me to round up the corresponding angle of the square.

  • Tools of change randomly to previously used tools

    Hi all

    I'm running into a very strange and frustrating problem in Photoshop CS6 (running on a Macbook Air with OS X version 10.8.5).

    When you use keyboard shortcuts to switch backwards between tools, Photoshop will be randomly my tool used previously. For example, I have the active move tool and use it to move items in my PSD. Then, I turn to the text tool by using the 't' shortcut on my keyboard. I go to click on the type I want to change, and Photoshop, has been my active tool to the move tool. I type 't' again to pull the top of the text, in 1 or 2 seconds tool, Photoshop jumps me to the move tool. It's as if I pressed the 'V' shortcut that is immediately after the pressing, the shortened 't'! Sometimes I have to type 't' to shoot to the top of the type tool 8 or 10 times before the tool of type "sticks".

    This is the case with other tools, too (switch between Move tent, tent & direct selection, Zoom & Move, etc.) is not only limited to switch between Move & Type.

    I do not see the same question when you click on the toolbar to select a new tool (instead of going via the keyboard shortcut).

    Anyone else see this issue? Does anyone know a fix?

    I had a lot of problem with that. Russell Williams from Adobe gave me this fix a few days ago:

    He said to edit a file called PSUserConfig.txt in the PS settings folder. If one does not exist, create a text file with this in it:

    SpringLoadedKeyTime 2000

    I change the time from 2000 to 8000.

    You can find the file here:

    If, on Mac, in Photoshop ~/Library/Preferences/Adobe CC settings 2015

    Since the library folder is hidden by default, type Cmd + G in the finder and paste

    ~/Library/preferences/Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 parameters

    in the box.

    Under Windows,.
