  My 'quick selection' tool works like the tool "polygonal Selection. What Miss me? It worked fine until this morning. I inadvertently change something?

  Hi Phelpsy,

  Check the size of the brush for quick selection.

  

  If this does not help, reset the quick selection tool.

  To reset the tool:

  1. Select Selection fast Tool.tool

  2. right click / Control click on the drop-down list at the top and choose Reset tool

  3. Restart Photoshop

• The HELP-time acting crazy all of a sudden selection tool

  Hi all, audition CS6 is suddenly strange on me! I'm editing a digital audio book and have to shoot the dialogue of a male character from another file open to insert into my larger narrative... raw file so I come and go between these two files a little, but must remain in the place I left on each one... normally, it works beautifully. When I go to show a different file and return to the previous file 'always open', the average selection time remains the same place I left... but all of a sudden, he started the remaining at the time I left it on the PREVIOUS FILE... when I go back to the other file. Wow, let me rephrase that pack that was too complicated. If I'm in, let's say, position 02:14:12 file and then open the file B and copy a piece of audio, leaving the cursor in THIS file at position 00:00:45, when I switch back to file, the time selection tool is now at position 00:00:45, at the place where I left it.  Yet once, it is not used to do this (as in na not to last night even!) I tried to restart the computer, and that it was not fixed. I'm not aware of the evolution of all the settings, but I guess I must have accidentally hit the perfect storm of strikes to indulge in this 'option '.

  BTW, I thought it would be the preference-> reading-> return playhead to the start position to the stop (not that I had changed it) but that does not solve it either.

  Thanks in advance for any help!

  Hi Melissa,

  Souinds as the preference "Synchronize between files" got turned on.  Open Preferences > General and uncheck "sync selection, zoom level and head of reading in all files in the Waveform Editor"

  

• First Pro 2015 - selection tool has changed

  I just upgraded to first Pro version of 2014 2015 and it seems that the selection tool behaves differently than before when you drag the end of the clip in the timeline panel.  In the previous, when I click on the end of a clip and make the left or right, I see the current image of the video I've been hanging out in the program monitor.  After the upgrade, I can see that the selection tool is acting very differently.  He will show me a split screen in the program monitor where one side will be the current image and one side will be a still image.  However, sometimes it will show the current image of the track I am expanding, but other times, it seems that it is showing me the current frame from another track.

  It looks like to the deployment tool behaves differently, it sometimes shows the current on two separate tracks, but when I'm doing drag a clip that is not the top then follow I will see only the top rail.  I'm unable to find ways to predict what the new rules are, can someone help me understand these changes?  Also, is it possible to go back to the way that it used to work because I saw no problem with it.

  
  Thank you

  2015 has added Composite overview over Trim, which is enabled by default. To return to the previous method of edit/trim, go tot the timeline panel, click on settings (wrench) timeline view and deselect Composite overview over the filling.

• Selection tool became Rolling edit

  I am very confused and must have messed up something in the settings somewhere.

  I use Adobe first CC

  When I selected in the timeline panel (something of pointer) selection tool, it doesn't seem to work.  If I fly over the elements of editing the symbol that indicates is to change it to roll. Move a single item or clips stacked acts just like rolling Edit, and I can't figure how to get back to the basic selection tool.

  I see the same behavior in all sequences of the project I'm working on as well as sequences in other older projects. Then I suppose I must have messed up something in the Basic program, but I have no idea how to do to reset anything I did.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Can check the preferences of the deployment/rippel under trim tool.

• Selection tool it's the direct Selection tool...

  OK, I've been through all the preferences and have no idea of what I changed. My selection tool is no longer shows bounding boxes and acts as the direct Selection tool by only "emphasizing" the realization of selection almost impossible resizing. I need to restore it. Please HELP thanks.

  You have turned off inadvertenty bounding boxes. Reactivate them.

• Selection tool is not the tail with images when you drag

  So I had this frustrating thing for a while. When I put my selection tool a video file at first to move to the side or another layer and as soon as, like moving the selection tool a bit, he places automatically the video one layer under my selection tool... So I have to move the selection up to a length of layers tool to adjust it to the left and right on the timeline... Just a fight. I wish that the selection tool has not changed the layer of videos when I moved it left and right... Just stick with the images that I am setting on the im adjustment layer. Check out the video and you will understand what im getting. The selection tool shows a strange looking symbol with an arrow pointing down so I guess it's just a special feature that was accidentally checked the. You just don't know where I can go back to normal. Thank you

  Went on the Chat with Adobe and they solved the problem via remote access.

  First on erase my personalized workspaces closed first pro. Then went to my "documents" (I have a mac) 'Adobe' and then click 'Premiere Pro' and moved three files named "6.0" "9.0" and "10.0" in a new folder, that they named "Od." Finally they opened back first. When the box came to put everything in place, they went up to the top of the window and deselected "import the project workspace" under "workspaces". I have opened a project and it fixed the problem. I had to make a new workspace and change some shortcuts custom back, but other that that, it was back to normal.

• the fitting of the image in the field including AutoFit options are not displayed on my options panel of the selections Tools toolbar

  The fitting of the image in the field including AutoFit options are not displayed on my options panel to toolbar for the selection tools. How can I view?

  You're out of space. Some toolbar has been resized/re-spaced in the last update. Click on the menu button (on the far-right in your screenshot) and select Customize... Make sure that the mounting frame (object) is selected. If this is the case, you should disable something else to make room for this group of button.

  Furthermore, I see that your application window is not maximized. What happens if you expand to the maximum it?

  Stupid question CS6. How can I get rid of my experience after using the quick selection tool?

  The best way would be to make sure that your layer is not a background layer: click the lock icon in this case. Then click the icon at the bottom of the layer panel layer mask. This will create a mask that you can refine and not be destructive.

  

• Photoshop Elements 14 Quick Selection tool breaks

  I often use the quick selection tool to clone or highlight areas of the image for the special edition. Invariably, after several weeks of use, it stops working. It does not have the AutoFill feature nor can I enclose an area for further editing. In the past, I just uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop Elements. Last week, not even this method worked. This was also a problem in Photoshop elements 11, in my experience. What is the cause of the problem and what is the solution?

  A simple reset will often do the trick. Go to this link and select the Quick Selection tool:

  I don't know what is happening here, but your steps really do that properly in all cases. Try this.

  (1) make your selection, you see the moving dotted line

  

  2) click on the layer mask icon in the indicated measure. Note the mask is shown on layer 0

  

  (3) on the screen, it will look like this with a transparent background, but nothing has been deleted

  

  (4) If you are not comfortable with being there layer mask, select the mask and right click then choose apply layer mask. I would say it's totally useless, but some people find it easier to understand.

  

  (5) the layer will look like below. I know its tempting to cut and paste, but ultimately you lose things, but to do this way, you are in complete control and can go back if you make a mistake.
