The cutting tool does not scroll

The cutting tool is a very nice feature, but only as long as you can get the entire area you want to cut at the same time on the screen.  I'm not aware of any way to scroll a page of text that is longer than the screen.  Are there tricks to do this?

Hi Jaander,

Snipping Tool can only be used as a capture of screen, or snip, of any object you see on your screen.  Thus, the cutting tool cannot scroll. You may need to scroll down the screen and then use the tool.

  • The cutting tool does not work after windows updates.

    I read answers to similar questions about the failure of the cutting tool.  I use the tool cutting regularly and I think it's a fantastic tool in Windows. I have Vista Ultimate and all my windows updates have managed: none were not installed correctly, and I did not install new programs or hardware.  It seems that Microsoft knows the snipping tool does not - why can't they simply provide an update patch to correct the problem, rather than make us do all the work.  I don't have to go through hoops of restorations etc to get something it seems work was broken by updates.  I'm about to go to a Mac.

    It worked for me! Thank you!

  • "The cutting tool does not work on your computer right now. Restart etc. "comes when I select the Snipping Tool icon.

    The error message "the snipping tool does not work on your computer right now. Restart etc. "comes when I select the Snipping Tool icon.  However if I select snipping tool in the menu start nothing happens at all.

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    -

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    -

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

    I hope this helps. Good luck.

    Open Control Panel, click Classic view in the task pane.

  • The text tool does not work in Photoshop CC

    When I try to use the text tool, that it does nothing when I type even if the font size is 12, and the color is black on a white background, and then when I try to get out of the text tool a progress bar will appear that says "Record type" and the progress bar does not until 15 minutes later. After that, no text shows. I tried to move the text tool above where I have used it previously, and the cursor doesn't detect any text in the box.

    This is a brand new installation of photoshop, I did not any customizations to it.

    My operating system is a Mac with OS X 10.7.5.

    I already tried things:

    …………………………………………….

    -J' tried to uninstall and reinstall Photoshop CC and creative cloud.

    -J' tried to change the font size, color. Each took 15 minutes due to the type of rendering progress bar.

    -J' tried to change major fonts such as Verdana, Arial, etc..

    -J' did the steps on this page to troubleshoot fonts:

    http://helpx.Adobe.com/Photoshop/KB/troubleshoot-fonts-Photoshop-CS5.html

    It was the procedure on this page:

    S ' ensure that Photoshop is the most recent version.

    -Clear overview of the policies.

    -Delete the specified fonts known to cause trouble.

    -Clear cache fonts photoshop

    -Clear cache OS police

    -Try to remove everything except a font on the Mac and keep the rest in another folder.

    -Use their fonts test script.

    Now the police only that I have in my folder of Mac fonts is Arial.ttf

    I did all these things, and the problem still occurs. All other tools works fine for me! I need to use photoshop for graphics work, I need to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I found the problem! When I pressed 'File' > 'New' to make a new document, I typed in the 1000, but I'm used to the measures in pixels, not inches. The new facility was in inches lol. The Web was gigantic! Once I put it to a smaller size that the text tool worked great! I feel stupid, I over looked that.

  • "pointing to the file" tool does not work

    I use Dreamweaver CS4 on a Mac under OS X 10.5.6. The tool 'to the file' (the icon that looks like a target in the properties panel) does not work. When I click on & made slide on it nothing happens. Any ideas on how I can get it to work?

    There is a known issue point to the file on Mac if you use a big screen (I think only 20 ' or more) or on a Setup dual monitor. It works very well on smaller screens.

    Hi anshulag62,

    1. what exactly happens when you click Save to store the key?
    2 - is save it as dialogue remain open or close?

    If save as dialog box closes after clicking on save button, check the target location to see if there is a new file.

    Try the sfc (System File Checker) scan to see if any system file is missing or damaged. To do this, try the following steps:
    a. visit http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
    b. run the scan successfully.
    c. restart the computer so that the changes take effect and check the result.
