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,.

C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2015\Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 settings CC

    Your problem seems to be a matter of not understanding what version of the code that you use compared to what your file is configured to use.  Your other display uses AS2, so if you want this to work you must set the parameters of publication for AS2.

    If your file settings are for AS3 code that show you in this announcement will be suitable for this because it is the AS3 code.  The function would change to what is shown below.  Mgiht want to use a listener KEY_UP instead of a listener KEY_DOWN.

  • Downloading photos in a series of tabs, the download on my computer site changes randomly.

    I go to a website and click on the photos to open each in a new tab. When I go to upload each picture independently, several times the downloaded file changes randomly and spontaneously. Sometimes, it is just my folder "my download. I usually download the photos to my drive F:, a 2 TB disk attached. I create a folder and upload the photo in this file, but sometimes it just goes to another folder on my F: drive and sometimes in my folder "my download. I just want to remain at the level of the last created folder and do not try to figure out where I want to save the photos.

    The last used directory for access to the site (host) the download file will be pre-selected in the file picker.
    If no directory of download of the current website (host) has been preserved, browser.download.lastDir will be used.
    You can disable this feature to remember a download based on the host directory by creating a new Boolean pref on the topic: config page with the browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite pref name and set the value to false.

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

    You can remove the content file - prefs.sqlite in the profile folder only delete the settings stored in this file.
    In this way, you keep exceptions stored in permissions.sqlite who might get lost if you turn off the "Site preferences" via clear recent history.

  • Wallpaper & theme changes randomly - how to stop this?

    How to stop windows change randomly my paper painted & theme.

    I will customize it via Control Panel, be careful not to check several wallpapers. But he keeps between 2 wallpaper / themes & one of them autohides my taskbar.

    Don't want to have to continue to go to the control panel to update the settings!

    Hi Amerrrs,
     
    (a) don't you make changes to your computer before the onset of the problem?
    (b) when the wallpaper and theme changes it? During hibernation?
    (c) was your computer pre-installed with Windows 7?
    (d) does when working on an application? A third-party application could be causing the problem.
    (e) using a laptop? There are times that your laptop battery is low and the screen goes to the basic theme.

    If you do not want to change the wallpaper or themes, make sure that you have not set the time to change the wallpaper and theme or never put if you can.  It could be the screensaver that rises, which mask the taskbar

    You can place your computer in a clean boot State and check
     
    There could be a possibility that a third-party application conflicts and the problem occurs.
     
    You can start Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a 'clean boot'. A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • Windows 7 change randomly font size of my office between Small (100%), medium (125%) and Large (150%).

    I tried to create a customized (like 130%) font size to see if it would stick.  Every time I have restart or shut down my computer, desktop change font size again.  Recently, my computer completely freezes (frozen, all frozen pointer) and the activity led to the CPU on my laptop would show no activity whatsoever.  Then the fan would be instantly and not turn off.  This could be related to a problem with Firefox, which I am trying to determine in a separate proceeding.  But this ice could be related to my font size change randomly, since I have to cold - restart my computer after each freeze-up.

    Hey Bartman,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    The change if the font size could occur if the user account you are using is corrupt. You can try to create a new user account and check if that helps.

    To create a user account

    1. To open user accounts, click the Start button, select Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety, and then click user accounts.
    2. Click Manage another account.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    1. Click create a new account.
    2. Type the name that you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click create an account.

    For more details follow the link.

  • change a global sample using a spell #.

    How can I change a global sample using a hexadecimal number? The only option I see is to individually enter the RGB numbers in. And a question side, when creating a new shade, how can I automatically make a spot color? Who doesn't want their color chart to be global?

    Screen Shot 2015-12-15 at 2.32.20 PM.png

    First part of your question: dialogue in the shade Options you can change the color Mode 'Web save RGB' (somehow outdated) and using hexadecimal values.

    Second part: command-click on the new button nuance in the Swatches palette to create a spot color (in previous versions of Illustrator, it can be Alt-click).

  • How to create a procedure to change random passwords

    Hello


    I am trying to create a procedure to change randomly the passwords for all users in a database. I need this after the cloning of the database. I have too many users to change manually...

    Y at - it option to create a procedure that will extract all users in a database and edit a random password?


    I wasn't able to find any clue.

    Could you help me?

    Thank you

    Welcome to the forum.

    change randomly the passwords for all users in a database.

    All users? Including SYS/SYSTEM? I hope not...

    But you can use DBMS_RANDOM. STRING and ALL_USERS and dynamic SQL.

    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/AppDev.102/b14261/dynamic.htm#LNPLS01101

    (easy to find when you do a quick search for http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/homepage or http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/homepage)

    DBMS_RANDOM. CHAIN can give you a random password easily:

    select dbms_random.string('x', 10)
    from   dual
    connect by level <= 10;
    

    Zo, you could do something like:

    begin
      for rec in ( select t.username
                   ,      dbms_random.string('x', 10) new_pass
                   from   all_users t
                  -- where  t.username not in (...)
                  -- or
                  -- where  t.username in (...)
                 )
      loop
        --execute immediate ' alter user '||rec.username||' identified by '||rec.new_pass;
        dbms_output.put_line ('New password for user '||rec.username||' = '||rec.new_pass);
      end loop;
    end;
    /
    

    You will have to fill in the where clause.
    I also commented on the dynamic modify the statement of the user, since I don't know if you really want to reset the DDT for all users.
    Also, rather than use dbms_output.put_line to verify the new password, you can insert them into a table or spool the output to a file.

  • The stylus pressure Photoshop CS5 change randomly

    Hi people,

    I have recently started to paint again in Photoshop CS5 (is not done since CS3). What I find is that when using normal brushes or the new mixer brush, the pressure changes randomly. By example, if I write a "S" ten times horizontally with the same lightness and natural speed, 1-5 are very good, 6 and 7 are really heavy and a bit fragile looking, then 8-10 are looking normal again. It is very random and happens quite often. Very annoying and distracting for any work of art.

    I also use ZBrush, Mudbox & BodyPaint for my work and the pen rennet in the use of these programs is quite normal with no random changes.

    My specs:

    Windows 7 x 64, Photoshop, x 64, 8 GB RAM, Geforce 8800 gts 512 MB graphics card.

    This was reported here several times.  If you can get the seach forum work, searching for threads that contain "Wacom" and "pressure".

    According to me, the workaround solution that proved useful in these discussions was to return to a slightly older drivers Wacom.  People from Wacom are very useful and will probably run you just if you contact them directly.

  • MacBook beeps randomly while I use it.

    Hello. Can someone help me to fix my macbook pro?

    The annoying problem is, it beeps at random while I use it and I don't know why. He just happened to this "beep" after a few days that I connect it to an external monitor (Mac). It is the only action I did before the beep that's happened.

    Hi there iamAloTheGreat,

    Please visit Apple support communities.

    I understand that you hear one its "beep" after having plugged an external display to your MacBook Pro. We'll look into this a little more closely.

    You hear the beeps at start up your Mac? If so, see computer on Mac startup tones.

    If you hear beeps intermittently when you use your Mac, it can take a little more time to find the cause. You can use the steps in this article to help isolate the cause: help with graphics issues on external displays connected to your Mac.

    Best regards.
