using free transform

use cs3... trying to free transform, but for some reason any menu, I can not use the didstort or from the point of view work... What do I do to make it active?

Thank you!!

Are you trying to transform a smart object layer? In CS3, you cannot use the Perspective transformations or deformation on Smart Objects. You must rasterize the smart object first. Let me know if this isn't what is causing your problem.

  • Problem with free transform [was: resize tool help!]

    To resize a layer using free transform, it's only allowing me to use the rotation tool.  How can I change that so I can resize vs turn?

    Float your cursor over the corner and then it will change to the one shown above. When you resize, hold down the SHIFT key to keep the proportion.

    Or, choose the command Edition > transform > scale

  • Free transformation problem

    Hello.

    I use free transform a little and I think I accidentally hit a session which causes an error when I try to resize with free transform. I do an animated storyboard (animatic) and creates a lot of material in the PScs6.

    Here's an example of my problem:

    When I put a layer or an image in photoshop the reselution seems well. I have cut it down using free transform to a Board and then I want to free the same transform layer and make the largest object in the next Board of Directors. The problem is when I do this the remains of the reselution "shrunk" version It does not become, and I find myself with a version low resolution of the layer that I want to use over and over again. I used the free transform a bit in the past with none of the drama so I guess I have enabled or disabled a setting somewhere.

    Can someone help me to rectify this situation.

    Thank you!

    Scott, when you reduce the image with transformation, PS throw pixels to enlarge the image to its smaller size. more reduce you it, the pixels further, he throws. Then when you use transform again to expand it to the next Board of Directors, he must try to reinvent the pixels lost, with the result an image low resolution polyhedral. The solution is to convert the image to a smart object before reduce you. To do this, go to the layers panel, right-click on the image layer and select Convert to smart object. Who saves a copy of the full resolution that can be used when you shrink and then enlarge the image. Of course, if you make the image larger than its original size, PS will have to invent pixels, reducing the quality once more.

  • Problems with Free Transform tool in CS4

    I use free transform tool on PC before, first time on Mac. I noticed something different on Mac. Whenever I select free transform and manipulate the image I want, the rest of the original image, not processed on the same layer, if I get an overlap of the transformed image I want with the original image below. It was not that big of a problem before, but the more I use it, more annoying this problem appears. Is it possible to fix this?

    Are you hit control-alt-T instead of command-T maybe?

    Then, drag Option and only use Cmd + shift.

  • Cannot deform stuck HAVE dynamic object using the free transform vector in PS CS6

    Hello

    I stuck a vector object in PS CS6 (13.0.1 x 32) today directly from Illustrator CS6 (16.0.1 x 32) and select 'Paste as smart object' (Windows XP Pro SP3).

    I then tried to distort the object glued using the free transform tool by dragging one of the handles to angle with hold CTRL (Windows).

    General warps\distorts the object, but instead, it launched an operation to bias .

    If I paste as Pixels or shape layer and then apply free Transform, < Ctrl + corner handle slide > performs a warp\distort operation.

    Also, if I have rasterized glued it opposed and then convert them to a smart object, I can warp\distort.

    Is it not possible to paste a vector Illustrator in as a smart object, then warp\distort directly using this technique?

    Thanks for your help.

    Richard

    Your right because on a stuck vehicle a smart cannot deform, false or perform perspective transformations.

    One solution would be to right click on the vector smart object layer in the layers panel and

    Choose Convert to smart object.

    It depends on what is your object, you would probably better quality of a pasted shape or path, but then you will not be able to open the object

    back in illustrator from photoshop.

  • Citing the free transform on the smart object place encompassing top left

    I've got something weird going on in PS CC 2015. It runs on a computer Windows 10. I placed a psd file of a company in the active document logo. I shot it, scaled and added some layer styles. Then at some point I had to resize it again, so I called the free transform command, but now the framework encompassing loads in the upper left corner of the document. Any changes to one of the settings in the Panel Options F. T. causes the logo to disappear completely, even if I can go back to the default values. This occurs only after I added a mask to the layer. Without the mask, everything works fine - add the mask, and I get this oddity.

    No idea why?

    something more I would say... Double-click on the smart object and use the crop inside tool

  • Free transform a placed Image

    I use InDesign for Windows 7 CC.

    After this last update, I can no longer turn freely no matter what.  When I place an object, only the bounding box is transformed and not the image that it contains.  Before this update I could press CTL T to free transform them both at the same time, but that no longer works.  I tried to look in the menus and shortcuts on my keyboard, but I can't find the option more.  Change something?  Object > transform > scale brings up a popup that I am certainly not.

    Thanks for the help!

    E is the default value for the free transform tool. You can replace through keyboard shortcuts > tools

  • Why does the warp tool work in free transformation more

    I used to use the warp function all the time with free transform, but now it seems not to do anything. I can select, format choices, but the grid is not displayed on this subject so I can transform into another form.

    Have not set something up with the latest version? I don't understand what happened.

    What type of layer that you use it on? String won't work with text layers, for example.  Try on a raster layer and come back if it still does not.

  • Unwanted free transform bounding box.

    Working in a multi layers document as I click on an object (to get to correct the layer to allow me to change it).  and use the move tool to move the object. It is a fairly basic operation, I get a free transform bounding around the object requires me to do a transformation. He ceases to me cold. If I click outside of the box of boundng get a dialogue-Do you want to apply the nymph? move the object - I click on say the probe tool to get "not trapped" and I get (want to appy transformation.) I have no idea how to solve this BTW is in Photoshop >

    Hi joancqx,

    You must uncheck the "Show transform controls" checkbox in the options bar.

    Kind regards

  • I cannot using the transform tool.

    I watch a tutorial on how to make a target in photoshop. I use windows while the guy in the tutorial uses a mac so some shortcuts are the same under windows. Anyway, here's where I'm stuck. First of all, I made a circle with the selection and then inverted and filled Rectangle tool then the layer of white. I then reversed back again. I use the free transform tool and I scale down to make a circle and then fill it with white. I try to repeat the process rather than leave the image as it already is, he is constantly changing the circle that I've already been working, but I want to reduce a new circle, so I can fill that one. I hope thsis is sensible. I was able to do it correctly the first time, but for some reason, I can't produce the same result.

    Hello

    Make sure that the second circle you make should be on another layer, if the two circles will be on a single layer the reduction will affect the other.

    Thank you

  • Free transform tool does not.

    I use 13 elements on an iMac OSX 10.10.3.The free transform tool does not work properly when I try to put a picture. for example, if I type in 140% ' and tick 'constrain proportions', I think a single Watch '140' box and the other box shows 14% ", or sometimes, '120'." It's very frustrating. anyone has any ideas about this problem?

    Thanks for any help.

    Try to reset the tool.

    I use Illustrator CC 2014

    Thanks for any input.

    Marcia,

    What happens in CC2014 if you

    (A) use the group selection tool (selection direct tool with the sign + (see the dialog box),)

    or

    (B) first Alt/Option click the object with the direct Selection and ClickDrag tool with her?
