What happened to my tool Eraser? PS CS4

Suddenly the Eraser tool no longer works on layers of settings. If I want to partially erase a curves layer, nothing happens. If I want to erase a game selection adjustment layer, gum adds instead of delete it. Otherwise, it works normally on layers of pixels. I restarted the computer, but nothing has changed. The box to clear the history is not checked.


Did activate some features that I don't know? Or is this a bug and I have to reinstall?

You are fading to black, white, transparent?  Depending on what you are erasing, it is easy to invert the colors accidentally and it will look like gum does not work...

  • What happened to Snipping Tool?

    HP Pavilion Slimline s5213w running under Windows 7 64-bit

    1. earlier today, I ran Snipping Tool for the first time: START-online snip => enter; Select the tool-online entry. It worked fine and I did a snip and saved. A few minutes later I tried again and this time instead of "Tool captures" all I could get was "saving steps to reproduce a problem. How can I get that back?

    2. According to the AskLeo cutting tool should be available under the menu START-accessories online, but he's not here.

    I can still get to the tool, but not in the menu START. In addition, support allows access to the Snipping Tool and it explains how to use but it says Nothing about how to access outside assistance.

    Hello

    Step 1: Make sure the executable Snipping Tool is always present on your system (and has not been removed by a virus)

    The executable file must be located in C:\Windows\System32\SnippingTool.exe

    Step 2: To start, you have different options:

    -Double-click on the executable file located in "C:\Windows\System32\.

    OR - Press Win + R, then type "snippingtool" (without the quotes) and validate

    OR - right-click on the executable and select "pin to taskbar" or "pin to start menu", to create shortcuts to these places

    OR - right-click on the executable and select "create shortcut" and then move the shortcut to the place you want.

    At the top of the screen there used to be a menu displaying items such as history, tools, help, etc. He disappeared. I tried to click on "open menu" - Customize-show/hide toolbars, but it did not work. I find these features useful. How can I get these items menu back?

    It has been deprecated by Adobe, but by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) - almost a decade ago. Deprecated in HTML 4.0 and HTML Transitional 4.01 in 1999, but already obsolete in HTML 4.01 Strict in 1999 and XHTML 1.01 in 2000.

    Why bgcolor specifically?

    This attribute has been deprecated in favor of style sheets to specify background color information.

    Why deprecated elements and attributes - generally?

    Turns out that which separates it from the structure of a document from its presentation aspects reduces the cost of an extensive network of media platforms, etc. and facilitates document revisions.

  • What happens in terms of performance, if I didn't install VMware tools on linux with NIC defined as VXNET3

    Hi Experts,

    I would like to understand the following:

    Currently, I have a server with 10 G interfaces (u1, ESXi 5.5) and I installed SUSE linux as a virtual machine with adapter NIC VXNET3, but I don't want to install VMware tools. According to the article, VMtools are needed for VXNET3

    VMware KB: Choose one network adapter for your virtual machine

    So my question is: what happens to the performance of the network on this machine? (Saw that it basically works but not sure of the performance).

    Another question: in which case we have a virtual machine, but we do not want to install VMtools on it, which is recommended for this virtual machine NIC adapter?

    Thank you

    ekhmahg

    so my question is, what is the performance impact of not installing the VMtools when using VXNIC?

    None. Even if you have installed VMware tools, your BONES would still use the supplied kernel vmxnet3 module unless force you the installation of the VMware Tools (-clobber-kernel-modules = vmxnet3).

    Overwrite the supplied OS module is not recommended and besides if you're updating your kernel on a regular basis, you'll probably a newer version or at least the version module even as provided by the VMware tools (unless you keep bleeding edge with your updates of ESXi).

    the second question: If we do not want to install VMtools at all, what is the best recommended NIC adapter?

    vmxnet3. As you do not need to install the VMware Tools since the kernel module is provided by every modern Linux already.

    Change the advanced options on the 'Format Options' in the output module and change the MPEG level. You use a MPEG preset that has constraints of framerate and the size is not compatible with the settings of your comp.

    What happened to the feature to get around on the artboard by pressing the space bar and dragging with the mouse?

    cwalker,

    If it does not, it may be time for the list:

    Sometimes, (some) things may fail or stop working for no apparent reason. When (other) possible reasons/remedies do not work, it is perhaps a kind corruption (temporary or permanent), or even preference settings which disturbs, which can be cured with something on the following list put in place in order to provide a catch-all solution for otherwise intractable cases. It starts with a few easy suggestions and safe) 1 and 2) for cases less serious and goes two ways 3) and 4) to reset the default preferences (easily but irreversibly and more laboriously but more completely and also reversible), then follows a list 5) various other possibilities, and it ends with a complete reinstallation 6). If no other suggestion doesn't work, or if no other suggestion appears, you can start on the list and decide how to go or who can apply.

    The following is a general list of things, try when

    (A) the question is not in a specific file,

    (B) you have a printer installed, connected and turned on if it's a physical printer (you can use Adobe PDF/Acrobat Distiller as a printer by default without the need to have a printer on, of course you will need to specify when you really need print on paper), and

    (C) It is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media (see below).

    You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically may be corrupted/inconvenient preferences); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

    If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

    4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Illustrator/KB/preference-file-location-Illustrator.html

    5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

    Even worse, you can:

    6 (A) uninstall (check the box to delete the preferences, if any), B) run the cleanup tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC) and C) reinstall. It is important to use this step three way: otherwise, things may persist.

  • Missing tools in photoshop CS4

    Hello

    Just, I taken the plunge and bought Photoshop CS4.  I installed it but when I went to use it, it seems that the tool palette is incomplete.  The Magic Eraser isn't here.  Plain old gum is, but there is nothing behind it.  The same thing happens for other tools in layers in the palette.  This happened to someone else?  It is easily repairable?  Or I have a lemon?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • What happened to the insertion function. It was on the same line as file

    What happened to the insertion function? It was on the same line as the files, tools, etc. He's gone. If you want to insert a jpg you sent as an attachment. I have read through the help files and that you can't find the answer. I want my old Thunderbird back! Newer is not always better.

    I suspect that you have lost the Mail composition toolbar. Open an entry window, press and hold the < alt > key, type v and check the box for the mail toolbar. I would also allow the Menu bar while you are there.

    Another possibility, if the Insert option is missing in the mail toolbar, is that it is spent in composition in plain text mode. Open the settings page of the account assigned by right-clicking on the account in the left pane, select Composition & addressing and tick the box labelled "Dial using the HTML format".
