Posted: Thu Aug 16, 2007 2:45 pm Post subject: "Hand" Cursor |
|
|
I just recently downloaded the Adobe Photoshop CS3 Trial, and I've been using it for a couple days now. I was using it today, and I don't know what I did, but my cursor is a 'Hand', but it seems I cannot do anything, or change to a different tool, such as a brush. I'll click the brush tool, but the cursor will remain the 'Hand', and same with all the other tools. I also opened another version of Photoshop that I own (Adobe photoshop 5.0), and the cursor there is also a 'Hand', and it's the same problem as in CS3.
I really don't know what to do. I'm reinstalling the program but I'm not sure that will do the trick, seeing as it's also a problem in my other version, 5.0.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! |

Seriously, don't re-install it, just simply press the spacebar when in photoshop. |

Usually the hand appears when you have the spacebar held down. It helps you navigate the image easier. As mentioned above I'd try tapping the spacebar again when in photoshop. |

yeah, i was just trying to open something and edit it real quick, when doing it, the same thing happened to me.. D; so i put my head down on my keyboard after many futile attempts and then i look up and it was the paint brush! () so, that is the simplesolution, i hope you didn't go through the trouble of reinstalling ps. (i was on win-xp) |
