 Posted: Wed Apr 13, 2011 5:56 pm Post subject: Weird Bugs - Photoshop acting like Illustrator! |
 |
|
I've been using Photoshop since I was about 10 years old and I am now 22, but I have never encountered a problem like this before.
Just recently (within the last few months), Photoshop has been doing what it wants (like Illustrator) instead of what I want it to do.
1. Every once in a while, when using the marquee tool, I'll click to start dragging and it decides to create a marquee box for me before I even start the dragging process. The box just appears. It's really annoying. And it will continue to do it no matter how many times I try until I either minimize the program or until it just decides to stop
2. When using the move tool and dragging something, sometimes the object just flies across or out of the page. Again, I have to minimize and maximize to get it to stop. What the heck?
3. This is my most recent and most annoying bug. Say I have three layers: Layer 1, Layer 2, and Layer 3 -- if I select Layer 1 and try to move whatever is on that layer with the move tool, the second I click on the content, Photoshop chooses Layer 2 or Layer 3 and moves that instead. I've found that if I drew a marquee box around the content within the layer I want to move, it will sometimes work. I never used to have to do this though.
What happened? :C It's getting really frustrating and slowing me down. |

At a glance its all mouse related. So it may not be photoshop.
Has anything else being playing up lately? |

Unfortunately that makes two of us.
With problem number 3, when you click the content (layer 1) and it swaps the active layer (Layer 2 or 3), were there pixels visible at the point either directly below or above the mouse on layer two or three?
You can test this by hiding the layer visibility in the layer panels. |
