Hello there !
I've been working with PS for a while, but only recently I started going pro, after getting hired somewhere else where I take photos of products and I have to edit them in PS (white/transparent background, removal of scratches & stains etc.).
Generally I don't have major problems, but sometimes, weird things happen, that I just don't understand:
1. I try to use keyboard shortcuts but they don't work until pressing ESC or left clicking like I'm using the current tool on the image. For instance, I try to CTRL+S (save), but nothing happens. I press the mouse button or ESC, I press CTRL+S again, and it saves the document. Or I press L, for the lasso tool, but instead I get the layer menu dropping down from the main menu. That's quite peculiar, because that is what happens when I press ALT+L, but I certainly don't have ALT pressed while trying to get my lasso tool. Again, I just get rid of the menu by clicking somewhere, and when I press L I finally get my lasso tool.
2. Using the brush, usually with quite a large one. I trace a line, but the trace is not continuous, it's like it stutters along the way and it's drawing a brush-shape every X milliseconds. I enhanced the performance settings, allowing more RAM and everything, I still get this behaviour.
That's all I have for now, I'll come back with other issues if I have any left. They're by no means a big deal, but I could do without these glitches, sometimes it's annoying, when you have a lot of work to do.
I have Photoshop CS5. |
