Photoshop CS4 Annoyances

If you are working with Adobe Photoshop CS4, you may be encountering few annoyances - I certainly am. Some of these are simple, and I need to get over it; such as the exclusion of filters and plug-ins that I used to use. (The extract filter was nice, and I’ll miss it, but there are other ways to achieve the same thing.)

One annoyance that I cannot deal with is the enabling of trackpad gestures with no preference option to turn them off.

Really?! We conduct usability tests for a reason…

Anyway, I rarely develop imagery on my laptop, but I frequently make minor corrections with it. Trackpad gestures males that practically impossible for me. Perhaps, I am clumsy, or maybe I’m just uncoordinated; but I’m obviously not the only one with this challenge. Adobe has released a patch (a plug-in) to disable this “feature.”

I’m going to comment this on your blog because people might benefit from this question.

I started using CS4 trial today because I’m waiting on my purchased software that refuses to come. And I downloaded some feather brushes from the adobe sight that are freeware. Is this going to be a copyright issue when designing the logo for my company?? Or because its on the site its ok? I figured if anyone would know this, you would!

Thanks!

Hehe - I relinquished precision on my syntax for clarity : )

Midge, the brushes shouldn’t be an issue since they are a tool you are using for your own creative work. Nonetheless, it would be good to review the license agreement since some companies are crazy about that…
