rob_x2004 Posted August 31, 2009 Share #1 Posted August 31, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Decided to have a look at the old Dog and was shuffling things about the work area. I minimized the toolbox down to what you see, but it has no handles and I cant slide it open again. Of course it is still live and the feather takes me to adobes spend a dollar page, but I cant get to the tools. Every other box has handles. I can shift it round even off the edge of screen and recover it. Cant find anything to maximize it again in any of the indexes. Whats the trick? ....

Advertisement Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Hi rob_x2004, Take a look here Recover Toolbox Photoshop.. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
rob_x2004 Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share #2 Posted August 31, 2009 Got it back with the default workspace. Now I cant find how I adjusted it, it doesnt seem to have handles? Stuck with a vertical two column box? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
farnz Posted August 31, 2009 Share #3 Posted August 31, 2009 Rob, To get it from a shorter 2 column vertical box to a longer single column just click on the double arrows at the top of the Toolbox palette and it toggles between the two. If that doesn't work your toolbox must be broken and you'll need another one but I think Jimmy left his old one at the back of the shed after the last storm. Just shake the spiders off it and it's yours to take away. The stillsons and the crescent may not be up to much anymore but there's some good heavy hammers for "adjusting" stuff. Pete.

rob_x2004 Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share #4 Posted August 31, 2009 Thanks Pete, I dont seem to have a toggle though. This is my toolbox, am I missing something there? From a Corel user point of view I love that Photoshop tells you what you can and cannot do, and how much realestate you lose to the workspace pallets and dockers. Must have been developed by accountants and beancounters. Paintbrushes feel seriously weird. Handle differently too. I can see why the artists use the smudge all the time. .....

Pete, Rob is using CS2, that feature didn't come in until 3 or 4 (I'm pretty sure). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob_x2004 Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share #6 Posted August 31, 2009 I have CS4 coming so I was doing some get familiar. Can you customize toolbars yet? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah - that explains it - I'm using CS3. My 7 year old PC won't run CS4 unfortunately - something to do with not having SSLs iirc (not Secure Sockets Layer, some type of dll that won't work with my chipset.) I'm waiting for Win7 to be released so I can buy a pc with it pre-installed and skip the dreaded Vista completely. Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WPalank Posted August 31, 2009 Share #8 Posted August 31, 2009 I have CS4 coming so I was doing some get familiar. Can you customize toolbars yet? Rob, Here's some stuff to make you dangerous. If you scroll down, there is a thing called Adobe Configurator (which I have never used) that I think you can customize about anything in the application.

rob_x2004 Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share #9 Posted September 1, 2009 Ohhh thank God for that. Its only about ten years late in coming. Bet its only half the job though. You still need to ba able to get all your general file, edit and colour management stuff itno a bar, not just the tools. What would be nice if they went to Ctrl-A,C,V,X,Z like everyone else. They could still use the M,J stuff for the specific dedicated. Hopefully its all there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
