amandalockphotography Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 My sister just got photoshop and she's having a problem. The hand tool isselected (lower left hand side of toolbar) and while she can right click onthings (clone, brush, etc), the minute she moves her cursor over to her picture,the hand tool is selected. Any ideas on how to get this to stop? I don't knowwhat would cause this, so any help would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_darnton1 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 The usual recommendation for Photoshop problems is to delete the preferences file. I can't tell you where this is for your particular version (it moves around a bit), but you can look it up on the web. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_darnton1 Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Better yet, read this: http://graphicssoft.about.com/cs/photoshop/ht/trashprefs.htm It tells a trick to delete the file on startup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian_murren Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Is here space bar stuck on her keyboard? that's automatically switch you to the hand tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benbangerter Posted May 27, 2008 Share Posted May 27, 2008 I have experienced this behavior with CS2 a couple of times. Restarting Photoshop did not fix the problem, but rebooting the computer did. Wierd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
