Adobe Photoshop Touch New Version
Roseanne Devon
Did Adobe demand you to upgrade to IOS 11 that was your doing your choice. Adobe Photoshop touch may well require the IOS version the Photoshop Touch was programmed for. Adobe historically does not support old software software and drop support for products. End of life for software is not confined to Adobe. Software that had been developed will some day will no longer be supported. A demand from you will not change the software community. I do not even think a request for support for Photoshop touch from you would be considered by Adobe. Then I do not work for Adobe I may be wrong but I do not think that I am.
Microsoft did the same thing, and all under their own control... The perfectly good MS Office 97 I owned stopped working (would not even install) when I moved from a WinXP computer to a Win7 computer... Microsoft had TOTAL control over their own products (unlike here, where Adobe has NO control over Apple's operating system) and I was forced to buy MS Office again to be able to use it... So if you want to blame someone for your program not working, contact Apple
Apple coz they are the ones making money from new systems. Every time You demand a free upgrade coz Apple upgraded the system you're demanding that every other software maker subsidise Apple. That's wrong. Free upgrades for new systems have got to stop.
I feel like we need to start a campaign to bring PS Touch back. We need to jumpstart Adobe's new PS Touch project. Probably starting with a socal media campaign. As much as a want to complain about what Adobe is currently offering, I think we need to focus on what we love. We need to write a PS Touch love story. We need to write PS Touch love songs. You said it best graphicshartist , I love how you put it ..
So the question remains unanswered; why will Adobe not up date Ps Touch for existing users? It is the very best peice of photo editing software devised To date. I have made contact with Adobe support only to be very disappointed by the response.
No it was not ambiguous, just not very helpful. When I spoke to the help line they did not give a reasonable explanation for why there was not going to be an up date to ISO 11. Thus rendering the product useless. Which means I cannot update my apple ipad in fear of losing PS touch. In fact if you search the Adobe website they have all but disowned the product . The only reference to it is on the Adobe Forum. Ever feel like your going round in a circle!
Not the best in customer care and after service for your products Adobe. In fact I wish another company would design a similar product because I would not hesitate in dumping Adobe in the way they have dumped us! I would be very wart to ever use Adobe again. Your lack of customer care and failure to develop this product further reflects serious shortcomings.
I think you just will not accept the answer no. But Adobe made their plans crystal clear in that announcement. They do have a very solid track record of abandoning all products but the most successful, over many decades.
Whaaaaaat.I'm finding it incredibly hard to believe that every graphics program supports using the brush and pen through touch screens EXCEPT for Photoshop, the Queen of them all. Am I really going to have to draw in GIMP?I'm well aware that touch screens aren't nearly as ideal as graphic tablets but really, GIMP even supports pressure sensitivity and Photoshop doesn't support anything?Please, please incorporate this feature, it should have come standard years ago.
I have seen multiple, different answers on how to use a touchscreen with Photoshop. I have the lastest version currently installed, CC 2017, I have a dell Windows 10 touchscreen pc, and a wacom drawing pen and tablet.
People have said it is impossible to draw with fingers or a standard stylus. Some say there's a patch for it, and some say there is a way if you have a wacom, which I do. I cannot find an answer ANYWHERE. I'd love an answer, and asap please if possible!
I can use my fingers to hit options, such as Edit, Select, Colors, different tools... And I can use the finger gestures such as zoom and pan. But how do I draw with the brushes, with my finger or a standard stylus? Please help me. I am an artist who would love a touchscreen drawing capability with my favorite program Photoshop.
You can, like other apps, use fingers to press buttons, menu items, scroll bars, etc. You can't use fingers to paint. Various styli respond differently, some work, some don't. with my Microsoft Surface Pro 3, I have no problem painting with the stylus - is it as good as a Wacom, no, but it works.
Touch support seems to vary between touch devices. You can paint with some touch devices with you finger if you can use your finger like a mouse. That means you need to be able to use something as a left mouse button you can hold down to flow paint. For example on my Wacom Intuos Pro I can set an express key as a left mouse click button. Selecting Photoshop Brush tool and holding the express click key down I can Paint with my finger. On My Surface Pro 3 I can hold down the touch pad left click and Paint with my finger using the touch pad. I can not paint with the surface Pro 3 Touch Screen with my finger while holding the touch pad left click. I can Paint with my Bluetooth mouse while holding the touch pad left click. The only Finger Paint control I see in Photoshop is in the Smudge tool option bar and it not for using your finger it is for using the foreground color paunt to smudge with. The smudge tool icon is a finger. The only touch screen I have on a PC is the one on my surface pro 3 and it also supports a pen so I can paint with its pen but not with a stylus. I do not know why I can not paint with my finger when the pen is nowhere near the display. IMO I should be able to. I do not how other touch screen drivers work on touch displays that do not have pens support. So I write touch support varies between touch devices.
Touch screen support is really not good for panting there is no finger or brush cursor no good way to position the brush then start paint flow. With a Pen not a stylus there is a brush cursor when the pen is near the screen so you can position the brush then touch the display and paint with the pen with pressure control. There need to be a device to sense where the pen is and when its neat the pen sensing device in the display or tablet. So the surface also has a pen sensing device built into the display. It is not just a touch screen.
for clarity I have a wacom tablet but I do not currently have it on me and I need to do a piece of artwork last minute, and it's very frustrating using the touchpad. I don't see why my touchscreen isn't compatible with photoshop, do I need some sort of stylus or something?
If you mean you can not finger paint with your touch screen that is correct. Photoshop supports touch gestures not finger painting. You should be able to paint with a mouse or touch pad which have a left click button your finger lacks. Your Wacom will also work.
I've just bought a Surface Book 2, which has a touch screen. I've seen that for example Illustrator and InDesign have a very own touch workspace, while Photoshop CC 2018 (almost) doesn't support touch at all. Sure, I can zoom, click on tools and stuff, but shouldn't I be able to just draw with my finger? I don't have a pen, a stylus or whatever you want to call it. I'd just like to draw with my finger.
Hi, May I ask if a stylus (Lenovo Active Pen) will work or not on a yoga 520?
I am just about to purchase the laptop, but the only reason to buy touch screen is to use the screen with stylus for PS.
Photoshop is working as designed. Touch screen gestures are supported in Photoshop. Touch screen Finger Painting is not support for Photoshop Brush devices need to have buttons like left and right click and Click and hold. Like Track Pads and Wacom Tablets with touch. You can finger paint in Photoshop using those touch devices. Touch Screen support does not provide button support. Stylus and fingers also do not have buttons. You can not position the Paint Brush Cursor with your finger mover it to where you want to paint then click to start painting. Like you can with a digital pen and touch devices with buttons.
I just bought a 15.6" Asus Q500A touchscreen laptop with Windows 8. I downloaded photoshop and the 'touch app plug-ins' through the Adobe Application Manager for creative cloud. When I open a file in PS and select the brush(or any other) tool if I use the touch screen to drag it accross the canvas nothing happens. It still works with my mouse though.
That depends on what you mean by move the cursor. The cursor is not visible when using the touch screen but reappears when you go back to the mouse. But you are able to do everything the mouse does, such as click, drag, right click, etc..
I've been playing around with it to try and find a solution and have found that the brush tool will draw only if I drag it in from outside the canvas. Otherwise it just has a weird panning effect when zoomed in or does nothing zoomed completely out.
I don't see how this would be the case, as It works fine in ms paint and Adobe Illustrator(Just installed and tested this). It seems to be only Photoshop that has an issue. Plus, it still draws when it is started outside of the canvas.
No Photoshop requires a particular API to be used. Microsoft ink API is not supported by Photoshop. Microsoft surface pro has new drivers from Wacom that should work with the surface and other pc with windows and some hardware touch support. You need to chect with Asus to see what hardware they use. here the link to the Wacom Drivers.
Adobe Customer Support is very poor. Photoshop requires device driver that use WinTab API for pen support Adobe will not support dirvers that use Microsoft Ink API for pen support. Adobe states Ink API lack options used by Photoshop.
Please read the links I gave you. The driver is for Windows 7 and Windows 8. Why are you concerned with the Graphics Card. The driver is for the pen and touch hardware not Video hardware chipset. Also try searching the web for more information.
