Basic Help Regarding PS CS5 on the Mac Please...
How do I make it behave more like CS2 on windows?
I know that sounds silly, but Im sure anyone using cs5 will understand me... I just wanna load up a few pics and have them float in the workspace. Click on a pic, and be able to drag a layer from one to the other. Open a new pic and have it appear next to the others, in its own little frame... Like my older windows version. At the moment, I seem to have to manually select, float freely and then whenever I open a new pic, either all the others disappear, and it takes over the entire screen? Plus I cant drag layers without two pics open side by side. When I have them set to float free, and open a new one, it becomes part of an open one, and its confusing. I am used to having a load of pics open at the same time, and just stacking them manually on top of each other and swopping between them freely. I'm sure anyone using CS5 on Mac, and has used CS2 on windows before knows exactly what I mean. I'd just like it set like 'normal' as my default setting... |

Drives me crazy too, for the exact same reason. I have CS4 and it's Window>Arrange>Float All in Windows - No idea if you'll have the same options but it's the best I can offer.

Yeah, I have found Window>Arrange>Float All in Windows but then if you open a new pic, it appears in the frame of one of the pics already open ! Not as a new pic, and not as a layer... But with an option to switch between them, at the top of that particular image frame.... Plus, everytime I launch PS, I have to do the Window>Arrange>Float All in Windows each time, and it doesn't always stick ! So I have to do it again... I'm obviously doing something wrong, cause this cannot be progress ! |

In Preferences you can choose to have new windows open as new windows and not "tabbed" That solved all of my problems

Yeah, it was in the preferences, under interface I had to uncheck open documents as tabs, which was checked by default, and then everything was normal.

You can still drag and drop in the tabbed view. You just drag the layer to the tab you want to copy it to. It's not that difficult.
They didn't add in these features to make it more difficult. They did it because it's more efficient.

![]() Its a big step from CS2 on Win to CS5 on Mac, and a lot of the everyday things, I could do without thinking (Keyboard short cuts etc) have changed and need to be relearnt. So while I am re learning, I want it as 'normal' as possible lol |

I'm NEVER going to use tabs, its hell more efficient for me to use hot corners to find the image I want to work on.
