I use PS6 on a PC with WIN Me. Everything has worked very well for at least a year. I opened PS6 and noticed two anomolies
1. The custom patterns that I have added to the fill option box i.e magic wand>edit>fill>select pattern, are now gone and all I have to choose from are some patterns which are probably preset.
2. When I try to use the quick mask button ( which now looks different i.e. has a shaded frame, I highlight an area ( now the highlight is light pink instead of red) and when I hit the button to the left of the quick mask button, the standard mode button, at the bottom of the left-hand toolbox, a problem arises i.e. the entire artwork is highlighted. There are now two areas highlighted, the original selected area PLUS the entire box around the artwork. If I try to use the fill everything is filled. How can I return to the original settings?
