ok…………here goes

in ps7 when you zoomed into a photo and started to use the lasso too to cut out a selection, you could press and hold the spacebar and the hand tool would appear. this would allow you to move around the screen without dropping your lasso.

this does not appear to work in CS. When you push the spacebar when youre magnified, the hadn tool does appear, but only if youve not started to make a selection.

Any ideas?

I just tried it in CS and it works fine, even part way thru a selection. I can move around anywhere in the window just as in V7.

Any ideas?

I haven’t played with it yet but there are various keyboard shortcut options you can now set. Are you using something other than the default one? Perhaps with one of them the spacebar does something different? Just a guess …

Keep us posted if you find the cure.

Keyboard shortcuts don’t work with pirate versions of cs.

If you are using a bootleg version of CS from one of the "warez" sites, your control key and spacebar won’t work properly. Are you having this problem on a legal, licensed copy? if so, I recommend you call Adobe technical support; the behavior you describe does not sound like it’s correct for legitimate versions of Photoshop.

try it and let me know.

As you’ve been told elsewhere, it does indeed work in CS.

Any ideas?

Try re-installing your keyboard drivers.

If you’re using an activation crack and haven’t purchased PSCS, disregard any good advice you get except buying a legitimate copy.

If you have purchased PS/CS and are using an activation crack because you find Adobe’s embracing such intrusionware offensive, there is a better version of it going around.

Works fine for me, I can use spacebar to move or cntrl-space to zoom in even in the middle of a stroke part way thru defining a polygonal shape.

Do you have a licensed copy?

Yes, absolutely; it works fine with the regular lasso or the polygonal lasso, even with the pen tools. It works just as it did in PS 7. I zoom in, then start using one of the above tools to make a selection, then hold down the spacebar and the hand tool appears so I can move the image around. Then when I release the spacebar I am able to continue with the selection without dropping the selection tool. No problem. Sorry to hear you are having a problem, but it should work just as it did in the previous version. Even the manual states this function.
