The Hard Mix is a new color mode. I can’t find the explanation about it in Help document. Could someone tell me how to explain it and how it works ?

Versions is a new command on File menu. I guess it is releated to the Version Cue. How can I make the command from gray to dark (active).

Questions about Photoshop CS, thanks.

Only be having Version Cue active, and Version Cue only ships with the full Creative Suite, not with individual applications and is not available as a stand alone product.

Hard Mix is basically Color Burn and Color Dodge (Basically Overlay on steroids) with a posterization routine thrown in–haven’t found a use for it yet…

Ok, now I see–you can change both the fill opacity and the layer opacity to come up with something as subtle as the cutout filter or as dramatic as posterization–pretty neat guys…but I still want shadow/highlight as an adjustment layer!
