Hi All,

I’m new to Photoshop CS2. When using the Custom shape picker the image is so small it is very difficult to find on the screen. I realise that by using CTL-T I can then enlarge the image. Is the pinpoint image that I get at the moment considered standard, or is something wrong with my set-up.

John Spencer, with severe eyestrain.

John, just click and drag to drag out a larger version of the shape. If you hold the Shift key down as you drag, it will be proportional.

And while you’re experimenting with the Custom Shapes Tool, take a couple minutes to explore the variety of functions that can be accessed through the Options Bar.

In the Shape selection panel, click on the triangle-in-a-circle in the upper right corner, and try the "Large Thumbnail" option.

It seems Fixed Size is using. Watch options bar for drop-down list.

Hi Wesley,

That’s what I’ve been doing, I just thought that the first image would be a little larger!

Thanks for your interest

John
