I mention "possible" because it may be my system and not Photoshop, but here goes.
Recently, the Northeast/Midwest power problems reeked havoc on my system. I lost my 19" monitor and was forced to use my spare 15" monitor(ugh!). When I reconfigured the system (fixed the corrupted bios) and set up to use the 15" monitor I found I could no longer use Levels, Color Balance, and Curves when using Photoshop. The program would simply lock up. With all the other problems, I figured PS was corrupted, so I reinstalled. Didn’t help.
To make a long story semi-short, when I changed my screen resolution from 1280×1024 to 800×600 (because of the smaller monitor), Photoshop didn’t seem to notice the resolution change when an action called for a dialog box. Any action where a dialog box was needed would not work because the dialog boxes were loading wayyyy off the screen (when I used them in the 1280×1024 resolution I keep near the right edge of the screen).
The way I fixed it was going back to 1280 X 1024 doing the actions which took dialog boxes, putting them in the center of the screen, then I changed back to 800×600 (ugh!) and was able to use the program.
Before posting, I tried to search this topic to see if this problem had been mentioned before. I was unable to find anyone else with the problem. So, I don’t know if this is a problem particular to my system, or if it hasn’t come up before. It would have saved a lot of headaches (then I already had–where’s that UPS catalog…) if Photoshop had taken a screen resolution change into account when generating dialog boxes.
Thanks
