Photoshop having time delays and issues with heavy banding
Hello, I am using Photoshop CS6 Extended on a Power Mac, system 10.9 OS X Mavericks. I am unable to upgrade my computer or software at this time.
I have a file 30 by 30 300 DPI PSB only three layers. The problem I am encountering is a time delay between brush strokes wich is in return creating heavy banding. I am using a soft brush with very low opacity and low flow. My brush setting in the past has not been a problem. The power output is at 100 % capacity and have plenty of room on my hard drive and have a backup external drive as well.
I do understand why I am encountering the time delays and banding what I can do to resolve the issue?
How was this done? Comparison
photoshop problem
When I open up PS I no longer see my image or masks when selecting layers. It's replaced with the brush tool icon. What happened?
Installing BayPhoto ICC Profile Into PS6 (Using Windows 7 Professional)
Hi:
I'm trying to an install an ICC profile from BayPhoto in Photoshop 6 using the Windows 7 Professional OS. The instructions: View menu > Proof Setup > Custom > Locate BayViewing_1E103108 from the list of profiles. It's not in the drop-down list and I have no idea how to include it so Adobe can recognize it.
The profile can be found here: BayViewing_1E103108.icc (it's a hyper-link from: Bay Photo Lab | Bay Photo Lab's ICC Profile ) I reviewed some of the previous answers to similar questions, but for the most part the answers dealt with specific printers.
Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

PS Free Trial - Can't Get Past License Agreement
I downloaded Photoshop CC's free trial a couple days ago. The Creative Cloud application installed fine, and PS seems to have installed as well, however, when I click on it, the Adobe Software License Agreement pops up and although I hit "agree," about 5 seconds later, the window pops up again. I repeat the process and the window pops up yet again. I have 5 days in my free trial left and I've yet to try it out. I don't know why I can't get past this window and this has never happened to me before on any program.
Does anyone have an advice on what I should do? Thank you
Problem with opacity being linked to pressure sensitivity in Photoshop cc
Recently, whenever I apply less pressure to the brush tool it gets a much lower opacity. To achieve an opaque line I have to press down much harder than is good for my nib. I've tried every possible opacity and pressure sensitivity slider, but nothing seems to change. The problem was also affecting the fill tool, as it comes out at around 20% opacity, even though the interface shows opacity to be 100%. This problem is making coloring exceedingly difficult, so any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Photoshop - before and after
I frequently use the "before and after" in Lightroom, but could not find it in Photoshop. Does this feature exist in Photoshop?

Live draw Photoshop elements
I currently own photoshop elements on my PC and have finally figured out how to draw properly on paper. Only problem is my hands aren't as steady with a mouse. So this got me thinking about a 'live drawing' feature for photoshop elements (And family). Is there already a feature like this where I can draw on another device and have it move and appear what I draw on photoshop elements? If that's confusing im just asking if I can draw on a phone or ipad and have it appear on my PC's photoshop elements as I draw. Any help with thins or something similar PLEASE tell me!!!

Script to stroke, change canvas size and place file name
Hello to you all.
I am at least new to scripting and even more to Photoshop.
The case:
I am trying to use JavaScript to create a way to make a repeatable process in Photoshop.
What I want to do is the following:
- In a file, select all and create a stroke, CMYK 100%Y, 2px, inside. Works
- Increase canvas size by 30px (1cm in 72dpi) on the top side.
- Place the file name in the top-left corner of the canvas. Works
In case we can do it, it would be the best to use this in a a bunch of files.
Following what I have already done. Be gentle, it is a puzzle of internet, actions and me.
// this script is a variation of the script addTimeStamp.js that is installed with PH7

Batch assembling images in different folders
(
as I've been told this requires scripting)Hello,
I have two folders with files named with numbers (from 0 to 400 or 500 something). The filenames are the same in each of the two folders. How can I automate the "assembly" of an image using the files with the same name?
Both 0.png and 0.png are 80x80, and I need to assemble them into one 80x160 file.
I know a bit about Batch but I don't know how to make it open a file with its same name from another folder or how to place it (I know how to increase canvas size).
To go over the desired outcome again:
- I have many files named after numbers in different folders.
- I need to open all the files (all 80x80) in one folder, and open the same file with the same filename (so 0.png opens 0.png in the other folder, 1.png opens 1.png...)
- Increase canvas size (this I can do with an Action, but I do not know how to insert it into a script either)
- Place the second file at a particular location (after the first 80x80 file, after the canvas has been enlarged to 80x160)
- Save to a third folder, with the same filename
Any help is welcome. Thank you.
I am currently taking a look at these threads:
I think I can use the first thread to merge the files. Right now Im batch enlarging canvas size, so all are 80x160 (increasing size from opposite directions), so when they merge, both images are where they need to be. I will report as soon as I can.
Photoshop JavaScript Scripting
Hello!
I am automating some Photoshop tasks and I was wondering if there is a way to pass variables into action calls.
For example when writing a JavaScript script for Photoshop I can call for Photoshop to execute actions with the following command...
app.doAction('[action name]', '[action file]');
I would like to have my script execute actions to change color fill of an image layer, however I would like to be able to pass in a specific color into the action as a variable, as writing out an action for every single hex color code is not practical. If anyone can offer some solutions or workarounds for this I would greatly appreciate it.
I know that I can write a script to select layers in the document and fill in the color of the selection, however this does not seem to always work, as I get photoshop errors when calling a the .fill command on selected layer(s)...
Thanks in advanced !
When trying to name the file 1.1.jpeg or 2.1.jpeg or 3.1.jpeg etc. PS thinks that the ".1" is an extension.
So when I open a Jpeg and the first and the only action that I do is Crop after which I immediately proceed to Save As ----> and later save it as another Jpeg named "2.1" or "3.1" or "5.3" or whatever Photoshop views everything after the "." as an extension so what ends up happening is I end up with an unreadable file name "2" with an extension of ".1" and not "2.1.jpeg" as I intend it to be. Is that a bug? Or am I doing something wrong? (Now what I do is I just save it "blah", and then go back and change the name to 2.1, 3.1, 5.4, 7.6 etc. etc. in the folder. but it's very inconvenient). Please help!
