1. Re: Where did color go on paths in CS4?
Kurt Lang Oct 31, 2008 6:57 AM (in response to Kurt Lang)Okay, that's what I get for griping before trying a few more things (just installed the CS4 Creative Suite yesterday). The above information is only partially correct.
You do get color on path segments and anchor points, but they very between highly contrasted to almost invisible. Over white or yellow, they change to black. No problem there. Over a rich red, they turn kind of a salmon color. Not bad. But over a rich cyan or green, the colors are only a shade or two darker or lighter, depending on the color of the underlying pixels, making it difficult to see the path.
Second, you can make PS CS4 display paths in the old color contrasting scheme, but you must turn off Open GL Drawing in the preferences to do so. Which of course makes some things, like the Rotate View Tool inaccessible.
The cursor, no matter what settings you choose, still remains only black, white, or shades of gray. Ick!
