I love the 4K Monitor for editing, its a dream , but I hit an issue last night. I was using the Distort / Liquify tool; and although the mouse went exactly where I wanted it to, the shrink and expand functions didnt work properly.
By that I mean, if one wanted to shrink an item and set the usual size of brush, it was as though it wasnt responding properly. Instead of say expanding in a uniform way it was as though only a small effect was created. To rectify this I had to get the centre much closer to the line I wanted to change, and the effect was less than on the Laptop.
So I thought I would go and adjust it - brush sensitvity and pressure sensitivity. Ooops discovered these control boxes were greyed out?
Thinking I had an installation propblem, I decided to try the old Laptop. So I hopped over to the 1920x 1080p laptop, and then I discovered they were also greyed out. This machine was also upgraded to Windows 10 Home.
Q1. Does Elements 13 support Win 10 ? But with the same size brush, on the Laptop it shrunk and expanded perfectly on the default setting. So it looks like 2 issues 1. It appears PSE 13 isn't working properly on Windows 10.
Q2. Could this be a Monitor/GPU/Monitor issue - in 4K . Due to refresh rates etc. This monitors native setting is 3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz. HP Z24s IPS UHD 4K
It says it has a "Response" time of 14ms grey to grey ( what is that?) surely it refreshes every 1/60th of a sec?
I was considering upgrading to the newer 27" version in this lineup and that has a Response time of 6ms grey to grey.
Could this response time be the issue?, or is it a GPU limitation? The GPU is MSI GTX 970 4GB RAM Gaming G4. So I Assume that is more than up to driving this monitor?
Q 3 Does anyone have PSE 13 and Windows 10? If so, Could you see if the brush pressure box is greyed out.
NB I am really not very au fait with this sw.
Q4. Could the difference in reaction of the "click" on the shrink/expand feature be due to the monitor/GPU sopport of the monitor/ or the Respnse time of the monitor.
Any help appreciated.
Oh well my first negative regarding the 4K screeen / setup. But not the end of the world as everything else seems perfect.
Q5. Am I right in that there is NO Support for PS Elements, just a user forum, that is hardly ever updated and only run by users?
If there is a support email address or link please let me know
