Hi Everyone,

Wonder if anyone can help.

I've been using photoshop CS5 for a year or so now but over last weekend a problem seems to have occurred in that I am unable to adjust the contrast using curves. If I add a new curves layer I don't get the grid with diagonal line to shift up or down as usual. Anyone any ideas on what might have happened and how I might fix this? Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Is it just curves? Do other things show up in the adjustments panel?

Hi Mono,

No it's not just curves, seems like all the adjustments I usually had no longer work. The layer is added but then I can't do anything with it!

I hope someone can cast some light on this.

Thanks in anticipation.

Is the adjustments panel open go to Windows > Adjustments to check.

Also go to Edit > Preferences > Interface and check that Auto show hidden panels is on.

Failing that you could try resetting the preferences, hold down Ctrl, Alt and Shift while starting Photoshop and it wil ask if you want to reset your preferences. This can be a bit drastic if you have tweaked a lot of the settings!

Best of luck

FIXED IT YAYYYYYY:t:

Did a system restore and that seems to have cured the problem.

Thanks
