Hi ,
Elements users—when’s the last time you took a peek at your preferences? Are you aware of the many options available to you?
 This week’s free tutorial will have you using the Type tool. So, here’s a question for you:
After committing type, does your program:
Did you know you have a choice? You do. It’s a preference. How you set your preferences can make a difference in how a tutorial performs for you.
Here’s how to access this Type tool preference.
-
Press Ctrl K (Mac: Cmd K) to open Preferences.
-
In the dialog box, choose General.
-
Check or uncheck Select Move Tool After Committing Text.
Personally, I don’t like being forced back to the Move tool after committing type. I’m like, ”If I want the Move tool, I’ll get the Move tool. Okay?? Gosh!”
So, needless to say, I keep the preference unchecked. It is checked by default.
BTW, Photoshop is much less bossy. There’s no teleporting to tools over there. But, you have tons of other super-cool preferences to check out.
Have a great week.
P.S. Oh, and Happy Valentine’s Day. Enjoy Jenifer’s free kissy-huggy tutorial below.
