Faster and better pictures in PS CS4
Depending on your graphics card, your pictures in PS can be much faster and
better looking, for example in 33% it looks pretty bad, but in 50 it's OK. Go to: Edit - Prefs - Performance Click the box under GPU. Restart. If it's all OK you should now see in and out zooming in real time and all levels sharp. If it doesn't, get a better graphics card: it's worth it! -- --- Focus |

The way CS4 taps the GPU is underwhelming at best.

If you have 4 pixel square and zoom to make it 16 its going to look better then splitting them to get a 12 Pixel sq. Same works in reverse. Paint shop Pro used to have fixed step's of zoom but folks wanted it to be like PS because That more expensive prog must be right to interpolarate everything |

Interpolating images for viewing *while I'm editing* is the silliest idea ever. and moves the software along with the modern video cards further away from being graphics editing cards than ever before There's a reason image editing programs other than Adobe zoomed by factors, it was to avoid interpolating. |

There are somethings I like about CS4 and some I have to still get familiar with. I am using the Standard version, I don't need or use the 3D or video stuff. Overall It works pretty well for me. I am using it on a PowerBook Pro 17 2.93G with the dual switchable option NVIDIA GeForce 9400M and 9600M GT. -- Regards, Savageduck |
