Hi All

Using the mouse to manipulate selected tools in PS seems very clumsy at times especially when doing fine work. Are there any other options ?

Some tools work with the arrow keys.
You can also activate the Mouse Keys option in Windows which also gives more flexibility in PS

Use the Windows help menu and look for Mousekeys (one word – no space between mouse and keys)
This will give you all the info – there’s no point in us posting it here.

You can then control the cursor using the keypad as well as the mouse. You can get much more accurate positioning.
