Selecting colour picker causes programme to crash

267 views2 repliesLast post: 4/6/2007
I am using Photoshop CS2 and have created a text layer. I then wish to stroke the text. When I select any of the available ways of getting to a stroke selection, I select stroke, then select the colour picker box, the picker dialogue box comes up, I can select a colour, but there is no OK or Cancel box within the colour picker box. I have noticed that the same lack of OK or Cancel boxes is in the Glow dialogue boxes either.

If I directly select stroke from the main selection drop down, I immediately get an application error that reads "The instruction at 0x04ebd17c referenced memory at 0x000000014. The memory could not be "read"." The programme is then aborted. Any ideas anyone?

Did you either install CS2 into the same directory as CS1, or set your additional plugins directory for CS2 to point to the CS1 main plugins directory?

Thanks for that Michael

Dont' know what happened, but I've come back in during our weekend after the PC had been off for a while and now all is well. The colour picker box is as it should look and I can select the colours I wish to for stroking text. Most strange. I think that when CS2 was installed on this machine, it did go into the same directory as where CS1 was. I installed the Adobe Production suite on the machine and just followed the prompts.
