Hand tool 'locked'

153 views2 repliesLast post: 11/2/2008
Hi all, I have a simple problem:

In Photoshop CS3, the hand tool is the only tool I can now use: no matter what tool I click, the hand tool stays, nothing else happens. I tried restarting Photoshop and that didn't work. Any ideas?

Thanks heaps!

Stuck space bar?

Try tapping it a couple times to unstick it.

Happens to me too. I'd like to take my keyboard apart and clean it—just because it really needs it (ashes, eyelashes, cat hairs, dust, crumbs, etc), but it's a particularly tough one to disassemble.

Now, having said that, I DO think there's something in the software (I'm using PS CS2 on Mac)that causes the "Hand Tool" to stick, because it'll happen in PS (tapping the space bar fixes it), but I've never seen a long stream of repeating spaces being generated in any other app where I type text, for example.
