Creating a Preview on a Mac
« on: 2019 July 21 07:39:49 »
No here is a real stupid question but I just can't find the answer.

How do you create preview on a Mac by dragging the mouse, I can only get the Create Preview dialogue box up which I do't want. It works fine on my MacBook but not on my iMac

Image > Mode > New Preview is greyed out and Alt-N doesn't do anything

check to make sure "Preview > Show Previews" is ticked. i think if it's unticked then none of the preview creation keyboard shortcuts or toolbar shortcuts work.

Hi Rob,

No that is checked....so I did a reset with CTRL on load and that sorted it.

Thanks for your trouble.
