Mac user - for me I need to beware

[imagemaker]

While in the crop mode I held down the tab key and bang the screen was giving me an animation of elements that is unblieveable and then when I lifted finger it just kept going bonkers. Need to press option, comand, esc to get it to stop. I mention 'Mist' well this is better then 'Mist'. - stay tuned as I gain more insight or discovery into the MAC version I will give feed back.

Imagemaker,

When you press TAB it hides Elements ... what exactly was happening when you did it?

The image I was cropping got bigger several times then all of a sudden it got smaller and while doing the former it would move around the viewing area.

Now I was just doing some resizing of image screen as I had several tiled and had lost the thumbnails at the bottom just now and I discovered again by pressiong option, comand,esc but without clicking th force quite button elements stops flipping screens. - I can hear it say no, no don't froce quit...my sense of humor.

OK - when I try to crop the image it moves - there must be a key press that holds the image in place. That key pressing is how I ended up pressing the Tab. {{ Just don't press or hold down the Tap}} [[ it may go bonkers]]

You do not want to 'hold' the tab key down. Just a touch. I created what you were talking about. It will keep hiding and showing the windows. Looks like it's going bonkers but it is just responding to overcommmands.

Correct but at first I thought I had discovered elements 3 animation As for a DVD {which by the way is very good introduction to 3} purchase Kelby's 'elementgs 3 from Barns and Noble on the internet. almolst 15$ cheaper then in the store. [which I did - ouch]
