Mac OS 10.5.2 fixes Photoshop transform-crop problems




(Above: Screenshot of my options bar after about 30 transformations. Still working fine.)



Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard) users who use Photoshop have been patiently waiting for some annoying little bugs to be squashed. The wait is over, the recently released Mac OS 10.5.2 update fixes the transform-crop-numeric settings bug where any numeric transformation or setting in the options bar would only work properly the first time. I've only had a short time to test it but it seems to work perfectly. I always recommend waiting a week or more before performing any major update to a working production machine - let everyone else do the bug testing while you get your work out on time.

The update works great, but there is a problem. If you are using Linotype Font XplorerX you will need to update it to version 1.2.3. Otherwise none of your CS3 applications will run. After the update, everything will be just fine!

Also be aware that there is another update from Apple (Graphics Update) that you need to run after the larger system update!
