Hi,

I have just switched to Mac Photoshop CS4 from the Windows version. Is there any way you can set it to have a solid background for photos rather than having the Mac desktop as a background?

Help would be appreciated!

You can choose to run

CS4 as a "Windows" type program. Go to Window on the main menu and check off "Application Frame". That will give you the solid working space background.

Thanks very much. I spent ages looking for that!

Is there a way to change the background on CS2?

No, not that I'm aware off.

TBH, I like seeing the desktop through Ps - wish the Windows version was the same.

I don't see why it is so difficult to hit F after the image loads in. And me too prefers the image to be a floating window.
