Did Adobe also change the update default settings?
I ask because the other night I had to do some updates and I checked the options and “delete previous versions” was checked. I remember years ago it was checked and people had to be careful, but then Adobe changed the default so it was unchecked.
Now it’s checked again. Good thing I looked again.
Since this is just an update, not a new version, it shouldn’t affect anything but CC 2019. FWIW, when I first installed CC 2019 (14.0) all my previous versions were left untouched, so I don’t think any of my settings were changed.
I don t know but this new version only allows 3 undos! Please fix it
This has been happening since the upgrade to CC2019. I was hoping this update would fix it, but nope. Very annoying!
Since updating a few minutes ago, I notice that, on placing/drawing out a photo on a page, I’ve lost the forced proportional drawing of images. In other words, a vertical would draw only as a vertical, a horizontal as a horizontal. Now a vertical draws in a horizontal frame, as if forcing “Fit content proportionally” and I have to double-click on the frame handle to snap it to the photo. Has this default changed or am I doing something wrong here?
Ignore. Figured out the issue…. Thanks.
how did you figure it out?
It appeared to be something with the particular photo (from my iPhone) that was making that happen; other photos weren’t doing it.
I hope they soon will find a fix for the color settings as well. When changing it in Bridge, it does not stay changed, and make wrong colors in Indesign, Illustartor etc. And you need to change it everytime you start the applications. Also some fonts doesnt work in the new edition :(
Did they fix the color profile issue!
Did they fix the color profile issue?
why did they mess with the drop down menu in fonts? where did my short list of recent fonts used go???
Has anyone not been able to update to this newer version?
I hate the new document that pops up. Would prefer to go direct to document set-up. I work in numerous page sizes and find this more of a hassle than an advantage.
In the “General” tab of Preferences you can check “Use Legacy ‘New Document’ Dialog.”
