Setting A Desired Default for Open or New

Hey Gang,

I have a quick question that just goes to preference.

When I open a document or create one anew the working space window is sized to the exact image of the graphic. Each time then (just for preference) I pull the window out a little larger so that I can see the space outside my graphic.

Is there a way, however, that I can set my defaults though so that each time I open a graphic I reveal a bit of this non-work space? Or if I want to work this way do I have to Open - then drag the window out a little larger each time.

Thanks!

press "F" to change the views to fullscreen.

Hey Paavo,

Thanks. And, Man - lol - I gotta say it. That's one heck of an avatar ya got there... lol :D

Maybe one day I'll be so brave... lol

I have the F key down and all. Full screen, etc.. I was just wondering about the possiblity of this setting. I should add also - I don't really need this. I can accomplish what I want very easily just by dragging out my window a little larger. However, that's an extra step. I was hoping there might be some way to set this as a default so that I wouldn't even have to use a short cut. But really - it's just a little thing that goes to my personal prefereance. I'm not aware of any other graphics program that opens a file this way either.

Thanks anyway though, Man. And HA!

Watch out for that web cam. :D

I always hit F after I open a new image / create a new canvas, it's like when you take a dump, you'll wipe your arse.

(no need to get into detail now!)

:D

And that's how my face looks all the time, I have issues. :(

:p

and if your using ver 7 onward - tweak the palette arrangements to a minimum...
ie dock the ones u use the most into a single pallette by click on drag on the tab into a common one, or drag them up to the the docking well, when content with the arrangement go to 'Window/Workspace/Save Worspace' and use that workspace everytime PS opens....

its no shortcut, but can minimize on the clutter in your work area...

cheers
