having two lines of text isn't a freakish request still, can't they make it better? like what excuse is there for keeping poo poo terrible "change is hard" - people who should be smart enough to embrace change

creative cloud is loving trash. photoshop is "good" because as others have said, they own patents on things so theyre the only ones that do certain tools intuitively, but those tools are just sitting in stagnant rust water

creative cloud for teams is awesome for CJs. no "but he has CS5 and I have CS6 and somehow there's something not compatible in my files" garbage. everyone's on the same version. no janitoring license keys or any of that bullshit. just send invites to email accts. person's gone? yank the license back and reassign to the new guy. no big deal. no "please put in an order for this software" bullshit. just click "add account" and tick up the monthly subscription. not my money, not my problem. like yeah maybe if i was a pennypincher i'd be boohoo about CC. but as long as it's not my money i don't give a gently caress, poo poo's awesome, i am dealing w/ it.

echinopsis posted:having two lines of text isn't a freakish request no you're trying to do it wrong if you'd set your pixel resolution correctly 72 points is usually plenty [1 inch letters], behold the least understood dialog in the history of software:  points and pixels are different units, a point is 1/72 of an inch and a pixel can be of any size off the top of my head here's how to make text big:
there's plenty of janky poo poo in photoshop but to complain it's to hard to make text big is a reflection on you, not the software

i seem to recall you saying that years ago and i hadnt forgotten i just never changed it coz usually i just hit ctrl n, enter, ctrl v. i dont want to have to click into a box and change a thing. i like that photoshop automatically pulls the image size from clipboard

any box in blender that has a number, i can click in it and drag and that value goes up and down. photoshop should have this what about typing in that number when you are entering the threshold of the magic eraser "only a moron uses the magic eraser" - the kind of defence people use against the lovely things in photoshop what about the terrible hold over of blurs in the effects dialopgue.. blur.. blur more... jesus christ and i havent found a way to change the bkending mode when bluring that would actually be handy
