Photoshop CS6 Retina Display Support Coming on December 11?

MacRumors · Nov 28, 2012, 09:21 AM

Macotakara notes that Adobe's promotional materials for its upcoming Create Now Live event on December 11 appear to show a 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro running Photoshop CS6 in high-resolution Retina mode.

Adobe announced in late August that it would be bringing Retina display support to Photoshop CS6 "this Fall", with the company's other applications also receiving updates "over the next few months". Several of those updates have already appeared, but Photoshop will be the most popular of the company's applications to receive the upgrade to Retina resolution.

Good. CS5 looks TERRIBLE on my rMBP.

KindredMAC · Nov 28, 2012, 09:35 AM

I'm personally more in a hurry for Illustrator and InDesign to be Retina compliant.

dlewis23 · Nov 28, 2012, 09:36 AM

Hopefully they have a fix a few of the other annoying issues in CS6.

coder12 · Nov 28, 2012, 09:36 AM

Been waiting for this and Dreamweaver support... Pixelmator has been great on the RMBP.

bertman · Nov 28, 2012, 09:37 AM

Guess I'll need better reading (monitor) glasses! 45 tain't 25...

multipasser · Nov 28, 2012, 09:38 AM

I hope they change the croptool back to cs5 standaard. The croptool in cs6 is so bad!!

Typetool is still slow when loading for the first time.
Lots of other features that need attention.

lozpop · Nov 28, 2012, 09:40 AM

By the way, Adobe really needs competitors.

I love the new crop tool in cs6. But hey, if you like the old version, at least just put an option in there to use the old version and let us who like the new version continue to use it.

I'm still not sure why would web designers use a Retina MacBook Pro for design. Designing things on a screen that is different from what most people are using seems troublesome.

A bit off topic, but dream weaver is my favourite name for a coding application

most web devs i know that us retina books use them in scaled resolution so they have more screen real estate

Uplift · Nov 28, 2012, 09:45 AM

It really hasn't bothered me, but then again i've been doing more print work than web lately so no pixel perfect stuff which would have been difficult. The interface seems OK, definitely seen worse and the cavas is a little bit blurry but it's hardly a show stopper (unless your doing pixel perfect stuff)

There was a lot of uproar about photoshop on retina and in my opinion it's been totally blown out of proportion.

Only thing thats annoyed me is when u copy an image from elsewhere its 2x the size... thats nothing an action to resize it to 50% didn't fix.

The bigger issue is the absolute fail of Creative Cloud, they promised so much and delivered nothing.. although it's still a good deal why promise things you can't deliver on.

Most web designers I know use better screens then 99% of what there users use.

Most people have really crappy displays but your not going to design on what most of your users are using.

Most likely going to be CS6 only.

Boring. We want iTunes 11 and Aperture 4.

reden · Nov 28, 2012, 09:49 AM

Just Photoshop CS6? Does Adobe have 1 developer working on all the CS products?

Um, CS6 allows you to revert back to the old version. Perhaps it's a user and not a software problem that you're having.

FlatlinerG · Nov 28, 2012, 09:53 AM

Not sure if that is a rMBP..Before you start the video, you can see what appears to be an optical drive on the right and side of the computer.

Maybe my eyes are just tricking me. Not enough coffee yet today.

Using the magic of Photoshop, I see that...yup. That's an old Pro.

The CS6 Crop tool can work like CS5.
In the Options bar at the top of the screen click the Gear icon.
Then check Use Classic Mode.
