Adobe® Photoshop® CS4 software provides improved access to its unrivaled power through a more intuitive user experience, greater editing freedom, and significant productivity enhancements.
Adobe’s new Photoshop CS4 packs a ton of fresh features and an updated interface, which alone make it a worthy upgrade for existing users.
Of course, the added under-the-hood elements aren’t the only updates in Photoshop CS4. The most gee-whiz update is the new context-sensitive scaling, which allows you to resize pictures while retaining foreground objects’ scale. Usually when you rescale an image, all elements in the image resize proportionally–and in the process, some elements warp or squash when they shouldn’t. In the example I’ve provided (see the images in the gallery above), resizing with the traditional method would have made the people in the foreground unrealistically skinny; with context-aware scaling, the vinyl character in the back shrank, but the people remained the same size. The feature doesn’t always work perfectly–I found that expanding the canvas size caused tiling of the background elements–but it’s still an awesome tool to have.
