Photoshop CS6 and Touch
polycounter lvl 18
Greetings!
I'm looking for a way to make Photoshop CS6 actually usable when using a touch enabled device like my new Wacom Cintiq 24HD Touch or my Microsoft Surface PRO.
Photoshop CS6 sports a ridiculous small interface when working on both devices which makes a pain to use when using Touch ( especially the Surface PRO ) so I yeah, does anyone know a way to increase the size of the Toolbars or knows of an interface Plugin that would allow you to add "Touch Buttons" for common, self defined, commands?
Something like what NKS5 ( http://nkurence.com/blog/ ) does but more Touch oriented would be awesome!

Gave it a quick try on my Surface PRO as it's the more troubling of the 2 Screens and while not perfect it was quite a help - Took me a while to figure out how to get into the Application specific Configs.
I wished though it would offer the option to change the scaling, still kind of small on the Surface Screen but I guess everything helps - Definitely gonna keep following the development of that tool.
Once again, thanks a lot!
Glad it helped, that was the whole point of that tool in the first place

I might consider your suggestion contacting him.

Both Docks would be perfect IF they would work on my Hardware ;(
At least I got an idea what to look out for in the future
Meanwhile I did find a Surface PRO version of one of these Toolbars but a) it had like 6-7 Buttons of which none were of use to me and b) the accompanying Disable Touch, Pen and whatever else might control your hardware feature turned my Surface into a 999.- Paperweight thus forcing me to reset my Surface PRO - WTF
Luckily I learned my lesson and kept a Restore Medium at hand to rescue the day in just about 15min - All hail the badly written AHK Scripts >_>
Ah well... At least I got some ideas what to look out for in the future and maybe my rant on the Adobe NAV for Photoshop YouTube Video will make them think about adding it as a native feature integrated directly into Photoshop CS6.

Can't believe he goes all like: "One of the top requests we get... eh... for the Photoshop Team, is the ability to customize your Toolbar" and then presents a solution that pretty much requires another PC and a Wireless connection.
/facepalm
Just gave it a quick hour to test some ideas and boy this rocks.
Tomorrow I'm going to be a very happy Cintiq and Surface PRO Photoshop user.
Thanks-A-Lot!
