It's been two years since
Adobe unveiled a new version of
Photoshop,
so it shouldn't come as a surprise that the company's engineers have
been toiling away behind the scenes on a major update. The outfit's
clearly ready to start showing off the fruits of its labor, though, as
it just unveiled the beta version of CS6. All told, the outfit's added
65 user-feedback-inspired features, including a new crop tool, expanded
video editing options, auto recovery and the ability to search for
specific layers. Fans of the dotted lines in Illustrator now get the
same vector tools in Photoshop. Additionally, every slider for the
Camera Raw 7.0 plug-in (exposure, contrast, etc.) has a freshly tweaked
algorithm. And for anyone who's ever looked on helplessly as Photoshop
locked itself up during a long file save, projects can now save in the
background while you work on other things. Looking for more info? A
brief rundown of the beta and a full list of new features awaits just
past the break.
Adobe's also made some refinements to existing features. The liquify
tool, for instance, now has a larger maximum brush size, and works in
real time so you can see the effect in real time. Adobe's also added two
features to complement Content-Aware Fill, which was first introduced
with CS5. These include one for moving objects to different part of the
image, and one for patching up a spot with content taken from another
part of the picture.
With change comes some potential readjusting, though. In addition to
adding more functionality, Adobe's overhauled the UI so that it has a
dark background by default (this is customizable, to an extent) with a
generally cleaner smattering of icons and menus. Even the setup process
has been overhauled: now, users must sign in with an Adobe ID before
installing the software. Though there are contingencies for people
without an internet connection, the idea is that people will enjoy more
efficient support if they don't have to fumble around for a long-lost
serial number.
There's one thing that hasn't changed and that's pricing. When this goes
on sale it'll cost $699 as a standalone product, and $999 for the
extended version. For now, though, you can download the free beta (it's
only available as an English- and Japanese-language program for now). If
you only have two minutes, we've also got the full PR after the break,
along with an official list of new features and tweaks.
