Quick Trick: Caps Lock ISN’T ON, PSE!!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Have you ever been working away on a layout, right at the point where you’re ready to journal, and EVERYTHING<\/strong><\/span> is in upper case, no matter what you do? You check the caps lock, it’s not on. You save your layout, close out of PSE completely, go get a cold drink, come back and get started again, only to find it’s STILL<\/strong><\/span> messed up. So you reset all your Type Preferences<\/strong>, and that fails too. You’ve tried different fonts, you’ve cursed under your breath, gotten another cold drink, taken a walk around the block and are so frustrated you could scream. You’ve done a Google search, but the answer you need is either paywalled or requires a subscription. That was me the other day. You might want to bookmark this post so you can find it again…<\/p>\n

There’s no discernable reason why this happens randomly when everything had been completely normal before. But it can give you an ulcer. The fix is stunningly easy.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Activate your Text Tool<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  2. Choose your font.<\/li>\n
  3. Set your cursor where you’re planning to put text.<\/li>\n
  4. Before you put anything in your text box, click CTRL\/CMD>SHIFT>Y<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  5. Voil\u00e0!! It’s fixed!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I know!! It’s ridiculous, but it works!<\/p>\n

    See you next week when I’m back with the Designer Spotlight<\/strong><\/span>. We’ve all met this Designer<\/strong><\/span> before, so we’re going to have some fun.<\/p>\n
