Its Not Letting Me Use Matting On Photoshop

Let s hope they can fix this without breaking the ability to use smoothing on the options bar and that it also is the fix to the problem with the healing brushes.

Its not letting me use matting on photoshop.

I have several text layers in my photoshop file but when i double click one of them to edit it it gives me the layer options window instead of the type tool window in which you can edit your text. I m trying to change the stroke settings so that brush strokes are smoothed out as im drawing but the option won t show up in the bar no matter what i do. When i copy the text layers to my other photoshop file the same thing happens. If i left out anything please let me know.

Pls i need any help view all replies. I ve reset both the tool settings and workspace settings. I am using high sierra version 10 13 and i m trying to download photoshop cc 2018 trial but it s not downloading the download always stops at 8 and i don t know why. To get to the image size command i ll go up to the edit menu in the menu bar along the top of the screen and choose image size.

The monitor has been color corrected using xrite i1. My creative cloud software says my free trial has expired but i have a paid subscription and money was taken out of my account so i know it is paid. I ve looked through the brush and brush presets menu tabs but nothing there either. I ll try resizing it the way i would normally resize an image and that s by using photoshop s image size command.

Funny thing is that my other text layers are just fine. Keep in mind that prints using photoshop are coming out relatively close to my monitor display and look good.
