The one puzzling feature about the new interface is that while Adobe Bridge has the same dark gray color, Adobe Camera RAW 7 doesn't. If you prefer the older light-gray color you can go into Photoshop Preferences and select different shades of gray. Below I highlight some of Photoshop CS6's Beta version new features which will become available for sale in a few weeks.Ībove the New Photoshop CS6 Interface with darker gray color that gives it a more modern look However, if you like the lighter color of the older interface you can still return to it by selecting Edit>Prefs> Interface - and you can select darker or lighter interface colors. The other noticeable difference in Adobe Photoshop CS6 is that the interface has been made a darker charcoal gray color resembling that in Adobe Lightroom. This feature has now been fixed on the Mac and Photoshop CS6 floats freely and it no longer has a transparent background. The transparent background can be changed to the normal gray background by pressing the F key, however the inability to pull the program interface away from the top left desktop is disconcerting as I like to float open programs in separate windows so I can easily copy and paste between them. I use Adobe Photoshop on both a Mac and PC, but on the Mac Photoshop CS5 is locked to the top of the desktop window and when you open the program the background is transparent by default unlike that on the PC.


On March 22, Adobe announced a free public Beta version of Adobe Photoshop CS6 for trial.
