X6 Ultimate and Windows 10

Post by caspia1 »

I have been using X6 with Windows 7 (32bit), then 8.1 (64bit). Everything worked well.
I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and now find that the resizing tool function (on the image) no longer works. Previously I was able to select which tool, click on the size box and this triggered the ability to resize the tool on the actual image by using the mouse scroll wheel.
Is there a way i can get this feature back, please?

Clearly Corel does not give a damn about giving me a solution. Pity.

In Windows 10, you have the option to run programs as though it were a prior version.

Right click on the PSP X6 desktop icon > Properties > Compatibility > Compatibility Mode > Check box Run this program in compatibility mode for: > Windows 7 (or whatever). Apply and Okay. I'd reboot and try it. Could be with your mouse driver too since Windows 10 changed some of those drivers.

Might work - maybe.

You can also resize some tools by holding down the Alt key and moving the mouse cursor up to make the tool cursor smaller and down to make it larger. Much more efficient for large changes in size then scrolling.
