My text tool for CS2 has gone on strike. When I click where i want to PUT text, the cursor turns into a small solid dark box. I type but no text appears EXCEPT it renames the layer with whatever I am typing. Layer is on top and not locked. It must be somewhere set in my preferences because it only does this on my home version; not when I'm using CS2 somewhere else. Please HELP!Have you checked Photoshops website for a solution?

ALAN <>< This wouldn't happen to be slightly rectangular, and at the start and bottom of where the text would be would it? Because if so, that HAPPENS every time you try and start to type the text in CS. It's a way of showing you where your text starts. I had a look through CS and couldn't get any other sort of black box to appear, so as far as I can tell, it would either be a program glitch (in which case I would re-install, that doesn't take too long anyway), or you cannot see the text because the text colour is White against white background, black against black background, etc.It's not the regular "text-starts-here" box . . . just a little solid square, no blinking cursor or anything else. I checked the color also . . . tried different colored text and backgrounds . . . nada. I think you're right that it's a glitch . . . . gonna keep tweaking, though, before I reinstall. Thanks for taking a look.No problems. If you need any further help though, with this or any other photoshop problem (whether technical or general) gimme a hollar, otherwise good luck.
