I am trying the version of PhotoshopCS and really like it so far over Paintshop Pro8, mainly for the brushes and a few of the other features. What I cannot find anywhere is a Command History to reverse actions. The StepBack option seems to only undo a few steps,whereas sometimes I would like to go back even further.Short of closing off the image and starting over again. Things like this are what makes the difference whether I put out around $1000 for this program.

Please bare in mind i'm running vers7 and not CS (yet...) but look to see if you have the palette turned on (viewable)

Look for it under the VIEW menu and see if there is a check mark on HISTORY - ACTIONS - TOOL PRESETS, if not select one of the group.

you should then see the palette on the right-hand side of your screen. this lets you move down your list of steps. you can set how deep you want your "history" to go in the "preferences", just remember, the more it needs to remember, the more RAM it needs...

Looks good.I never would have looked there for ages. Too bad you cannot do Image capture like PSP8 can.One button camera to do screenshots.

Photoshoop (by default remen=bers 20 history states(you can increase but yo will use more memory). You can take 'snapshots' (button @ bottom of history palette) so you don't have to rely soley on the histry state.
