Within Photoshop(CS5extended) there's an option to view Styles I have some original Shapes I have created and also downloaded not too many but I would like to have them added to the window drop-down menu at top similar to styles. Is this even possible, for the life of me I can't find a way to do it
 
Should be able to load them through the shapes pre-set manager Dad. If I have understood you question correctly that is..
 
I can load no problem but I would like to have a window for viewing, similar to styles I'm not sure there is way
 
Have a look at this:

http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/configurator/

Adobe® Configurator is a utility that enables the easy creation of panels (palettes) for use in Photoshop® CS5.x/CS6 and InDesign® CS5.x/CS6. Configurator makes it easy to drag and drop tools, menu items, scripts, actions, and other objects into a panel design, then export the results for use in Photoshop or InDesign.

May be the answer you're looking for Pops :thumbsup:
 
In CS5 or any of the Photoshop versions, in the top menu bar the word windows the drop-down there is an option to have your styles displayed in a separate window I like that, it would be handy to have shapes displayed in a separate window as well I tried that Adobe configurator but I cannot see a way to create a window I would want
 
in order to use that ap (link) I need to convert the .csh files to .png but I need a .csh file reader first bridge will not open them, something funky going on
 
I don't think I'm explaining myself for very well, I know how to load shapes to Photoshop what I need to do or want to do is view my .CSH files as a picture similar to the way a .asl file is displayed from the Menu bar drop down (Window)....Styles
 
We're both turning into old pops... lol....

View shapes..... In Menu....

You mean like this?

My Snowflake custom shape in CS's Custom Shape folder. You have to load it into the Custom shape picker.

Then again, I'm on CS4 extended .....
 
see how if you check off styles in window drop down it creates a window of your styles collection,Why not be able to get a window like that for shapes instead of going back and forth into shapes to see them?View attachment 24980
 
I would think styles would be much more complicated to be able to display on a separate window like that......... I guess I'm missing something
 
In other words you dont know how to create it's own window similar to styles?Or if it's possible?
