Why programmers decide how I want to work with a computer is beyond me. This smacks of Apple "Do it my way!".<br><br>If these tools work for you great but why remove options to work in other ways.

The ability to interact with application as a Live Preview is not possible, you will need to click it and use the application. Hi gokul,

I should note, the version of Adobe Photoshop I used in this article is version CS3. Only Adobe Photoshop CS4 includes a 64 bit release which probably might have some architectural differences, while the 32 bit version might not support some contextual menu changes in that release. In conclusion, Photoshop CS4 is not a fully supported product under Windows 7, since it was released a year before Windows 7. I should also note, the architecture of Windows 7 I was using when I took those screenshots was Windows 7 32 bit. Third party application support right now for WIndows 7 through Jump List is a bit inconsistent and sporadic. Hi Sandy,
