What I want from photoshop cs6

Adobe seems to like adding in features to attract those who don’t really need the full power and toolkit of Photoshop. Here are some of my suggestions from someone who has the program open all day.

  1. Dynamically fed text areas – txt files, docs, web links, etc!
  2. Text areas with floating functions like inDesign, so I can format my text with shapes, etc.
  3. Dynamically expanding shapes, so I can create responsive design templates, and export right from Photoshop to html
  4. Improved content aware and fill, bring back the pattern maker
  5. Built in paragraph controls, so I can create columns and other text effects
  6. Column templates, grid structures hardcoded
  7. These are what I can think of off the top of my head. As you can tell, I have many gripes with the way text is handled in Photoshop!

    How about a checkbox that automatically fills a text box with Ipsum placeholder text as you draw the box.

    Do you know of an alternative PatternMaker plugin? The only one I can find, is the version compatible with only CS5.
