Vector Path Tools

The Vector Path tools have been updated to improve the dragging of vector curves. You can also turn paths into dash and dotted lines and apply gradients to them!

Transform Tool

Now you can resize and transform objects with better quality! The new interpolation options let you resize objects using Nearest Neighbor, Bilinear, Bicubic, Bicubic Smoother, Bicubic Sharper, or the new Bicubic Automatic mode which picks the best method for you. It also fixes the 90° bug.

Image Adjustments


Camera RAW

Camera RAW 6 has been upgraded to Camera RAW 7 which is already available in Lightroom 4. The new editing process makes retouching photos more intuitive and allows more room for recovery.

The new Bicubic Automatic option automatically picks the best interpolation mode for you.


Layer Styles


Gradient Overlay

A new option to dither your gradient is available. Note that this option is already present with the other Gradient tools in CS5 – it seems like Adobe forgot about to add it to layer styles.

Stroke

If you create gradient strokes, you can also enable this dither option.


Palettes


Layers Palette

The Layers palette has been revamped to make it easier to find layers and apply layer properties to multiple layers at once. The new filtering option lets you find layers by kind, name, effect, mode, attribute, or color. You can also apply blending modes, opacity, locking, and color label to multiple layers at once. The bugs which didn’t allow you to set the layers opacity to 0 or duplicate multiple layers using its hotkeys has been fixed. Shape layer attributes can be copied/pasted just like layer styles.
