PS History list

[Jeff Canes]

I thought that PS saved the change history so you could open & close a file without losing the history, if you used their “psd” format. I am using PS-CS, when I make changes it not doing this. And I wrong about my thinking or is there setting in need of setting.

No, once you close and reopen the file the history list is lost. If it is possible to keep the history between sessions it's not the default behaviour. I took a quick look in the preferences and didn't see anything that would affect it. Come to think of it, if the history list was saved then the previous states would have to be saved as well, that could make for a VERY large file.

It doesn't save history states. You can always make snapshots as you go, which will save.
