Photoshop: Can't see document tabs to switch images after opening 3 images from the Finder

David, i just found out how to send this ..Note no tool line when selecting windows 'tile horizontally..I had 3 pictures selected. Thank you. please advise necessary steps...

Hi Richard,

When you say that you had three pictures selected, what are you referring to?  Tile Horizontal only works on those documents that are actually open in Photoshop.  In this example, it looks like you just have a single document open.

Also, what are you referring to when you say "no tool line"?  Are you referring to the tabbed names of the files open?  If you click Window, what do you see after Options and Tools at the bottom of the menu?  If you have three documents open, you should see the names of each of the documents there.

Thanks,
David

David, I selected 3 pictures from desktop and clicked on these highlighted images, but only the one shows up, if I delete that image the next one comes up,. No names show up, as that bar where they are supposed to be is not there ..thank you. Dick

David, thats my problem,..I don't see the 3 images opening in PS after selecting them. and double clicking ALL  3 SHOULD COME UP IN PS. with their names in the top tool bar, but don't .I can press 'windows, or arrange etc...but here is only one photo, so I can't perform any tile feature   Thank You DICK

Howdy Dick,

It sounds like you have your workspace in another state, potentially full screen with all windows floating.  I would suggest that you press F a couple of times to toggle the display mode.  Does the Title Bar with the three files appear now?  In any event, if you click Window, you should see all three of your documents listed at the bottom of that menu.  And, from that menu, you can also click Arrange > and either Tile command to re-display the open files.

Thanks,
David

Pressing F did it for me!

Hi Dick,

As Jeff mentioned, the F command toggles between three states.  I would recommend you get in Standard Screen mode -- the one AFTER when you get a dark screen.  If you can only see one document when the Title Bar is visible, then that's all you have open.  As I mentioned before, you can verify this by clicking Window and seeing what files are open at the bottom of that menu.

Thanks,
David

Jeffrey my "Open Documents as tabs" was disabled.. .."Enable Floating Document Window Document" was checked , so I unchecked it and there was not change.Thank you for your suggestion Dick

If it is greyed out, you don't have a document open.

Thank you, that was great.. I live & learn. BUT with Safari - Finder popping up . I have no idea They never did that before.. Preview , was the culprit in the past always popping up.. It was ok with printing, but suddenly that's gone ( no big deal) and the lack of ability to have2 or more photos active on the PS screen.. Is a nuisance. I have tried all the suggestions.. w/o success. . Thank you for your time and willingness. Before PS CC I. did not have these problems...Dick

I spoke too soon...I reopened PS, with view in STANDARD SCREEN MODE, loaded 2 images , they appeared. With the file name panel on top. I'm very thankful for your assistance.. I'm sure it will continue to work.. Thank you. Again. Dick
