Earlier today I was working on the sky of a photo when all of a sudden, my PSE 10 Editor workspace turned sky blue! I must have touched something when I was using my Bamboo tablet. Now I can't get it back to gray. When I first open it, it is gray, but as soon as I open a photo, either directly from a file or from Organizer, the background turns blue! I tried shutting PSE down and restrated my computer. That didn't help. Any suggestions?

I have PSE7 (not as my main scrapping program, though), and I can't figure out how to change the color on that. I'm sure someone will be along to help you!

Actually, I didn't think it was possible to change it! But I sure did!

Have you tried right clicking on the workspace. Not your layout or photo but the bit that should be grey. In PSE10 on Windows 7 , that's how you can change the colour of your workspace.

I just did a google search and the only help I found was like Valerie shared but you do need to have a photo opened on your workspace. Right click somewhere on the surround area and you should be able to change it.

Thanks to both Valerie and Anne-Marie! How easy was that!! Worked perfectly! I must have accidentally right clicked on it when I was using the tablet. Thanks again.

I know I've had this happen to me before but I couldn't for the life of me remember how to correct it! I'm glad that Valerie and Anne-Marie were able to help.

I tried to right click on my background, but I didn't have a photo open. Glad you got it fixed! I knew someone here would have the answer!
