Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Fresco Gain New Collaborative Features

by

Adobe today updated its Photoshop, Illustrator, and Fresco Creative Cloud apps to introduce a new "Invite to Edit" feature that allows for asynchronous editing between collaborators on all devices including desktop, iPad, and iPhone.


Multiple collaborators are able to edit a single shared cloud document one at a time after saving .PSD or .AI files as cloud documents. Shared cloud documents can be accessed on assets.adobe.com and the Creative Cloud Desktop app.

There's also a new Preset Sync feature for Photoshop that is designed to let users sync brushes, swatches, gradients, patterns, styles, and shapes on Mac and Windows, with synced brushes coming soon to the ‌iPad‌ version of the app. There's also a new Rotate Canvas option available in Illustrator for ‌iPad‌.

Wow, this sounds like a complete disaster.
How are you going to allow collaboration when you literally can't predict what someone else is going to change?

Avoid Adobe. The only thing they provide is frustration.

How are you going to allow collaboration when you literally can't predict what someone else is going to change? This isn't a a simple excel spreadsheet (which collaboration also gets screwed up on), it's hundreds of layers with layer styles, hidden layers, different color workspaces... yikes.
Adobe is well known for all kind of disasters. Agree. To me it looks like great marketing efforts without any substance for designers.

It would be great if it were possible to download Photoshop, Illustrator, Audition, and others, from the Mac App Store, as you can do now with the new version of Lightroom. I don't like the "super app" policy of Creative Cloud, which just hangs in the background all the time, wasting RAM resources.

In this respect, the Affinity package from Serif is a real winner, because it allows you to install the version both from the official site and from MAS.
CC app has to be the biggest piece of malware going.
