Hi guys,

I'm running into a problem. I'm running Photoshop CS5 and out of the blue when I right click on any object I get a menu like the one in the picture instead of the regular menu that lets me do things like "Layer via Copy" and such. I have looked all over the place and can't find a solution to change the menu back.

I've tried resetting tools but that didn't help and I can't restart photoshop or my machine since its linked to Maya at the moment and anytime I restart like that its always an issue getting things back up and running.

Anyone have any idea how to get it back to the regular menu?

If not mistaken:

You currently have the move tool selected, the menu is different than when you use the selection tool (which displays the right click menu you seek).

edit:

This site should help you out a bit when it comes to the different right click menus photoshop offers:

Thanks! That was it. I don't ever remember seeing that menu before. I assume its new to either CS3, CS4, or CS5.
