Photoshop: cs6 crop problem can't create preset in millimeter

[mantra]

Hi
i have a problem with cs6 crop tool

well i want to create an a4 210 x 297 mm 8.3 x 11.7 preset

well i add 210 on the width and 297 height

now the problem , on the cs3 i was used to clickin width/heught space , right mouse click and set millimeter and save the preset

on the cs6 the right click doesn't call a pop up menu where i can select pixel, incs,cm,mm...

how can i do it?

ps
1) there is not more the ability to click ctrl +left mouse to add a point in the curve and there is not a short cut to close the adjustament curve window

2) is there a resource with all the print size used in europe?


thanks
cheers

Did you set the General Prefereces>Units to Pixels/Cm from Pixels/Inch?

You can also type next to the value (210) cm or in or mm directly in the field, hit tab, it should accept that.

If you are using a Curves Adj layer, you select the icon with the finger pointing upward and everywhere on the image that you mouse click, you will set a point on the curve. You can still call up the old conventional adj curve command by typing Ctrl+M and it works the old way BUT you will not have an adjustment layer.

If you enter "mm" (no quotes) after any number it will be entered as millimeters. You can also click the option dropdown to the left of the numeric entry field (it says "unconstrained" in your example image above) and select Size & Resolution.

On mine if I enter "mm" it crops in millimeters. If I enter "cm" it crops in centimeters. "in" will crop in inches. You have to hit the enter key after typing the "mm".
