Bug Reports

Clone Stamp Tool brush preview disappears and turns into a mouse pointer on new layers (Windows Beta) It's both version 27.8 and 27.9. App version: Photoshop Beta (Windows)OS: WindowsIssue Description:When using the Clone Stamp Tool (S) on a newly created blank layer, the brush circle preview completely disappears and changes into a mouse pointer/arrow instead. This makes it impossible to see the brush size or the area I am sampling.Steps to reproduce:Create a new blank layer above the background layer. Select the Clone Stamp Tool and set Sample to "Current & Below" or "All Layers". Move the cursor over the canvas. The brush ring disappears and turns into a mouse cursor. What I have already tried (but did not work):Checked Caps Lock (It is turned off). Changed Layers Panel Options -> Thumbnail Content to "Entire Document". Closed and reopened the Layers Panel. Reset the Clone Stamp tool settings. The issue persists only in the Beta version when working on a new layer. Please hel

Photoshop version: 27.9.0 BetaComputer: MacBook Pro M1 ProOperating System: macOS Tahoe 26.5.1aIssue:Smooth gradients and dark vignette backgrounds display with blotchy, cloud-like artifacts when Use Graphics Processoris enabled.Steps to reproduce:Open an image with a smooth dark gradient or vignette. Enable Preferences → Performance → Use Graphics Processor. Observe blotchy artifacts in the gradient. Disable Use Graphics Processor. Reopen the image.Result:The artifacts disappear immediately when GPU acceleration is disabled.Additional information:The same JPEG and TIFF display correctly in Lightroom Classic. GPU Compatibility Check reports the Apple M1 Pro as fully compatible. Changing OpenCL and GPU Compositing individually does not resolve the issue.

Photoshop Beta 27.9 - When invoking the Sky Replacement module (Edit > Sky Replacement) the brightness slider is not functional, although it moves freely, there is no visible change in the preview, nor is any brightness to the sky visible when applied.  All other slider functions within the Sky Replacement panel function normally. The same feature (sky replacement brightness slider) works normally in non-beta version of Photoshop v 27.8.

After updating to Photoshop 27.8.0, any tool that begins a canvas drag operation starts with a line from the top-left corner before following the pointer correctly. Photoshop version27.8.0 (Release)Operating systemWindows 11 25H2HardwareASUS Zenbook UX3405Intel Core Ultra 9Intel Arc 140T GPUThis appears to be related to the initial pointer-down event on the canvas rather than the individual tools themselves. Since Brush, Clone Stamp, Layer Mask painting and Lasso all exhibit the same behaviour while Photoshop 2025 works correctly on the same hardware and Windows installation, the regression appears to be in the shared canvas input handling introduced in Photoshop 27.8.0

The "Export As" window is glitching, which sometimes makes it go behind Photoshop. Additionally, its size does not stay adjusted as usual and it is always smaller. I have to resize it every time I open the program and use the "Export As" function.Another problem is that the file preview is pixelated, which does not happen in the regular version. This started in this last beta update; it didn't have this problem before. Furthermore, the image only looks good if I set the zoom to 100%. However, I cannot see the full image with good quality like before because it goes past the borders. I have to keep moving it to see the corners that do not show up. Image from Photoshop (Beta) version 27.9Previous version 27.8 is perfectly normal and trouble-free.Image from Photoshop version 27.8 

In Adobe Photoshop, the updated Canvas Size dialog fails to record relative dimensions when recording an Action. This works correctly in 27.3.1 (Release), but is broken in 27.4.0 (Beta). Steps to reproduce Open any document. Create a new Action (in the Actions panel). Click Record. Go to Image → Canvas Size… Change the units to millimeters (mm). Switch the size mode from Absolute to Relative. Enter values: Width: X mm Height: Z mm Click OK to apply. Stop recording.  Expected resultThe Action records a Canvas Size step with parameters: With Relative Width: X mm Height: Z mm Horizontal: Center Vertical: Center Extension Color: Background  Actual result (27.4.0 Beta)The Action records a Canvas Size step with: With Relative Width: (blank) Height: (blank) Horizontal: Center Vertical: Center The Width and Height fields exist in the recorded step, but their values are not saved (empty).Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.4.0 20260201.m.3398 df09e8f  arm64 (b

Hi, why can't I use removal tool on-device on Photoshop beta 27.7.0 Release (the device option is dimmed) even I meet the requirements, the GPU I currently used is Geforce RTX 5070 Ti 16GB and have enough HD space ?

I can only get Generate Image to work with the latest Firefly Fill model. Not with any of the partner models (Win 11 desktop and laptop - the former running only the most current Ps production rel. 27.6 and the latter running only the latest Ps beta - not both on the same machine). Also, after trying to use reference image with a partner model it’s impossible to delete or remove the downloaded reference image. The trash can icon in the ref image dialog box doesn’t delete or eliminate the downloaded ref image. I’ve tried with multiple different base and reference images. And, I’ve tried by writing a prompt 1st (then the Generate button grays out) or making the selection and trying to establish object only and place in the selected area then choose the partner model. Neither approach works. It only works with the latest Firefly model - no partner models and I prefer working with Gemini and having the flexibility to use prompts.

Bug courbes personnaliséesLorsque j’importe mes fichiers de courbes en .acv, je peux les utiliser de suite, en revanche dès que je ferme le logiciel et que je veux réutiliser les courbes précédemment importées, j’ai cette fenêtre qui apparaît et qui supprime mon paramètre de courbe personnalisé. Je dois donc les charger à chaque nouveau lancement du logiciel.

Finally fix the bug where, when working with smart layers and going back to the main layer that contains the others, it doesn’t remember the changes made!

in the previous version they worked, but now there is no change whatsoever when applying any of the parametric filters to an image.

Photoshop 27.6.0 Beta - using Find Distractions General.....I often get this error "288b8e.122".  It occurs when I run the General Distraction finder, and then select a particular kind, e.g. vehicles......then I used the ⌘- key to try and brush away the removal on, say, one of the vehicles leaving the rest - and it faults.  If I let all the vehicles run, it removes them all - so it has to do with trying to remove part of the selection.Start the Find Distractions | General Tool - on an image with some vehicles and other distractions When complete, turn off / select none; then just select the vehicles option Using the ⌘--key, brush away one of the vehicles and then confirm with the check-mark  Watch for the error “288b8e.122” Try again - but do not edit the generated masks…..seems to run okay  

.tif file appears washed out only in Photoshop Beta with GPU enabled. The same file displays correctly in regular Photoshop. Turning off Use Graphics Processor fixes the appearance. 

If you go into the channels, double click a channel and get this pop box for options.  The way it used to work was, when the box popped up, you could press tab and it would move focus to the next section, “Color Indicates”.   When it landed in that section, it would automatically select the first option, “Masked Area”.  Using the down arrow key, it would select the next option, then the next.  So you could move through this dialog very quickly, without using the mouse.  It worked like that for decades.  In the last 5 or 6 years, You double click the channel, you press tab, it jumps to the “Color Indicates” section, but does not automatically select the first option, it just sort of hi lights it.  At that point, you could press the spacebar to make a selection. Then you could use the up/down arrow to hi light an option, then spacebar to select it. That worked well enough that I didn’t complain.  It used to move through the options as fast as I pressed keys.  Then, it got slow.  I press

  So as you can see, it's a PG-13 relatively inoffensive image of a woman in a bunny outfit. The top worked fine, and I was able to complete the top ear, which is cool. When I tried to extend the bottom with generative fill, though, I got this warning. They're just a pair of legs wearing stockings, and I wanted to extend it. It feels like a false flag - though I could be wrong? I find myself thinking it would do the same for women in swimsuits. Figured I'd share here.

When I choose “Export as” from the file menu, or rightclick in the layers panel to export a layer, the window that pops up for exporting just says “An unknown error occurred” and I cannot select anything.  I just updated to beta 27.4.0, and this seems to be happening on every document. This also only seems to be happening if I have “Use Legacy Export As” Selected under preferences?  I need the legacy mode to be enabled considering Adobe made some weird changes to how their PNG8 exporting works at some point, I need the legacy version to preserve the alpha channel on those.It still does Quick Export to PNG correctly, even if I have both “Legacy mode” and “export as 8bit” on the Quick Export as PNG option, so it at least seems like file type that isn’t part of the issue. No idea what is though. Extra note, I saw someone with a similar problem where theirs freezes when they switch to JPG, so it might be good to note that my dialog window is defaulting to JPG momentarily before the error p

Hi, since a few days when opening Photoshop, the keys don't work properly. I can't use CTRL+N or +O for a new file or to open a File. When I open an image by mouse, I can click on the tools and rename the layers for example. But I can't use the keys to select the tools or to increase/decrease my brush. The Function keys still work so I can show/hide my layers/colors etc. Anyone an idea? Already went to Preferences/Tools and turned on/off Spring-loaded Tool Shortcuts, that didn't do the trick. Also tried booting in Save mode and clearing all preferences to defaults..  Nothing works. If I open Illustrator, the keys work.   Anyone an idea? This drives me crazy 😞

Select layer, add layer mask (ensure layer mask is selected), select gradient too and ensure options set to linear and black to transparency with black in the foreground. There is no gradient to transparency - only a vertical line as shown in the attached. In addition adjusting the points of the gradient does not update the gradient positions. It used to work fine until recent releases. 

When trying to add additional areas to the edges of an image using Generative Fill, it creates mismatched colors at the junction of the new and existing parts. It deviates slightly from the original areas, resulting in a grid-like pattern in those areas where new parts were created using the Generative Fill option, even if I fill them with 1024x1024 pixel sections.   I have already uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, but the issue persists.
