Using the new Adjustment Brush Tool is regularly crashing Photpshop Beta. Crashes while painting in an adjustment and sometimes just adding a new adjustment from the Contextual Task Bar.

@SHP Photography are you talking about crashes with the Adjustment brush or something else? This thread is about crashing that was fixed for the 25.11 Ps general release version, but this is the Ps beta forum, so we need to know if you are talking about Ps beta or Ps release?  The current Ps beta is Adobe Photoshop Version: 25.12.0 20240722.m.2708 7e0e5ce arm64

 

If you are also crashing, we need to make sure you have the latest version of Ps beta and that you are submitting your email along with the crash report.

 

Thanks,

Just replied to the email notification and did not realise it was the beta as comments also referred to the production release. My comment is about the new production release that has just been released and has the issue I commented on. Yes, the crash no longer occurs. However, my main use of the adjustment Brush would be the curves option having it add a default independent curve  to each of the  RGB, Red, Blue and Green channels means that I have to apply a reset before it can be used an issue it is quicker to just add a curves adjustment layer.

I have just tried the Adjustment brush in the latest update 25.11. Unless I am doing something wrong it is unusable with the curves The default curve setting 127/190 is not just for the Luminance but also for the individual RGB colours so when I move the luminance curve the other colours stay at 190. The Levels appear to be OK the default is only the composite RGB

@IanBarber we see now what happened. This issue is fixed and will be in the upcomming release. It was hoped to have been out in June but was not, so it was added to this July release.  Please look for the next Ps beta update and let us know if that fixes this issue.

 

Sorry that we didn't catch that sooner...

I am also having the same crash ocurring. Another issue with this brush, which initially made me think it was completely broken, is when you add a curves layer youself an do some global adjutments etc. You then try to use the adjusment brush and want a curves layer it does nothing until you add a new curves adjustment brush. If you are on none curves layer then it creates a curves layer as soon as you start painting.
