Repost from another forum post (I was told to repost over here).

Photoshop Beta, version 25.2 (latest)
OS: Windows 11

Troubleshooting steps:
- I have uninstalled ALL adobe products, rebooted and reinstalled. Still same issue
- Reset prefrences on quit

Steps to reproduce:
1. create new project
2. Select Rectangular Marque Tool
3. Select an area on the page
4. right-click, and chose either Free Transform or Transform Selection

 

 

5. clicking and dragging on the handles does nothing, not even rotate works.

The only way to actually transform what you have selected is to change the values in the top bar, or by clicking on a vector (X:, Y:, W:, H:) and dragging.  Grabbing and dragging the box handles do nothing.

This works okay in Photoshop Beta 25.1 and the current version of regular, non-beta, Photoshop.

    What is the point of updating beta 25.2 to 25.3 when the problem persists? Beats me.

      If I resized an object, I can't move it without applying transformation. And when I move an object, I can't resize it without applying changes first.

       

      They are not working together.

        Can you comment on which tool is selected when you do this, and how you initiate the transform command? And are you holding down the control key to select and move the object after resizing it? This latter behavior can be affected by the "AutoSelect Layer" setting on the Arrow (Move) Tool.

                    for the past week or so I have randomly been unable to resize my paragraph text box after the initial creation. (while in Type mode, not trying to stretch in transform)

                      I have no clue what's happening, but as of yesterday (Nov 7, 2023) images are opening in a very distorted view. It looks like a 1:30 ratio. If I stretch the window, the image will stretch with it, but then I can't work on the image because it's off of what it thinks is the normal size.  I can't transform at all. I can't use the lasso tool.  I tried to do a screen grab to post with this, but I can't even do that because I can't adjust the screen grab in order to save it. It's 100% unusable right now after the update.

                        I am having an issue where when I select an image or object on any layer with the move tool and resize or rotate it, as soon as I let go of the mouse button, it locks it in place, so I can't make any further adjustments (rotate, move, resize, etc.) until I click the done button that pops up underneath it. The image locks in place, so I need to click the freaking done button every time I make any adjustments. I am beyond frustrated with this. How do I turn this off?!

                          Same issue here with the beta version of Photoshop. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it hasn't changed anything. Quite frustrating, as I just started paying for Photoshop this month, and it's completely disrupting the flow of my creations.
