Bug Reports

I am trying to render a video but it keeps crashing. My video doesn’t have that many layers and the main effect I’m using is Liquify. I have the latest version of the software and my computer isn’t even 6months old. What could it be, please help?

Hi, artifacts (dark edges) are shown on grouped layers if a clipping layer is applied. It's visible even if the clipping layer is hidden.See attached PSDhttps://www.dropbox.com/s/idz774k9p191c0j/artifacts.psd?dl=0Roman

When saving a file for web you cannot use shortcuts in the textfield for the file name, e.g. if you want to paste (cmd+V) or select all (cmd+A) it doesn't work, only the "Edit" button in the menu is blinking once.

The Problem:Photoshop historically renders transparent differently with and without background, It is usually stronger than it should, that makes working with translucent color harder than it should.Workaround:So in my past experience, I have a workaround, that is toggle color setting's "Desaturate Monitor Color" by 0%, and turn off checkered background. That will make it's background composite back to normal, or the way it should represent across all softwares.New Issue:But then CC 2019 this method will cause it to glitch out. Since it wasn't able to render transparency, and result a blocky 1 bit blocks. Reverting to Legacy Composite engine doesn't help either. I even tried disable GPU acceleration, still no avail.I hope the included screenshot could explain better. Tell me if I need also include other image software's result like Preview, Xee, or ClipStudio Paint. This is very photoshop specific issue since decades ago, and that workaround is broken now.

I have a javascript-program that worked in 2014 for adding text given in a text file to images as captions. Today I wanted to reuse it with Photoshop 21.1.1 and it ran almost succesfully. Only setting the indent for the created Text Item with the "firstLineIndent"-property is not taken; it is always 0, but  no errors are shown.  textItemRef.firstLineIndent = 32; ...does not change that setting to 32 and does not throw an error.JJMack thankfully tested the following script: // Create Image with 1382 x 787 Pixel<br>app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS; app.documents.add(1382, 787, 300, "Image Caption", NewDocumentMode.RGB); createText("Caption", "Calibri", 8.0, 0, 0, 0, "Description Text", 5, 179, 324, 14, Justification.LEFT, 32, 0);function createText(lname, fface, size, colR, colG, colB, content, tX, tY, wdth, hght, just, indent, rot) { // Add a new layer in the new document<br> var artLayerRef = app.activeDocument.artLayers.add();<br> artLaye

Photoshop 21.1.1 (latest), Windows 10I have the Photoshop status bar set to show the current image pixel dimensions. Usually (though not always) when I resize the image (Image -> Image Size), the status bar display does not change - it displays the pre-resize dimensions. The image is resized, and going into the Image Size dialog shows the correct size, as does the full display when the status bar is clicked.In the above image the original dimensions were 3028 px x 2260 px, resized to 2500 px x 1866 px. Clearly the status bar is not getting updated. This behavior started after a recent update.Such strange bugs Photoshop has...David

When importing a PDF with images, Photoshop CS6 adds faint outlines to the PDF image segments in the file. Prior versions of Photoshop render the PDF correctly. See the attached image for an example.

Ok, after you resolved the problem with stamp-preview there is a new "kind-of-preview-bug".Just make an adjustment-layer, ie. a curve. Normally if you click on the symbol of the curve-layer you see the curve in the properties panel and if you click on the corresponding mask of the curve layer you see the mask-properties in the properties panel. This automatic switching doesn't work anymore. You have to click on the corresponding little symbols in the properties panel on the top now or if you have two layers with masks, you can click on the second layer-mask to get the mask-propertiesI have tested several preferences according to it, ie. Workspace - auto show/hide panels, but this doesn't help.

Here's another bug that Adobe introduced in this mess of an updatehttps://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop/21-1-0-transform-tool-alt-clic-to-set-axis-point/td-p/10939...Rolled back to 21.0.3 and all is fine again. did Adobe actually test this update before releasing it

Yesterday I installed the most recent version of macOS Catalina (10.15.3), I was using the 10.15.2 I guess (or the previous of the one I installed). Since yesterday I can't open Photoshop 2020. As soon as I click on the icon the window of "unexpected quit" appears as you can see in the image (It's in Italian). I've tried to uninstall and install again the app and tried to install an old version of Photoshop (I'm currently using the 21.1) but nothing changes. Have anyone experienced the same? How do I solve this huge problem? I wanted to run the app through the terminal, maybe that could help, but I don't know how to.

When I select the keys in the timeline in one layer, the keys in the layer with which I worked before are highlighted to.I have to cancel selection, select keys again and the keys on another layer do not selected this time - this EXTREMELY slows down the work because i must to do this all the time! - (select- cancel selection - select againSometimes accidentally deleting or moving the keys where i didn't want it and having to go back many steps to correct the errori think - this is not a feature - this is bug!

In the latest version of Photoshop 21.0.2 and in 21.01 the clone tool and the healing brush is not working as expected. It will copy from one spot to another on the same image, but if two image files are used it is broken. Here is what I found. it is not calculating the copy space properly, If the source and target areas have the same dimensions, then it copies as it should, However as the size of the target area increases, the amount copied decreases, until it does not copy at all. I experimented like this: the source file was 500 X 500 pixels, I copied on to a target area of the same size, perfect. then I tried a target area of 1000 by 1000 and only part of the image would show, it was oddly clipped. then: 1500 by 1500 target area, even less. If I tried to copy a 500-pixel detail from a source image to a large target file that was 2550 pixels by 3300 pixels, nothing would copy.  The workaround: Make a blank page the same size as your target area, drag the small source file onto

In the 'Select and Mask' workspace in Photoshop CC2019, the keyboard shortcuts for switching tools/adjusting brush size (eg 'z' to switch to zoom tool, '['&']' to adjust brush) appear to no longer work. This is actually quite frustrating, as habitually tapping a key to change a tool does nothing, and the wrong tool then often ends up being applied.

Good morning! Every time I try to open a new file, the window that appears is empty, just grey, without any possibility to choose a format or something else

As mentioned here, Paste in place appears not to be working correctly in Photoshop 21.0.2 (nor in 21.0.1, or 21.0.0).Here is the issue: A path is created that comes off of the canvas Right click and select Make selection... so that the marching ants run off the canvas Using the shortcut (cmd+shift+v) or selecting Edit > Paste Special > Paste in place, the new copied element shifts up by around 30px and is not pasted in place. If the path doesn't run off the canvas Paste in place appears to work correctly.Photoshop 20.0.8 was the last version to work correctly, so I've rolled back.Best,Tom

Since the latest update (21.1) my paths are not behaving properly. No popup appears when right-clicking in the 'Paths' window (so I can't access 'make selection, 'fill path' etc.), and when moving a path within the window it creates visual ghosting overlay images of said paths, which stay visible even when navigating to other tabs with the menu.

Since opening my Photoshop 21.1 this morning, it crashes EVERY time I try to use it. When I launched the program, it ran through a screen "validating" photoshop, which I assume means there was another update. I've since uninstalled (twice, including preferences), restarted, and relaunched countless times. Nothing has fixed the issue. It seems to crash quickest with any files containing fonts. Basic JPG images hold on longer before the crash. It's a good thing I don't have a deadline due for fixing my files...

I use an action for  solid colour fill. When I perform the action the colour box disappears. Im on an iMac 27" 5k  

After updating to PS 2020 the "create new" window has been broken. I have both a MacBook Pro 2018 and a fully updated Windows stationery PC with Photoshop 2020 and I have this issue on both. I've tried to reinstall, turn my PC on and off, reset preferences, and nothing works. I know you can just use the legacy interface mode, but I would like to still see this issue be fixed.   I really hope this will be fixed, because until it is I don't really see myself using PS that much, which is annoying...

Reproduce: Open the color panel window, choose Grayscale ramp and set it to Web safe (6 value split), the areas don't match their fields of sampling / are offset.It's most offset to the left, getting increasingly correct going right.Got gateway error when trying to upload gif, but here is a demonstration:https://i.postimg.cc/qv725nC8/PS-bars.gifIt gets most obvious sliding across them all, not knowing about it and just clicking to sample like most common use case will have the user run a ~50% risk of getting the wrong value.(This is in the latest PS CC Windows release, but it was the same in prior releases afaik)

I came across this problem after updates to Photoshop 21.0.3 and  21.1.In Preferences, Interface, Presentation, UI Font Size had been reset to default. I noticed this straight away after the last two updates, because when opening Photoshop after updating, the Font Size was Tiny and it hit my eyes straight away.Once I've reset the Font Size to my liking, there's no problem with the font size again when opening Photoshop. As mentioned, this only ever happened after the last two updates. The first time, well I thought it was a glitch but having it happen a second time, makes me wonder. I did mention it in passing after the last update here: https://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/photoshop-21-0-3-is-now-availableCurious really, as the update only affected the UI Font Size and no other preferences.I have the latest Windows OS and latest drivers.Cheers

Photoshop 20.0.5: Recording an action of filling a path or making a selection from a path, didn't seem to record the settings. Steps to reproduce: 1. Select the Rectangle Tool and set the option to paths in the tool options bar. 2. Draw out a rectangle. 3. Save the workpath in the paths panel by double clicking on the path thumbnail in the paths panel. 4. Make a new action and hit the record button. 5. Try using the Fill Path (from the flyout menu in the paths panel) with dialog and set to whatever option you want.    (i used 50% Gray in my test) 6. Try using the Make Selection with dialog from the flyout menu in the paths panel.  Neither action seems to record the parameters (settings).Playing back the action uses whatever the last settings were. I expected the settings to be recorded as photoshop 7 does (second action in the screenshot below)Photoshop CC 20.0.5 is the first action shown.

Thanks.Another VERY SERIOUS problem with both Actions and Scripts.The problem with SaveAs when a folder is specified as the destination to save.https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop/problem-with-the-save-as-function-when-used-in-an-action-si...Update 21.1 needs to either be revoked or urgently made a fix.Note: This conversation was created from a reply on: Photoshop 21.1: Cloning doc to doc gives unexpected results.

We are having issues with our students using Photoshop 2018. When they launch Photoshop as non admins they receive the  following error message on launch of the software and exporting the document."There is a problem with Generator. Please quit Photoshop and try again. If the problem persists remove any third-party plugins or try reinstalling Photoshop"I have an ongoing call logged with Adobe support earlier this month and they are still investigating this. I've also tried the latest June version today without any luck.If I install the archived Photoshop 2017 the students have no issues using the software and exporting their work. We've paid for the latest version so ideally want this working.I thought I would post on here to see if anyone else is having this issue or recommend a fix

Not only that the new 2017 "New Document"-Dialog has a poor GUI-performance (Windowsx64, 64GB ram, gtx1060, ssd) because of all the unnecessaray cloud-stuff it really slow downs my workflow because of this:It's not possible to confirm the dialog via "Enter". So STRG+N for a new document and then "Enter"-Key doesnt work any more.Could you please fix that? I went back to the old dialog since it works there - also its super fast and slick.
