Bug Reports

Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a photoshop file with a text layer 2. Set the text to black (0,0,0) 2. Create a script to access the text layer like so: layer.textItem.color Results: Error 8800: General Photoshop error occurred Expected Results: The property returns a SolidColor object with RBG set to (0,0,0) NOTE: This only occurs if the text is completely black. If it's any other color, it works as desired.

Since CTRL-F is now used to find something, the shortcut to apply the last filter is now CTRL-ALT-F. That means we no longer have a shortcut to open the last used filter dialog box so we can alter the settings. Why on god's green earth would Adobe change that? Do they really think we always apply the exact same settings every time we need to apply a filter? This was a shortcut I used dozens of times a day, and now I have to manually select the filter every damned time I need to apply it. Come on Adobe, this is just plain stupid.

I just recently noticed that if I'm working on a file, and say I have an active Text selection, and then I go and try to open a new document or an existing file, I cannot; the options are muted, but the Open Recent File option is not, however choosing an item from that list does nothing. Also while you have an active text selection, you cannot drag and drop (alternative way of opening an existing file) into the App's work area, even the edges.I'm using PS CC with an active subscription.

The brush preview in PS 2018 has changed so now it shows a dragged preview of the brush. I have many a custom brush that are meant to be singularly clicked, not dragged, like stencils. I cannot see which brushes are which anymore, because of this new preview and cannot find a way to change it back. PLEASE FIX THIS WITH AN UPDATE ADOBE, IT WAS FINE THE WAY IT WAS.As you can see, there is NO WAY for me to tell which brush I am using.The only work around is to go into the detailed brush settings but this is hassle for me when I need to quickly choose a brush. 

the new "Lock Workspace" feature isn't working. Even when activated, I can move or resize tool panels.Mac Pro (late 2013)OSX 10.12.6

-PS cc2015.1 (dutch version) can't see new start screen, check box is on. -Color lookup few filters turn image black (bleach bypass and a few other) I work with new iMac and El Capitan, color lookup works normal with older mac and Yosemite.

The new Windows 10 update (I installed on the 20/11/2017) has broken the right click function on the wacom pen in Photoshop. When you right click on the pen to bring up the brushes the program uses the currently selected tool as well. All tools seem to have this bug and it can be seen in the history drop down effecting the canvas. This break the workflow completely as every time I change a brush an unwanted tool effect happens (unwanted brush stroke, unwanted move, unwanted marquee selection)I have updated to all the latest wacom drivers and the latest photoshop. I can reproduce this using a Wacom Cintiq 21UX and a Wacom Cintiq 22HD. I have also turned off all the known horrific windows 10 pen ink and flick issues.Is there any work around or fix for this?Damian

Hi,My Photoshop keeps constantly crashing whenever I try to create a Normal Map from Diffuse in the 3D mode. So far I have found out that the crashing occurs when working with any higher resolution images. I tried several different sizes of the same exact picture, and the crashing didn't occur with 1024x1024 px picture, but did happen when the size was 2048x2048 px.I have saved the crash report logs, if they can be used to fix this issue.

Updated to CC2019 from well running 2018.  First issue was with NEW dialoque .. disabled by setting to OLD dialog.  Bridge refused to reduce filesize with Image Processor (set to 1200x1200).. totally removed AND did Adobe-clean-util .. reinstalled both Bridge and Photoshop...

Hi, I am running Adobe Photoshop cc 2018 in Windows 10. When I run Photoshop it says "Could not load default face expression presets because an unexpected end of file was encountered". Also another error like "Could not load default style because an unexpected end of file was encountered". But Photoshop open normally with no error. And I quit Photoshop and again run there is no such error message. It happens when I first run Photoshop. So is the problem still remaining with face expression, style, and brushes, or not. So, please reply.

Since updating to Photoshop CC 2015.5, I have encountered many challenges in having text appear properly for me. Characters in a text layer will disappear and reappear on a whim and there's nothing that I've been able to troubleshoot that has helped.Testing Notes: Bounding box is not an issue, as this happens as this will happen no only the LAST characters, but the FIRST characters of a text layer. Usually if the bounding box is not big enough, the whole word will disappear, not just one or two characters.The example below is created as Point Text, not a Paragraph Text, so there aren't any bounding boxes. This problem seems to affect capital letters especially, as changing it to lowercase works just fine (but see #4 below when it gets wacky again).   This problem doesn't appear to discriminate between fonts. The screenshots above is your plain ol' Helvetica. Fonts that never had an issue in a past version of PS now have this issue. Some don't.When I hit the down arrow on the curr

In PS 2019 with a right-click on a layer and choose "duplicate layer", "new document" you get a new document with a background layer not the original layer. Also if you duplicate a pattern-layer, you just get a new document with an empty white background layer. In former version you just got an identically layer in an new document. Can't imagine that should be a feature. I think it's a bug.

I just followed a video about this filter (photoshop CC 2018) + dynamic object. https://youtu.be/8Gfx8JPpJrA  and if the filter applied on a dynamic object, closes correctly, while in vcc2019, it does not close correctly !!!IfI use this filter in Photoshop CC 2018 (frenf version on macOS 10.14, when I close the filter interface, it automatically creates a 3D layer above the layer of the dynamic object used to launch the filter!Je viens de suivre une vidéo parlant de ce filtre (photoshop CC 2018) + objet dynamique. https://youtu.be/8Gfx8JPpJrA Si j'utilise ce filtre dans Photoshop CC 2018 (frenf version sur macOS 10.14 , lorsque je ferme l'interface du filtre, il se crée automatiquement un calque 3D au-dessus du calque de l'objet dynamique ayant servi pour lancer le filtre !I specify, I reset the pref. from PhotoshopSo there must be a problem in PhotoshopThere are also sometimes craxh when you want to close the filter by OK ????Je précise, j'ai réinitialisé les préf. de PhotoshopIl

When working on a layer with the mask disabled, using Undo will Enable the mask.Steps to reproduce: Open File Add Layer Mask Invert Layer Mask Disable Layer Mask "\" to turn on mask highlight (blue) Paint (3 strokes with white) Undo (Using Ctr Z)  The mask is Enabled when I "Undo", but it shouldn't. The mask should remained Disabled.This happens regardless of what tool you're currently using and also when selecting Undo in the Edit menu. It is occurring on both Windows and Mac computers. "Enable/Disable Layer Mask" does not have a keyboard shortcut assigned to it. This does not happen in previous versions of Photoshop (the mask remains disabled).

Adobe Photoshop Version: 20.0.1 20181029.r.41 2018/010/29: 1197484  x64I have PSD with frame animation and the at least one layers group, I can't use the "Paste frames" command with "Paste over selection" option. When I try to run such a command, I get the error "Could not complete the command because of a program error".After removing the layer group (with "Ungroup layers" command, thus the group's content is not deleted), the "Paste over selection" starts to work fine.Steps to reproduce: create new PSD  create frame animation create the new frame (there should be 2 frames now) create new group and create new layer inside this group in the Timeline panel under the "hamburger" button select "Copy frame" Again in the Timeline panel under the "hamburger" button select "Paste frame..." Select "Paste Over Selection" option and press Ok. The error will be showed.

After the Photoshop CC 2018 update, I am getting "Could not apply the workspace because of a program error" after clicking "select and mask" button. Before update, it worked perfectly. Have somebody same problem?

With every new version Photoshop get a new bug for liquify and smart objects.This time when you editing and save/update smart object witch have mask it mishandles the smart liquify effect. So you have to disable the mask before editing it.Same thing happens if you enter to edit liquify. You have to disable the mask, otherwise its distorted.

I often run dust and scratches as a smart filter and fill the mask with black and just bring it back where needed.  Since updating to 2019, if I save a file, then re-open it, or batch process flat files, the filter is applied to the whole image, rather than just what it is masked to.  I have to turn the mask off, then back on for it to apply.  I had to re-open 160 images and render the smart object layer to fix them.

Having trouble with the Spot Healing brush. When I click on the band-aid icon, there are no options that pop up to the side like I see in tutorials. Am in a a wrong mode? I am new to this. I can do the basics,and blemish remover is one, however I knew it on a version from a few years ago and can't see to find it now. I got the program last night. Thank you,Ash

Photoshop 2019 is freezing up when I put my computer in sleep mode. I have to kill that process and restart Ps. Rebooting seems to help for a day or so then the problem is back. I did not have this problem with 2018, nor do I have this problem with any of my other apps.I have a 4th-gen 4.00 MHz i7, 16 GB of RAM, a 512 GB SSD (only a couple of months old), and a decent graphics card with 2 GB of RAM (Nvidia GTX 750 Ti).

I've just updated to the latest version of Photoshop cc 2019 and since then when I have the brush tool selected the resizing/opacity HUD won't work as expected.In Photoshop CC 2018 the brush preview (i.e. the usually red overlay) look faded to the edges depending on the opacity level. like this:In Photoshop CC 2019 this works only if I use the HUD to change hardness instead of opacity, otherwise the brush won't show any fading, like this:Is there a way to show the fading edges in the preview even when changing opacity?

can someone give me a fool explanation on whats the difference between those two please.

Photoshop has become suddenly unusable. Almost every tool gives me an "Out of memory (RAM)" error and when I try to open the Performace pane I get the error in the title. I cannot get inside the settings, as this error keeps on popping up. I tried everything (reinstalling PS, deleting everything (including preferences), updating PS, updating Windows 10, switching to the latest Insider Preview). Nothing fixes this error.

Before I updated to CC2019 I created a workflow where I create versions of different templates in PS using artboards. Then I'd exports the artboards as separate .psd files for people in a different department to use. It worked wonderfully until I updated to the latest version of PS.Now I get the error in the attached image below when I try to do this.I've also attached screen grabs to get an idea of exactly what I'm trying to do.I've tried flattening library elements and smart objects. I've tried all the different options in the export options panel. Nothing changes.(was sent here by Adobe Customer Care on Twitter)

If you add a layer mask to a layer and start painting in it to hide/reveal pixels, if you undo the first brush stroke, the Art Layer becomes selected (unselecting the layer mask), therefore, when you start painting again, you're painting on the Art Layer, not the Layer's Mask.
