Hi-

In Photoshop 25.12 on Mac 14.6.1 going into the history flyout panel to "New Snapshot" no longer opens the additional options box for selecting current layer. Instead, a new overal snapshot is produced like it would be if you clicked the little camera icon at the bottom of the palette. Any idea if something has changed?

In 27.4.0 the issue I originally reported is fixed...thank you! I was accustomed to using the workaround so I may have missed when the fix was first issued, but it is working for me now. Great to have it back.

@tharrington - You're welcome, I'm glad that you find the script useful as an alternative while this issue is investigated. If the script is installed in the application's Presets/Scripts directory, then a custom keyboard shortcut can be applied without requiring an action.

The issue still exists in Photoshop 26.3.0. I am grateful for the scipt that was written below. Assigning action to this script has worked well as a workaround.

Is there any update on this issue?

I don't understand why something that worked perfectly well, simply disappears?

You can rename a snapshot just like you would a layer; simply double-click on the snapshot name. You can use it even while recording Photoshop actions, but that can be cumbersome, of course. Each time, you must select Snapshot 1 and rename it; this can be a workaround in case you need it at any time.

Hello,

if it can help, I did a script in an older version where it was working, like 24.7.4, choose to put an option in action panel to change the name, and import the atn in the other photoshop version, .. also with the ability to set the historic brush.. Just, it needs to create all cases of names before...

in the 25.11.0 i succeed to chang name and kind of snapshop,

in the 26.2.0, it's going worse... i didn't succed to change name anymore...

so, what's next ?

i dont know how to send atn file, so here a links :

So I have noticed for a few months, even before the 2025 Photoshop update (v26.0+), that "New Snapshot" wasn't working properly, along with the History Brush. I did figure out that the "New Snapshot" dialog box was no longer popping up when you choose "New Snapshot". This is an issue because it was automatically creating a "Full Document" snapshot without being able to select "Current Layer," which renders the history brush unusable (at least for how I use it). The workaround I found was reinstalling the first version of the 2024 PS (v25.0). I am sure it is in later versions because I used it not to long ago, but it is not working in the last version of the 2024 PS (v25.12.1). Hopefully this is something that Adobe will correct in upcoming versions for 2025? In the meantime, this is a work around to help any of you who use it on the regular. I will note, I am up to date in the Apple OS, but I don't feel that would affect this issue, just wanted to note it.
