P: 24.5 After rotating canvas, any PS window popup resets the rotation

Hello people

If I rotate the canvas then decide to use any tool that has a window popup (New layer, Adjustments...), the canvas will reset the view to 0. It kills my workflow. Anyone have a workaround? Restarting photoshop doesn't work. It didnt do this in the previous version.

Thanks

@CShubert Could you be so kind to leave a message in this thread when this is fixed? I Just reverted to an older version cause it's impossible to maintain a proper workflow for anyone who got used to rotating their canvas freely under this update.

Thank you for aknowledging the problem.

@CShubert - i'm having the same issue that seems to be new with the 24.5 update. Extremely frustrating for the comparison work I do!!

I'm painting.  I rotate the image to get an optimal angle (A) on making a brush stroke. I open the color picker palette to tweak my color before applying the stroke.  The image rotates from (A) back to 0 degrees when the color picker palette opens.  Please revert the rotation feature to return back to 0 degrees only when I do so with the rotation tool, not when I open the color picker.

Why is there no edit button on this website??? 

The photoshop window is only on one screen (Ultrawide) its not stretched across both

Sorry but I already reverted to a previous build since I couldn't work with the bug. 

The steps are, using a wacom tablet and 2 monitors (1 utrawide and the native laptop screen), holding R key, rotate the canvas, use cmd/ctrl + shift + N to open a new layer (Just an example as it happens with any popup), as soon as the popup to rename the layer shows up, the canvas would return to 0 degrees. (What shows that its a bug is that the small square that shows the degrees of the angle in the rotate tool still shows the rotated value) 

Hope this helps

@stotkaFZD could you share your workflow/steps, or a video showing what you are seeing? Testing here and not able to reproduce this, happy to keep trying but not sure if we are doing the same things you are.

I posted this in a different thread, adding it here:
Same. Even when creating a new layer via drop down menu. Chatting with support yielded no results. I'm tired of uninstalling and reinstalling and manually inputting preferences over and over and over again. These constant bugs incredibly frustrating and time wasting. Stop kissing up to shareholders with trendy, useless "features" and PLEASE I am begging you PLEASE focus more on stability and security. We shouldn't have to troubleshoot so much.
