P: Can't move Reference Point while transforming (22.0.1)

New bug introduced in Version 22.0.1 on Mac. While transforming the (anchor) reference point can not be moved by holding Opt/Alt and clicking to a new position. The workaround is to move the cursor while clicking on the new position, then the new anchor point appears at the new position. Clicking once is doing nothing.

Same here (macOS 10.15.7). A really annoying bug. I hope this can be resolved quickly – together with the missing ruby overlay while changing brush size and hardness.

Note: I can option-click and drag it, but the click does nothing and that was difficult to discover. It worked with just a click before 22.

Photoshop 22.0.1 on Mac OSX Catalina

New bug with recent update: normally during free transform, option-clicking would set a reference point at the cursor location. This was working with Photoshop 21.

I DO have the reference point visible and I can set it by dragging or any of the corners or centers with the tool bar.

But the option click was best for my work flow.

the reference point on transform is not clickable anymore.

now I have to click and drag to move it.
