This is a bug. Please don't move it to the Discussions tab.
And please don't merge into another unrelated thread. I will report a bug with this thread.
------------------------------------
I made a YouTube video using a keyboard mouse overlay to show what action I'm taking. I hope you can refer to refer to it.
------------------------------------
I was disappointed that there were so many bugs that were not fixed in 24.5, but I was still trying to give it a shot.
However, this bug is pretty serious. Really...
Please see the video I attached.
If you watch the video, you will see that I am shaking the screen.
I'm not using a hand tool, it should release automatically, but that thing is sticky.
To release this sticky, pinned handtool, you'll need to make one more unconditional click.
Here's how I've organized them for your reference.
< What I can be sure of >
- Window10 (Tested a total of 14 PCs)
- Use WacomTablet
- Not related to preferences at all (Especially not related to Spring loaded, Flick panning stuff things)
- I've tried all the known Photoshop troubleshooting methods and no improvement.
- Even reinstalling Windows does the same thing
- Only in 24.5 does this bug occur with certainty. I can't reproduce it at all in earlier versions.
< I'm not sure about the >
- Mac OS not tested
- I couldn't even test if it was a GPU company difference. I and my team all use NVIDIA
And while there are a few threads pointing this out, there doesn't seem to be a proper plan to fix it.
If this is not fixed in 24.6, 24.6 will be equally unusable as 24.5.
