P: Create new window not reflecting right dimensions from clipboard

Hello, I am having an issue with photoshop where File > New > is not auto-inputting the clipboard size into the canvas size for the new document. This has worked on every version of photoshop until this point. I sadly ended up on version 23.3.2 (photoshop just updated itself in the last couple days I guess without me noticing, and I am pretty sure I had that auto update turned off since I reverted back to 22.2 a couple weeks ago, sigh)

 

Have you guys considered testing your product before launching updates? I reverted back to 22.2 because of all the bugs I was experiencing with the latest versions. Seems turning auto update off cant even save me.

    When creating a new document from screen capture, the clipboard is not populating the width and height correctly.

    Hi,

    Photoshop 2022 on Mac Os Monterey 12.4

    Copy document, Paste into new Document, same size,

    (fast move i do since 2000)

    now distracted by dialogue option, then: not using the actual size, but always using the sitze of a "Template (Vorlage (Recent)" not the size of "clipboard (zwichenablage)"... 

    no matter where I click on... 

     

    It could be so simlpe: COPY selection 3245x3578px (appers as "from Clipboard)

    i click new document, (doubleclick), it is then: 1000x2000 px (from some recent document i created... whenever... 

    this makes me really mad, because everything works fine in Photoshop 2021 (btw even the wonderful shpherical panorama option i was using for fulldome movie projects- 

     

    I pay every month for a product that seems to stop working since i Updated on the new OS, and started to work wrong since the update to Photoshop 2022...

     

    help!

    Hi

    This is a known bug and the engineers are working on a fix. There are several workarounds. One is to click another preset such as "Default", then click again on the preset for "Clipboard".

    @SimplTrix  yes it's both, clipboard size and pasting the wrong (previous) images.

    until they fix this I constantly have paint opened just to paste images in order to update the photoshop clipboard.
    Very time consuming when trying to paste a large number of images.

      I've just started having this EXACT same issue after the last update. It's horribly annoying.

      When I try to create a new document, the "clipboard" document size is pre-selected as expected, the size on that selection is correct, however the actual document size to be created (to the right) is the last created document size.

       

      I need to either manually update the document size, or click OFF of the clipboard present and back onto it.

       

      Why?

      I have a work around that works, and it's just an extra step!

      After copying, I hit Ctrl+N, Esc, and then Ctrl+N again.

      Basically, the clipboard size is correct, however, the width and height of the new file don't get updated.

      This workaround works 100% of the time for me. 

      Annoying, but at least it works.

      @smeckdesigns does photoshop also paste the WRONG (previous) file as well? or is it just a clipboard sizing issue for you

      PS version 23.4.2
      Windows 10

       

      I've had this issue for several months now, but at the moment it's changed from annoying to unworkable.

      Every time i copy an image or text I first have to paste said image or text in another application before photoshop updates it's clipboard cache.

      If it's the first image I've copied since startup it just refuses to paste anything, and after that it always pastes the second to last images/text that was copied instead of the most recent one. Purging the cache doesn't seem to fix this.

       

      This issue also seems to affect trying to open a new file in the size of the clipboard. It shows the size of the clipboard, but then ignores it when making the file. Double clicking on the clipboard creates a file which ignores the size of the clipboard.
      Again using the size of the second to last file on the clipboard or last opened size

      Hello! When I want to create a document by the size of the picture from the clipboard, the dimensions of the document are not updated automatically.
       
      My version now:
      Adobe Photoshop: 23.4.2 20220711.r.603 aa147b3 arm64
      Mac OS 12.1.0
       
      The previous version didn't have this problem:
      Adobe Photoshop: 22.3.1 20210406.r.122 990be2c arm64.
       
      But I updated the Mac, updated the PS, and everything became not so comfortable.
