P: Floating windows are sluggish compared to docked tabs on MacOS 10.10 Yosemite

OK Thanks again I appreciate the great support.

Uri,

I just sent you an email so that we can work on figuring this out. Please get in touch when you get a chance.

Thanks,
Adam

And I fully appreciate any help you can offer me on this. You guys helped me through a similar issue years ago on my PC when GPU support came out.

This is a fresh new install on my new MacBook Pro 2.5ghz 16gb ram that I got for Photoshop use and would return the mac if this can't be fixed so I need to know what you guys think either way. I do not have any extensions or plugins just a raw install. I did try resetting the prefs file before posting as well. Please let me know how we can resolve this. A phone call maybe or whatever you think.. Thanks in advance! - Uri

Do you have an 3rd party Extension panels installed?

Try restoring your preferences: http://blogs.adobe.com/crawlspace/201...

If you do restore your prefs, please save a copy of your existing prefs in case they turn out to be the culprit. Having the bad prefs can sometimes help us track down the issue.

I also tried changing all the Use Graphics Processor advanced settings in performance (testing on new windows each time) and it didn't help this.

Thanks for the reply. Heres what I have:

Adobe Photoshop Version: 2014.2.1 20141014.r.257 2014/10/14:23:59:59 CL 987299 x64

Operating System: Mac OS 10.10.1

Which specific version of Photoshop?
Which specific OS version?
