I just noticed it now, it maybe temporary glitch or something that's been there for a while, I have no idea for how long this was present.

 

when I select area with patch tool and move the selection around, the shape of the patch tool shown through the target area is rentangle rather than my original selection.

 

Is this normal behavior? Or something I haven't seen it cause I was not paying attention all these time?

Thx Jane,

 

Resetting preference by clicking "reset preference on quit" did not resolve the issue.

 

One thing I forgot to mention on the OP is my specs and versions

 

m1 MacMini 16G RAM, 512GB SSD, macOS Monterey 12.3.1,

Running dual monitor (QHD and optimized for QHD on FHD) via HDMI and Thunderbolt

 

Adobe Photoshop v23.4.1

Adobe Camera Raw v14.4

Adobe Lightroom Classic v11.4

thx for the reply,

 

The layers in the video are all 100% solid.

 

I've reset preferences for Photoshop by going into "preferences" and clicking "reset preference on quit" but no dice.

 

Guess I'll have to roll back but I've got some edits on my hand atm sooooo...wait for the new patch.

Stephanie, I've moved this from "Discussions" to "Bugs".

No. That's not normal! I can't see your layer very well, but it LOOKS solid. I assume it's a solid layer with no cutouts. If this is the case - this is a bug and should be reported using the Bugs tab at the top of this forum.
