P: Photoshop 28.0: Properties Panel Shows Incorrect Canvas Dimensions Based on Document Resolution (PPI)

Subject: Photoshop 28.0 – Incorrect canvas dimensions displayed in Properties panel

Product: Adobe Photoshop 28.0
Operating System: Windows 10

Bug description:

The Properties panel (Canvas section) displays incorrect physical canvas dimensions when working with documents at different resolutions (40 PPI and 120 PPI).

The dimensions shown in the Properties panel are inconsistent with the actual document dimensions displayed in Image → Image Size.

For example:

• A document with a resolution of 120 PPI and actual dimensions of 504 × 238 cm is incorrectly displayed as 1512.04 × 714.01 cm.

• The displayed dimensions are approximately three times larger than the actual dimensions.

I also noticed that the issue occurs when working with documents at different resolutions.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open a document with a resolution of 120 PPI.

2. Open another document with a resolution of 40 PPI.

3. Switch between the two documents.

4. Check the dimensions in the Properties → Canvas panel.

5. Compare these values with Image → Image Size.

Expected result:

The Properties panel should display the correct physical canvas dimensions, consistent with the values shown in Image Size.

Actual result:

The Properties panel displays incorrect physical dimensions. The values appear to be calculated using an incorrect resolution conversion factor.

Restarting Photoshop temporarily restores the correct display, but the issue occurs again when working with documents at different resolutions.

This issue is particularly problematic for large-format print production, where accurate physical dimensions are essential.
