Photoshop zoom is weird with delay in Liquify filter.

If i try to zoom in to more than 50%, it will take as long as 3 seconds to load the image. And then all of a sudden,  zoom in.

something wrong... This is very inconvenient. I reset the settings of Photoshop and reinstalled it. It's the same problem.

 

My laptop, imac is same issue. No OS problem... Photoshop version is 23.3
Fix and Help me plz =(

Thanks for sharing @janemii !  Unless I'm mistaken, the performance in your youtube looks pretty smooth.  The first zoom is expected to take a while to load based on your GPU's bus speed.

Not only keyboard shortcuts, but it's the same if you click directly with mouse or assign a zoom to the Wacom stylus.

@Andrew Sender 

Also, You can check this.

 

 

In the video PS version is PS23.5(beta).

(For your information, in that video that I just recorded, I was pressing the keyboard shortcut, zooming in, etc. constantly, or pressing zoom. I'm not deliberately zooming in slowly.)

I see a lot of improvement over 23.3.2. But you also don't feel as soft as you can see in the video. Once the loading is in progress, it will zoom in and out, otherwise it will be snapped. (Especially at zoom levels of 33% and 50%.)

@Andrew Sender  Thanks for comment.

I tested the image of 10000px by installing beta after looking at your article.

There's a lot of improvement over 23.3.2 but it still feels like it's going somewhere when it's over 50% zoom level. Need some loading.

I can't compare again because I can't install 23.4 anymore, but when I tried zooming in on the liquify when 23.4 was first released, all the problems were solved really perfectly.

 

I don't know how the bug about the zoom delay is fixed, but the timing?delay? I think it would be perfect if you could tighten the delay a little bit. ( don't know if that's how it's expressed.lol ).

Thank you.

Hi Everyone, 

We apologize for the Liquify issue. We have a potential fix in the Photoshop Beta build, which can be downloaded and installed independently from Photoshop, into its own ’Beta’ folder. Please try out your hardest Liquify workflows and let us know if it’s solid for you.  

 

With the vast configuration of computer systems running Photoshop, it’s impossible for us to replicate the wide range of behaviors on our systems here, so this fix is requiring lower-level patches that we need your help to verify before we roll this out to everybody.

My boss said this today.

"Why do you keep spacing out for a while while doing photoshop? Are you not working?"

Yes, He thought I was playing, not working.

I was just waiting for a delay...... 😞

I tried to roll back to 23.4 where the problem was resolved, but i can no longer revert.

The way I solve this problem is not to Select the whole thing.

Select only the parts you need: face, hands, neck, shoulders, legs, and so on.

23.4 resolved this issue, but 23.4.1 again requires this hassle of creating a selection. They have already fixed the delay once, so it will be reflected in the next update i guess.

When will the next version be released? I'm waiting for it to be fixed every day.

23.4.1 has delay when try zooming

The only solution at the moment is not to zoom in.
