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 =(

I tested raw,dng,tif,jpg,png,psd and many other file types, set it to 8 bits depth.

Tried various sizes of images, including 2000px at least and 10000px at most.

 

After continuing to test, there is definitely a positive change.

One thing I can say for sure is that there seems to be a speed improvement compared to 23.3.2.

However, if 23.4 worked really fast regardless of the image size or bit depth above, there is a slight delay in 23.4.1.

Of course, 23.4.1 is not broken i guess. After continuing to test, it's much faster than the actual 23.3.2.

But if I were to list it based on the speed,

23.4 > 23.4.1 > 23.3.2 or other version

Among the photoshop version environments that I tested, 23.4 was the fastest, making me remember the old photoshop.(such as cc2014 or 2015)

 

Adobe recognizes what we want, and it certainly has improved speed. But as the author of this article says, something has changed since it was updated from 23.4 to 23.4.1.

It's not smooth. 23.4 was perfect for the response speed of the liquid pie, so I couldn't think of the word loading and delay itself. However, 23.4.1 seems to require some loading.

 

I'll have to test it more on MacOS, but what I'm talking about is the Windows OS

放大缩小如此缓慢的液化。 我怎样才能修好呢?

上海的西门老师提议安装23.4。 但是我不能使用。

I'm testing with a flat image, 10000px wide. I'll try something with layers next.

@Adam Jerugim  I found 23.5 and installed it and tested it, but there is a delay like 23.4.1. 23.4 was a normal speed. =(

Hi @Adam Jerugim  thanks for reply. I installed beta, but there is no 23.5 and 23.4 is the latest. Version 23.4 is normal because the delay has been modified as others said. Only 23.4.1 is. What kind of environment do you test? Is the normal image size correct? Make 2 or 3 layers and run a liquify. And if you try to zoom in quickly, there will be a delay again. All things considered, 23.4 worked perfectly and quickly. Something has changed.

I was able to easily reproduce this in 23.3.2 but can no longer reproduce in 23.4.1 (Windows 10).  Can you try downloading the Photoshop Beta (23.5) and see if the problem occurs there as well? Thanks.

desktop window10 21h2 my cpu 5900x 2080rtx

laptop m1 2021 macbook pro

 

image size mostly 4000px x 6000px ~ 6000px x 9000px  (Typical Dslr image Size)

If try to zoom in quickly, there will be a delay before 50% as before. Like the videos at the beginning of this thread. feels like it's loading. Delay

 

In 23.4, no matter how large the image size is, it zoomed in smoothly without any loading or delay.

But in 23.4.1 it was broken again.

It has the same delay as Windows and Mac OS.

We're not quite able to reproduce this yet in 23.4.1.

 

Can y'all provide more details on the types of workflow that is seeing this slow down?

What kind of system are you using?

How big are your files?

What are you up to in Liquify? 

 

Regards,

Pete

Tick-tock, tick-tock

As the delay begins again, my meaningless time passes again.

I thought months of pain was over

Should I just cancel my Photoshop subscription?
