P: Photoshop on iOS v7.3.2 & v7.4 Canvas cannot be zoomed or panned when the detail layers panel is open

When the detailed Layers panel is open, it sometimes obscures the image I’m working on. The usual 2-finger-drag gesture to move the image on the screen doesn’t work when the Layers panel is open. Workaround is to close the Layers panel, move the image with a 2-finger drag, and then reopen the Layers panel, which isn’t an ideal workflow. Thanks for listening.

    Hi ​@kabili11336026,

     

    Thank you for reporting this. I’m able to reproduce the same behavior on iOS, including on version 7.4. When the detailed Layers panel is open, the two-finger drag gesture does not move the canvas as expected.

     

    I’m going to check internally whether this is already a known issue. If there isn’t an existing bug logged for it, I will create one with the product team.

     

    Really appreciate you bringing this to our attention and clearly describing the workflow impact.

     

    I’ll update once I have more information.

     

    Regards,
