P: PS 25.4 (Win/macOS) Moving a Layer and clipped layer inside a group mask causes rendering issue

Hi,

I've stumbled upon a bug that frustrates me A LOT. When I move a layer partially outside an artboard and then move it back, it gets temporarily cropped. The false crop goes away when I turn layer visibility off and back on or move the layer using keyboard arrows.

When does it happen:

- layer is inside a group and I move the whole group

- I move multiple layers containing smart objects

- I use mouse/touchpad, not keyboard arrows

I'm on MacBook Pro Sonoma 14.3, using Photoshop 25.4.

There may be a tendency to leave older issues like this alone; it's deep in the bowels of the compositor, and going in there is risky for a wide range of other operations. But we have it on the backlog now to look into, and will give it a shot. This will likely take a good month or so do get a read on the situation and pull together a response; thanks for your patience.

This has been a problem for at least the last 5 major versions of Photoshop, perhaps much longer since it's been so long I've forgotten when it started. Maybe around when they switched to the CC subscription versions? It doesn't have to be a clipped group either, moving anything at all inside a mask causes the described symptoms. But not 100% of the time though, just most of the time. I haven't delved into exactly how to reliably recreate it.

It happens with GPU Compositing off and GPU off.
If one turns visibility of Layer on/off the screen updates.

Also seems to happens in previous versions. 

Thanks for this report. Can you try turning off GPU compositing in Preferences > Performance > Advanced and see if it's still naughty?
