Info panel doesn't show "before" values, only "after". (Photoshop release 26.8.1).

Every section of the panel show only one value, even for custom sample points, check screenshot attached.

Is it a bug?

This has been a long wait for such a basic function that should never have slipped through the net on a full release.

However, its working now, thanks

Sameer, this was documented in July. Any idea when this might be addresses with a new update?

Hey, @ParkAve. I understand it has been a while. A fix was merged for this issue very recently in the Photoshop (beta) m.3208.

Please feel free to try it. I'll update this thread once the fix is merged and released for Photoshop (non-beta).

Thanks!

Here's a screenshot of the same image on 25.12.4 (left) and 26.10 (right) with exaggerated Magenta curve adjustment. 26.10 only shows the current magenta value as opposed to the before and after magenta values on 25.12.4.

No one likes a surprise like this especially on a Monday morning.

Please see my previous posts for this issue. It is Mac only I assume. Right now the only way around this is to downgrade to version 26.7

I encountered a problem where when using the color sampling tool, the information panel displays the final adjusted colors.

However, my friend's computer is Windows, and using the adjustment layer on her computer, she wants to display the contrast before and after the adjustment. Is this the difference between Mac and Windows? Or is it a problem with my settings?
If it's a system issue, I hope Adobe can solve it.

Is there an issue with the Info panel displaying before-and-after color values in real time adjustments

I just upgraded to Photoshop 26.9.0 (mac OS 13.5) and the Eyedropper is no longer showing before and after when you have a tool like curves open on the image. I tried the fixes of making sure all layers is checked, makeing sure Show Sampling Ring is checked, use Graphic Processor is checked. Nothing works. Is this a bug?

Correct. Just checked for that in the current beta and it is not fixed there either.

Install version 26.7 to restore the proper behavior.
