P: Save for web, unable to paste file name

@dmohr 

It's been a problem for some time. See this post from 2014: https://feedback.photoshop.com/conversations/photoshop/photoshop-save-for-web-unable-to-use-short-cuts-in-save-dialog-copycutpaste-file-name/5f5f456b4b561a3d424ae449

I've paid $600 a year to Adobe. I've never asked for a new feature. All I ask is that you go back to all the bugs and mistakes you've coded and fix them. I realize you have a monopoly but somewhere deep inside do you have some professional pride? Any embarrassment that the software isn't up to standards established long long ago?

In Photoshop CC 2019 on macOS Catalina all of those issues don't exist!
It seems to be onlyin Photoshop CC 2020 onmacOS Catalina.
so a "fix" is to downgrade PS to the old 2019 (20.1 version) again. 
such a shame!

 

same problem here – it is extremely annoying.
there are quite a couple of issues with the save for web file dialog box:
1. this issue: not being able to paste into the filename box
2. the whole filename is preselected including the (e.g.) ".jpg" extension, it used to be only the filename, which is far more convenient so you can just start typing.

3. if the file already exists, the are now to confirmation dialogs asking to overwrite, seemingly one form the finder, and one from photoshop, BOTH have to be manually confirmed.... d'oh....

my guess is that all this strange behaviour, which conflics with years of muscle memory, and probably Apples design guidelines
is somehow interconnecte

Same problem here.

 

os 10.15.6

PS 21.2.3.

 

I mean to remember that in earlier versions of Photoshop the

Save for web Dialog was an extra Programm with extra Preferences, ill try to find it and delete it - maybe that works.

I've passed your message on to the decision makers.
Thanks,David

I am sorry David, but your response if of no help.

Some notes and thoughts regarding this incredibly frustrating, and inexcusable, issue:

Right clicking, and then choosing Paste, works. But the method that we professionals need to use is Command-V. The right-clicking method is way, way too slow.

Adobe: Catalina has been out for virtually one whole year. Would you care to get off the lawn chair and fix this very rudimentary function (albeit one we professionals rely on virtually every hour of every day)? What are we paying for with our monthly subscription fees?

Stepping back to Photoshop CC 2019 is not the answer (as some have suggested), as software is often updated to patch security vulnerabilities. Security experts recommend that users should run up-to-date apps to stay safe.

Furthermore, Adobe... as you know, there are alternative software titles out there which are fully capable of doing much of what Photoshop (and other Adobe titles) are capable of — but without the monthly fees. I have already been able to replace InDesign. If essential productivity functions — such as Command-V — continue to disappear from Photoshop, I will happily leave that title in the dust, too (after being a dedicated customer for almost 30 years).

My system:
Photoshop 21.2.2
OS X Catalina 10.15.8
iMac 27" 2019

Which Adobe should have accommodated a year ago.

Btw: In Photoshop CC 2019 everything works fine with Catalina 10.15.6 on my MBP (mid 2015, fully equipped). I like to forego the new "useful" features of PS CC 2020 and prefer to use the better working previous version.

Same issue here! MBP mid 2015 fully equiped, Catalina 10.15.6. Just updated yesterday from Mojave. Why did I suspect that this was not a good idea... I'm working with Adobe and Mac since 1998 but it was never as annoying as in the last few years.
