P: Smart Object Accidental Rasterizing

With the latest Ps update (24.0 on MacOS 12.3.1) if you accidentally draw on a smart object, it brings up a warning dialog. That's a good thing. What's bad is that Escape will actually confirm the rasterization, as well as click the "Learn More" button, opening up the corresponding web page.

Still happening.

 

No clue why this was listed as fixed in 24.1.0's release when it was clearly not.

No, it is not fixed.

Same behavior as before.

 

Hitting ESC rasterizes the Smart Object and opens the Browser Window.

 

ESC should be the same as Cancel.

The Browser should open only after clicking on "Learn More"

 

And could you please give us the Option to turn off this warning?

 

Please Fix this.

Hi there,

Still same issue on my PS 24.1.  I just updated.

on the screenshot, I tried to hit ESC when the dialog prompted and it opened my web browser with this link"https://www.adobe.com/404.html". Also the smart object was rasterized.

 For this to work porperly, you have to hit the cancel button on the dialog.

The new Rasterise to Edit Smart Object Warning Screen has very wrong behavior!

For example,  after clicking on the smart object layer with brush by accident the dialogue shows up and when you hit ESC (which in my opinion is the most common thing t do) it opens a browser window and in the meantime, it rasterizes the smart object without any warning. ESC could not be equal to OK? If you are not careful you could think that the layer is still smart object. And why the Browser opens also when I hit ESC? it should open when I click on Learn More?

 

 

This is very very wrong. Adobe, please get back to the previous behavior.

Hi,

Agreed, I have the same behaviour problem on PS 24 on win10.

Moreover, I also cannot use ESC button on an other error dialog box (if you try to use a brush without any layer selected) :

they both have in commun the "learn more" button, not sure if it's related tho

Rds,
