Feature Requests

Hi, I've seen this mentioned a couple times but haven't seen any actual discussion around it. Procreate has an amazing feature where you can hold the stylus down after drawing a freehand stroke, and it will automatically straighten the stroke from its starting point. You can then reposition the endpoint however you want, stretching the entire stroke in realtime until you let go. I think this would be an incredible addition to PS's drawing/painting toolset - I find it way easier to use in almost every scenario than the click-and-shift-click to draw a line between two points. Reasons:   - Procreate's tool allows you to straighten an actual stroke, including whatever pressure dynamics you may have applied along it. As far as I know, Photoshop's approach will interpolate between the stylus pressure of the starting and ending points, but doesn't really give you any active control over the stroke in between them. It's also extremely hard to get consistent/predictable results this way, a

Just an idea in case anyone is watching. I use dropshadows in layer styles all the time. I mock up artwork on walls a lot and use dropshadows on the frames. I get quite close to real looking shadows by using upwards of five dropshadows per frame/object, but with a few improvements the dropshadow effect could be much better.A 'length parameter' could be added. This would act differently to distance, in that rather than simply positioning the layer shape further away, it would give an angled stretch in the appropriate direction, (as if you duplicated and moved the object incrementally many many times like an illustrator blend). It is effectively the same as if you were to add an angle option to the spread parameter. When objects touch walls/floors the shadow starts at the point of contact and stretches away and this is not possible to do with the current dropshadow.The second thing I'd like to see is a very simple deform function, much like the warp mesh in layer transform, so that the s

As a 3D modeler, my work pipeline includes a lot of work on normal maps, and some of them are created from height maps which I compose in Photoshop.In the past, there used to be an Nvidia plug-in that could convert a layer to a normal map.Since then three things have happened:1. The Nvidia plugin no longer works on more recent (after 2018 or so) versions of photoshop2. An internal Normal map flter was introduced but as you increase the normal map's "depth" it tends to add unwanted distortion in the normal maps I create - adding haloes around hard edges to "smooth them out", possibly. It also contains some contrast controls that I haven't been able to find documentation for and seem to do nothing.3. These tools are about to be retired soon (or so adobe has been saying for some time now) Soon it seems I'll be left with no way to use normal maps inside photoshop and every time I want to create one I'll need to use some external tool.So I had an idea - would it be possible for Adobe t

Way too many fonts in the fonts menu. Please add a way to filter out or hide system fonts so that they aren't visible. Using Favorites is not an efficient solution when bouncing between different clients all day every day. This would be valuable in Ai and InDesign as well.

Insert in the settings the possibility to activate: "View, fit to screen" when opening a file or when editing with Photoshop from Lightroom with the various choicesI could not find "Viw, Fit to screen" both in Photoshop or Lightroom. Can you please give me more details ?

Currently, the process of renaming layers in Adobe's apps is inconsistent and misleading for new users.It provides a frustrating experience when working in several apps simultaneously. To rename a layer, users need to perform different actions in Photoshop, Illustrator, and After Effects:  Double ClickReturn keyAfter Effects–OKPhotoshopOK–IllustratorOK– Please, fix it, and make it consistent.

Greetings Adobe Photoshop users, As an editor for a website that specializes in cosmetic dentistry and dental implants, Adobe Photoshop 2021 is an invaluable tool for creating exceptional graphics. Lately, I have been experiencing challenges with the pixel quality of the fonts I add to my designs. The fonts are not displaying the desired level of crispness that I require for my graphics. I was wondering if any of you have faced a similar issue with fonts in Adobe Photoshop 2021. If you have, I would appreciate any tips or insights you might have to enhance the pixel quality of added fonts in your designs. I am always looking for ways to improve the visual appeal of my website graphics, and I would be immensely grateful for any assistance in this regard. Thank you for taking the time to read my message, and I look forward to hearing from you.

In our educational Adobe license we cannot use the "generative fill" function in Photoshop. We use the Shared Device license (Default - Creative Cloud All Apps for K-12 - Shared Device, ETLA). Is there a way to add this feature? I see a lot of questions about this, but Adobe just doesn't come up with a solution. Should we purchase other licenses and incur high costs? Then the entire effect of the educational licenses is gone. I hope you (Adobe employees) will think about this and come up with a solution. This will help many school institutions. 

Hello Adobe Team and Photoshop Community,I'm a Photoshop user with 15 years of experience, and I've come up with an idea that could significantly enhance the workflow in Photoshop, particularly for creators involved in image manipulation.Idea: Integration of Camera Raw features into Adjustment Layers.Details:Adjustment Layer Feature: Implement Camera Raw settings as part of Photoshop's adjustment layers. This would include elements like the Basic Panel, Color Pane, HSL, Camera Calibration, and Color Grading.Layer-Specific Adjustments: By having Camera Raw in adjustment layers, users can apply settings to individual layers without navigating away to filters.Enhanced Color and Light Matching: This feature would allow creators to adjust light and color settings on a single layer while observing and matching them with other layers in real time.Efficiency and Accuracy: The integration would provide a more efficient workflow, enabling faster and more precise color and lighting adjustments.Th

I'm working with old photos many of which are printed on fiber paper or paper that has dots or ridges or photos that were printed on "canvas." They are overall patterns that cover the entire photograph. It's not a moire effect - these textures are an integral part of the paper. It's the "finish" style. For example, back in the old days you could specify that your photos be printed out with a glossy or matte finish. This is an extreme version of that. I'm trying to edit these photos in Photoshop and it's a nightmare. The only solutions that I've found are complicated and I haven't had much luck in creating a successful result. Here are the ones that I've found: 1. FFT (fast fourier transform) I'm not nerdy enough to figure it out. It's like old HP calculators that used "reverse Polish notation." 2. scan the photo once and then rotate it 180 degrees and scan it again, then merge the two like photographic plates. I won't live long enough to do that with all the photos I'm editing. 3. It w

Provide a special panel for AI generative fills like the neutral filter in Photoshop.   In which give a whole panel like adobe firefly web site in that panel, AI generative fill give an option to insert background of our choice in our photo with one click so we don't need to write prompt every time.   Given a sample image like adobe firefly web site an image like that image should be generated and the background image should appear in our photo, next to the box given to write a prompt, there should be an option to upload a background sample image, both the option to write a prompt or upload a sample image, the prompt After writing this is still not giving 100% desired result in photoshop, so give option to upload sample image to add photo background, add something to photo, atleast 500 units per month in basic plan still this photoshop AI is not working properly.

In both After Effects and Illustrator clicking with a scroll wheel and dragging acts like a pan tool which is very handy. For some reason it doesn't work this way in Photoshop. Middle click does nothing in Photoshop. Please implement a feature in Photoshop so that the scroll wheel click works same good way as it does in After Effects and illustrator.  Scroll wheel up/downScroll wheel click and dragAfter EffectsZoom in/outPanIlustratorZoom in/outPanPhotoshopZoom in/out––– There is a similar request for AdobeXD: https://community.adobe.com/t5/character-animator-ideas/add-a-middle-wheel-drag-for-timeline/idi-p/13559695

Parametric Filter menu. No preview button?

It would be nice to have a layer panel right click "Export As.." to Webp feature.When exporting layer elements and groups for websites it would be nice to have to ability to export them directly to webp... 

I use a lot of very fine brushes and even with the palette set to its largest size, I can't see the nuance of what brush I'm trying to select. I wish there could be an option to display a separate window with a much larger view of a selected brush.I know it's not AI, but it would be helpful! 

Olá, gostaria de deixar aqui uma sugestão de ferramenta nova para o Photoshop, que seria, ao selecionar um objeto e rotacionar, apareça uma opção para alinhar a rotação com alguma linha na diagonal, para o objeto selecionado ficar rotacionado no mesmo angulo da linha selecionada.

Wie entferne ich einen Blendeffekt im Foto?   

In Photoshop/Bridge allow the option for Bridge to open a file without applying file size, colour profile, MB size changes. Have an option to allow Bridge to open the file as is. For example I've already edited and exported a DNG to jpeg. Now I want  to add a lens blur to the jpeg version but i do not want my default setting of 300ppi, ProPhoto, applied to the jpeg when it opens in Bridge.. 

Adjustment Layers palette rolling from the bottom of the screen is annoying. Photoshop 2024, MacOS Sonoma. This effect slows down the work process. It used to be different in previous versions of PS CC - the whole palette appeared at the click on Adjustment Layer icon.

Hi,So since the Beta versions of Adobe came out, there is this floating settings menu, that I feel is not user friendly at all. I can see the benefit of it, tbh I only use that for AI generation as I'm just so used to my UI layout and this little window does not offer enough settings for me to start using it.Still I think it could be useful and as I mentioned I use it for AI, BUT the automated positioning of it is driving me crazy it is way too close to my working area and I keep accidentally clicking into it then I have to drag it out of the way then I have to drag it again as it never remembers of the position where I moved it.Can this be worked on? Same for illustrator. I'd use this feature if it wasn't literally between my cursor and graphics that I want to see and work on. It's just way too closeThanks for considering it! 🙂

Adobe has made significant improvements to Photoshop and ACR over the past couple of years. Yet in one key area competitors such as Capture One are at least as good as ACR as a pure raw converter. One key area for Adobe to address is its black recovery in ACR. In 2019 Capture added this module to their converter, and the black recoveries are superior to anything Photoshop offers.  I would drop Capture, save for the power of its raw converter. The capture tool alows me to take pictures where I know I have a lot of dark exposure but can get great recoveries using Capture - and much better than ACR. Thanks! 

Would be great to have the Export as... function the ability to take the filename and add into the export files filename, and /or ability to add custom prefix!! Already a Suffix field exists. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the filter skin smoothing to put in all skin hands foots not only in faces he dident look ok like that

Dear Adobe Creative Team, I hope this email finds you well. My name is Jerome, and I am a passionate user of Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Today, I am reaching out to share an idea that could significantly enhance the user experience and functionality of these industry-leading design platforms. The concept is to integrate a live assistant, powered by advanced AI similar to OpenAI's GPT technology, into Photoshop and Illustrator. This assistant would have capabilities such as vision, hearing, and speech, enabling it to interact with users in real-time. Imagine an AI companion that can provide immediate assistance, offering suggestions on design elements like fonts and styles, or guiding users through the various tools and features available to bring their creative visions to life. This AI assistant could operate in two modes:An autonomous mode, where the assistant takes the helm, executing tasks and making design decisions based on user input.A collaborative mode, wher

Add shortcut customization on Adobe camera RAW or give suitable shortcut key arrangement.EX: there is no necessary image rotation CMD+R and L, if can customize at least object masking shortcut. it's easy to mange our work load.
