Feature Requests

Dear Adobe we dont care about about all these ne features like AI and generative fill. please just ad basic functions to the IPAD version like grids and snap text. what good is all this new stuff if you cant even align it to make it straight. forget all this new tech gimics and add tools that will help people create

With all this wealth of brushes provided by Kyle Webster it would be really helpful if it was easier to locate a brush. Some things that could make brush managment easier would be:A Favorites filter.Being able to search within a specific brush set folder.Being able to combine keywords in search. Lets say for example you add /L for large brushes and /O for oil brushes in their names and you can search with both terms or one of them at a time.Applying color coding (in bulk) and being able to search by color.A button to collapse all folder and subfolder that are currently expanded or open one brush folder and close all the rest much like the way you can with the layer visibility toggle in the layers panel.Being able to rename brushes in bulk with the option to add something to their existing names so that you can easily add a search term to a group of selected brushes.Tags would also be a great idea for combining search terms in order to find specific brushes. Thanks. 

Hello,I use the "Merge all layers into a new layer" function every day, with the shortcut: Cmd-Alt-Shift-E However, I do NOT understand why this function is non-existent in any Photoshop menu !!! The only way to use this function is to know the secret shortcut!!!! Why is that?Adobe: Could you please add this function to the "Layers" menu please! - Merge visible layers INTO A NEW Layer ! Thank you!The forums and internet are full of people wasting their time looking for this secret function!!!!

I often assidentaly try to delete a smart object while having a selection, and the "could not complete your request because the smart object is not directly editable" appears. Then, I have to move my pointer to hit OK, instead of just hitting Esc to get out of the dialog, hit Ctrl + D and get on with my life.  A much easier option is already present in Layer Styles - double clicking on the layer panel opens them, but if you accidentally clicked you can hit Esc and quickly get out.  I think the dialog for smart objects was made to educate new users, but for people who know how smart objects work it's a bit time consuming (at least for people like me who often do the mistake with selection). 

There are many optical effects we can add to Photoshop.

I am a long time photographer, and now a coin collector. I have been making GIF images to show off my coins. You can see them here: (weblink removed)   The first several images in that gallery show very 3-D coins rotating transparently against a fractal background. To make these images, I first make a 4K movie of the coin rotating in a Foldio 360 spherical light box. Then I import the movie to layers into a Photoshop PSD file. This file typically has 486 layers and is about 1800 x 1800 pixels.   Since I want to work on the layers with some of my Photoshop actions in batch mode, I must then convert these layers to files. That's where the problem comes in, because the built-in Photoshop script used to convert layers to files takes a whopping eight hours to complete.   You're probably thinking I'm using some old slow machine without much memory. That's not the case. I'm using a new 16" MacBook Pro M2 with 8 TB of SSD memory and 96 GB of SSD RAM.    I was a program

Spot filter, shapes filters, Color graduation filters and more

Please add a 'line thickness' option to the Photoshop Grid/Guides Dialog. When using a high-resolution Retina display, the default thickness is too thin - poor visibility. Also 2px increments (ie 1,3,5,7px etc) would allow/retain true centering of the lines.

한 번 열면 무조건 최근 파일 목록에 다 뜨고 지우려면 모든 최근 파일을 모두 지워야 하니까 불편합니다. 선택해서 지우고 싶은 파일만 최근 파일 목록을 보여주는 썸네일에서 지울 수 있는 기능을 추가해주세요.   

I would love to see a search option to find actions easier than scrolling through a ton of actions.

Hello! I would like to share a problem that I think other people face too, regarding the Generative fill in Photoshop. I think it comes as no surprise that using normal words gets BIASED results, and also, as no surprise that the word in question is "black". There are two (most important) examples for me, although this problem happened on many other "objects" that have the word black attibuted: 1) When using "black marble table", I get usually white tables. Many times when using this word, my promt gets totally ignored, and other colors fill the space.  2) when creating a new scene with the promt "black studio blackground", it turns out I violate the community guidelines. Most probably for the use of word "black", which I guess is..."racist"? Even more outrageous, is that using "white studio background" is completely fine, which leads to a simple absolutely logical question: why the bias?  I know this is an AI, and it can have bugs, but knowing the at

Choix du Zoom et Windows Tile type à l'ouverture d'un document : Idée : Dans les préférences, choix du % de zoom à l'ouverture d'un/des document(s) (taille de la fenêtre du document) en "Float All in Windows" + placement des fenêtres en tile / grille => aide à la gestion de tâches sur multiples fichiers. Cela existe dans Window/arrange, mais serait plus pratique à l'ouverture.Serait bien d'avoir plus d'options dans Window/Arrange, par ex : Float All in Windows en tile => serait hyper pratique pour gérer tâches comparables sur multiples fichiers 

When transfering an image file from Lightroom to Photoshop, and then after Photoshop adjustments saving the file back to Lightroom, the image is given an extension file reference. I have played with the Preference settings (in Lighgtroom) but cant seem to locate one that works.I am trying to arrange that when I move a file {Z2A1234.cr2} from LR to PS to process it, then return it to LR, it is saved as a new file with a difernt name for example a new file name - Z2A1234-Edit.tif.If I return the Z2A1234-Edit.tif. file to PS for further editing then back to LR it returns with a file name Z2A1234-Edit-Edit.tif etc.If you do multiple edits the number of Edit-Edit suffix grow!!It would be so much better to have v01, v02 , v03 etc so that you can easily determine which version is the latest.

I often need to select many layers in the layers palette and often they are all next to each other. I'd like to be able to select them with one click and a motion, upward or downward, much like toggling the view allows (eyeball box on left side of palette), i.e. click and drag up/down across the eyeballs to toggle view on/off. I'd like to see an option in the Layers palette to turn on a new column that is a Selection Toggle Column that works like the eyeball column. Then I wouldn't have to reach for the keyboard as I do most of the time now. Thank you.

Multiple photos in an image - circular and linearand also star effects

It would be very usefull if the tool cursor would change/indicate which tool you actually use at the moment. Espacially if it is the same tool.I.E.: I often use two of the repair tools - the remove tool and the repair brush. Both have similar tool cursors, so coming from another tool or switching documents I often dont know which tool is acutally active. It would be helpfull, if there would be some kind of indication, which tool it is.

How can i change the setting of the file size appearing when opening in photoshop? For example i want all files to open with 8% instead of 12%

With the new brush panel, it's easy to accidentally move brushes around while selecting them, especially when working quickly. I'm sure other people are frustrated by this.   Please add a feature to lock the panel with your next version that help with this problem. The old brush panel didn't have this problem since you had to edit the brush preset to be able to move them. Thank you!

I've been using photoshop on Windows OS to draw landscapes for quite some time, and just recently bought an iPad mini to have something more portable. I'm extremely saddened to find out the tool I use the most for blending sky, water, land, etc. is not available on iPad. My favorite brush is Kyle's All Purpose Blend (smudge), and I can't use it on my iPad because the smudge tool doesn't let you pick brushes like PC does. I didn't know the interface would be so disappointingly different from PC, or else I wouldn't have bought this iPad. It has almost no options to change the way the smudge tool works. Please add the ability to scatter the smudge tool to iPad photoshop / add more smudge options like the PC version has (see screenshot below).  

It seems like a missed oportunity to not be able to change a brush roundness with a shortcut.we can change size with [ ]hardness with { }rotation with left arrow and right arrowwhy not roundness with up arrow and down arrow and shift up arrow and down arrow for 10% changes??? I've tried but can't even add it as my own shortcut 😞

Does not know what an Oxford button down collar looks like. Does not generate a button down collar at all. This is a basic shirt type for men and women. 

a simple must for hand animation to swap between the different drawings on the timeline instantly. so my request is to be able to press a key to go to the previous or next image on the timeline, and have the timehead follow. or have an option you can turn on where if you click a layer the timehead goes to the layer's spot on the timeline. I have tried scripting this as it should be trivial, but there's one thing absolutely beyond hidden (even in AM code); the variables for layer's location and length on the timeline. so my request is either an feature adjustment for the current timeline, an update to be able to read the layer's timeline variables, or the location of those variables if they can be reached already. thank you for your time 

A ferramenta de revisão poderia ser mais ágil, onde alteramos o design e automaticamente ja altera para a visualização de revisão imediatamente, sem necessitar atualizar a página. Como exemplo o figma que possui a ferramenta mirror no app para celular

There are wires in many city and landscape photos that one wants to remove. Wires that cross trees or in front of buildings. The remove tool clears teh background too and that is not what one wants to do. If would be so nice to click on a wire (or a post) and the software selects it and then removes it. Having to use the lasso tool to select a wire is not an easy task and a very time consuming. Difficult to follow a wire with a mouse. Maybe a select tool e.g. select object except is a one click step. Similar to using a lasso tool to remove an object by just clicking on the wire!

Many users are confused by the marching ants previews (a feature request for 0% treshold of selections to be added here)  but so not seem to notice the Quick mask button or to know their Q shortcut. Select and Mask has an entire array of masking previews: on black, on white, quickmask style(overlay), onion skin, that should be available for each and every masking/selection tool.   Please add all the preview modes in the option bar, but especially in the Contextual Task Bar!
