Many users get confused that the selection can "bleed" further than what is shown by the maching ants, the latest being: https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-discussions/no-matter-what-i-do-photoshop-keeps-painting-outside-my-selection/td-p/14177626   It is about time to bring the maching ants in the modern world, and take a look at what ACR/Lr is doing, and maybe supplement them with a view of the 0% to indicate a non-soft selection. Another masking/selection view suggestion here: https://community.adobe.com/t5/photoshop-ecosystem-ideas/bring-view-mode-settings-from-select-and-mask-to-all-selection-tools/idi-p/14179092#M19350

I would love to have the same sizing option while opening files from Lightroom to Photoshop as there is from Camera Raw to Photoshop. 

When the eyedropper tool is active (keyboard shortcut: I) I can right-click to get access to the sample size menu.   When the Brush tool is active (B) I can press Alt (on Windows) to temporary change to the eyedropper tool. When I then right-click and hold I can change the brush size and hadrness by moving the mouse. Feature request: show the sample point size menu when I right-click while holding Alt ehen the Brush tool is active, without holding the button down for a long time or moving the mouse. Bonus points: include in that menu also the "Sample from" options, so that it would look like this: Motivation: there is no easy way to see or change the sampling size or sample from when using eyedropeer from the "Alt"-shortcut when the Brush tool is selected. I have to change from Brush to the Eyedropper tool and back to Brush.

a feature that I miss in Photoshop is being able to use the eyedropper tool to capture color from anywhere on the screen, this feature is available in Unity and is very useful, there could also be something like this in Photoshop

[weblink removed]AI can generate great stuff but it can't do something basic like upscale to 400% or more? This should also be possible in Premiere and AE.

Please enable the ability to transform multiple selected layers at once and apply pixel liquify to all selected layers simultaneously in Photoshop, like Clip Studio. Currently, mesh transformation and pixel liquify are only possible for a single layer. Please add the functionality to apply mesh transformation and pixel liquify to multiple layers simultaneously.  ++++Clip Studio Paint even allows you to apply pixelization to a group folder containing multiple layers, even when selected. Please create this feature. It's too inconvenient that it only applies to one layer.  가능한 최대한 빨리

Would love to see an update to the Image Processor that includes the option to save PSB.  Would be fantastic for those of us that composite very large images.  Curious to know if others would find this useful, and also what other features you might want to see added to the native Image Processor.  I don't think it's seen any updates / upgrades in decades.

Is it possible for one to add a delete option on the selection contextual task bar. I have a surface laptop studio and when it in tablet mode i do not have access to my keyboard, so it makes it hard to select and hit delete. I know there is clear in the edit menu but a shotcut would be great. If not maybe Adobe can think about it for their future updates. 

The TAB system is very poorly optimized imo, its very complicated when you have multiple tabs to move a tab wich is in one end to the other, if you miss with the mouse and take it and put it back in it goes all the way back to the end, the tab system should have the possibility to group tabs, color them, and in the same way I use CTRL + TAB to cycle through them, there should be an easy way to move them up or down the line at this point, it gets quite frustrating specially with files that have long filenames, the tab takes de hole screen

I'm not sure if it's a bug or a feature, but I want this to be changed. When a layer mask is selected, the Eyedropper tool doesn't pick up a color sample from the layer - you have to select the layer icon first.    It doesn't matter if it's an Adjustment or a regular pixel layer. Adobe, do you really think we want to pick up the color from the monochrome B&W mask?!I've never needed this for ages, but if I did, I'd first Alt+click to view the mask. Don't you think so?So, make the Eyedropper tool ignore the active layer mask. Many newbies will breathe a sigh of relief, but now they don't understand why the tool isn't working. As you know, by default the mask on any new adjustment layer is active. This mismatch causes problems.

Would it be possible to have thumbnails of the file image in the tab titles instead of the filename? I often work with 6+ images open at once in Photoshop.  Currently I can only see 3 or 4 tabs as the filenames are too long to allow more tabs. If the tabs were thumbnail images instead of filenames then there would be more space for the tabs in the workspace. 

Options bar cant be stuck on the bottom edge, so it just floats on the screen and because of that its hiding other stuff that is on the bottom edge plus when the contextual Task bar happens to be on top of the Options bar you can't see the Options bar and so on.So it will be very comfortable if it will be able to pin the Options bar on the bottom edge in the box so it's part of the full "frame"

A way to delete all unused image generations would be nice, especiallty in huge files where there are 100+ generations comprising the image.

Lorsqu'on utilise l'outil Tampon de duplication il est possible d'effectuer une rotaion de la source avec les touches Alt + Shift + 9 ou 0.Cependant, dans le panneau racourcis, je ne vois pas la possibilité de modifier cette combinaison de touche par une autre personnalisée.Est-il possible d'avoir cette option ?Merci

Why in 2019 do we not have the ability to turn off fonts from inside Photoshop? Why when I make a text layer must I scroll through a never ending list of fonts I do not need. Like Apple Braille? Or fonts in foreign languages that I will never use? Users should be given the option to hide fonts they do not want to see. How hard is that? How did Lorem ipsum place holder text get added as a feature before some better font management was added. I should not be forced into going and trying to delete system fonts from my operating system and risk ruining it.

The new Photoshop 2024 changes how gradients work, and while most of the changes are great, the "reverse" check box is a TERRIBLE implementation. In old gradients, the color picker controlled the direction of a gradient. If white was the foreground color and black was the background color, you'd draw a gradient from white to black. If you wanted a different direction, you'd just hit the X key on the keyboard and voila, your gradient behaves as you want it to. Now I have to navigate up to the "reverse" check box every damn time I want to swap it. WHY would this be a helpful change?! There was nothing wrong with the old functionality. This ONLY adds an extra step. PLEASE get rid of the dumb "reverse" check box and restore the old way it worked. Even in "classic gradient" mode it's still messed up. Ugh.

Would be cool to be able to group artboards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there any way Adobe could impliment a way to edit artboards easily like in Illustrator? I don't mean in terms of size changes, but in Illustrator I've found it really convenient when you can make as many artboards that you need, for example: creating social media carousels, and then you can go into the artboard tool and edit the spacing inbetween each board and how it's laid out. I was hoping Photoshop had a similar feature but it doesn't which makes it a bit more tedious when I do have to build out certain social graphics on there. If there's any way to add that to Photoshop, I'd love that

Seria interessante se fosse adicionada funções que permite uma edição das trilhas na time-line de forma mais rápida e eficiente, como redimensionar todas as trilhas ao redimensionar a trilha de um grupo de camadas, cortar trilhas com um comando de teclas, tradição de camadas (tais como fade-in fade-out) etc.Entre outra funcionalidade que aproxime mais a time-line do Photoshop de uma de um editor de vídeos. 

The purpose of this proposal is to request the addition of Network Device Interface (NDI) output functionality to the Photoshop software, specifically aimed at enabling the real-time output of the Photoshop canvas for projection mapping purposes. Projection mapping has become an integral part of stage productions, concerts, and other live events, as it allows artists to transform any surface into a dynamic canvas, enhancing storytelling and immersing audiences in captivating visual narratives. By incorporating NDI output capabilities solely for the Photoshop canvas, artists and designers will be empowered with a seamless workflow for creating and editing projection maps directly within the software. This integration will eliminate the need for external applications or complex workarounds, streamlining the production process and providing a more efficient solution for the entertainment/theatre industry. The key benefits and reasons to add NDI output of the Photoshop canvas are as f

Let's face it: we often rename our layers at the end of a project, when we know that a colleague or client will need access to our work 🫣Why not implement automatic layer renaming using AI?Today's generative AIs are capable of describing the content of an image, and therefore potentially of a layer? And we can force it to give a simplified name, to avoid long names.It might not be perfect, but for a composition of a hundred layers, it would save an incredible amount of time, whatever the software (Photoshop, After Effects, Illustrator...).And we'd no longer be ashamed to show off our layers 😛

In a K12 environment, we have students that use Certiport Compass and GMetrix certification testing software that requires specific versions of Adobe to be installed. In some of our schools, students do not know English as their primary language and test better in their native language. We would like for the ability to grant language changing access in Creative Cloud, without the ability to manage app updates. If they are given the ability to manage app updates, they can no longer revert to a version of the app that is compatible with the certification testing software.

Would be nice to be able to select several layers andf relink to new external file....

Hi all:   Are there any Gen Fill keyboard shortcuts yet? One to make the textbox for the prompt active and one to navigate the through the variations?   ~Barb

I want the old share option back!!!!! for me to be useless is the "share for revision" option; moreover, since photoshop, lightroom classic e lightroom are part of the same ecosystem, why they don't offer the same functions of sharing?And last but non least, why is not possible to switch from Photoshop to LRC or from LR to Photoshop without close the file and open the app?
