Photoshop

im getting a bit desperate, i dont know what to do..Since this morning, any version of Photoshop i try keeps getting laggier and laggier. It started with the scrubby zoom, then the brush, the ruler etc.Despite that, my pc is running well ( 32Go RAM, 8Go VRAM ). I tried to follow many guides and tried this so far: resetting the preferences; changing the options in the performance tab (including enabling and disabling gpu mode); closing other apps; cleaning my pc from eventual craps ( there’s 150Go of free data on my driver right now); reinstalling the Photoshop; using other Photoshop versions; reinstalling my gpu drivers;The lags keep getting worse and worse (linked a video to show the lag) . I have no ideas what to do to fix this problems, it’s especially problematic since i use Photoshop daily.  Thank you in advance :)

Hi, So I already saw someone else ask a similar question however the Adobe people who replied were not at all helpful on that post so I am going to ask myself and make it super clear so that there is no confusion. So here is my problem: I've never had this issue before. I am using the most updated version of Photoshop. I am trying to create a singular line using the line tool. Whenever I use the line tool, it turns it into a very thin rectangle. It is deceiving at first because it looks like one line, however, it provides 6 points overlapping each other, which indicates that it is a rectangle (cause it is) I reset the tool already but it still does this.  I want to specifically use a dashed line, however because the line tool creates a rectangle, the dashed line looks funny because it is essentially two lines overlapping each other.  I have seen moderators say that the tool has always been like this, which I absolutely beg to differ and I am sure other art

Depuis la dernière mise à jour de Windows, j'ai des problèmes avec Photoshop. Lorsque je clique sur le tableau du dossier pour ouvrir un fichier, Photoshop se bloque. Impossible d'ouvrir une image. Il est nécessaire que je me tourne vers Alt+Supp pour le contraindre. De la même manière, lorsque j'enregistre un travail, quelquefois,  il me refuse l’accès au dossier d'enregistrement et se bloque. Donc, je force la fermeture pour perdre mon travail. Je vous prie de trouver une solution à ce problème. Dans le cas contraire, je serais contraint d’annuler mon abonnement.

This icon keeps glowing even when I hide the whole bar, I keep looking for options to disable it but haven’t been lucky 

OS: Windows 11 Pro version 25H2GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 driver version 596.49Primary display is an HDR OLED that has been calibrated via Portrait Displays Calman. Windows color management settings for this display are set to “Use my settings for this device” with my sRGB profile assigned for ICC and my HDR profile assigned for HDR.Windows HDR rendering is enabled system-wide, and my display is set to my calibrated HDR output mode. NVIDIA control panel is set to output 12 bits per channel full range RGB.I know Windows HDR rendering has a bad reputation, but this setup had been working without issue for two straight years.Unfortunately, Photoshop update 27.5 (and all more recent updates newer than 27.5) have broken sRGB rendering. Viewing SDR sRGB content in Photoshop using any version ≥ 27.5, the sRGB colors render incorrectly, much too dark.My Photoshop “Color Settings” have my sRGB profile assigned for my working RGB space.Disabling GPU acceleration completely in Photoshop’s “Perf

I was working on a project and I don’t know if I pressed something while I was choosing a font, but now the little previews of my font styles won’t show up anymore. Now I have to guess what the font style is like because I can’t find a solution for it. Does anyone know if it can show up again??

I am using M5 Pro Macbook Pro and it always crashes PS when i try to open my raw images - for HDR blending. It did work until the latest update, but since I updated PS and LrC, it just does not want to do it. Fix would be urgently needed for me, since I have tons of images that must be edited asap. Please fix this bug. I tried everything at this point, even sent reports on it too through the crash report.

I just updated my Adobe Photoshop to Adobe Photoshop 2026 on my HP Envy x360 2 in 1 labtop 14. I realized quickly I can't remove backgrounds or select a subject. For when I select subject the text comes up saying: " Couldn't find a a subject to select, there might not be prominent objects in the image", even though clearly there is a subject. For the when I want to use remove background it says: "Couldn't find background when there is clearly a background.

Quando eu termino de editar a imagem e vou exportar pra salvar no PC, não exporta. Carrega em 95% mas não exporta a imagem 

It truly drives me nuts that often when I click on a layer (in the layers panel) to then do something directly to that layer on the canvas, it many times will start working on / activate a different overlapping or adjacent layer, most times an adjustment layer. But of course it could be any layer that happens to be in the same vicinity. Is there any way to deactivate this? Photoshop didn't used to do this. You had to click on a layer (in the panel) to change it or work on it. My workaround is to temporarily lock or hide the layer I don't want to accidentally select, but it is silly that I have to do that. Whoever thought that clicking on a layer (to change to another layer) directly on the canvas was a good idea, probably doesn't actually USE photoshop on a regular basis. I cannot be the only person who hates this (?) Help!

Hi Adobe Community,We are designing tour banner images and promotional graphics for our booking portal {Link removed by MOD}  using Photoshop.What are the best export settings to maintain high visual quality while keeping file sizes minimal for fast web loading?Thanks for your suggestions!

This is happening with the History, Clone and Eraser tools…  

The Topaz upscaler is not working and is giving an error for the last 24 hours.I tried 2x and 4x.The interesting part is that other upscalers aren't working either. I have Adobe credits. The image is royalty-free.I couldn't solve my problem at all.  

When I use the Lasso Tool in Photoshop version 27.3.1 the selection appears to the right of where my Lasso Tool is pointed. In the included picture I started to at the top left of the dog leash and dragged down on the left, then over to the other side of the leash where it attaches to the dog collar, then up along the right side and finally across the top to the left side of the leash. You can see the selection show where I started, but completes on the far right of the leash. My Performance option “Use Graphics Processor” is checked. Note: I’ve unchecked this option and the problem is still the same. History States set to 50Cache Levels: 6Cache Tile Size 1028KAdvanced Graphic Processor Settings:Use OpenCL checkedAnti alias Guides and Paths: Checked30 Bit Display: UncheckedGPU compositing; Checked  My computer specs: CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 7900GPU: NVidia RTX 5060 ti 16 GB RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance DDR5 RAM 96GB (2x48GB) 6400MHz CL32 Intel XMP iCUE  

Has anyone here tried the new AI Assisted Editor in Photoshop 27.10?I’ve been exploring the new AI workflow, and it seems like a really convenient option for quick edits. I’m especially interested in how other designers are using it for everyday creative work.The natural-language editing approach looks like it could save quite a bit of time. Would love to hear what everyone is trying with it so far.

How do I enable Clipping Warning for the New Light Adjustment Layer?

Using Mac OS, I am manually creating an Instagram Reel in Photoshop by stacking multiple images as layers and then converting them into frames using the Timeline panel. However, despite following the correct steps, I do not see the option "Make Frames from Layers" in the Timeline panel menu. Additionally, the "+" (Add Frame) button is missing. This issue has occurred multiple times. The first time, I resolved it by completely rebuilding the file, but now that the issue has reappeared, I believe I am missing something fundamental about how Photoshop handles this process.  I haven't been able to recreate the success from the last time this happened.  Steps Taken & Expected Behavior I am following these steps: 1. Prepare the Document   - Create a new 1080 x 1920 px, 300 dpi document.   - Load multiple images into separate layers using **File > Scripts > Load Files into Stack.   - Ensure the background is blurr

Could someone please help me figure out how to tint this plain maple wood so it matches the stained wood shown next to it in the attached image?I want to preserve the natural wood grain rather than wash it out. Ideally, I’m looking for a way to tint the maple so the existing grain remains visible while taking on the same color and appearance as the stained wood.  

Enabling 'Spacing' causes this glitch. However, if I uncheck 'Spacing', I can't draw continuous lines or make smooth, connected brush strokes with my mouse.

When I click on text or image layer, the boundry box is tightly fit around the text or opject. As soon as I click the edge of the boundry to expand the text, photoshop changes the slection and includes a much larger area with blank pixels. I used to be able to click and hold a bounry edge and drag to the new size. Now when i click the edge, it expands and then I have to click the new expanded edge to resize.Is there a fix for this? It is incredibly frustrating when trying to align edges. Why can I no longer just drag an edge without it resizing the boundary? If I group the text (Ctrl +G) it will not add the blank pixles when dragging the edge but thats crazy to do for every text layer. What is happening!?

When trying to open Photoshop (any version) the splash screen opens as usual but when it goes away nothing happens, no background task or anthing, Photoshop completely crashes. The splash sceen always dissapears at the same mesage, roughly translated from german it says “calculating memory/storage”.

Selection Brush tool doesn't work on grayscale pages, didn’t tried all the other modes, but I’m sure it doesn’t work on grayscale pages.The history shows I used the Selection Brush tool, but no selection is made at all, all other selection ways works just fine, including quick mask mode.

Thanks to all who took part in our last, ‘Holy Island’, challenge. There were some great entries that showed the imagination and skill of this community.The regulars in these challenges will know that sometimes we start with a scene and sometimes an object. This week we have two starter images, the first with a magnifying glass and a paper. The second is the same magnifying glass but with a transparent background. You can use either, or both, to start your entry. The scene was created and rendered in Blender 3D with Adobe Substance 3D Designer and Adobe Substance 3D Painter used for textures.How imaginative can you get with this simple scene, or object?The “rules”:Use the starter image as at least part of your own image entry. Anything goes, as long as it meets the forum rules on decency, copyright, etc. Anyone, and everyone, is welcome to have a go, whether you are a complete beginner or a Photoshop expert. This is not just for our forum “regulars”. The challenge is not limited to Pho

Recently upgraded to 4K monitors under Windows 11 (i9, 128Mb) with an NVidia RTX 4060.  The speed at which Photoshop operated seems significantly improved.  Am I just imaging things?  It got me to wondering if the software is written for the latest (well near latest) and greatest hardware and has capabilities to adjust down for what is considered a reasonable level of backward compatibility.  Figured some of the gurus herein might have an understanding of how the interactions are actually taking place.  Thanks for any insights.
