Photoshop

I love the stroke, i use it everyday, but there are things that keeps bugging me - maybe it's just me and if that's the chase then i have to live with it but.... 1) Could you make the outside stroke corners sharp, not round.. I always place the stroke on the inside to fix this but this shrinks what ever im framing / stroking a bit in size (cause the stroke "steals the space") 2) How about custom strokes? Use shapes, smart objects as strokes? 3) Multiple strokes? I know you can do this with a smart object, but why only one stroke, why not 2, 3? Would give a useful effect on shapes, text and so on? Thanks 🙂 Ps: Could you add rearrange layer effects so i could switch the effects simply by rearranging the order.. That would be cool..

Please add an option to enable overprint for the stroke fill of a shape. This is useful when you need the shape’s color to remain visible beneath a transparent stroke. It would also help simulate a contour highlight or gloss effect similar to the new iOS style.👉VIDEO  

When using the healing brush or patch tool it creates workflow friction to have to change the diffusion by having to select it in the option bar and drag the slider or select the number. This could be alleviated by changing the keyboard number pad behavior in these instances from master opacity change to diffusion. This would bring the healing brush more in line with its siblings and cousins (clone tool, brush, history brush) where keypad input changes the parameters of the tool rather than the master opacity while the tool is active.Master opacity change is rarely needed in this instance and is often the source of accidental input that is potentially destructive and not noticed until later. This seems like a change had it been implemeted from the start would never have been questioned. I think no one is clamoring for the healing brush to be the only brush tool where master opacity remains accessible in the keypad.

I am referring to the presets tab to the left of the single adjustments. When I use a preset it always adds a mask even with that setting turned off. I have my own presets I use for color correction and I most often do not need a mask when using the presets nor do I need it grouped. It add unnecessary items to the layers panel (masks and groups) and I like to name my layers.  

Adobe needs to fix the UI scaling in Photoshop. The Adobe ecosystem has different scaling for each and every app. Some work on high end Mac monitors - some do not.  Photoshop is an epic failure whereby the font size and icon sizes are miniscule. It is getting hard and harder to work in this app as the sizes are so offensively small. And PLEASE do not tell me to scale my monitor's resolution each and every time I want to use Photoshop - this mandates that after every session I have to manually re-set my desktop. This is NOT a workable solution. How is it that Illustrator can scale properly, ditto Bridge but Photoshop is a nightmare and everything is micro size. Please Adobe provide a fix this!!!!!!! It's been going on way too long!!!!!!!!!! Photoshop 26.1.0Sonoma 14.7.2Apple Studio Display 2560x1440 (default)

Current Generative fill is a breakthrough, but can you make it even more advanced? Here's what I mean. Now we just add a text prompt and a new object appears.What if we need to match an image + a certain object from another image?Not an abstract hat, glasses, watch, car, etc., but the real ones? So, the advanced mode should make the following steps in 1 click:match the scale, perspective, colors & lighting for a realistic composite. Output: a layer with a mask (in case we need to make some manual adjustments).

I would like to be able to make a really good high-quality selection of an object by identifying it by name. I can do this with various machine learning nodes for awhile now in ComfyUI. Even with the Quick Selection tool it can be time-consuming to make good selections. The Select Subject and Select Sky modes work pretty well (the former better than the latter). It would be great to say "Select the dog in the bottom left" and then Remove it using the Remove button

Problem / Current Behavior:Currently, when using the Object Selection Tool's "Select Subject" feature, Photoshop recalculates the subject selection every time the tool is applied or re-activated on a layer. This occurs even if the layer’s pixel data has not been modified since the last calculation. This results in redundant processing time and workflow interruption, as the user must wait for the AI to re-analyze static data.Proposed Solution / Desired Behavior:Photoshop should cache the "Select Subject" calculation data for a specific layer in temporary memory. IF the layer is untouched (no pixel or mask modifications): The tool should instantly recall the previous subject selection without re-processing. IF the layer is modified: The cache is cleared, and the subject is re-calculated as normal. Benefit: Performance: Eliminates unnecessary wait times for re-analysis (especially on high-res files or when using Cloud processing). Workflow: Allows for a snappier, more responsive exper

Hey Photoshop community 👋  !I’m Amybeth Menendez—Adobe Certified Instructor, print workflow specialist, and longtime Adobe Photoshop power user—and I’m teaming up with the #Photoshop team to collect real-world feedback on what would genuinely improve your Photoshop workflow.Not “someday maybe.”Not vague concepts.I mean the pain points, bottlenecks, and workflow tweaks you wish Photoshop just did better.Below are two examples of improvements that would make a huge difference in my day-to-day work—but this is about you and your workflows.Here’s how you can share your feedback:Post right here on #Adobe’s Photoshop Ideas forum OR Fill out this quick Google form:https://lnkd.in/e-zpHbBYBe specific.

Done live per channel . something like what patch tool does.     My bet its could be simple  frequency separation  trick  like splitting both whats beneath  and a layer  to low and high frequencies .   Then relacing the layer low freq to beneath low freq   with some slider to control the blure  . Could  be done in SBSAR  and substance designer probably if we could access to "beneath" in photoshop. 

Hi Team, With the integration of more AI models (Firefly and Third-Party Partner Models), managing generative credits has become a workflow bottleneck. Currently, we have to leave the app and check the web dashboard to see our balance, which breaks the creative flow. I would like to suggest two UI improvements: Real-time Balance: Display the remaining generative credits directly on the Contextual Task Bar or within the Generative Fill/Expand dialogs. Cost Transparency: Show exactly how many credits a specific generation will consume before we click "Generate," especially when using high-compute Partner Models (like Nano Banana or Video models) that might have different credit costs than standard Firefly. Knowing the "cost per click" and our total balance in-app would allow for much better resource management and a smoother professional experience. Thank you!

That term ultra  tells me nothing,   I want to figure out what resolution of sbsar material my 1024x4096 document  needs  to have this sbsar rasterized in same resulution .   Please make it clear . And BTW what setting I need so set currently?   Ultra or High?  

On macOS, the file chooser used in Export : Quick Export as PNG and Export : Save for Web does not provide a simple way to navigate back or up in the directory hierarchy.While the sidebar works, there is no basic Back or Up control comparable to native macOS file dialogs. This makes frequent exporting less comfortable and breaks established Finder navigation habits, especially when exporting multiple variants in sequence.Using a more native macOS style file dialog or adding basic back or up navigation would noticeably improve export workflow usability.

On photoshop.adobe.com, there is a Lens Distortion effect that includes a Chromatic Aberration setting. This effect behaves differently from Photoshop’s Iris Blur by subtly pulling and distorting the image toward the edges while applying blur, creating a more realistic lens effect. In desktop Photoshop, Iris Blur currently does not include chromatic aberration or this type of lens distortion behavior. I would love to see these controls added to Photoshop, either as part of Iris Blur or as a standalone Lens Distortion filter.  

Is so tremendously annoying  to delete first then add  each time I do subtle tweak and re-export  sbsar.    Let that delete>add be executed by saved action  at least.    And post a comprehensive guide please what nodes work what doesn't and make a special Photoshop template  in Designer please. 

I can't tell you how frustrating it is when you're working with a lot of artboards and you switch from one to another and the move tool constantly switches to artboard tool. Is there a way to prevent this behavior?   All settings people suggest on internet do not solve this.   - Deleting the shortcut doesn't do it. - Checking "Use Shift key for tool switch" doesn't do it - Unchecking "Spring-loaded tool shortcuts" does not do it.   Why would Adobe think that once I select an artboard, I want to have the tool selected? Why?? Adobe Why?!?!?   Hope you can see my frustration.   There probably should be a setting somewhere where tools don't auto switch on you.   Also.. give us the ability to dock the "contextual task bar" that thing is [cursing removed] annoying floating around, or always being in the wrong place.   Rant off.

Please Adobe , let us use SBSAR files done in Substance Designer  as custom filters  using  layer RGBA as a single input  at least.     So far only height to normal map working.  Anything more complex I try shows perfectly nothing.  I need  smooth curvature filter badly  in Photoshop.   I need no of those generative AI features , no Ai credits  at all   and now it seems its only thing Photoshop is developed for.      Please let us use Photoshop in capasity of Sampler . At least partly.   Because lets be honest , Sampler is slow , cluncky and inconvenient.  I don't even need real time render preview .  Just make SBSAR work in Photoshop.   chatGPT will do us the rest.  

I'd like to be able to dial in the amount of magnification I need for snapping, like with an option in Preferences. Sometimes, I want objects/layers to snap at 25%, sometimes at 400%. But always being locked to 400% is dodgy, at least for me.

When working with variable fonts in Photoshop, adjusting font properties such as weight, width, slant, and optical size currently requires opening the full Properties panel. This interrupts workflow, especially when working in full screen or distraction-free modes.I propose adding a dedicated Variable Font settings button directly to the contextual text task bar. This would allow users to quickly access and adjust variable font axes without leaving the canvas or opening side panels.Currently, the More Options menu on the contextual bar only includes spacing, bold, italic, and underline controls. Expanding this to include variable font properties would significantly improve efficiency and usability. 

In the Generate Image popup window, there is currently no option to select between different image generation models such as Nano Banana, Flux, or others. Users are limited to the Firefly Model without visibility or control over which model is being used unlike on Firefly Web.I propose adding a model selector directly within the Generate Image dialog, allowing users to choose the generation model based on their needs, such as realism, illustration style, speed, or experimental output.  

People have been asking for it for 7 years now that I have seen. I think it's a pretty basic feature that is needed within this community. It sure drives me insane having no concept of how accurately aligned my objects are on a project. why does EVERY other photo editing app have alignment feature 😂 

To the Photoshop Development Team,   I am writing to you as a professional Photoshop user to highlight a functional gap that I find critical for anyone managing large font libraries.   Currently, Photoshop integrates fonts from the AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Fonts folder by mixing them indiscriminately with Windows system fonts in the "Your Fonts" panel. This makes testing new characters extremely difficult and time-consuming when dealing with hundreds or thousands of installed fonts. My Proposal: It would be immensely helpful to include a specific section or filter (similar to the existing ones for "Serif," "Adobe Fonts," etc.) that allows users to display only the fonts manually loaded into the local Adobe folder.   In the current version (26.2), it is impossible to isolate these fonts as a group or bulk-add them to favorites after a search. This is because the system relies solely on internal metadata and does not provide a way to filter based on the source folder.  

Hello Adobe,In recent years, many online platforms have evolved and improved, with some now capable of supporting JPEG files that contain clipping paths. Currently, the only way to save a JPEG file with a clipping path is by using the “Save As” command. The “Export As…”and “Save for Web…” commands do not include clipping paths. I understand the explanation that these commands are intended for digital use only; however, as mentioned above, the world of graphic software has evolved, and designers now require more flexible options.The request is simple: we want to export multiple artboards to JPEG format while preserving the clipping paths we create. Thank you.

Please, PLEASE create a larger Generative AI Prompt field in Photoshop! A scalable option would be sufficient.

Having enjoyed photoshop on windows, I decided to have a go at trying it on IpadOS, using the Apple Pencil feels great. I am a fan of the general interface too, however, ( and please tell me I'm not the only one experiencing this ) I am unable to utilize the Apple Pencil pro fully. I checked the input slide in the apps settings and was excited to see It's built-in double tap feature there. It is supposed to be super handy in making workflow faster, switching to eraser, undo, etc. but for some reason it just won't respond to it when I try. Other art based apps already have this integrated and optimized. Was really, really hoping the photoshop app would follow. Would make for a much better experience.
