I've been working with PixelLab for creating simple graphics and text based designs, and I'm trying to find a better workflow for taking those designs into Photoshop for more advanced editing.I'm particularly interested in keeping the image quality as good as possible when moving from PixelLab to Photoshop. I'm also wondering whether it's better to export as PNG, use a higher resolution canvas, or use another format before opening the design in Photoshop.I've been working with PixelLab resources and versions as well, and came across PixellabHub while looking for resources related to the app: For anyone who uses both PixelLab and Photoshop, what workflow would you recommend for getting the best quality and flexibility when moving a design from one to the other?
Going to go back to the previous version of PS until there is a way to turn this off or it's changed or eliminated. Seems someone at Adobe forgot that holding "Alt" while clicking a layer group is how we collapse/expand layers! Now when I try to collapse a layer group the whole thing zooms???? No bueno, Adobe.
I updated Photoshop 2025 yesterday which apparently came with a camera raw update. The denoise in camera raw stops after 15-25 percent then does not reactivate on the raw file when selected.
Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.4.0 2Operating System: Windows 10 64-bit When I go to Image → Canvas Size, the default is always pixels. I want it to be inches. Note: I have checked in preferences, units and measures, and the default is inches. Also when I go to image → Image size, the default is in fact inches, which is what I expect. Is the default unit for image → canvas size now different? Is there a different place to set it? thanks
I recently downloaded the latest Photoshop update and now none of my drivers/processors are compatible to allow me to edit in camera raw. After digging around and trying to update drivers, I realized I need windows 11 and will have to buy a new laptop to be compatible with the new update. Can I uninstall the update and install an older version? Which version is the last to work well with windows 10?
Last week it began returning unexpected results when tasked with fixing a small area. I noticed two things:First: it can’t help but hallucinate. It will reliably return a snake, a bow and arrow, a jar of something or what not. Usually in situations were it used to reliably fill in a texture perfectly and out perform Firefly Fill & Expand.Second, it seems to have lost the ability to seamlessly retian texture over a small area. Often it comes back mangled or oversharpened if it doesn’t have an ice pick or a toaster thrown in.Anyone else seeing this? It seemed like a pretty sudden server side thing so please please please don’t ask me to post 10 pages of my system info efectively killing this thread.
I was using the Filter Aberration parametric filter extensively and suddenly stopped working. I’ve tried everything I can think of to get it working, but it just won’tAll of the other parametric filters work just fine, but when I click on the Filter Aberration Chromatic nothing happens, over and over.I’ve tried all of the following:Reset preferences Delete preferences Restore Default Filters from the Parametric Filters flyout menu Upgrade to newest version of Photoshop (currently on 27.9.1) Uninstall and reinstall Photoshop Update my graphics drivers to the most current (RTX 4070 Laptop w/ drivers dated July 22, 2026) I’ve tried on numerous files, including low res files Plenty of web searches looking for solutionsI can open and edit the Filter Aberration Chromatic properties on my existing files, but I can’t ever seem to get it working with new files.Is there anything else I can try?Any temporary files or something that the parametric filters use that maybe I can delete? Looking in th
After the 27.5 update, when Photoshop is closed, it stays active in RAM. The same applies to opening and closing individual documents. I have 32 GB of RAM, and if I open several documents—for example, using up 16 GB of RAM—and then close one of them, the consumed memory does not decrease; it remains in memory. It gets to the point where, after an hour of work, RAM usage reaches 29–30 GB. And after closing Photoshop, the memory is not freed until you manually terminate the process in Task Manager. Also, until you end the process via Task Manager, you cannot restart Photoshop. I recorded this issue on video, which can be viewed here: https://youtu.be/j0nvMCQoCis System Info: Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.5.0 20260323.r.13 dee573e x64 (final, Release)Number of Launches: 165Operating System: Windows 11 64-bitVersion: 11 or greater 10.0.26200.8246System architecture: AMD CPU Family:15, Model:1, Stepping:0, AVX2, HyperThreadingPhysical processor count: 6Logical processor count: 12Processor sp
When using the remove tool , as in these two example images, the new image information created by the remove tool is more pixelated and lower rez than the image being edited. See the before and after images where I am removing the road and Semi. I have used REMOVE for years, and this is a new problem. Any ideas for how to fix this?
This bug has been reported before, but persists, making editing arduous. It only became a problem recently, so I feel it is a version issue, say after 25 or so. I have not downgraded as of yet, but may have no choice. After a few touch ups (nothing major, like skin blemish), the tool will freeze and then memory use will ramp up until entirely maxed out (64 GB). I see it in the Task Manager graph. After about two minutes (if a person was willing to wait), a dialog box pops up saying there is no more memory to complete task. When closed, I can save the image and proceed. This has happened each and every time I edit an image and I cannot go more than 5 uses before this happens. I contacted support over the phone and was told to increase memory usage under performance. I does not help and resetting preferences also does not help. This issue needs to be fixed as I feel the remove tool is one of the core tools users now rely on. If it would be helpful to d
The Remove Tool freezes during processing and leaves the pink Remove Tool overlay stuck on screen. Photoshop becomes unusable and will not accept normal input.This has happened three times in two days. It happened once yesterday and twice today.Clicking anywhere in the Photoshop window only triggers the Windows exclamation sound. Alt Tab does not show any hidden Photoshop dialog or error window. The application appears trapped in the Remove Tool operation.This happened during active production work, after a significant amount of unsaved retouching. I work on very large PSB files but have 128 GB RAM.Steps to reproduce:Open a PSB file. Use the Remove Tool on an image area. Wait for the Remove Tool to process. Photoshop freezes with the pink Remove Tool overlay still visible.This does not always freeze. It only freezes randomly and unfortunately after a significant amount of other retouching work. Expected result:The Remove Tool should complete normally. If it fails, the operation should
v27.8 update installed today on Windows 11 PC. So far I have experience two issues:The remove tool now works very slowly. (As a separate issue I have been having problems with the remove tool for some time. The remove does not always work, leaving instead a blank area the exact shape of the area covered buy the tool and I get a pop up from AMD (graphic card) inviting me to report the problem. I have done so repeatedly but never get any sort of response from them. If I restart Photoshop or the PC the problem goes away for a short time but then reoccurs). Hue/ Saturation now displays incorrect colours some of which appear to be inoperative.
Hello,I just signed up for the student free trial which includes photoshop. I purchased the free trial so that I could fix some blurred photos. I looked at the instructional videos that are provided through Photoshop, and the only video that popped up on how to fix a blurred photo was a video showing how to use the Shake Reduction tool. However, I was just informed by an Adobe representitive that the Shake Reduction tool was removed from the 2024 version. I would like to suggest that the video for the Shake Reduction tool be removed from the 2024 version, or at least have it explain that the Shake Reduction tool is only available in older versions. For me, knowing that would have saved me a lot of time and frustration, as that tool is the only one I was needing to use and that is why I purchased the free trial. P.S I am an amature when it comes to Photoshop, any suggestions on other ways to fix a blurred photo would be appreciated.
며칠 전, 노트북 윈도우를 다시 설치하고 어도비 크리에이티브도 다시 깔았습니다.그런데 어도비 프로그램 최신버전(2026)이 현재 제 노트북 사양과 맞지 않아설치를 할 수 없습니다.(윈도우 재설치 전까지는 2022나 2023 버전을 사용했습니다) 이에, 구버전이라도 설치하기 위해 방법을 찾아봤는데이전 버전의 Creative Cloud 앱 설치 | Download and Install문제는, 예시 이미지에 나온 ‘기타 버전’ 설치 항목이 제 클라우드에서는 보이지 않습니다. 아래가 제 클라우드 ‘앱’ 항목의 점 세 개를 클릭할 때 나오는 옵션입니다. 당장 포토샵을 사용해야 하는데 상황이 이러니 매우 답답합니다.2022나 2023 버전을 설치할 수 있는 방법이 또 있을까요.
Hi would you please make the Photoshop font browser/font list fully support the selected Dark UI theme?Currently, Photoshop's font browser still uses a light/white background for the font list, even when Photoshop is set to the Dark Theme.For comparison, Adobe After Effects already displays the font browser using a dark interface when the Dark Theme is enabled. The attached screenshot shows the difference between the two applications.Why this is necessary:Reduces eye strain, particularly when working in low-light environments or for extended periods. Improves comfort and accessibility for users who intentionally use the Dark Theme. Provides a more consistent Dark Theme experience throughout Photoshop and brings Photoshop's font browsing experience more in line with other Adobe applications

Hi Adobe Community!My name is Jerry, and I’m new to this platform.

I’m excited to connect with others and improve my skills with your help!Thank you!Jerry
I have reached a breaking point with Adobe software. It is now using so much memory any time that any time I launch an application I can barely get any work done at all. The apps are slow, they lag, they stop responding. I can’t have more than one Adobe app open at a time.Even now, with InDesign sitting idle it is using 2.09 GB. And Photoshop with a file open that is 181 mb is using over 30 GB!!This started when I upgraded to Tahoe. The memory problems and slow downs were unbelieveble so I switched back to Sequoia. That seemed to ersolve the problem for a short while but it is now worse than it has ever been.Please let me know what kind f info you need from me to help with this issue. I’m posting some screen shots that might or might not be helpful--I’m just guessing because I don’t know.Please help!
Tell me the which one is best
# Generative Upscale returns solid black layer — Desktop only, Web works## SummaryGenerative Upscale in Photoshop 27.9.1 (macOS) always produces a solid black pixellayer*with a white layer mask. The "Original" layer is fine. Affects all models(Firefly Upscaler, Topaz Gigapixel, Bloom).The exact same account, image and scale factor works correctly onphotoshop.adobe.com — so the cloud service, the account and the generative creditsare demonstrably fine. The defect is in the desktop application.Generative Fill works perfectly in the same desktop app (both Firefly and NanoBanana). Only Generative Upscale is broken. The relevant difference: Generative Fillworks inside the existing document, Generative Upscale creates a **new document**.## Environment| | ||---|---|| Photoshop | 27.9.1 — build 20260803.r.1 65900e1 || macOS | 26.3 (build 25D125) || Hardware | MacBook Pro, Apple M2 Pro, 19 GPU cores || GPU | Metal 4, 12.713 MB GPU-accessible RAM || Displays | tested on built-in XDR, LG, Dell —

My photoshop files are all dated 1970. Instead of 2008 and on!
I have been using the latest (V27) which seems to be more reliable but is a resource hog. I went looking around for things to stop to give Photoshop as much of the machine as possible because is taking FOREVER to do anything. I see 13 “Helper” aps for Creative Cloud running which near as I can tell only are there to make sure I paid my fees. I killed the 4 Acrobat helpers already.Question: how many of these background apps can I kill and still use photoshop? I am just retouching pictures. No cloud. No collaboration. And yes I paid my annual rental fee. The only fancy feature I am using is the “beta” photo restore filter.
Hi Adobe Photoshop team,my name is Gianpiero Veronio. I use Photoshop regularly for graphic and cover-art work, and while working on a recent project I noticed a reproducible geometry/rendering issue with the Line Tool.I was able to reproduce the behavior consistently, so I prepared a short report with screenshots and technical notes in case it may be useful to the Photoshop engineering team.Issue summaryWhen a dashed stroke and an arrowhead are used together on a Line shape, the line becomes visibly tilted even though the Transform rotation remains at 0.00°.Steps to reproduceCreate a line as a Shape using the Line Tool. Set the stroke width to 10 px. Apply a dashed stroke. Make sure the line rotation is exactly 0.00°. Enable an arrowhead on the line.Actual resultThe dashed line becomes visibly inclined while the Transform panel still reports 0.00° rotation.Expected resultAdding an arrowhead should affect the arrowhead geometry only. A line at 0.00° rotation should remain horizontal.I
Minimal reproduction:on a secondary display, an sp-picker's menu never appears and cannot be used. the sp-picker itself takes focus and shows its focus outline, but the menu is never painted.The panel instruments the DOM at the moment the menu should be visible. Every property we can read is identical on the working and failing displays: the menu is in the document, computed-visible, and correctly sized. Only the painting differs.Observed in:Photoshop 27.9.1 UXP manifest v5 Windows 11Full bug report here:https://forums.creativeclouddeveloper.com/t/bug-sp-picker-not-selectable-on-secondary-monitor-includes-repro-code/12096/3full video example plugin code & `.ccx` plugin file more-detailed debug notes
