 Any one knows why this screen has invalid data?

You have removed the ability to change the pixel width or height of an image unless it is to be resampled. This is nuts! You often need to open and image and change its dimension or PPI value and NOT resample it. You want to do this in PIXELS. Why don’t you ask a few users before yanking things. I am going to have to use another app for this basic ability.

Hi everyone,We are currently updating the product images on our website https://www.daltaios.com/, but we noticed they look quite pixelated on Retina displays and newer mobile screens.Should I be exporting all image assets at 2x resolution directly from Photoshop, or is there a better modern workflow to ensure crisp visuals while keeping the file sizes small for fast loading times?Any advice on compression tools or responsive image practices would be greatly appreciated!

I am experiencing 3 problems with photoshop When I add a text and I want to go to filter gallery and add HALFTONE to add lines on my text It doesn’t apply it  All of my blend modes when i hover on them it either turn them white or black and that's it  when I want to make a text transparent after I added effect (changing the R,G,B Channels to make a cool effect) it instantly turn it black and if i want to make the background black or other colors it fully cover the entire text. Its so weird because previously it worked perfectly but when I try to do another one this happen. I tried everything from Uninstalling photoshop, Adobe cleaner tool, to graphics card updates but nothing would work  

When printing in Photoshop the default resolution is 240 dpi. I would like to increase this to 300 dpi and would be grateful for advice on how this can be done.

First, I really like this feature. Having actions available as buttons with assigned shortcuts can significantly speed up repetitive workflows.A few suggestions:Shortcut conflicts: If a shortcut is already in use, Photoshop should show which command or action is using it and allow users to reassign that shortcut directly from the conflict dialog instead of simply blocking the assignment. Editable save settings: For save-related actions (PNG, JPEG, TIFF, PSD, etc.), it should be possible to open and edit the associated save settings directly from this panel, including compression, transparency, ICC profiles, metadata, layers, and other format-specific options. Better keyboard navigation: Pressing Enter should save changes immediately. Pressing Esc should return to the previous screen. The entire interface should be fully keyboard-accessible. Basic UX. Save button placement: The Save button sits at the bottom of the panel. Consider moving it higher, duplicating it at the top, or relying

Is there a way to turn off the sample text in the Photoshop Character palette? I thought I had this one solved by just setting the "Number of Recent Fonts to Display" to "0". This tactic has worked for years and it was working but now the previews are back even with the 0 recent fonts set. I can't figure out how turn them off and I’m about ready to uninstall the most recent Photoshop updates. 

I have a new install of Adobe Creative Cloud and Adobe Photoshop. Before I did anything, I tried using the brush tool to paint a line. I discovered that at 100% hardness, the brush tool does not fill the circle that represents the brush all the way to the edge. See attached photos. (1) The first photo shows the brush filling black paint on a gray background. You can see that the paint does not fill in to the edge of the circle. The brush is set to 100% hardness, 100% Opacity, 100% Flow, 10% Smoothing. Default setup from Adobe install. (2) The second photo shows the Settings for the Cursor in Preferences. Again, all default from Adobe. Why is this not filling the circle 100% and how can I change this? Thank you! 

My genereative ai credits are disappearing without me using any ai. I opened a jpg in photoshop, went to the adjustments panel and manually used the sliders to adjust the levels. When I opened Photoshop I had 34/1000 credits left. When I saved out my jpg after adjusting the levels I had 33/1000 credits. I did not use any form of the generative ai.Additionally when I do use the generative ai to extend one photo it uses far more than one credit. This morning I started with 60/1000 credits. I opened the jpg I wanted to extend. I used my crop tool to extend all sides to where I wanted them and hit generate to fill in. I flattened my image, saved and closed, my credits went all the way down to 34/1000.

For well over a year I've had this issue and I thought at first it was a bug that would be corrected in the next update. A ridiculous amount of updates later (seriously, why so often?) and its still happening. I use keyboard shortcuts for tool selection, most commonly the clone stamp, the brush, and the spot healing or remove tool. when I hit the keyboard shortcut to change from remove tool to clone stamp (for example) it switches to the clone stamp tool for less than a second then back to the remove tool. Sometomes I have to hit the shortcut three or four times to get the selection to stick. Its so consistently bad that I've started hitting the shortcut four times by default to make sure. It's a huge time and attention drain. Anybody got any fixes?

Having an issue converting OCIO files from scene referred AcesCG to display referred ICC profiles in Photoshop 2025.  From reading the PS documentation I see that Edit > Duplicate to Image Profile command does this, as it offers all the available working ICC profiles as the target settings for the output. If I set the output space to sRGB then then conversion matches fine, but if I select any other RGB profile as the target (such as Adobe RGB, ProPhoto etc) then the colours get too saturated ?  Looks like the command preserves the sRGB values but just display them as Adobe RGB/ProPhoto colours,  i.e. the same result as Assign Profile from sRGB > Adobe RGB etc in an ICC workflow. and the resulting saturation/hue shifts. Any ideas why this is happening and If this is the correct behaviour and if so, why bother offering other output ICC output profiles and labelling it as a conversion if the gamut is always sRGB ?   

I updated Photoshop from 27.7 to 27.8 via the Creative Cloud desktop app.When I launched PS the home screen showed “recent” images which I had last worked on three months ago, and my settings were similarly backdated.I fixed my setup by rolling back to 27.7 and restored preferences from before the update (thanks to Time Machine) but it’s cost me an hour’s work.macOS Tahoe 26.5.2 (25F84), Apple M2 Max
