After a recent update, I can no longer permanently turn off “Show Extras” and layer/selection edges. I don’t want any edges, bounding boxes, etc showing. How can I turn these off globally and permanently like I could before? When I close all files, those options under View are greyed out.
On the single adjustments panel, I’d like to keep my most used tools at the top in the order I’ve used them for years.With the updates I understand putting new features at the top. It kills my flow though and I have to relearn where the tools are. Would like to keep things the way they were for years. please bring this feature back.
Yesterday morning it was working just fine at first, but by about the 10th photo I was editing, the Selection Brush’s add more setting stopped functioning. It performs like the add less. The add less works correctly. I cleared my browser cache, restarted my browser, tried a different browser, restarted my computer, and none of those helped. I asked the built in AI and they advised trying in an incognito window incase it was a plug-in interfering. Still no difference. I tried a different image, thinking maybe that was the issue. No change. The AI said that it is most likely a bug on your end, so here we are. Note: No, I do not have the ability to install the desktop version on this particular PC.
While Perspective Warp is active, allow users to hold the Z key to temporarily activate Photoshop’s Zoom tool. Releasing Z should immediately return control to Perspective Warp without committing, canceling, or resetting the current perspective grid.Photoshop normally supports holding Z for temporary zooming while another tool is active, but this behavior is unavailable in the Perspective Warp workspace. Although zoom percentages and some alternate navigation methods may be available, they are less direct and interrupt precise grid placement.Supporting hold-Z zoom would make Perspective Warp consistent with Photoshop’s normal navigation behavior and make it easier to position grid corners accurately on detailed images.
All of a sudden, when I open any image in Photoshop, the colors appear to be desaturated...In Photoshop only. When I open that same image in Window Picture Viewer, or Quicktimer, or even if I drag the image into a brower window, the colors appear fine. But in Photoshop, something is clearly wrong. Now, I can make color adjustments to the image, but when I save and reopen reopen it in another application, I can see that color changes have been made, but they still don't match what Photoshop is displaying.The images are RGB image...I've checked the color space setings in Photoshop, and they are the default (Edit > Color Settings: North American General Purpose 2 / RGB: sRGB IEC61966-2.1 / CMYK: US Web Coated (SWOP) V2, etc, etc). I also made sure View > Proof Setup was set to: Working CMYK. I even reset Photoshop to it's default settings (by holding down CTRL-ALT-SHIFT on launching Photoshop)...But the images still appear desaturated when I open them in Photoshop...So, I don't unde
I have tried to just suck it up that Photoshop is flooded with AI features now, but the addition of Generative AI features in Camera Raw, and more specifically that they have taken a hierarchical priority in the panels, is infuriating and borderline insulting from a consumer standpoint. Adobe is diluting the individual purposes of each of their apps by pushing duplicate AI features across every interface they can find. ACR is for editing RAW photos. Photoshop is for manipulating them. Why can you not keep it this way? These features are also in Photoshop, which I often use after editing in ACR. They are literally being shoved in our faces in every corner of every Adobe application. I use these features in Photoshop. I do not want them in ACR, because they are used for completely different things. I now have to alter my workflow and take extra time to AVOID using them because they are intentionally put in the way. If you want to crop your photo you now have to click twice instead of
A realistic shadow helps your subject feel grounded in the scene. In Photoshop, there are several ways to create one, depending on your subject and lighting. Based on workflows shared by experts in the Photoshop community, we've brought together a few of the most effective techniques here. Choose the method that best fits your workflow. Method 1: Using Generative AIAI can speed up the setup, but you will still get the best results by refining the shadow yourself.Use Select Subject or Remove Background to quickly isolate your object. Use Generative Fill to extend the surface where the shadow will fall. Learn more. You can also use Harmonize. It analyzes the lighting, color, and tone of the scene, and can also generate a matching shadow to help the subject feel more naturally integrated. Learn more. Refine the generated shadow manually using one of the methods above for the most realistic result. Method 2: Drop Shadow EffectThis is the quickest way to add depth and separation to elemen
Photoshop closes by itself about 10 minutes after startup without displaying any error message.I have reinstalled it several times already, but the problem still persists.

In the Canvas Size dialog, with “Relative to current dimension” checked, the width nor height can be set to 0. This is a big problem if you only want to change one dimension.Also, I will say that it is very annoying that the up and down arrow keys no longer increase and decrease the value by a whole number.
Really annoying bug. I spend 10 minutes going through my list of fonts in Photoshop, clicking the star next to fonts I want to remember as "favorites". Many of these fonts are installed via fonts.adobe.com. But Photoshop keeps turning off the "favorite" star for many (but not all) of my font selections. I think I've figured out the cause: If I start Photoshop shortly after logging in, before the Adobe Creative Cloud magic has had time to activate all my fonts, the fonts that are not yet activated don't exist yet (as far as Photoshop is concerned), and they lose their "favorite" star. Once the star is turned off by this bug, it stays off until I go back into Photoshop (after the fonts have all been loaded) and turn the star back on again.
Issue summary: A smart object produces unexpected behaviour when dragging a smart object with polar coordinates applied to a new document depending on where you drop it off on the canvas. Product and version: 27.8.0 Operating system: Windows 11 Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a square document 2. create a gradient (or any other content) and turn it into a smart object 3. Apply the polar coordinates filter 4. drag and drop the smart object to a new document 5. depending on where you let go with your mouse on the canvas, the filter outputs different results Expected result: same output as the document the object was copied from Actual result: result depends on placement on canvas, which can’t be changed by repositioning the smart object. double-clicking the smart object also does not help. it seems like the polar coordinates filter is stuck to the coordinates where you let the mouse go.

With todays 4k monitor settings Photoshop worlspace the Menu Bar, Options Bar, Tools Panel and Panels Area is so tiny it can’t be read. Using the options choiced of enlarging type and the 200% increase doesn’t make any difference. The only way to actually increase the zize of these is to go to the Windows settings and modify the display setting. The problem with that is it makes Photoshop bigger but everything else is bigger too.Give me a slidebar so I can sdjust the size of these elements so it works perfectly for me. I’m betting a lot of long time users are aging like me and need this help. As a LONG time user of Photoshop, please don’t force me to using AI programs like Grok.

I have been using PS since 1999 and these new versions [cursing removed] are unusable. I have spent days trying to solve erros and bugs. Why did you nuke such a well oiled software. almost every update since 2018 [cursing removed].... why is there no alternative to PS [cursing removed]. why break something that worked so well decades ago
When saving a Photoshop PDF, add a checkbox to "Create Acrobat Layers from Top-level Layers" so that viewers of the PDF in Acrobat can toggle on/off the Optional Content Group (OCG) "Layers” created, just as users of Illustrator and Photoshop can. The benefit to the user would be feature parity with Illustrator and Photoshop in creating a PDF with OCG.
Heya adobe collective.I somehow accidently created these new visual guides and i cant work out to get rid of them except by hiding extras and its not a fix and they keep coming back. I know its something simple and something new.
update from 25.12 to 26.10surprise to see the instability of the [ remove tool ] after 3 to 4 stroke photoshop freeze and after 10s a message appear saying not enough RAM memories.. any workaround ? I have 64g RAM PS I did a clean uninstall of the previous photoshop version befor einstalling the new version 26.10
I ran tests on all of this the last 2 days. Previous AI moves before activating the Credentials are not logged anywhere. The exif data does show layers being added but not if it was AI assisted or generated layer. The record of Everything AI in the process, only will show if creds, activated and .c2paws created. Shame it can’t be included into the Photoshop file and then in the exif data, but I can only assume the data following is too much. Regardless I see this system being totally problematic. Since smart objects are contained in the psd and Psb format, I would assume it is possible to get this info into the container at some point? Interested to hear adobe experts views on this..
Hello everyone.In the past, I would shoot RAW, and I would also shoot a RAW file of the Passport Photo Color Checker for camera calibration. Inside Adobe Camera Raw, I created a DNG file, and I used the Color Checker Passport to generate a calibration profile, which I saved in this folder: C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\CameraProfilesLater, inside Camera Raw under Camera Calibration, I would select the profile name created from the Passport calibration.It seems that Camera Calibration inside Camera Raw is different now. In other words, I can’t select my custom calibration profile anymore.Thanks.
Bonjour à la communauté et à l'équipe Adobe,Je rencontre un problème critique et récurrent de crash instantané au lancement des versions récentes de Photoshop 2026 (notamment la v27.7). L'application plante au moment du splash screen sans afficher de message d'erreur à l'écran.L'Observateur d'événements Windows (Event 1000, Application Error) indique systématiquement la même défaillance : Application défaillante : Photoshop.exe (Version 27.7.0.11) Module défaillant : ucrtbase.dll (Version 10.0.26100.8875) Code d'exception : 0xc0000409 (STATUS_STACK_BUFFER_OVERRUN) Offset du bug : 0x00000000000a527e Système d'exploitation : Windows 11 (Build 10.0.26100) Le comportement anormal / Le problème :Lorsque je combine une réparation des redistribuables Visual C++ et un reset complet des préférences, la dernière version de Photoshop refonctionne normalement pendant environ 24 heures.Cependant, au bout d'une journée (sans modification particulière du système, sans installation de nouveaux
I recently compared Firefly, Gemini Nano, and FLUX 1 Kontext Pro inside Photoshop. One gives me ideas in seconds with different generations vs the time it takes to draw one sketch or composed one. It’s an incredible power, but I wonder if we’re losing our creative "gut feeling" in the process. Design has changed for many. In Photoshop, AI has turned the canvas into an interactive partner. As designers, we are no longer just creators; we are curators of a conversation. We’ve never had this much power at our fingertips, but does speed equal mastery? I want to know: Does that speed make you feel like a creative powerhouse, or does it make you wonder who’s really in the driver’s seat? Please drop a comment with your experience! ~ Love to hear how your process or thoughts has shifted—No right or wrong answers here—just your honest take!
Adobe Creative Cloud isn't allowing me to download Photoshop or InDesign on my laptop because it says I don't meet the system requirements. However, when I click the three-dot menu for more options, I don't see the option to download older versions.My PC is running Windows 11, has 8 GB of RAM, and an Intel processor (Intel Celeron 4205U)
Bonjour, Je fais de la retouche photo et j’utilise régulièrement LIGHTROOM qui fonctionne parfaitement.Depuis quelques temps je suis passé sur PHTOSHOP et CAMERA RAW mais celui-ci plante régulièrement avec le message suivant : “Le processeur graphique a rencontré une erreur irrécupérable. En raison d’une erreur d’exécution, l’accélération GPU a été désactivée pour le reste de la session”. Ca n’a pas l’air de planter sur PHOTOSHOP.PHOTOSHOP et CAMERA RAW sont à jour.J’ai regardé sur le web et appliqué toutes les astuces ainsi que les recommandations Adobe mais rien n’y fait. Ma carte graphique est bien compatible (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 8 Go de mémoire vidéo - avec les pilotes mis à jour et les paramétrages pour PHOTOSHOP réglés). J’ai une tour avec un processeur INTEL i7-4700 et 64 Go de RAM, un écran 27” ASUS QHD(2560x1440). Auriez-vous une solution ?Merci de votre aide
