Hi Team, the new FF gen fill and expand is now producing awful results even when trying to add extra pixels/height in a (simplish) yellow/gold background with a slight gradient. see example attached - trying to continue the image to fill in the selected area...the 6 results are terrible and no where near what is desired.  This was seamless before and never encountered until yesterday.  Has it changed? is there a new version of this? if so then its not working correctly at all and needs to be reviewed.  have had zero issues with this in the past year or so and its become a major part of my workflow. can someone please advise as to how and why this happening all of a sudden. any help appreciated - thanks very much,

Photoshop Beta 27.11 / 27.12Move Tool (V) → Auto-Select: LayerSingle-click on objects selects layers normally.Dragging a marquee around multiple visible unlocked layers shows the marquee, but layers are never selected.  Tried with only unlocked layers present, with some locked, with background canvas layer, without it. On new PSDs or existing ones. Any solution/workaround?

All of my paid plug-ins have disappeared.  I installed Vivion and all the rest of my plug-ins disappeared.  How do I get them back?

Photoshop crashing

In AI Assisted, all of the other platforms work except for Googles. I have not run out of generative credits. I have logged out and back in again, and updated Photoshop, but it’s still not working. It was working fine earlier today.  

After updating Photoshop Beta to the latest version, whenever I try to save a document I am currently editing, the program freezes at 98% during the save process and gets stuck there. The entire program locks up, and I cannot save any other files.I am forced to close the program via Task Manager because it becomes completely unresponsive.As a result, none of the other open files could be saved.Will I have to uninstall the latest version and reinstall the previous one?--------------------------Después de actualizar Photoshop Beta a la ultima versión, en el momento de guardar un documento que se encuentra en proceso de edición, el programa se queda bloqueado guardando al 98% y no se mueve de allí.  Se bloquea todo el programa y no se puede guardar ningún otro archivo.Me veo obligado a cerrar el programa desde el administrador de tareas porque el programa no permite hacer nada.Todos los demás archivos que tenía abiertos no se han podido guardar.Me veré obligado a desinstalar la ultima ver

A "Something went wrong, please try again later" error is generated every time a generate image prompt is used (both writing in my own prompt, or selecting a pre-made photoshop prompt, as well as writing in the tutorial one, word for word'). It loads for a couple of seconds before giving a "Something went wrong, please try again later" message with no additional context. This is also the case with generative images in a selected field, and 'generative expand' in the cropping function. Photoshop beta v25.9. Running on MacOS Ventura V13.5. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but this has not affected anything.

Rotate object not working. When click rotate object, that new layer is completely transparent, then when rotate changes accepted, always receive an error.Beta = 27.7 m.3511. Error = Could not update smart object files because of a program error (e2266e.571).

I see there is a new 27.12 beta release, but cant see any release notes relating to the ongoing colour issues in previous releases (after 27.9) being resolved? can anyone confirm?  also, usually there are only 3 previous versions available to roll back to, with 27.12 does this mean 27.9 (last working version) also will dissapear?  Normallly i would test this out but dont want to lose access to the last working version 27.9 Cheers

EDIT: Problem is solved. I’ve never encountered this before. For some reason, I needed to disable all of my monitors, except one, launch PS Beta, and then it worked (even when the other monitors were renabled). No idea why this was happening and why it didn’t affect regular PS (with the same HDR box checked) nor other programs with HDR support.  I don’t know how to close this report.________________________________Hello, I just updated Photoshop Beta to 27.5.0 (260305.m.3446). I have been using Photoshop on an HDR display for at least two years. OS is Windows 11 with HDR turned on for this display.“Precise color management for HDR display is checked.” ALL images now appear very dark on the screen. I have tested more than 30 photos. Most are NOT HDR photos. This includes JPG’s, tiff, PSD and both 8-but and 16-bit images. The same images look normal in non-Beta Photoshop. They also look normal if I move the photoshop window from an HDR to a non-HDR display.If i disable the “Precise color

This started in 27.10 where a new dialog box next to the brush you open starts flat in the angle and roundness description-for each brush I select, I always have to open the brush to it’s default position-this is completely opposite of helpful, especially if you already have a way to do this in the brush panel setting.  I reset the brushes and it still comes up FLAT in each new brush I select.  I updated to 27.11 and it’s still there. Sorry, this was PS Beta-not PS currently as 27.9.1I see now this was discussed in the Beta forum, please disregard...

Bad. Just like the last update it’s laggy and just bad. I guess with a 4080, amazing CPU, and 64gb of ram your software just doesn’t work… ridiculous. I’m about to switch to a free program at this point :\

But (!) If I save a copy, the copy has the same exposure as the original and *is not* blown out / over-exposed (as viewed in Bridge). This happened with Canon CR-2 files taken yesterday, but also with some older jpegs & older tiffs. BUT some older tiff/jpegs open normally. Can't deduce a pattern. Problem started w/Beta 27.10. I have not changed my default settings in a year, still sRGB, etc. Applying *auto* adjustment settings in Camera Raw show changes in the sliders, but NO CHANGES in the photo. WTF!!??, 

[Photoshop Beta 27.11.0] When I click ‘Generative Fill’ in the toolbar, I am used to start typing, because the text field had the cursor in it already. Now I have to click the text box to be able to start typing. The result is:I click Generative Fill in the toolbar I start typing, using all keyboard shortcuts under the sun watching my screen jump around Sigh Cleck on the text field Start typingThis used to be a two-stop process, and I think there is no UX reason why the original behaviour should not prevail. When I choose Generative Fill I will type, or not, a immediatly useable text field is the best.

We’re excited to announce that new contextual task bars are now available in Photoshop Public Beta. We know that finding the right tool, at the right time, can sometimes slow down a great workflow. Our new contextually aware task bars aim to help by providing common tools, actions and next steps right on the canvas where you’re working. We are currently launching five bars for importing new documents, making selections and using the Type Tool. Learn more below:    Open Image or File This bar will appear when you open an image or file in Photoshop (i.e. not a new, empty document)   New Document Workflow This bar will appear if you open a new, blank document from the Photoshop home screen If you choose to select “import image”, your image will be placed in the document as a Smart Object and the Free Transform bar will appear to help finalize placement   Type Tool Workflow This bar will appear when you select the Type tool from the tool bar and draw a text bo

I’m using Beta 27.11 on a windows 11 Pro machine (64 bit). Have used Beta quite a bit with no issues until this last update.Now I can’t adjust the brush type. I can change the size or angle, and go from hard to soft, and change opacity & flow, but any selection of a round brush defaults to elliptical. I’m able to select specialty brushes like wet or dry media or special effects brushes. This seems to only affect the round brushes in the “General Brushes” folder. Here is the step by step: 1. Select brush tool. 2. right click or use menu bar to open brush adjustment menu. 3. Select any round brush. 4. Instead of a being round, the brush is elliptical and is fully adjustable and normal (if you had wanted an elliptical brush in the first place) - can change size, angle, softness. I’m finding this bug in using the brush directly on the layer or on a layer mask. It affects the brush tool and other brush+ tools like history brush, adjustment layer brush, eraser, etc. The healing brush too

I honestly feel that Photoshop is no longer Photoshop. It is becoming a fundamentally different product, increasingly designed around AI-assisted creation at the expense of the traditional manual tools and workflows that made Photoshop what it is.I want to make something very clear: I am not against AI, innovation, or change. Quite the opposite. I have been working with Photoshop practically since its earliest years, and I have often preferred using Beta versions precisely because I enjoy experimenting with new tools and new possibilities. I have welcomed AI features when they complement manual work and make it faster or expand what we can do — features such as 3D object rotation are a perfect example.The problem is that the balance now seems to have been lost.Basic, historical Photoshop operations are becoming unnecessarily difficult, unpredictable, or actively obstructed by new behaviours.For example, guides, rulers and snapping behaviour make even something as elementary as drawing

I'm using the latest version of Photoshop Beta. Whenever I right-click on the canvas to open the brush picker and select a different brush, the Brush Roundness automatically changes to 0%.I have to manually set it back to 100% every time. Is there a setting that controls this, or could this be a bug in Photoshop Beta?I do a lot of photo compositing, so this becomes quite annoying and time-consuming. I also don't want to reinstall Photoshop since I have several custom brushes and other settings installed that I'd prefer not to lose.
