I was Working in layers and making changes with the remove tool and the clone stamp tool  & masking , suddenly the image split like an old tv fault,  bands across the image pixelation and missing strips (vertical bands no pixels). the tools were lagging, slow &  jittery right be for the file split.

closed with out saving, opened the origional image again same issue. file corrupted. I updated beta the issue has not re-occured. The interface however has its is brand new, filled with help menus and some sort of game-ified learning progression that is marking my progress. I find that to be annoying and offensive, it would be better I think  to have it available instead as a resource, perhaps a help menu. The tutorials and the people providing them are great clear easy to follow accurate and helpful. Aaron Nace from 2011 to today I thank you !

Hi @DaBee if you would like to suppress the in-app tutorials, please go to Prefs/Notifications and either tick the Enable Quiet Mode box, or tick the boxes of other types of notifications to customize your workflow disruptions.  You do NOT have to restart Ps, so simply make a selection and close out the prefs window.  You can then turn back on whatever you would like when you want to learn or see what is new.

 

Thanks,
