Issue: 

  • Photoshop version:  25.0
  • OS: Windows


Steps to reproduce:

  1. Random work on file
  2. Patches of block shapes appear on the existing layers mask
  3. Sometimes after manual removal, it still appears after a while. Position of these blocks seem random

 

Expected result: Mask as left alone
Actual result: 

The current version seems to add random block shapes to existing masks, sometimes in multiple layers

    Hi @arzelia could you share a video of your workflow when you see this?

     

    Try resetting Prefs for the Beta:

    /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura)

    /Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)
    C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings )Win)

    Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut

    With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would.

    It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.
