Unusual workaround required to create an Adjustments preset in Photoshop Beta 27.3.0

Question

I tried a couple methods to create an Adjustments preset in PS Beta 27.3.0. Selecting the layer and clicking the "+" sign in the Adjustments Layer did not bring up a Preset dialog. Nor did the Adjustment Panel menu list an option to add/save a Preset. Finally, I succceeded by (1) first clicking the "+" sign in Adjustments Panel; (2) then selecting the Adjustment layer and clicking Duplicate layer; (3) only then, as the confirmation/naming dialog opened for that action, a separate dialog blinked open to save the Adjustment layer as a Preset. After I named the Preset, it appeared at the bottom of the Adjustment preset menu.

Apparently, lining the layer up to be duplicated convinces the app that there is, indeed, a layer waiting to be saved as a Preset — assurance the "+" sign action won't act without.

Hi @jpolansky sorry for the confusion, but this is how to save your adjustment custom preset...

1. On your open image, apply and adjust whatever adjustments you want to get the look you are trying to achieve.

2. Click on a folder of one of the adjustments, then shift click any other folders to select all in your layer panel.

3. Click the " + " icon in the adjustment panel and give the preset its name.

4. The new preset will be at the FRONT of the thumbnails for the top most adjustment preset group you used.

Let me know if this helps, if not I can show some images or a short video.

Thanks,
