Steps to reproduce:

  1. Select any OTF font.
  2. Type a dash followed by a word of your choice with no spaces. Example: “-Hello”.
  3. Apply any degree of stroke via styles.
  4. Add a space in-between the dash and the word.
  5. Photoshop should have froze if steps were followed correctly.

    Will it work for you to apply the Bullet feature and change the bullet type to a dash instead of typing the dash manually?

    You mean typing a sentence then stop, use mouse - go over to side menu and find bullet function and click on it ?

    That will be silly and take a lot of time..

     

    Photoshop freeze completely once I enter dash and a space before words. I no way can click on anything - even bullet menu.   Only option is go Task Mgr and kill the app.

    I have this problem too on latest BETA

    Type ‘-’ before a word immediately freeze photoshop. Had to kill program and restart all over again.

    Hi ​@waltersbergs testing here and not seeing this issue.

     

    1. 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


    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.

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

    Thanks,

    Hi ​@Bennet29095575v8z9 we believe we followed your your steps to recreate but did not see a crash.

     

    1. Do you have the latest beta? Adobe Photoshop Version: 27.6.0 20260412.m.3501 2f62d66  arm64 (beta, PublicBeta)
    2. Do you see the same issue on Ps release version or just Ps Beta?
    3. Please share your sysinfo: Launch Ps Beta, in top menu go to Help/System information and paste the info in your reply.

    Thanks,

    Cory - Photoshop Product Manager

    Hey Cory, thanks for the response. 

    1. I do now. On 27.7.0 20260419.m.3511 ba3a9e2  x64 (beta, PublicBeta), this issue seems to be fixed.
    2. On the release version of PS (27.5.0 20260323.r.13 dee573e  x64 (final, Release)), this issue does not exist.
    3. If it still would be of use to you, you can check my system info here: https://pastebin.com/ZMPXvULk

    Thanks,
    Bennet
