Anyone else having problems with the Hue/Saturation tool in Photoshop?

Since the latest update, everytime I bring up the Hue/Saturation tool and start using the dials, Photoshop crashes, I have to force quit it and reopen.
Anyone else having this problem?
I'm on an iMac runnig the latest version of Catalina.

If you must have the Rulers on, apply Hue/Saturation as an Adjustment Layer instead of directly from the Image > Ajustments menu.

Hello, please go to your Creative Cloud app, and update to Photoshop 21.2, as this issue is fixed, according to this help document: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/fixed-issues.html#photoshop-desktop-fixed-issues

I moved your post from the Get Started forum to the Program Specific forum, PS.

If this is in Error please state the exact Adobe program you are asking about.

Yes, Adobe has acknowledged that this is a bug in the current version 21.1.3.

They are working on a fix. In the meantime, they've offered a couple of workarounds:

 

"Current workarounds that we're aware of:

  • Disable Rulers (CMD+R on Mac, Ctrl+R on Win), or
  • Move the Adjustment dialog outside of Photoshop's workspace/interface before touching any sliders."
