Hi SR+INGLES,
I apologize for the delay in responding to your post. I completely understand your frustration. You're not alone in wanting 360 & 3D photo editing within Adobe's tools, and I want to be straightforward about where things stand.
Photoshop's legacy 3D features, which included the Spherical Panorama workflow for 360 editing (3D > Spherical Panorama > New Panorama Layer from Selected Layers), were officially removed as of July 2024. The underlying reason, as shared publicly, is that those features depended on legacy tools.
Again, I apologize for the late response.
Best,
Anshul Saini
