Hi all,

since the last update i have an issue with the hand tool. Usually i use the space bar for switch to the hand tool and scroll the image, but after releasing the space bar and the mouse click the tool keep working like if i am still holding down the commands annd the cursor movement clearly move my visual. For unlocking it i have to click 4-5 times on the image o clickin on the navigator.

Someone have an idea for fixing it? 😞

Thanks a lot

Hi Cory

This doesn't fix the problem. The 'stick' seems to happen with a number of tools/operations involving clicking and moving mouse. Only appeared with latest version of PS.

Hi @Mark8819 sorry to hear this.

 

Go to Preferences/Tools and disable flick panning and overscroll - does the issue still occur?

Are you using only a mouse or do you also have a graphics tablet/pen?

Exactly with brush, with pen tool, patch healing spot...whenever i use the space bar 9 times on 10 the hand get stuck. Such fun when you are creating a path and clicking for unlocking the tool u gate a point 10km away! 😄

Been happening to me too, but only with latest release of PS. Also sticks when drawing with the pen (paths) tool as well.
