Layer Styles: Gradient Overlay: Align with layer - Not Working

  • January 9, 2021

Bevel & Emboss and Gradient Overlay applied to masked selection of image.

Gradient Overlay only shows a small portion of gradient colors. I can click on and move the oversized gradient within the masked area.

However, selecting Align with Layer or Reset Alignment has no effect at all. (see attached image)

I did not have any problems with this in previous versions of Photoshop.

I think this might be a bug - very annoying.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

Windows 10 ver. 2004 64 bit

Adobe Photoshop Version: 22.1.0 20201125.r.94 2020/11/25: 4b16c876033 x64

You may need to scale down gradient in Layer Style dialogue.

Go to the Blending Options and uncheck Transparency Shapes Layer.

    Holy smoke! I never would have figured that one out by myself. No idea what Transparency Shapes Layer is meant to be used for or why it caused this problem in the most recent iteration of Photoshop while not being an issue in previous versions.

     

    Thank you very much for your help.
