Leading Bug

Having a problem when I try to set the leading on some text with photoshop. Wondering if this is a bug or if I am doing something wrong. I can work around it, but its pretty annoying and thought I would let you guys know.

Hi

Yes there is a bug on the leading that was introduced with CC2018. Adobe are aware and are working on a fix.

In the meantime you can use the workaround below:

a. Enter the leading value in the Properties panel.

b. When you hit enter the value in the properties panel box will change to something different (that is part of the bug) but will now show correctly in the Character panel

c. The value applied to the text will be the same as you entered and now shown in the character panel

Note : The workaround does not work backwards - you must enter in the properties box.

2 weeks since this has shown up.   Ridiculous that Adobe has not fixed it.

Same Issue, thankfully I am not crazy. Any word on when this will be fixed?
