M: Photoshop 21.2 Redraw Bug

Just updated to the 21.2 version. Now, whenever I use any transform function. The background of that doesn't redraw properly but instead seems like it leaves a preview of where the image used to be. Almost like a duplicate layer except there is no dup. Glitchy.

What does Legacy Composting do?

I'm having major screen redraw issues and visual glitches when resizing and moving graphics, copying artboards, and editing text. I did not have these issues with the previous release.

Images are being visually duplicated when moving things around, and sometimes the entire canvas turns gray and all graphics dissapear. I've tried changing graphics proccessor settings and toggling legacy compositing on and off but this is still happening.

Hi

In preferences, disable Legacy Compositing if it's enabled and restart Photoshop to see if that helps

There is a problem with texts and layers displaying incorrectly.

1. I add text plus some icons. I then group them. I select the group and using the move tool, I move the group. The Group moves but leaves the original tect and icons... The original text and icons cannot be moved.

2. I tried This on another file I moved the text.. Then it looked like I had duplicated the text... But there was no duplicate.

Please advise a solution

We (group of designers) updated our Adobe programs this morning with the new programs. In Photoshop when we change something on a layer or make a new layer the document does not refresh and the previous change stays on the document and the new one is there too. If I would click a layer on or off it seems to refresh, sometimes. Please fix or offer a solution as this is very annoying. Tempted to uninstall the program and reinstall the older version.

When I try to move a layer, a duplicate appear and stays on the background.

This happens after I've updated to 21.2.0. I tried to restart my mac and clear my Photoshop preference the bug still happens. Please if anybody has a solution, do suggest. Adobe help me!
