Markup and Tune tools are missing in AI Assisted Editor

Markup and Tune tools are missing in AI Assisted Editor.

AI Assisted Editor is enabled in my updated Photoshop 2026, but the Markup and Tune tools are missing from the toolbar.

The only available tools are:

  • Prompt
  • Fill
  • Remove
  • Crop and expand
  • Upscale
  • Remove background

I have tested both Photoshop 2026 and Photoshop (Beta) 27.11.0 on macOS. I also opened JPG/PNG images directly instead of adding them as reference images, but Markup and Tune still do not appear.

Adobe’s AI Assisted Editor documentation shows that Markup and Tune should be available. Could you please confirm whether these tools are being released gradually by account or region, or whether this is a bug?

System: MacBook Pro M4
Region/account: Japan

    Hi ​@JT_3137 

     

    Apologies for the delayed response. I’m hopeful that the issue has been resolved by now. If not, I’d suggest trying the following steps:

    1. Close Photoshop, then reopen it and open a different file. Check if you can now see all the options.
    2. If the issue persists, try resetting Photoshop preferences after creating a backup of your settings/folders. The steps are shared here: https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/desktop/get-started/settings-and-preferences/backup-and-restore-preferences.html
    3. If none of the above helps, try reinstalling Photoshop and check if that resolves the issue.

    Let us know how it goes or if you continue to experience the issue after trying these steps.

    Thanks, Srishti Bali | Community & Engagement Strategist, Digital Imaging | Adobe

    Sorry, even in Photoshop 27.10.0 those tools show here … 

    Is there anything peculiar about the image – pixel dimensions, bit depth, …? 

    What have you done for all purpose trouble-shooting so far?
