Photoshop 27 Text leading error

Im getting an error code when trying to increase the leading in a photoshop document.

 

"A value between 0.00 point and 77.52 Points is required. Closest value inserted."

 

I have deleted all my preferences and reset my font cache. I have also tried reverting back to v26 and the issue still remains. 

 

I need help!

@bhwalker_0925 the default calculcation is 120%, so, if the font size is 10 points x 120% = 12 points for leading. Test if you can manually change the leading by double clciking that box and entering the new leading. That definetly sounds like a bug!

@bhwalker_0925 

 

is this happening in all documents or just the one? Did you resize the type by scaling at any point in time?

 

Have you tried resetting the Type tool? Right click the tool in the options bar (not tools panel) and select reset tool.
