Hi,

I just want to know if anyone else is experiencing this since the update? It never use to happen and I thought perhaps it is crashing when I happen to use to the lasso tool, but it has been happening to much for me to consider it a coincidence.

It doesn't happen all the time, I can still use the tool. But once in a while it would just completely make the program not respond anymore and I would have to force it shut.

Is it just me?

This issue was fixed in the 19.1.1 update released late last night.

Photoshop CC 2018 crashes with lasso tool more often?

It doesn't happen more often though to answer the main question. At least not on my side. CC 2018 is way more stable. I thought at first the bug was fixed. But sadly it still happens when using the polygonal lasso tool.

This has been happening for years now. Adobe just can't spot years old bugs in their years old code. It happens ALL the time when using Wacom Tablets, which is a damn shame !

Out of all the pro painting apps around, photoshop is the only one unstable with Wacom products. And again : for years. It's just amazing that every time I have to read those : "Reinstall your video drivers", "check your RAM" "Reinstall Windows" and what else ? Seriously... Stop trying to shamelessly put the blame on something else when it's obviously a bug in the code that's there for: years. I've seen the same discussions again and again on forums on this subject.

In the last 4 years I changed my computer 3 times, I had 3 different graphic cards/mother Boards/CPUs, etc, even 2 different Wacom Cintiq. And those freeze happen, always, in Potoshop.

Wacom works like a charm with Corel Painter, ZBRush, etc. One can work for hours, days, months without having to fear a crash because of the stylus touching the surface of the screen. With Photoshop, one has to keep the damn mouse handy all the time to avoid crashes with those tools (lasso + Alt mainly) that just DON'T work. For way too long.
