I have looked everywhere for a solution. I am a creative cloud member, and have the newest software (2020). Everything is for the older software(s).

It types: !!Please help

Instead of: Please help!!

But if you keep typing, it goes back to normal.

It will look like this: !!I'm getting really, really annoyed

Even the cursor jumps every time I hit the space bar

Soooooooooo frusturating!!!

Hi there, 

 

Sorry that your text is Photoshop 2020 is being types in the wrong direction as the cursor keeps jumping. 

 

Would you mind checking that the paragraph direction in Photoshop is set to “left-to-right” other than “right-to-left“. Go to Type menu from the top, choose Panels from the drop-down menu, select Paragraph Panel from the sub-menu in Photoshop. Alternatively click the Paragraph button in the right pane to quickly open the Paragraph Panel.

 

 

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Thanks,

Akash

Thanks!! The funny thing is, I solved the problem 15 minutes after I made the post, and completly forgot about it. Thanks though. That solution is the one I used, and totally fixed the problem.
