Scrubby Zoom Greyed Out In Adobe Photoshop CC

When I started using CC it worked perfectly but then a message popped up saying something that I couldn't read fast enough but as soon as that happened I couldn't use Scrubby Zoom it is grey and no matter what I do it doesn't work. When I go to Edit>Preferences the Use Graphics Processor is checked and when I got to Advanced Settings... everything is checked in there as well (except for the 30 bit display) and the drawing mode is on advanced so I don't know what to do. Please Help!

Try unchecking OpenCL and move your settings to Normal or Basic and see if the problem goes away.

The best thing is to visit your GPU maker's site for updated drivers for your graphics card model.

Quick answer:  Close and restart PS.

If it's a long-standing issue, try:

First go to Edit > Preferences and choose Performance.  Look at the Graphics Processor Settings and see if "Use Graphics Processor" is un-checked.  If it is check it.   Close and restart PS.

If your Graphics Processor was already checked, try switching the Advanced mode to Normal or Basic; and/or the reverse.   Close and restart PS.

 

With the Zoom selected in the Tools panel, look at the top of your window where the tool settings are displayed.  You will see 3 check boxes.  Make sure your Scrubby Zoom is now enabled.

 

I'm using PS CC 2019.

Im using PSD 22.2 and I need to restart psd until it have the scrubby zoom. It's a 50-50 chance to get it

Did you restart after changing the settings?
