Shapes, brushes drawn ,created wont`t be seen

Question

Hi, I have encountered a problem in photoshop. any shape i wanna draw, even with pentool, or bucket tool, brushes, it won`t be seen anymore. it actually happened while i was working, the shape right in the left can be seen, but after that I managed to be in a hurry and while I was typing quickly, the working mode changed to full screen. I`ve read some posts about reseting the general settings but didn`t help. can anyone please, help me? thanks a lot!

Hi, not sure what the issue is exactly, but I'll try to give a few tips:

- You can switch screen modes by pressing "F" - you can press multiple times to switch between them.

- You can switch between workspaces, which all have different panel configuration, through a dropdown on the very top right, or through Window > Workspaces in the menu.

- The brushes, brush settings and other panels next to the layers panel are collapsed, so you only see the icons. On the very top of that sidebar, there are two tiny arrows, which you can click to expand the panels and they will be constantly visible. You can also right click on them and see more options about the behavior.

Hopefully one of these helps. If not, please further clarify which interface elements aren't showing up as expected, perhaps also record a video if possible to outline the issue.
