The new 27.6 update for Photoshop is now producing a thin white line border around my layouts when increasing the viewing size above 100% in navigator. It does not appear below 100%. My graphic accelerator has never produced this problem before.

I need to be able to know if that is from my layout sizing or simply a bug in the system.

Correct answer D Fosse

This tends to happen with floating layers at any other zoom ratio than 100%.

The reason is that a floating layer can have content outside the canvas boundary, and this empty area is included in the screen resampling.

So either view at 100%, or turn the layer into a flat Background layer.

See attachments for the issue. Is it recognized as a bug? Is there a plan for a fix?

As explained elsewhere, this is a result of screen resampling of floating layers. A floating layer can contain content outside the canvas boundary, so the transparent pixels outside the canvas are included in the resampling.

In other words, not a bug, just a side effect of layer properties.

It does not happen at 100% with no resampling, and it does not happen wit a flat background layer with no off-canvas pixels.

I’ve been using photoshop for years and this has never happened before. It might very well be as a result of what you describe but previous versions of photoshop also used the layer system and this visual artifacting was never apparent. Something is wrong with the ‘not 100%’ view in this new update.

No, this has only happened for the update. I’ve been using Photoshop for many years, this is definitely a bug.

For testing purposes only, can you tell us what happens when you try the two things @D Fosse suggested:

View at 100%
or
Create a new layer with a solid fill and make it a Background layer
Layer menu > New > Background from Layer

It’s always been the case that you need to view at 100% 1:1 to get a true rendition of how your artwork looks. If the edges are other than perpendicular to the border or round, then you might be seeing antialiasing, If that’s the case then, yes, that’s actually there.

If you want more information, then a full res screen shot of your entire workspace with the layers panel showing, and the layer you think has the artefact showing.
