UI/UX fail?

What is the problem about a setting being available in more than one Panel? 

As an aside: Have you overlooked the Character Panel? 

How many of us have moved panels close to where we need them, just to save moving the mouse/cursor any more than we need to?  I have done that for as long as I can remember.  It's even worse if you use multiple screens, and especially if they are large. 

If you use a small screen with less space to display the UI, it makes sense to use the default Function key shortcuts to turn panels on and off as you need them.  If you have pleanty of screen space, then those shortcuts are better served trigering Photosho Actions — like setting and resetting your custom workspace.

So the Contextual Task Bar is a genius idea with the potential for significant time saving.  It is already well thought out, and will no doubt get better.  The ability to customise it, like we can with the Toolbar,  would make it perfect.  

My pet hate are right click menus, and menus generally.  I like that the Development Team makes them contextual were they can(e.g. the option to create a Smart Object via copy does not appear unless the layer is already a Smart Object, but Photoshop's complexity means those menus are long, and you have to hunt through two dozen lines to find what you need, and I think we all resent the time that takes.  So, for me, it's better use shortcuts when you can, and the Function keys are perfect for this. 

So when you see options on how to perform a task or function, take the time to check it out, and use the one that works for you.  

Hi @Pedro369032337muj, I hear you! Photoshop is powerful, but sometimes navigating all the options feels like a scavenger hunt. 😄 It’s true that there are multiple ways to adjust text, and we know that can sometimes lead to confusion or extra clicks. Your feedback is appreciated, and it genuinely helps guide future improvements to the UI. If there’s a specific part of the experience you’d like to see streamlined, feel free to share here! ^CH
