Properties panel not showing Hue/Saturation sliders in Photoshop Beta

[Tom S...]

Hello,

I’m experiencing a recurring bug in the latest version of Photoshop (Beta) on macOS.

When I add a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, the Properties panel does not display the usual Hue, Saturation, and Lightness sliders. Instead, it only shows:

“No mask selected” — even though the white thumbnail (the adjustment layer, not the mask) is properly selected in the Layers panel.

This bug does not happen in the stable version of Photoshop, nor in a different open document within the same session.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open or create a new document

2. Add a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer

3. Click the white thumbnail of the adjustment (not the mask)

4. The Properties panel incorrectly shows only mask options (“No mask selected”)

System details:

• Photoshop Beta version: 26.6.0

• macOS version: 15.3.2

• Chip: Apple M3 Pro

Hi @Tom S...  testing here and it appears to be working as expected.

1. Try resetting Prefs for the Beta:
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/ Photoshop Beta Settings (Mac Ventura)
/Users/yourname/Library/Preferences/Adobe\ Photoshop\ \(Beta\)\ Settings (Mac)


C:\Users\user name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop (Beta)\Adobe Photoshop (Beta) Settings

Launch BETA Photoshop While Pressing The Keyboard Shortcut
With Photoshop closed, press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) / Shift+Command+Option (Mac) on your keyboard and then Launch Photoshop the way you normally would.

2. It may help if we could see your Photoshop beta System Info. Launch Photoshop beta, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.
