Difficult black border around layer or mask in layer panel

[Edward Caruso Photography]

I've moved from an Intel Mac to Apple silicon and for some reason Photoshop has added a thick black outline around layers in the layers panel. Since layer masks can be mostly black sometimes it's difficult to see if the pixel layer or mask is activated. This wasn't an issue on the Intel Mac but I'm using the latest PS Beta version on each. There must be a way to adjust the color of the outline so we can more easily see which layer or mask is selected. Anything I'm missing or is it an oversight on the UI team?

In the screenshot the layer mask on Gen Fill 2 is selected but it's not easy to see at a quick glance.

Hi! You are right! It's difficult to tell what is selected. You mentioned above that you are using the Beta version. Do you have a regular non-beta version installed on your machine, and if so, do you have the same problem?

Same layer outline issue on the non beta version. Didn't have this outline on the Intel Mac, strange that the layer panel would be different with the same PS version. I've disconnected the Intel iMac, if I get a chance to hook it up again I'll send a screenshot but it this should be corrected unless we're missing an obscure setting somewhere.

That might be helpful to see! Even though it is the same version of Photoshop, the silicon version is a different OS build than the intel mac version. Since this is happening in the non beta version too, this is probably something the team will have to look at to fix. Do you have an older version installed that you could work on until this gets fixed?

I mean I can manage but its just a glaring oversight if this is effecting all Apple silicon users.

I'm also of the feeling that the PS UI was fine a number of years ago and these changes are not exactly helpful.

I see better definition on my end

What is your current screen resolution? Go to Apple menu > System Settings > Displays. You will probably have to go to Advanced and turn on "Show resolution as list" then click Done. What is the resolution that is selected? I'm using the default (for my machine) 1440x900

My panels monitor is 190x1200

But still a user selectable color would make sense.

I mean the blue share button was forced on us, so let us have some usability back in the layers panel (and yes I tried the neutral color mode on/off to see if it fixed the layers panel issue)
