Navigator is blocked

[ZHack]

Sometimes - and i'm sorry i can't reproduce it reliably and easily - the navigator is blocked. Let me try and explain this better:

1. define an area with the zoom tool
2. move it around with the hand tool (space)
3. change the zoom factor in the navigator tool

Repeat any of the above in no special order.

Sometimes the "zoom area" changes to full width (see attached image) and then only a restart of PS solves the problem.

No showstopper - but inconvenient nontheless.

Hi @ZHack 

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 )Win)

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.

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