I'm using the latest BETA version of Photoshop, and for some reason I can't move new layers I create. I will copy a part of an image make a new layer out of it and then make a smart objection out of it and it will not move. I have already tried doing this exact thing on OTHER "Stable" versions of Photoshop. I completeled delteted all of my Photoshop saved settings reinstalled it and it still doing the same thing. It must be a bug. I have been using the Beta versions of Photoshop for some time now and I use updated my Beta version and this started happened it wasn't happening just a few hours ago.... please help.
To be clear all my work is backed up. I was using Version 25.2 of the Betas. Over an hour later still no luck fixing the problem. I have installed the latest Stable Verson 25.1 of Photoshop. I have no problems all my settings work perfectly. Version 25.2 has an issue moving layers where if you create a smart object out of a new layer it will not let you do anything with it..... you can use the "Move Tool" no problem, but when you try and "Free Tranform" it and try and warp the layer it will not do anything....
We cross posted there, and it sounds like you have had a decent go at fixing it, but the beta is definitely not as stable as 25.1. If you look through a few threads in this forum, you'll see Cory (Adobe employee) suggesting a manual Preference reset in a LOT of threads.
Please reread what I said, it wasn't happening on EARILER Betas. I haven't changed any settings before I updated to the lastest Beta 25.2 from 25.1 Photoshop Beta. Plua I clean installed it just to be sure it wasn't something I may of done from before and am still having the same issues. It's a frash intall NO NEW Preferences other then what was defaulted already....... Their is a bug.... in the latest BETA.
Still no luck I've tried another time using 25.2 Photoshop Beta. Still will not allow me to move layers using the "Free Tranform" option, but will move layers with the "Move Tool. This was done with a CLEAN INSTALL of Photoshop BETA 25.2. On other OLDER BETAS like 25.1 Photoshop Beta the "Free Transform" option with smart object layers works perfectly fine. To be safe I've been using the Stable Verson of Photoshop 25.1. OUTSIDE of the testing I did where I clean installed Photoshop Beta 25.2. I'm convinced that their's a bug in the Beta as I stated to the so called "Community Expert" the other day.Hopefully the development team will fix this issue soon in a update possibly in Photoshop Beta 25.3
