    Not sure if it is related but I had same problem after updating. I'm running on Windows 11, Photoshop ver 23.5 - could't use sampling ring and rotate view. 

     

    I went to Edit > Preferences > Techology Preview > checked Deactivate Native Canvas. 

     

    Now I can use my sampling ring and rotate view again.

        Thanks for the report @fernandos74754501, I saw the same thing and was able to get the Sampling ring to activate after checking "Use Graphics Processor" in Preferences > Performance.

         

        Give that a try, restart Photoshop, and let us know if you can activate the Sampling ring.

         

        Regards,

        Pete

        Can you post Photoshop's Help > System Info text here in the community @fernandos74754501 ?
