Photoshop (Beta)

I’ve created 2 AI variations of a layer in my document in PS Beta 27.12.0. The image size is 2960x2844 RGB. Nothing unusual or big (I’m on a PC, Windows 11, with 128GB RAM and 24GB VRAM). If I have the Properties Panel open and click to toggle the visibility of a layer, it takes ~5 secs to update the image. If I close the Properties Panel, it updates instantly. I have 2 AI-generated layers in my image. If I delete those layers, showing/hiding any layer updates instantly. I have 5 layers in the image (2 are AI-generated). Annoyingly, even if I close the Properties Panel, if I do any kind of AI stuff, it pops open again and spoils the party by slowing everything down again.Quitting and relaunching PS, and reloading that same document did not change anything - the problem still persists.

Relight – Changing any light setting resets Intensity and Diffusion to 0%EnvironmentPhotoshop Beta [exact version from Help > System Info], updated on October 7, 2026 macOS [version], Apple Silicon Mac System language: French (French number format, comma as decimal separator)Steps to reproduceOpen an image and select an unlocked pixel layer. Go to Layer > New Relight Layer. Select the light and set Intensity to any value (e.g. 60%). Change any other setting of the same light: Diffusion, or the position (left/right, up/down, front/back).Expected resultEach setting keeps its value, so Intensity and Diffusion can be adjusted together.Actual resultAs soon as any setting is changed, Intensity and Diffusion jump back to 0%:Adjusting Intensity resets Diffusion to 0%. Adjusting Diffusion resets Intensity to 0%. Moving the light in any direction resets both to 0%.This makes it impossible to get a correct preview before clicking Done. Since each render costs 30 credits, I can't validate a

In 27.12, when using ai generative fill, or remove - the usual 3 variations are created.  However, the cursor flashes between working and ready - and the image will not update when chosing between them - unless you minimise the Properties window which displays the variations.  So, you have to select a variation, then minimise the panel and the main image will change to show the variation, if you try to do this as it used to be - it just wont update.  AI tools are also very much slower than they used to be

today i update photosho. After updating to Photoshop Beta 27.12 3700, when I use AI features like gen fill, harmonise, ai denoise, ai sharpen etc, Photoshop becomes extremely slow. It is running very slowly.

Photoshop Beta 27.11 / 27.12Move Tool (V) → Auto-Select: LayerSingle-click on objects selects layers normally.Dragging a marquee around multiple visible unlocked layers shows the marquee, but layers are never selected.  Tried with only unlocked layers present, with some locked, with background canvas layer, without it. On new PSDs or existing ones. Any solution/workaround?

Hi everyone!   The Block style of dynamic text is now available in Photoshop beta!   Dynamic text is a new form of type layer that automatically resizes and adjusts your text to fit the shape of the text boundary, and enables you to easily create different looks and layouts by resizing the type layer's boundary rectangle.     How to make dynamic textCreate a Point type or Paragraph type layer, and convert to dynamic text using the new button found in the Tool options bar and Properties panel  or from the Type menus.    You can customize the spacing between words or lines using the Word gap and Line gap options in the Dynamic text section of the Properties panel.   Try Dynamic text & Share what you create! Please try Dynamic text: Block, share what you create in this forum thread, and let us know if you encounter any issues or have thoughts on how we can improve this feature!   Known issue Dynamic text: Block doesn't quite work wel

Harmonize not working. Harmonize Button is present, Photoshop thinks while processing, then provides three options of the exact same image with no harmonization applied. I have used Harmonize before so I believe I’m doing it correctly, but no change is happening recently when I try to use it.

Hi Adobe team,I’ve been incredibly impressed with the new cloud-based background removal and subject selection tools in Photoshop Beta — they work amazingly well! While using these features, I thought of an idea that could greatly improve workflow for designers and photographers:Feature Idea: "Add Shadow" ToolI’d love to see a dedicated button or option called "Add Shadow" that automatically generates a realistic shadow for a cutout object based on a selected light source.How It Could Work:After cutting out an object, users would click "Add Shadow" in the properties panel or toolbar.The tool would provide options to define the light source direction, intensity, and softness.Photoshop would intelligently generate a natural-looking shadow that responds realistically to the object's shape, contours, and position.Bonus features could include controls for shadow opacity, blur, and color tint to better match environmental lighting.Why This Feature Would Be Valuable:It would save designers si

Issue: Photoshop version: 27.11.0 20260830.m.3655 ceb0621  x64 (beta, PublicBeta) OS: Windows 11 Pro 2H52 Build 26200.9168 GPU: Nvidia RTX 4080Steps to reproduce:Open a document Start editing Entire screen flickers at random intervals (couple of times per minute roughly, but it’s irregular). Notes:Sometimes it happens when I’m doing nothing. Just looking at the screen. Doesn’t happen when Photoshop is running in the background. Only when the application is in focus. Didn’t happen on 27.9 Beta or the release candidate with the exact same hardware. On a previous test, I noticed it happening in the 27.10 Beta also. Happens with GPU acceleration ticket and unticked

Hugh / saturation:The selectable colours shifted 1 to the leftyellow = redgreen = yellow….Example: select the yellow button and the red slider appears. The colour red changes in saturation or lightness, depending on the slider used.In the released version 27.10, red is the first button (correct) In the ßeta 27.11, yellow is the first button, but it changes still redIt's very confusing to use. 

select any part of the image, use Generative fill… then look at the screen for 20 to 30 seconds while the software does nothing.. then..  the “options” appear…. try to see the other 2 options you can see they are there.. but when I click on the arrow to go to the next, it takes another 20 seconds to switch, every time… going trough 3 generations gave me the time to go make a coffe...

Photoshop + Photoshop Beta: Bei Verwendung des Remove-Tools erscheint nach längerer Wartezeit die Meldung: "Programm konnte nicht ausgeführt werden, weil ein Programmfehler aufgetreten ist" Dieser Programmfehler tritt nun bereits seit mehreren Wochen auf.Ich muss seither zum Entfernen “Generative Fill” verwenden, was nicht Sinn und Zweck ist.

while working on my character 2d layers for rigs, I choose the right shoe layer. I click on “fx” at the bottom menu in the layers menu and then a spinning loading symbol appears to freeze up the application. Then between 3 to 15 seconds the whole application crashes.  Most of the time without a recovery file when this occurs. This happens whether i double click the layer to add the ‘fx’ for the color overlay persay, as well as the selection of the ‘fx’ symbol in the menu area.    

Photoshop Beta 27.9 on Apple MBP M1 Max running OSX Tahoe 26.5.2When I look at an image in Lightroom it looks as it should, however when I open it in Photoshop it appears very bright, as if a curves or gamma has been applied to it. If I open the “covert to profile” menu the preview looks normal. If I turn proof colors on it appears as it should. However with proofing off it returns to it’s very bright state. Same as with anything that shows a preview, preview looks normal. I tried Sony ARW raw files and tif’s, no difference.It was ok on Friday, problem started with open today, July 13th.See attached screenshots Any advice on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
