Hello, I am having an issue with photoshop where File > New > is not auto-inputting the clipboard size into the canvas size for the new document. This has worked on every version of photoshop until this point. I sadly ended up on version 23.3.2 (photoshop just updated itself in the last couple days I guess without me noticing, and I am pretty sure I had that auto update turned off since I reverted back to 22.2 a couple weeks ago, sigh)

Have you guys considered testing your product before launching updates? I reverted back to 22.2 because of all the bugs I was experiencing with the latest versions. Seems turning auto update off cant even save me.

The latest update dropped just a day ago v23.5.0 this issues persists.

I copied something to the clipboard.

Opened PS

Select new from clipboard

I got an edit area with TWO weird edit areas: One was smaller and was not the correct size and another one kinda greyed out that was very large.

I have my window set to an area about the size of my display on my laptop but not using the full screen "green dot" on a MAC window bar.
Great, looks like it now worse than we we all started this thread.

Not impressed with this update.

My solution in case someone did not already post.

Issue:

When using the New Document panel to create a new document from the clipboard it no longer uses the width and height from the clipboard unless I click on another recent item and then back on clipboard again before clicking Create.

Photoshop version: 23.5
OS: Windows 10

Steps to reproduce:

Copy something to the clipboard, say 100px x 100px
Create a new document using File -> New
Double-click on Clipboard in the recent Items list, or click Create

Expected result: A new document with dimensions of 100px x 100px
Actual result: A new document with the previously used width and height.

It only works if I click on a different recent item and then click on the clipboard again.

This is extremely annoying as I use this feature frequently.

Hi

This issue has already been reported and will be fixed in a future release, I would have thought it would have been the 23.5 update that fixed it, but sadly not

I'm glad for the people where using the Legacy New Document interface works. I've tried that. Unfortunately for some unknown yet anger-inspiring reason the "Clipboard" option is disabled/grayed-out in the dialog box on my computer systems both at work and at home. This on-going thing with not being able to start up a new document sized to clipboard contents is very very irritating.
