Info panel will not display Lab. Lab displays CMYK, CMYK displays HSL

[Jeff Arola]

What version of macOS are you using?

Intel or Apple Silicon?

Is that on an image that is in that particular color space or when switching color values in the Info panel itself?

Can you post a screenshot(s) to illustrate the issue?

So far i'm not seeing that here with Photoshop 2025 (ps ver 26.4) running on macOS Sequoia 15.3.1 on a 2022 Mac Studio.

You could try a reset of the Photoshop preferences to see if that corrects the issue:

What have you done for all-purpose trouble-shooting so far?
Restoring Preferences after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved might be a good starting point:

There is a problem in the latest photoshop and in the BETA version. The Info panel options window does not work correctly. The total ink setting does not work. Also the CMYK option does not show. It shows in RGB all the time. Please fix this because we cannot work. Best regards

Reset preferences does not fix the issue.
Any color space image.

PS 26.4.0
M3 Mac Book Pro
OSX 15.3.1
Selecting Lab to from Info panel options for either first or second color readout dispolays CMYK values in the info palette. Selecting CMYK displays HSL (not an option).
Selecting HSB displays HSB

Other modes seem to work correctly.
RGB > RGB, etc.

I've moved your post from Creative Cloud desktop to the Photoshop forum.

Which exact version of Photoshop are you using and when did this issue begin? 

I also edited your subject for clarity. It was "Photoshop Update".

Similar problem - can't change to Total Ink. When i choose Total Ink and press OK, there's still Actual Color.

Photoshop 26.4.1, Windows 10.

[Jeff Arola]

If you change the values in the Info panel itself by clicking on one of the Eyedroppers, does that work?

[axelb1021337]

Yes – that works 

[David29028790hcy4]

Confirmed that work around works. Curious the HSL option is there but grayed out,

[GarethLind]

The old version works. The newest 26.4.1 doesn't. Things like this are why I don't like upgrading. Always new and unpleasant suprprises with Adobe updates!
