P: Artboard guides shows in a different color in 23.4.1 created in the previous version of Photoshop

  • Photoshop (23.4.1)
  • Windows 10 Pro

 

Hi. Today I updated to the latest version 23.4.1 and was unpleasantly surprised that the guides in my artboards were the same color as the canvas guides.

Naturally, in the previous version of the editor (23.3.2) in the Preferences > Guides, Grids & Slices... I had different colors set for the canvas and artboard guides. The Preferences are preserved in the new version and work correctly when I create new guides in the document. However, everything that was created earlier just rolled back to a single color.

I don't know if it makes sense to tell HOW inconvenient and destructive it is. Hundreds of documents with thousands of artboards. Yes, there is a new feature with customizing the color of the guides (which, I think, is the cause of my bug) - this is, of course, great ... But in Photoshop there is no way to quickly select all the guides of a selected artboard in order to somehow (albeit extremely painfully) roll back to the desired result.

 

Thus, the result I expected (which was not achieved) after the update:
In previously created documents, the colors of the guides (canvas and artboard) do not change spontaneously, but remain the same as those that were set in the Preferences when the document was last saved in the version preceding the update.

 

I did not find another way to return everything as it was, except to roll back the version to the previous one. Sadly. Hope you fix this bug soon.

Hi @nrgzone @nkandybin 

 

Thank you for reporting this issue. I have forwarded this issue to our engineering team and they are investigating a fix.

 

Thanks,

I'm having a similar problem. When starting a new document with no artboards, any canvas guide I create via dragging from the ruler is originally an artboard (blue) guide until I switch to the move tool and click somewhere, then it'll turn into a canvas guide (cyan). I absolutely HATE this extra step. So much so I reverted back to the previous version until the guides are returned to normal.
