P: Eye dropper sampling ring missing

In V22.0.1 the eyedropper sampling ring is missing. Toggling the checkbox in teh options bar does nothing.

 

Resetting preferences does not resolve.

 

Windows 10 v20H2  and NVidia RTX2080ti driver 456.71

 

The tool works correctly in v21 and earlier on the same system

Hello, this issue should be fixed in the 22.1.1 update released a few days ago.

If you do not see the update in the CC application, go to help/check for updates.

I have this issue also on a Windows 10 OS with Adobe officially supported graphich adapter (as well as the vanished red overlay adjustment indicator for brush tip). 
Will roll back for the time being. But with an ironic smile and some anger about the time spent on such flaws and bugs, for which I have absolutely no understanding.

Thank you for looking into it! Adding to the thread:

My eyedrop sampling ring disappeared after I updated to version 22.0.1

 

While in eyedrop tool, the sampling ring is still selected; and under performance, my graphics processor is also still selected.

Hi
This question regards the sample ring. If the ‘show sampling ring’ box is checked, but is not displayed on the canvas, what changes need to be made in order to toggle the sample ring on.

Another update, another broken mess. 

 

This time you broke thee Popup color wheel (Settings -> General -> HUD Color Picker)

- When using the brush, you can hold ALT to change the brush size/opacityю

- Holding SHIFT+ALT pops up a color wheel.

ALT shortcut still works for brush control, ALT+SHIFT no longer works

 

Video from current and previous versions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0EZyVRj2ro

 

These shortcuts are a godsend for someone who uses the software professionally and is always looking to improve their workflow and speed. Taking this feature out (and retaining the settings for it) is a giant blow to usability.

Oh ugh. From reading posts in this thread, I take it that the color sampler wheel pop-up wheel is not working for many people (I use an iMac 2020). I rely on this shortcut HEAVILY in my workflow, and hope that it is reinstated soon.

When using a painting tool, I use the display the HUD (Heads-Up-Display) color picker shortcut on the Mac, (hold Control+Option+Command then click right-click). It's heavily integrated into my process as a digital painter. Please reconsider bringing this shortcut back to the newest versions of Photoshop.

And it also sucks when you delete a layer and it deletes the layer mask instead and then I have to press delete again to delete the layer.
