When loading more then 45 images at once in all versions of Adobe Photoshop 2021, creates a problem: If I start selecting with polygonal lasso, line that shows me where my selection is going to end, is non visible or if i start moving cursor around it creates ghost effect. Also with zooming in or out, on some versions, whole images is creating ghost effect.It does not matter if i load 46 and up Png or Jpg files, i get the same problem. As soon as close some images and get below 45, problem on some versions disappears. On some versions does not exist this ghost effect on image, but just on polygon lasso
There's been a new version, 23.0.1 with a few fixes.
Also, please post the contents of Photoshop's Help>System Info... menu, so that we get to know your OS, its version, the exact version of Photoshop you are running, the date of the GPU driver, etc.
And what about if you try to check "Deactivate Native Canvas" in the menu Edit/Preferences/Technology preview (Pc) or Photoshop/Preferences/Technology preview (Mac), then restart Photoshop. This is not a fix, but rather a way to check if the issue appears only with the new technology, and should be reported to the Ps team.
Once over 25 images e.g.26 images , scrubby zoom stops working and becomes greyed out. Zoom with a marquee still works. Close 1 image to bring down to 25 images and it is ungreyed and starts working again
I doubt this is a system limitation as I have 256GB RAM, RTX3090 24GB VRAM, Scratch disk on m2 NVMe drive with more than 1TB free
I've moved this thread to bugs to give others the chance to upvote it.
Not a bug. Each document window you open in Photoshop sets aside memory on your graphics card. At some point, you will run out of memory on your graphics card and additional document windows that are open won't be able to use the graphics card.

Then how come after an update this happen and i had a gpu with 4gb of vram older gpu nvidia 980and i could open 100files and it was working fine? I tried to update with 3090 to see if that was the problem and it didn't fix it.
I retested with both v23 and 22.5.3 on my main system which has 256GB RAM and an RTX3090 GPU 24GB VRAM
Photoshop v 22.5.3 No limit encountered for scrubby zoom
Photoshop v 23.0.1 25 image limit for scrubby zoom after which it is greyed
Following the tests on my main system I then went onto my second system which is smaller and has a 64GB RAM and a an RTX 2080ti GPU with 11GB VRAM
Photoshop v 21.2.12 No limit encountered for scrubby zoom
Photoshop v 22.5.3 No limit encountered for scrubby zoom
Photoshop v 23.0.1 25 image limit for scrubby zoom after which it is greyed
Image size does not appear to impact the limit, nor is it limited by system hardware.
It looks in every way like a bug to me, but if this change is by design, then that design appears to have introduced a limitation that was not there previously.
I would like to understand the workflow(s), of opening this many files at once and leaving them open during an editing session.
You may respond here or to me directly with [email address removed as per forum guidelines] ... I genuinely want know if there are specific areas exposed as either an opportunity we can make better or plug potential problems.
I need to edit multiple files as they are products and for a faster workflow i open multiple files at once and start to edit. Because open on files edit close it and open another one when you have like 100 files to edit, the time it will be more than tripple. Also on photoshoots i want to open more files and start to edit, apply some correction than can be apply on multiple files. Like this the workflow is faster and i don't waiste a lot of time.
It was working fine for multiple years but after new versions it stopped working. I had problems with premiere pro also, when before i could edit easy a 1080 file after an update i could barley edit it because it started to stutter hard and with davinci i could edit 4k files without a problem. So i don't know what happen but something it is.
