P: Perspective Warp upside down [2023]

[Abarthphile595]

There seems to be an issue with Photoshop 2023, which the Perspective Warp tool makes the images appear upside down. It is only after approval that the images resume their orginal position. ie Correct way up.

What is going on?

Adobe Photoshop Version: 24.1.0 20221206.r.166 be4691b x64

Hallo,

wenn ich in PS-CC ein Bild perspektivisch verformen möchte und ich gehe über Bearbeiten auf -> perspektivisch verformen

ziehe den Punktrahmen auf

und sobald ich dann auf verformen gehe wird Bild vertikal gespiegelt ???

wo liegt mein Fehler?

[Kevin Stohlmeyer]

Hi @Karhu28675753adr1  go to Preferences Technology Preview and check "Older GPU mode (2016)" and relaunch PS.

Ik kan niet terug naar 2016. Ik heb ook het probleem dat Adobe verdraaien op zijn kop zet. Ik heb de NVIDIA Quadro K4200. 

[Kevin Stohlmeyer]

Hi @Helma0D45 make sure you have the latest PS update - the option should be found under Preferences/Technology Preview.

[Helma0D45]

I have the latest update, but i can't find Technology preview in
Preferences.

@Helma0D45 
I am assuming you are looking for "Older GPU mode (2016)" checkbox.
The 'Technology Previews' is the 2nd to last option, from the bottom of the list on the left side of the Preferences panel.

[Helma0D45]

Hi.
Thanks for your quick reply!
Yes!!! I've found it and it works right now!

Da qualche tempo ho un problema con i comandi “Alterazione Prospettica” , “Alterazione Marionetta” e con “Trasforma-Altera”.
Quando uso “Alterazione prospettica” come prima cosa disegno il quadrilatero sull’immagine che voglio modificare.
Quando passo dalla modalità Layout alla modalità Alterazione l’immagine mi ruota di 180 gradi!
Naturalmente sostando i punti di perno l’immagine mi si altera in modo “incontrollabile”.
Con i comandi “Alterazione Marionetta” e “Trasforma-Altera”, invece, come tocco l’immagine per modificarla si capovolge di 180 gradi.
Purtroppo non riesco a trovare una soluzione a questo problema.
Avete qualche idea di cosa può essere successo?
Grazie a tutti.

Hello!
It seems there is an isue with some users with that function.

Can you try to turn off that function in the preferences and see if it works?

You'll need to close Photoshop and open it again...

Sorry I tried Google translate in italian, no idea if that works 🙂

You can read my messages in italian with the tranlator included in this forum (bottom of my message)

This has been discussed several times in this thread, but for those who are impatient, busy or just don't know bother browsing through and read old posts in this thread, here we go once again:

I don't think anyone should advice people to use "Older GPU mode (2016)" because that will just cause Photoshop to use CPU software rendering thus slowing Photoshop down drastically.

The best way is to simply just "Add a blank (white) layer mask to the layer you need to warp". And yeah, thats it! Now you can warp and use the mask or not use the mask and it works just fine, as simple as that! See below example of a white mask on a layer I want to warp:

Since this works perfectly, we can clearly see that the problem is not at all about any "older hardware" or any "older GPU physics" at all, but is just a common bug introduced with changes in PS version 24.1.X and it looks like the bug is still there is 24.2.0 but lucky us, the above fix still works.

Thanks for the workaround! It fixed the upsidedown warping issue.

Hi whenever I use Warp tool the edited images turns upside down. I have seen several articles mentioning the exact issue as well. I am using Quadro K2200. When can I expect this issue to be fixed?

[Konrad Prajsnar]

Yes, mask workaround does help, however next thing i did was finally upgraded my gpu - from Quadro K620 i jumped to Quadro T600 and after that no more issues with warping! (v24.2.1). So yea, here's some clue. Thanks 🙂

[ManjotSingh]

the problem in Prespective warp, It is still , not resolved even in latest update 

[Ged_Traynor]

Hi

Try the workaround mentioned in this thread

@ManjotSingh 
The malfunction/bug is still affecting Transform Warp, Perspective Warp, and Puppet Warp, for PsCC 24.2.1 release. The workaround applying a blank mask only works for Transform Warp and Puppet Warp, at least for me.

I doubt (very much) this malfunction/bug has anything to do with graphics cards, seeing that it's a random occurence, apparently; my opinion..

[PacoD]

@Konrad Prajsnar 
Hi. And how much did that cost you? A new (quality) graphics card can put you back several hundred USDollars.

[Konrad Prajsnar]

It's Quadro T600 4GB DDR6 VCNT600-SB - best i found in around 250 in USD. Quadro series are for design applications and are pretty powerful despite their size (reliable and low power comsumption). There's no point buying big gaming GPU's like 3090 etc. I'm working PS, Id, Ai simultaneously on two monitors and i'ts fine.

@Kipos63
We'd all like to know, but all we've been told (as posted in this thread) by an Adobe employee is that "Engineering is looking into this issue." We wait.

[PacoD]

@Konrad Prajsnar 
Cool. At that suggestion of the "expert" that built my home PC an' stuff, I got suckered into buying a knock-down-drag-out Nvidia graphics card (mostly suitable for gaming, which I don't..), that was in 2014. At that time I had two 12" monitors and, boy, did my PC work at lightning speed! Eventually, one monitor had a melt-down, so I was left with one monitor—that wasn't going to work for me so switched out to a 30" monitor, and everything works like a charm thus far... expect PsCC and its annoying Warp bug. We wait for a fix.

[Konrad Prajsnar]

In my personal Lenovo P50 laptop and Quadro M2000M GPU the warp problem is unfortunately still present! That i cannot upgrade :/.

Does not work correctly When I put the first pin, the image turns upside down and cannot work. Resetting the settings and reinstalling Photoshop did not help What do you advise?

画像データの左右反転ではなく、表示機能の中の「水平方向に反転」した状態の時、

つまり見た目だけの表示が左右反転した状態でブラシで描く時の問題です。

何もかもすべて水平反転しているため、回転検知機能付きのペンタブレットで

回転を効かせて描画しようとすると回転方向が逆向きになってしまいます。

回転検知機能を使わない状態でもブラシ形状が左右反転した状態で描くことになります。

見た目を左右反転した状態でも、ブラシ形状や回転方向が左右反転されないように変更できないと、せっかくの反転機能の良さが失われます。
見て確認することにしか使えない現状が使いやすい人がいるのであれば、せめて切り替え機能を追加して欲しいです。
