P: Ps 26.8 Corner Radius Handles Missing After Update.

Hi everyone,
I recently updated my Photoshop to the latest version, and I noticed a change with the Rectangle Tool.

Previously, after drawing a shape with the Rectangle Tool, I could see four corner radius points which allowed me to adjust the curves individually using the Move Tool. However, after the update, those points no longer appear or respond as they used to.

Is this a known change in the latest update? Or is there a new method to enable corner radius control like before?

Would really appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks in advance!

      Photoshop 26.8
      Windows 11

      While having a rectangle layer selected, using the move tool and hovering over the corner rounding handles:
      The move tool curser changes to the rounded corner curser, however it cannot actually make changes to the rectangles corners even though the curser appearance implies it can. Clicking and dragging on the rounded corner via the move tool does nothing.

        OK, was able to reproduce on my end. The details I was missing were that it occurs while using the Move tool and with the Show Transform Controls option enabled. This makes the handles appear but you are unable to move them. The workaround is to use one of the Shape tools (Rectangle or any of the others), and then the handles are usable.

          Hi, I recently updated my Photoshop to the latest version, and I noticed a change - After creating a shape, i can able to adjust the corner radius using the handle that appears while clicking that shape. Now, after the update, it is working only for the first time. Cannot adjust it for another time, the handles showing but cannot able to move. Is it a bug?

            As a work around, either select the Path Selection Tool or one of the Shape Tools

                @Ged_Traynor  I was using the Shape tool. It also works properly using the Path Selection tool. When using the Move tool, the problem the OP describes occurs. The radius icons are visible, and hovering over them changes the cursor to a small arc, but they can not be moved.

                @Semaphoric are you selecting the move tool to move the radius points, with show transform controls enabled, as per the video the OP uploaded, it works in version 26.7 but not in 26.8
