P: Refine Edge > Shift Edge doesn’t shift edge of selection [PS 4.8 on iPadOS]

[John3167133661ac]

Issue: Refine Edge > Shift Edge doesn’t shift edge of selection

• Photoshop version: 4.8 (20230724.486)
• OS: iPadOS

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open image and under Selection Tools, Select Subject
2. Click “refine edge”
3. Move “shift edge” slider

Expected result: edges of selection will expand or contract (did this for me as recently as 8/4)
Actual result: selection edges do not move

Have the same bug. Very frustrating!

[Ray David]

Same here.  I got so excited after watching one of the videos by Russell Brown only to see that the Shift edge doesn't work on the iPad.  If it matters, I'm using an iPad Air 5 running ios 16.6 and PS 4.8.

[Ray David]

Not sure if it matters, but I used the Marquee rectangle tool to create my mask instead

 of select subject.

Same here, I've done everything one can do to troubleshoot this issue w no avail. Everything works likes it's supposed to,... except the edge shift.

[Ray David]

Any update on a fix for this?

[Ray David]

Any ETA on getting this fixed?  I see another update was released and this still hasn't been fixed. 

[Mike Patterson]

Its been nearly 7 months and you guys havent fixed this issue. 

[bjolly88]

How is this still an issue?

[spacehunterdog]

Hi! Still not working..

[Ray David]

Seriously, still no fix???

[Mike Patterson]

Here's my customer service experiences.. ( groundhog day). After 11 months and 3 or 4 call in's.

• I get ran through the gauntlet of the same troubleshooting steps that didn't work the last time
• I'm put on hold while he looks @ notes, supervisor, community etc
• They can't figure it out but they have a team working on it, it shouldn't be long and he'll call me when it's fixed. .
• After all that hype, we hang up.. Check my email > case is closed> if I have any concerns. Call Customer
• No follow ups, no emails, no compensation. I take that back.. I do get a heart felt email asking me for my feedback to help shape the future of PS express and to take a survey on it. It's insulting.
• I sooo don't ever use PS express. Never... Only once or twice just trying it out. How can they keep introducing new features and not fix the current ones that are broken? My only conclusion to all of this is. They don't care

[Chris37934016vg53]

I came here for a solution to this same issue.  Very discouraging to see that it was reported almost a year ago with no resolution.  Indeed, the only reasonable conclusion is that they don't care.

[jensp95221534]

Yes, still broken for me as well.

iPadOS 17.5.1 on M1 iPad Air

Photoshop 5.5.2 (20240429.560)

[TomorrowUnder]

Doesn't work for me either

[pjglad]

Hello Adobe. As a common courtesy for paying customers - Is there a plan to fix? If yes, when? If no, why? Thanks for listening.

[justin_9414]

9/1/24 - still not fixed.

[Mike Patterson]

What's funny ( but not) is today I. #I told them that after 2 years of them getting my $$ that they should've had this fixed by now and it they don't have a solution in 2 months I might be forced to take it to the next level. #2 fix the broken edge shift not working or to take down the tutorial explaining how to use edge shift under the refine edge submenu. LOL. The short version of this would've been "don't hold your Breath "
* I told them to have AI fix it.

Adobe, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Can we get this fixed? I've been nice all year long but I'm afraid I'll lose my sh*t. We need to expand/contract selections before doing Generative Fills. This is a major oversight.

2.5 out of a 3 yr paid subscription 'should be ample time to fix an issue. My photography careen path has been shunted from not exploring photography w/ subjects that require intricate features to edit ie. Hair, trees. You all can keep producing new features for other apps but can't fix the broken ones that you bill ppl for. 4 to 5 times over 2.5 years I get the some blah blah blah I will give it to my beoekend support tear and will email you w/ a fix. Guess who never received an email w/ a fix? I don't have a desktop. I only have the iPad Pro 12.9" 6th gen. Utterly disheartened IS HOW I FEEL AFTER BEING LET DOWN, LEFT BEHIND, IGNORED, WHILE STILL PAYING FOR THE ONLY THING THAT REALLY BROUGHT ME SOME TYPE OF ENTERTAINMENT IN THIS GARBAGE AZZ LIFE. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING I HAVEN'T DONE THAT YOU ALL HAVE SUGGESTED AND THAT I'VE TRIED ON MY OWN. I'VE DELETED CLOSED THE ACCOUNT SIGNED BACK UP BOUGHT ANOTHER SUBSCRIPTION. ERASED THE DATA  I'VE DONE EVERY THING THAT I COULD POSSIBLY DO TO FIX THIS ISSUE WITH EDGE SHIFT I THINK IT'S SAFE TO SAY AFTER 2 1/2 YEARS YOU ALL DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT EITHER.
