P: Share Button Blinks Continually (23.4.1)

Report · Jul 21, 2022

I have an issue with a blinking 'share' button (see attached video) and it's driving me nuts. (imac 27", OS Monterey, Photoshop 23.4.1) My solution at the moment is a piece of paper with tape to cover it, but I'm hopeful there will be a better solution for this bug.

Please help!

Hi

The blue Share button is most annoying thing Adobe has introduced, I noticed that it flickers when I close an open document but it only happens during that time, luckily we can change the colour so it's not so annoying, thanks to this thread

You could try resetting your Photoshop preferences

Yes, the blinking thing is something Adobe did in response to the complaints about the blue button. Unfortunately, they still don't seem to understand the issue. It's now gray (blinks when first launching PS), but only when you don't have any images open. Then stupidly goes back to blue when you do.

Clicking the option to reset the preferences has zero to do with the button. That does exactly - and only - what it says. It sets the preferences back to the defaults.

Go to the page Ged_Traynor linked to. Specifically, page 3 where I updated my tip on how to "fix" the button. Personally, I don't change the white value.

The panel is a nice GUI way to do this, but I find manually editing the text file to be easier. Especially since you can then set a copy of it aside. When Adobe posts a new update for PS and the button goes back to blue, all you have to do is shut PS down and copy your edited text file back in. Done.

Same blinking issue here... and has been for quite some time. There are various fixes over the last few months but none of them work for me. I don't care about having a 'share' feature... just stop the blinking.

Anyone esle experienccing this annoying flickering of the Share, Search, Workspace menu on the top right? Been like this for a few versions now and only appears on my Mac Studio Ultra, not my Intel MacBook Pro.

This issue should be fixed in an upcoming release. Thanks everyone.

Nope. Still blinking. Still annoying.

Please fix this blue button blinking. This is after the latest 23.5.0 update. Notice the cursor tool flickers with it.

Thank you @MadDog15 for sharing the video.

It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.

Which release? Currently still having this issue on 23.5.0

Report · Sep 08, 2022

Still flickering away in 23.5.0. It is MADDENING.

Report · Sep 08, 2022

Hi @ericgordon sorry you are still seeing this issue

Let's make sure we're in a default state and there are no stale settings somewhere:

Restore your preferences using this manual method:

https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html#Manually 

Does it work correctly?

If that doesn't solve it, you can quit Photoshop and put the Settings folder back.

It may help if we could see your Photoshop System Info. Launch Photoshop, and select Help >System Info...and copy/paste the text in a reply.

Thank you,

"sorry you are still seeing this issue" ??? Nothing's been done to fix it.

I also pasted my entire system profile as instructed over two weeks ago.

No response. But the issue is still there.

It's not a pref issue. It's not a "stale settings" issue. It's not a re-install issue. It's a purposeful Adobe "Share Button" programming issue. Why does it take so much to get so little fixed? Please remove this annoying bug from Photoshop. We're paying for a monthly subscription to use your apps. There should be some sense of urgency on your part.

Report · Sep 08, 2022

Notice the cursor/tool also blinks with the button....

Please fix this.

The "fix" for this is not working. I just installed on a new Mac out of the box with all updates from Adobe and Apple. C'mon, Adobe, please talk your marketing team into letting the UI people do UI ... these things are really grating in a program I spend hours in at a time...

Hello, @MadDog15 @ericgordon and other affected users. Does the problem still occur when the neutral color option is selected in preferences? see: https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/photoshop/using/whats-new/2022-4.html#neutral-color-mode-ui

Report · Sep 16, 2022

Yep. Although it’s SLIGHTLY less obnoxious—instead of a flickering blue button, it’s a flickering outlined button.

Yes it's STILL blinking ... along with the cursor.

Why is this thread marked with "1 Correct answer" by @CShubert when it's clearly not correct?

There is no workflow scenario. It's constant.
• Photoshop has to be open.

• Then open any file (PSD, jpg, png, tiff)

• Watch cursor and share button alternately blink. (As shown in the video link I posted above.)

P: Share Button Blinks Continually (23.4.1)
