P: Smart Object Accidental Rasterizing

With the latest Ps update (24.0 on MacOS 12.3.1) if you accidentally draw on a smart object, it brings up a warning dialog. That's a good thing. What's bad is that Escape will actually confirm the rasterization, as well as click the "Learn More" button, opening up the corresponding web page.

@ClaudiaR99 why doesn't it esc dismiss a window without a cancel button anymore though? It used to, for example the 'no pixles selected', that didn't have a cancel button in the 2022 version and esc cancelled it fine? Why was that feature removed? escape has worked for years and I push it automatically, seems stupid to make a change to something that worked perfectly well before.

Hello @olivierd42825091 , for warning messages without a Cancel button, Esc will not dismiss the dialog. In this case you can hit Enter on the OK button to dismiss it.

On the other hand, I can close those dialog if I hit ENTER, but my muscle memory and hand placememnt usually tends to hit ESC first, which should close or cancel any dialog IMO.

Hi,

I upadted to 24.1.1 and it only resolved the rasterization issue. The ESC key doesn't work for the error dialog when there is no layer selected and you try to move or using a brush (and maybe other tools but I didn't test that).

With the latest update that fixed the issue, the same problem began to occur with 'No pixels are selected." warning. To reproduce, add a new empty layer, ctrl-click its thumbnail and press Escape button when the warning window pops up.
