P: Transform rotate handle click zone is too small (for auto-commit change)

The rotate handles' interaction radius seem so much smaller now since the patch. You used to be able to just drag pretty much anywhere and be able to start rotating, but now after the patch I have to be relatively close to the handles in order to start rotating. Quite inconvenient because there's no reason for my cursor to do anything else when in transform mode, why restrict it?

Is there any kind of setting (I couldn't find any) I can change to revert back to previous?

    Pasting the info by Olaf and Joel:

    Add OnCanvasClickToCommit 0 to the PSUserConfig.txt

    https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/enable-optional-extensions-photoshop-cc.html 

    You can disable the auto-commit. Unfortunately, this doesn't change the fact that the rotate handles are still too small (or does it? I don't recall right now).

    This feature is disastrous. We need to be able to disable auto-commit.

    Adding this to the main thread in case anyone missed Olaf's comment reply above: you can now disable auto commit (as well as the default proportional transform) with PSUserConfig.txt

    Thank you so much for the info, Olaf!! This link should be a sticky in all PS related forums. Small steps to a functioning software.

    At last you can use PSUserConfig.txt to get rid of this really annoying Auto-commit: Use "OnCanvasClickToCommit 0" https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/enable-optional-extensions-photoshop-cc.html

    Every single day, I'm interrupted, slowed down, and insulted by the busted UI of Photoshop 2019. I want to slap somebody. 

    I've half-talked the boss into canceling some of our CC seats that barely get used. He thinks I'm trying to save him money, but really I just crave revenge.

    BUMP... half a year later and nothing happened besides Adobe denying you access to older versions. Please fix this finally...unbelievable

    Once again, it seems that Adobe is pandering to people who dink around with their fingers on tablets, while destroying usability for people who need precision to get actual work done. Jeffrey, do you have any product testers working at Adobe?
