P: macOS 14.1 / Photoshop 2024 v25.0/25.1 Toolbar click through issue

G'day All,

I'm not sure if this is a bug or something I've overlooked. I'm using Ps 25.1.0 (see bottom for full specs) and switched to full screen mode with panels showing. However, while I can select tools and panels, the windows outlined in magenta are not selectable. I very rarely work in full screen mode so perhaps this is normal, or maybe there's something I've overlooked? I have searched the Known Issues for my system and found nothing and searched this forum. This happens on both my Cintiq 24 Pro and my main display (BenQ) with the Cintiq turned off so as not to invoke the Wacom drivers (just in case). See below for screen shot and system particulars. Can anyone clue me in on what I may have/have not set correctly, or what the correct operation is? Thanks a bunch.

I agree, but the pallets on the right still don't work. Once clicked, they disappear.

Checking Application Frame, then dragging the Toolbar out of position, then unchecking App frame worked for me. 

Sadly the same issue has risen it's ugly head in Illustrator... although managed to fix that by simply rebuilding a new cutom Toolbar. Time consuming and very poor between Adobe and Apple. It only started hapenning after the iOS Sonoma 14.1 update so I'm mostly blaming Apple.

Hello everybody. Since a few days I cannot anymore select tools when I'm in the select and mask window. I tried this evening upgrading to ps 25.1 and also to the newest Sonoma dev beta but no luck. Bug still there. When I click on a tool it seems like it's transparent, it's like clicking on desktop. Bug is not there if I keep Application Frame on, but I don't want to use it. Same bug, but worse; also in PS beta. There every tool, not only in Select and Mask, is "transparent" unless I keep the App Frame on. Any ideas? I'm pretty desperate because I frankly hate to have App Frame on. I don't really know since when I've this bug but it's not a lot of time and my M1 Max MacBook Pro is pretty much the same; I haven't installed anything obscure or bizarre.

Hi,

I just did the update to Sonoma, working in Photoshop 2024. I am having the issue that some of the tools are not working along the toolbar. My computer won't let me change between the three types of healing brush and I can't click the marquee tool. Does anyone have a solve for this?? Still won't work even in full screen.

Thanks!

Yup. That did the trick. Thanks!

Did a whole uninstall, delete prefs, & clean install of PS 25.1. That didn't do anything. But turning on Application Frame, undock the toolbar & turn off AF did the trick.

Now at least Photoshop is usable. Awesome! 👍

Same here. At first I thought it was the update to PS 25.0.1 but after downgrading to 25.0.0 again I still had the issue, so it's definitely Sonoma 14.1. I can't even use shortcuts and I can reach just the very last tools. Super annoying.
