In the previous version, a selection was created, and the picture in the right-click selection would pop up and display other layers.Now this function seems to be missing? Now this window can only pop up outside the selection!

Correct answer jane-e

I did not have this situation in the lower version until 2021-2022.

I have six versions of Photoshop installed on this computer. Here is PS 2019.

Selection tool inside selection with right-click

Selection tool with selection outside selection with right click

Move tool with selection inside selection with right -click

OR

with Selection tool with Control+right click (shortcut for Move tool)

It works the same way in 2019 as it does in 2022.

With a selection made, if you right-click you get the selection context menu. Ctrl + right-click will give you the layers list

look,Watch this video. The right button will never pop up in the selection area, only outside the selection area.

When I have the Move tool with or without an active selection, right-click works by itself as it has since at least CS6, maybe earlier. With the Selection tool I need Command plus right-click, whether or not I have a selection (Control on Windows).

Can you test to see if this is how it works for you?

Quite honestly, I don't think I've ever made a selection first. It might be different on Windows, but try using the Move tool with or without an active selection.
