I'm using Photoshop Beta 25.0.0 on a Macbook Pro OS 13.4.1

 

I have a file with two Artboards and various conten on each. Typicaly clicking on the small arrow to the right of the eyeball icon will collaps the layers of stuff on the artboard. For some reason clicking on them does nothing now. Any thoughts on how to fix?

So when you say, "yes, thats after the last update" does that mean that is a function that is no longer available? so now if I have a bunch of artboards with a long list of layers and I need to jump around, that i have to scroll up and down? and what is the point of the arrow then? does it do nothing? I feel like I'm miss understanding

I have the same problem, in todays PS beta 25.0 update can not collapse (or de-collapse) Artboards in Layers palette. On both intel (last Monterey system) and M2 Pro (last Ventura) macs.

Having the same issue. None of my artboards will collapse. Have tried multiple things such as deleting all the layers and creating a new art board. Happens with new and old PSD files.

This isn't the first time I've come across such a serious issue coinciding with a program update – it's truly frustrating, and I hope the next fix addressing this major problem gets approved soon. Hey Adobe, wake up!!!

How I'm managing to work today: I right-click on a layer within the artboard, and this way, the artboard or layer group is 'uncollapsing' ... the problem with this is the number of clicks that will only worsen your repetitive strain injury.

I indeed have the same problem in which the artboards are not collapsing. As I often work with multiple artboards, this can quickly become very frustrating. I do hope Adobe fixes this. 

Nonetheless, one workaround I now do is to group all layers into one group per artboard. This limits the need to constantly jump around in files containing multiple artboards. I have attached a screenshot to show this.

 

I hope this helps!

I have the same issues too, but I was able to just find a way around it by using grouping. so I make a group of all the layers in the artbord and then collapse that (the group).

 

But I hope they fix this in the next update.
