Photoshop Version 22.5.1 Deactivate Native Canvas is checked but doesn't work well with 3D... the last version that worked well with 3D is 22.2, so I want to install and have both versions installed. I don't work with 3D often, but sometimes will want to create a 3D object and can't. 3D in photoshop is apparently not being supported in current versions of Photoshop...

So when I try to install the 22.2 version I get a message that the current version will be removed, which is not what I want to do.

My question is: How do I install the older version without removing the current version.

You will have to remove the newer version to have an earlier version of v22 installed. However, when v23 comes along, you will be able to install it and keep whatever v22.x you have installed alongside it.

From what I understand, 22.2 is the last version that works well with 3D. When 23 is released before upgrading to 23 I should remove whatever version of 22 I am on and install 22.2 before installing 23 and then I can have both version 23 and 22.2 installed at the same time.

Apparently Adobe isn't going to support 3D in versions of Photoshop going forward. I have Deactivate Native Canvas checked and it's just spotty in how it works. I don't use 3D often, but sometimes I do like to knock around with cubes...

Thanks for both responses.

Typically the new version is release on the first day of Adobe MAX (which is online and free this year). Watch for the new version to be released on October 26. If you want v. 21, install it now before then, as Adobe only offers the current and one previous version.

Hi

You can't have 2 dot versions installed at the same time, version 22.xx is the one version, so version 22.0, 22.1, 22.3 etc are all the same version, it's version 22 with dot updates
