iris blur tool does not show the blur adjustment handles

[nielsv73347782]

Hi,

I want to use the iris blur tool from the blur gallery but my iris (elipse) does not show the blur adjustment handles. It only has the increase/decrease/ shape change handles. See the screencap below. Is there a box I need to chek? I cannot find it. thanks.

Hi

Try resetting your Photoshop preferences

Also what exact version of Photoshop do you have, PS CC2019 is not supported for Windows 8.1

Hi! After installing version 21.2, this problem with the blur gallery filters occurred. In the last previous update I did this procedure and it worked, but this time when upgrading to version 21.2 the problem is not solved by doing this procedure. I tried to reset all preferences, but it didn't work for me. I use photoshop on Mac OS High Sierra version 10.13.6. I also tried to reset all preferences when starting photoshop with the command (cmd + shift + alt) and it didn't work.
I even tried to uninstall photoshop and reinstall, but I was not successful with the problem. Can you help me with this problem, please?iris blur problem. Help!

Okay, resetting all the preferences worked for me, but I must say it's a kluge answer.  Fortunately I had just recently saved the toolbars setup that took me hours to tweak to my liking.... I hope you'll soon have a more focused (yes, intended it, no, not sorry) solution for this bug.

My Iris blur controls are off to the side. How to I recenter them inside the iris blur circle?

Hi

This is on page 232 of the Classroom in a Book for Photoshop 2021. Can you show the Blur Tools panel on the right side?
