I posted this in this discussion thread, but I wanted to be sure and report this as a bug here too.

I am using Adobe Photoshop Version: 24.4.1 20230418.r.449 53a6c60 x64 on Windows 11

I can consistantly reproduce this bug with a specific set of conditions.

It only seems to happen to Smart Objects when they are inside of folders on the layer panel, and when they are above other layers. Here's a screen recording that demonstrates this. Very strange!

Hi @dlbarr1954

Go to Preferences > Technology Previews... and enable “Older GPU mode (pre 2016)” - Restart Photoshop. Does the problem persist?

That does seem to fix it, but now all actions (panning, moving layers, scrolling) are very laggy, like a low framerate. Neither option is ideal right now so I guess I'll try this out for a bit and see if it's less annoying than randomly displaying layers.
