I just opened photoshop and noticed that the layer mask thumbnails on all layers are displaying green in the layers panel. And then my brush cursor was also green. I updated and now its yellow! Its not actually causing anything to malfunction but its bugging me. I want them white as normal.

Any ideas why?

Hi

What exact version of Photoshop and operating system do you have, can you post a screenshot to highlight the issue

Hi, Thanks for the reply, My system is Mojave 10.14.6 Running photoshop - 12.2.3 (though I just downgraded... as usual!)

First thought was a monitor profile issue, but you mentioned that everything else is fine, try a preference reset, you should backup any custom settings you have beforehand

Found this thread, not sure if the OP got it resolved
