Question

Marching Ants Toggle

Hi,

Just upgraded to Photoshop 2019; some of the new features are really cool, particularly the preview on the layer modes!

However I've been using the lasso tool and the tool settings seem to be different. It shows no tooltip or marching ants, only toggling the marching ants once the mouse is released. That won't work for me!

How to I change this setting?

Thanks,

Laura

    If you're not seeing the line that the lasso tool makes while drawing, try checking "Legacy Compositing" in the preferences under performance. There seems to be a lot of issues relating to it. You'll need to restart PS.

    Hmm, I found the Legacy Compositing preference and restarted PS 2019, but doesn't seem to have solved the issue.

    Then try resetting your preferences.
