Hi everyone, Help! I use Photoshop on a PC. I am working in Photoshop 2020. I have someone who I'm helping who is using Photoshop on a Mac. For Textile design I suggested unchecking Anti-alias on the options bar, however Anti-alias is missing from her options bar. Please see the attached image (Note: I adjusted the desktop to look similar to the CS versions of photoshop). Can someone please help. PS. The attached image is the screenshot she sent me. I would normally check it out on a freinds mac but am quarentined due to covid-19.

On Windows 10 Ps 21.1.2 the lasso tool option bar looks like this:

    To call something smoothing vs. anti-aliasing is a bit too dumb-down!

      Hi, I have the latest Windows 10 20H2 and the latest Photoshop 22.2.0

      I have two laptops and both have the latest options as listed above.
      Funny though! -- the laptop I was using for this post, a Samsung, has the icons above -- here's an example for the magic wand tool:



      but my other laptop an Asus has the old text checkbox for anti-aliasing.


      Why one computer has these icons and one had text checkboxes I do not know. Perhaps Adobe is testing features on random users?


      »Why one computer has these icons and one had text checkboxes I do not know.«

      What is the Photoshop > Preferences > Workspace > Enable Narrow Options Bar setting. 

      And please include the relevant elements in screenshots, in this case at least the Toolbar.
