Opacity adjustment across open documents - BUG

[default5w4heblekm6h]

I'm encountering an issue where I change the opacity of one layer in one document, and the selected layer in another open document changes with it!

Really annoying and potentially damaging/expensive if I don't notice it's happened.

This is really to ask if anyone else has experienced this. I don't have time to list all my system specs, provide highly documented examples and so on, Adobe.

I absolutely cannot reproduce this (and have never heard of it happening to anyone else).

Try again and make absolutely sure that the intended document is the active one. If you use floating windows there is very little visual differentiation between active and background windows, and it's extremely easy to target the wrong one. I have done it myself several times, but immediately realized what had happened.

Who can tell the difference between these two:

Thanks for replying.

I don't use floating windows, I keep them all as tabs in the main window.

It happens often enough that if it's not a bug, it's a bug in the way I work. But it's hard to see how the document I'm working on, ie: actively adjusting an opacity in the layers section, can possibly *not* be the currently active one. And yet I then click on another tab, and find the current layer now has that same chosen opacity, ie: 15%, 75%, whatever.

Yup, just happened again, for sure.
