        HI @lasse98A1 if you are on a Mac that option is not available.

        Hello everyone! 

        Since I've updated Adobe Photoshop to it's newest version, 24.4.1, everytime I open the program my screen glitches black to white and viceversa. 

        I downgraded but I needed the latest version. I've checked the GPU, ecc. but everything seems okay.

        Can someone help me? Right now I can't use the program and I really need it for work!

        Checking "Older GPU Mode" fixed the strobing.... However!

        The entire program is dramatically slower now. Sad to see you're not supporting older devices. After being loyal to Photoshop since 2010 I will finally have to look for a new graphics editor.

        Several folks have reported slower performance when checking "older GPU mode". Many with older GPUs have had better success with doing this instead:

        Preferences > Technology Previews > Enable "Deactivate Native Canvas" > Restart Photoshop

          English isn't my main language so I hope someone understand what I'm writing. 


          Photoshop doesn't work all the time for me. Sometimes it works perfectly fine but most of the time the picture I want to edit only flashes (I don't know how to explain so I'll insert a link to show).

          I've tried to search but can't find it. Any ideas? 


          I used PS one week ago and it worked all ok. The time before that it flashed. And I've tried again today and one picture works without flashes but the rest does. Doesn't matter if I try to open one picture one by one.

          Hi

          Go to Preferences > Technology Previews and check Deactivate Native Canvas. Then close and restart Photoshop.

          Olá, estou com um problema no photoshop que gera quadrados brancos ao trabalhar com imagens dentro de uma prancheta. Esses pixels brancos aparecem ao transformar camadas, mover camadas ou usar pincel. Em alguns momentos também ocorreu que a imagem está corrompida. Quando a imagem corrompe dentro do photoshop descobri como escapar do erro. Preciso voltar em um processo (ctrl + z) e converter a imagem em um smartobject, fazendo esse processo consigo transformar a imagem sem que ela seja corrompida.
Isso aconteceu em dois computadores diferentes, um com processador Ryzen 9 de 64 GB, com SSD M.2 e placa de vídeo Raedeon RX5600 XT, e outro com processador Xeon de 44 GB, também com SSD M.2, sem placa de vídeo , ambos os computadores com Windows 10 operacional.
Também tenho problemas com alguns vídeos dentro do After Effects, em alguns casos há falhas na tela dos vídeos.
Já tentei tirar a memória ram e trabalhar só com pendrive, trabalhando direto dentro de um HD externo, tirando a placa de vídeo.
Mas, infelizmente, nada foi possível para corrigir esse erro.
Em anexo print e vídeo do bug.
Não encontro nada parecido na internet e só posso pedir ajuda na comunidade.
Muito obrigado antecipadamente.
