Question

Photoshop CC 21.1.0 so many issues

I should be happy, since the latest PhotoshopCC update to version 21.1.0, all lasso tool issues are gone but OH BOY, II got so many new problemes with now, I'd wish to have my lasso tool isues back, instead of this newer version going crazy:

If using hand tool + rotation tool, it automatically flips back to the initial position.

If scaling up or down (whatever) brush, it get's uncontrollable slow.

Photoshop doesn't follow up the amount of opacity when scaling it down a layers visability.

Sometimes pen tool just does NOT react or react 2 seconds delayed

Curser redomly transforms into a (to me unknown) tool, if switchen layers on and off.

Photoshop magicly draws lines all over the screen if I move the the cursor around while having pen tool selceted. This only happens if I use the mouse (!!!)

What the heck is going on over there 😄 ?!

I'm using:

Photoshop CC 2020 + Wacom intuos pro. Windows10. Nvidea Geforce 660M

PS update has many problems.  How can I go back to PS before the update?

Hi, I'd first try 21.2.1, and if it does not work, you can install an older version alongside: https://helpx.adobe.com/be_en/download-install/using/install-previous-version.html

 

But please list the windows ink problems you have and search or create a thread on the https://feedback.photoshop.com site, watched by Adobe staff. Make sure to provide as many relevant details as possible.

They tried to fix something that was already perfect. So many shorcuts already rooted in our minds changed for money.

Same here, had to roll back to the previous version because in things like the Brightness adjustmnent tool, the brightness only updates when you release the mouse and not in realtime as you slide the slider.

We are having several issue with this latest version as well.  Bugs we are experiencing:

-keyboard shortcuts, such as brush increase ] and brush decrease ] just not working

-input lag using various pens and tablets including latest Cintiqs

We will try rolling back to 21.0.3 as well

I rolled back as well. 21.1.0 is simply too buggy to work with. Buttons in the layer panel sometimes get stuck, making it impossible to create groups, layers or masks through those buttons.
I'm pretty sure before it was also possible to first press down the stylus and only then hold shift to draw a straight line. It now forces you do it the other way around. Random lines sometimes shoot over the screen for no apparant reason, a Wacom related issue I haven't seen in ages.

If it's any consolation to anyone, none of these things, including Wacom tablets, are happening on the Mac in Catalina.

This version is completely unusable for my part, I have a brush problem which is preselected automatically even when changing tools. I have a layer problem that doesn't want to move either and goes backwards.

Anyway it's hell I use a Wacom intuos tablet.

Yes Windows Photoshop version 21.1.0 has major problems with its tablet support reinstall 21.0.3.

If you are using WinTab with Photoshop and Wacom pen switch to Windows INK API . Or go back to using PS 2020 21.0.3

No Windows Ink means no pen pressure. It's not going to work out for me.

I can configure Photoshop 21.1.0 and my Wacom to use Windows INK for pen pressure.   However, I do have other issues using INK with Photoshop 21.1.0 and my Wacom Intuos.  The only solution is to reinstall 21.0.3

Yep it's a mess of an update, Adobe said performance improvements and bug fixes, looks like they introduced more bugs than they fixed, I went back to version 21.0.3 and all is good again 🙂

You can roll back to 21.0.3 via the CC app to a not so buggy version

You can find lots of unhappy Windows users here

Yep, so I'll go back to an older version...
Fun fact about photoshop family. Wanted to post this wonderful text there but guess what: Also there the situation seams out of controlle, since I'm not able to log in for about 3-4 days now 😄 
Sometimes, I'm asking myself, why do I have to pay 60 bugs a month for that crap?
