Photoshop CC Live Shapes Properties Bug (also in 2022)

Checking out the corner radii controls on vector shapes and it looked to be working, until I created a couple of other shapes. The Properties box inconsistently changes for the same kind of shapes.

Link to vid to show my problem: http://cl.ly/PheD

Looks like I can't go back to edit the shape for some reason. What would cause this? It's like the shape has suddenly stopped being a Live Shape.

Cheers!

What happens if you use the Path Selection Tool to select the shapes instead of the Move Tool?

I have the same issue, but then I found out you have to use the path selection tool to select the shape. The properties show up after a lag though. I also encountered a decimal bug. Values becomming 300,99 but visually it is still correct. Very annoying.

Same problem here. It's indiscriminate. Sometimes it only shows Masks rather than Live Shape Properties. Very annoying.

Wondering why there has been no response about this issue. Still seeing it occuring today.

No you are right, I now have a 'bug' error. So it basically forgets its a 'Live Shape' after you create others and go back to it. So you cannot edit it after a while. I assume this is a bug Adobe will fix. However previously I have CS6 which doesnt include this feature at all (or certainly it wasn't working on ours)

Not only does it forget that you have a live shape, you can not create a new live shape if the you have a shape layer selected. You would need to select a raster layer or group to create a new live shape... that it later forgets that it's a live shape.

I am also experiencing the same issue.

I've got the same problem. When alt-copying a live shape all seems fine, but when I copy the shape via the layer panel the live shape properties disappear!

Stop the insanity.

It appears that PS is losing the shape's designation as a rectangle with round corners – if I create a triangle immediately after making a rect with round corners, it loses its original options.

Hi Guys,

I have same problem with my CC. Live shape properties just missing when I select shape object.

Yes I only managed to get the live shape properties to work when reselecting an object once. Pity as this was the feature that made me want to upgrade.

Hi,

This bug goes a lot further than what you have stated, if you select the live shape from the tool menu on the left it removes the properties and the width becomes the width of the space.

Very strange issue's happening.

These silly bugs needs sorting out ASAP.

Selecting the shape with the Path Selection Tool seems to reset it and turn it back in to a Live Shape — but it doesn't stay that way. Really strange.
