Question

Photoshop keeps freezing when using adjustment palettes

I have Photoshop 21.1.3. Every time I used an adjustment palette, such as Hue/Saturation or Levels, Photoshop freezes or becomes really slow and sluggish. This has been going on for over a month now. I saw the workaround about turning off rulers. This works a little, but, the sliders are really difficult to use because the interface becomes slow and jerky. 

 

Photoshop has basically become unusable for me. How do I fix this? I have an iMac 27 running the latest version of Catalina macOS.

Developers are aware. In the meantime you can either:

1. Turn off rulers
or
2. Move the adjustment dialogue outside the Photoshop window
or
3. Use adjustment layers
