Photoshop not detecting copy/paste image size by default

On Photoshop v24.3.1, whenever I copy an image (from Chrome web browser) and go to paste it into Photoshop, it is not detecting the image size. Normally, when you copy and image, Photoshop will automatically detect the image size (pixels), and when you create a new image: File > New and paste the image, it will paste the actual image size from the clipboard.

 

Right now, it is using the last image size or custom image size, but not the "clipboard" size of the image.

Hi @twindeknecht, Please try checking Use Legacy "New Document" Interface in Preferences on the General tab. Is it working now? Let us know.

Hi @J E L, yes this did fix the issue! Thank you.

I wonder what changed in the latest update though? I previously was using the current New Document interface and was able to paste from clipboard.

yeah exactly, who could possibly want an incorrect clipboard-sized doc?

Indeed! It's things like this that messes up a workflow that millions of users must have used every day. I really wonder how developers got to a point to think that changing this culd be a step forward.

Thank you so much. It was making me crazy. Checking legacy "New Doc" solved the problem.
