pop-ups galore

New Here ,
Mar 19, 2025 Mar 19, 2025

It's not just photoshop, it's all the apps and they seem to reset each time an app is updated (which feels like every other day) I'll get an entire new batch of random pop-ups, most of which i've seen many times already, in the middle of me trying to design which lately feels more like troubleshooting, but thats another post. Anyways, whoever is generating these pop up panes deserves a bonus because apparenty they've been working overtime. How about making a pop-up that cancels all other pop-ups? is that possible?

Hey, @martinl47934822. Welcome to the Photoshop Community. I'll take this as feedback and share it with the team. 

 

You can try enabling Photoshop's Focus Mode (Technology Preview) to limit some in-app pop-ups. 

Go to Preferences > Technology Previews > Enable Focus Mode. 

 

 

Please feel free to share your feedback on this change in the experience. 

Thanks!
