Problem with paths in Photoshop

  • January 21, 2020

A lot of the times my paths get invisible close to the edges of the image and outside the canvas. I have to zoom out of the image to be able to see the entire path again. The problem is not consistent and comes up after a while not immediately. I have multiple versions of Photoshop installed (including v21.0.2), all have the same problem. Edit>Purge>All seams to help some times, but most times I have to restart Photoshop to solve the problem!

    You could try turning "Use Graphics Processor" back on but change the drawing modes. Under Advanced settings , try Basic, Normal and Advanced. You will need to restart Photoshop each time  you change, but one of those modes may get  you working again.

        Check your PS Preferences and under the performance tab, make sure "Use Graphics Processor" is checked

        I cannot reproduce the problem so far, you may have to provide information. 

        Please read this (in particular the section titled "Supply pertinent information for quicker answers"):

        Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences (Photoshop > Preferences > Performance > Graphic Processor Settings) and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue? 

        And a stab in the dark: When the issue occurs what happens when you hide Extras (cmd-H) and then reveal them and select the Path again?

          Thanks, I think you are on to something. Hide Extras doesn't change anything however turning off »Use Graphics Processor« eliminates the problem. It's not possible to rotate the canvas and I'm constantly rotating my canvas while clipping, it makes me a lot faster. I believe the rotate function is causing the problem! I tried to avoid any rotation and couldn't recreate the problem, then I tried with rotating and the problem was there just after a few clicks. Changing the rotation will reveal the path again.
