Rotate Canvas tool self activates

[Barnack7]

I have an iMac running Mac OS Big Sur and a Wacom Intuous pen tablet. PS, Big Bur, and Wacom driver are all the latest version. Even though the Rotate Canvas Tool is not in my PS Toolbar, it keeps activating itself and rotating the canvas. How do I stop this behavior?

Thats odd almost like your "R" key is sticky. Try remove the shortcut and see if that works.

Just so we can troubleshoot

Thank you for your input Grant. Deleting the "R" keyboard shortcut does not help, even after restarting the Mac. I have have no problems with the "R" key while typing text.

What is your system like? Track pad/wacom touch... I disable my touch because of "accidental" inputs

Unclicking Enable Gestures in Preferences -> Tools did the trick. Thank you Grant!

Within the Tools tab of the Photoshop Preferences is the Enable Gestures option. Does turning this off help at all?

Bingo! Thank you so much Michael!
