Screen Tearing PS CC 2018

I recently installed Photoshop CC 2018 and I noticed when I was drawing I could see something of a screen tear, it only seems to show up in Photoshop so I'm assuming it has something to do with the application and not my computer. It doesn't stay in one place either as it moves around with me on the canvas. I have also noticed it only appears in full screen mode. It's not too noticeable but it is bothering me quite a bit. In case it's important, I am currently running the latest version of Windows 10.

Does anyone else have this problem and know how to fix it?

I'm not sure if you can see it too well but it does appear down the middle of the screenshots.

this seems to be a bug with the ruler tool. press ctrl+r to bring up the ruler in full screen mode to have this tear go away. you will have to deal with having the ruler on your boarders at all times but its better then the tear IMO. let me know if this helps bud

    This is probably the worst update since CC came about in regards to bugs that need addressing. I ran PS CS6 recently on a tiny i3 8GB with onboard graphics and the application ran like an absolute dream. Today I'm producing a movie poster on an i7 4790k 32GB GTX970 using PS CC 2018 and the application is running like an absolute dog.

      Hi

      Yes, I can see that tearing in the attached screenshot also, I have tried testing it out at my end and its working fine.

      Please let us know which brush preset are using in Photoshop CC 2018, also you may try and reset the Photoshop preferences and check if that helps. Refer: Preferences in Photoshop

      Regards,

      It seems to occur with all the brush presets that I have tried using. I have tried resetting the preferences but it does not seem to help. Even reinstalling Photoshop did not fix the problem unfortunately.

      Hi AttikusParhs,

      Have you ever noticed this issue in the previous version of Photoshop? Is it possible for you to share your workflow with us.

      Regards,

      Mohit
