There isn't enough room to display this document

Everything was going along fine, I closed out one file and tried to open another when I got this message.   Now I can't open any documents.   What did I do wrong?

    Hi,

    The original post fixed it by resizing the Layers panel down so it wasn't taking up all of the application frame space.

    Can you go to Window> Workspace> Essentials and see what happens? Are there any panels spanning the screen?

    regards,

    Hi All,

    This issue should be fixed in the Photoshop CC 2018 (19.1.4) release which is now available. Checkout the list of fixed issues here: Fixed issues in Adobe Photoshop CC

    Please update Photoshop CC 2018 via the Creative Cloud desktop app and let us know if you continue to have any trouble.

    Update Creative Cloud apps

    Regards,

    Mohit

    Hi, I am from the future, and seems like the problem persists, even after July's 2020 Update.

    If you posting via e-mail you can not attach images.   Post from your Mac's web browser.  Some Mac user may have some idea of what is causing your problem.
