Is this the full release or beta version Daniel?  I have had icons disappear from panels in the beta version (I think) three times now.  The firsat two times I reset Preferences, which is annoying, so the third time it happened I tried restarting, and that fixed it.

 

Otherwise, do you definitely have tools in the unused right side of that panel?

Have you tried dragging tools to the right side?

Have you tried restarting Photoshop?

Try Deactivate Native Canvas in Preferences > Technology Previews and restarting Photoshop

Try resetting Preferences.

Its the full release.

I tried all that apart from resetting preferences and it didn't fix it.

How do I reset the preferences?

Do you use a custom workspace?

If yes, select the Essentials workspace, and then Reset the Essentials workspace.

If you are already uusing the Essentials workspace, just reset it.

 

I asked back up the thread if you could drag icons to the unused side of the toolbar?  Can you check that again if not already?  It's just that the default is for ALL TOOLS to be in the toolbar and the unused right side will be empty.

Are you sure that is not what you are seeing?

 

Providing your Photoshop is up to date, (go Help > About Photoshop and you should see 24.6.0) the most recent tool to be added is the Remove Tool.  Do you have that in your Toolbar?

 

If yes, what tools are missing?  

 


Hi Trevor.
I Reset the Essentials workspace, restored defualts on the toolbar and I am running 24.6.0 but the icons are still missing for first tool in every group. I can still use the tool but I have to remember which ones are which. If I change to another tool in a group that Icon works, but when I change it back to the defuat tool in th egroup its still not there. 
Is there a library somewhere that stores the tool icons that I can replace?
