Does anyone get this weird ruler placement in PS 2022?

    Thanks, Erin26. I had no rulers at all. Went into Edit > Preferences > Technology Previews > TICKED the box saying "Deactivate Native Canvases" and restarted PS. When I reopened, the rulers were automatically there! March 2023

    An update to rulers was made in the 24.2 release that should resolve this issue.  Please install the update and give it a try. If you previously checked the “Deactivate Native Canvas” checkbox in Preferences > Technology Previews… uncheck that box and restart photoshop.

    Thank you

        Hello,

         

        I've recently started using apple studio display. Everything else work just as on my Macbook pro, but Photoshop has some issues. All my apps are up to date. 

         

        As shown in the video, the picture does not show fully, it blinks every time I click on the mouse. And color looks weird and not the same as in Lightroom. 

         

        Any help would be much appreciated!

        First, try disabling GPU in the preferences (Performance). Any better?
        If not, recalibrate and build a new ICC display profile; the old one might be corrupted. If you are using software/hardware for this task, be sure the software is set to build a matrix, not LUT profile, Version 2, not Version 4 profile.

        Hello folks, 

         

        I'm attaching a screenshot here to explain what's happening with the rulers in Photoshop (Up-to-date).

        This has been the case ever since I upgraded to the new Macbook Pro 16 with the M1 Pro chip.

        It's only happening on my external 27" monitor. It seems the rulers keep the dimensions of the Macbook screen.

         

        Would truly appreciate any help on how to fix this.

         

        Thanks in advance!

        Hi

        Try disabling this option in preferences and restarting Photoshop to see if it helps

        If that dosen't help try enabling Deactivate Native Canvas again restart Photoshop

        Thank you for reporting the issue.  We have been able to reproduce in-house and a bug has been logged.

        In the meantime, the best way to avoid the issue is to go to Preferences > Technology Previews… and uncheck the “Enable Native Canvas Rulers” checkbox.  Then restart Photoshop.

        I asked about this in a separate thread here just yesterday. Wish I would have found this one first (I did search around before posting).

         

        Anyway, I ended up uninstalling and re-installing Photoshop, a rather desperate solution that did work.

        Please see the attached screen grab. I don't know what happened to cause this. The rulers are crossed in the window. The usual rulers are still on the left and top of the window. Do I just restart my machine? Or is this some kind of feature I've never seen before and can reset?

        That's not normal. I've never seen that in all the years I have had Photoshop.

         

        Here's  a few things to try:

        Use a different Workspace. Try "Essentials".  Window > Workspace > Essentials  If it is already chosen, then select "Reset Essentials." If you are using your own custom workspace, try resetting that as well.

         

        Under Edit > Preferences > Technology Previews, checkmark "Deactivate Native Canvas." Restart Photoshop.

         

        And finally, it may be due to a corrupt settings file. You would need to Reset Preferences:

        Same problem, turning off "enable native canvas rulers" in technology previews sorted it but photoshop has become slow and bloat, and many of the changes more of a hinderance than an asset these days. When I can I am using affinity photo as much as I can.
