what happened to the check icon in top toolbar

I just selected another workspace and it came back…Any idea why the workspace i was using all of the sudden stopped showing the check?

I just tried switching among all of the built-in workspaces and the check button was there in all of them. To try to figure out what happened on your computer:

• Which workspace does the check mark disappear, and is it a custom workspace? 
• Which display is this happening on, and what is the current resolution setting on that display? 
• Is the Photoshop application frame covering the entire display (maximized), or is it in one of the full screen modes?

In case you need it another time, other ways to commit the text include pressing Enter on the Numeric Keypad (not Return) or switching tools.

In addition to those great tips, a few years ago Adobe added a third way: Move the pointer outside the active text box and click to commit the changes. So really, the check button is there mostly for visual convenience since there are three other ways to commit text changes: Click outside, press Enter on the numeric keypad, or switch tools.

Also, if you like the Enter shortcut but you use a compact keyboard without a numeric keypad, most PC and Mac laptop and compact keyboards will switch the main Enter key to a num pad Enter key if you also press Fn. In other words, on a keyboard without a numeric keypad, you can press Fn+Enter to commit text changes.
