Hey!

Just updated my Photoshop to 23.3 version. And when I'm trying to open any RGB file - it opens with all layers colored in white color. Seems like RGB is not active at all.

IF I transfer it into CMYK - all good.

 

Windows 10 Home.

Below is the print screen of RGB file turned into CMYK. Cuz I was unable even to make a printscreen in RGB.

This should be fixed by the 23.3.1 update that just went out.

Try this: Go to Preferences > Performance... click Advanced Settings... and uncheck "GPU Compositing" - then restart Photoshop. Does the problem still occur?

Hi everyone. Strange issue here that I've never seen or heard of before. Windows 10, updated version of Photoshop CC 2018. Tried installing CC 2017 and 2015.5 and the same issue happened. When I open any image file (PNG, etc) it loads the file but nothing appears. I can see the layer in the layers panel, so it seems like it loaded, but nothing shows on the workspace screen. Imagine if you had moved the canvas off-screen - it's like that, except "fit on screen" and zooming in or out doesnt help. The same issue happens when I create a new project file. I see the artboard or layers panel, but nothing visually appears. I tried running the Creative Cloud cleaner tool, reinstalling, deleting preferences, everything. Disable GPU is hidden (Greyed out). Any ideas? Thanks!

Not sure if this will help but try disabling what's in red and put a check mark in Use Legacy "New Document" Interface

Thanks for the response! So, I actually had just tried that before you suggested it and it didn't work, but I did fix the issue! I had to go into advanced settings, change drawing mode from "advanced" to "basic", clicked ok and then unchecked "use graphics processor" — this fixed the issue. Any idea why that would have fixed it? The other issue I have is, the same thing is happening in Illustrator. Opened files and new documents are blank (no workspace). The preferences are obviously different, so I'm now trying to resolve that. Thanks again!

Photoshop can be a bit problematic when it comes to GPU's at times, the only thing I can suggest is updating the Intel drivers from here

Downloads for Intel® HD Graphics 620

For Illustrator try disabling GPU performance in preferences see if that helps

I have a Intel 520 Laptop and don't have any issues with the on-board GPU

Hello. I just updated Photoshop 2020 and every time I open a file is all white. I can see my layers on the layers tab but can't display my layers on the workspace.

Has anyone encountered this problem?

Hi there,

 

We are sorry about the experience with Photoshop 2020.

 

Would you mind sharing the version of the operating system you are working with? You can try going to the Preferences of Photoshop, then Performance and uncheck the option to Use Graphics Processor? Once done, quit and relaunch Photoshop to check if that helps with the preview of the document.

Go to Photoshop--> preferences--> performance-->check the legacy compositing then exit photoshop and then relaunch photoshop.

That's what the help chat told me to do and it worked.

Hello, FYI, it tells you that there is a problem with your GPU/GPU driver, try to update its drivers, and then to uncheck the preference, so that you can use the GPU acceleration
