Missing anti-alias on options bar

[Fredorigin]

Hi everyone, Help! I use Photoshop on a PC. I am working in Photoshop 2020. I have someone who I'm helping who is using Photoshop on a Mac. For Textile design I suggested unchecking Anti-alias on the options bar, however Anti-alias is missing from her options bar. Please see the attached image (Note: I adjusted the desktop to look similar to the CS versions of photoshop). Can someone please help. PS. The attached image is the screenshot she sent me. I would normally check it out on a freinds mac but am quarentined due to covid-19.

To call something smoothing vs. anti-aliasing is a bit too dumb-down!

What OS and Photoshop versions are you using.  This is what I see on Windows 10 with PS 2021 version 22.2.

Hi, I have the latest Windows 10 20H2 and the latest Photoshop 22.2.0

I have two laptops and both have the latest options as listed above.
Funny though! -- the laptop I was using for this post, a Samsung, has the icons above -- here's an example for the magic wand tool:

but my other laptop an Asus has the old text checkbox for anti-aliasing.

Why one computer has these icons and one had text checkboxes I do not know. Perhaps Adobe is testing features on random users?

You are now showing part of a different tool's option, Check the Both machine Photoshop Preferences Workspace Preference for your Tool opinion bar are set the same.

»Why one computer has these icons and one had text checkboxes I do not know.«

What is the Photoshop > Preferences > Workspace > Enable Narrow Options Bar setting. 

And please include the relevant elements in screenshots, in this case at least the Toolbar.
