photoshop healing spot brush lag

[marcok8735408]

Hi, since the last update the healing brush tool is weird. It's lagging and not doing its job, the gray overlay stay without healing the photo;  it will only show the result if i move scroll the photo up/ down.  sometimes the next command of the healing brush works, and the previous one is still shown as the gray path that appears when you select the area with the healing brush tool.  any idea what i can do?

Does turning off »Use Graphics Processor« in the Performance Preferences (Photoshop > Preferences > Performance > Graphic Processor Settings) and restarting Photoshop have any bearing on the issue? 

Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Channels, Options Bar, …) visible?

hi, thank you, Use Graphics Processor ( it was disabled ) I enabled it. it works now, takes a bit longer than before the update, but happy it works at all

not sure if thats the optimal solution

You could try finding a newer GPU driver (not necessarily a solution, though) or try different »Advanced Settings« (keeping in mind that Photoshop needs to be restarted for them to take effect).
