#Photoshop 2022 issues update#
You will now have 2 options, either update all plugins to the latest version or uninstall them one by one until the problem is fixed. If the error goes away, it’s clear that the cause is a 3rd party plugin. Come on Adobe, you’re letting the side down.Finally try to open and use Photoshop to see if the application is still frozen, frozen, or slow. I’m a bit surprised that this rather glaring error could be overlooked by the Adobe Photoshop team. Thankfully, this issue can be sorted in some way, but frankly, it’s a pest if you’re spending any decent time retouching. I may be out of place here trying to speak for the majority, but forgive me for believing that most users would rather there be more flawless updates at the cost of having fewer of them. That said, there’s just been a slew of poorly executed updates, and that is a scar on the whole thing. I like the fact it opens up availability to many more people due to the pricing structure, and that it allows for updates to be pushed out quickly. I’ve often advocated Adobe’s move to Creative Cloud and I still will.
#Photoshop 2022 issues windows#
So, Windows users, it would appear that your options are either to convert to 8-bit for edit, or simply go in and fully disable the GPU before working in liquify, and then coming to your senses and switching to OSX (I’m kidding). I don’t work on Windows computers, so this is second-hand information, but I’ve heard that option two above doesn’t really work for Windows users, something to do with disabling the menu or some other nonsense. Once in it, simply click on ‘Load Last Mesh’ and you’ll see the adjustments you made last, reappear. What this does is disable the GPU in Liquify (more on that in a moment). Now that you’ve done that, you can click ‘ Cancel’ in the main Liquify dialogue box, and then holding down Option/Alt select the Liquify tool from the Filter menu again.There’s no need to keep the file name in mind either, and you’ll see why. It’ll ask you where to save and typically just let it save in the location of the image being worked on. Go into Liquify as normal, make your edits, and select ‘ Save Mesh’ before exiting Liquify. If you’re with me then here are the other options: Now, of course, asking some to edit in 8-bit is tantamount to asking them walk through Tehran in a Star Of David T-shirt, and I’m in that camp, so that’s not really an option. The issue seems to only pertain to 16-bit files, so if you’re shooting 8-bit you shouldn’t notice a difference, and, therefore, you can get around this issue by simply converting the file to 8-bit prior to using Liquify.Thankfully, now that some time has passed since the issue initially arose, the boffins at Adobe have fiddled with the Rubik’s cube of a problem, and offered up the following: To be clear, the issue in my experience has arisen irrespective of the specific action tool within the Liquify toolbox, whether it be pucker, bloat, reconstruct, or forward warp, but there is a workaround. However, now in the throes of reviewing a rather good Photoshop panel, I’ve found this issue a blemish on an otherwise good day. I’d heard about the problem about a week ago, but I had friends visiting and was on hiatus from editing, and in any case assumed it was not a common experience. If autocorrect were to ‘work’ on speech, it would’ve said my first reaction to what the new Photoshop CC’s Liquify does to photos was ‘What the duck?’ Because in case you weren’t aware, with the new update came a new and exciting way to frustrate you, due to the fact that using the liquify tool to adjust an image would result in a rather large, not inconspicuous block around the area worked on as seen above.
