New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….
Original story (published on July 1, 2022) follows:
Adobe Photoshop is undoubtedly one of the most popular image editing software available on the internet. Used by millions worldwide, the raster graphics editor uses the PSD and PSB file format.
It can also be used to edit vector graphics to a certain extent and features several independently developed plug-ins that might add new features and improve existing ones.
But no matter how good a software is, bugs like smart vector objects not opening in Illustrator on macOS 12.3 and the app crashing on touchscreen Windows devices often trouble many.
And now, Adobe Photoshop users are facing a new issue where the Clipboard dimensions are not the same as the image size.
Reports suggest that the problem surfaced after the recent v23.4.1 update. Some tried resetting all settings and reinstalling the app but to no avail.
Thankfully, an Adobe employee commented on the matter and said the developers are aware of the issue where the Clipboard dimensions are not the same as the image size and are currently looking into it.
They also shared a workaround that requires users to rename the UXP folder to ~UXP in the Adobe Photoshop installation folder.
In case the aforementioned trick did not help, try switching to the Legacy ‘New Document’ interface by navigating to Edit > Preferences > General.
Last but not the least, you can try copying the image, then go to File > New > Clipboard and select custom canvas size.
