Photoshop desktop 24.0 (October 2022 release)
The Object Selection Tool got even better at detecting and making selections, like the sky, water, natural ground, plants, or architecture. Just hover over the object and click to make the selection.
You can further refine this selection in the Select and Mask workspace and perform other adjustments.
To learn more about different selection tools and how to use them, check out Make selections in your composites.
With this release of Photoshop 24.0, you can easily remove objects from your images with the one-click Delete and Fill Selection feature and see Photoshop do its magic by seamlessly blending the background as if the object were never there.
Simply use the Object Selection Tool to make your selection and use the following keyboard shortcut to remove it:
- macOS: Shift + Delete
- Windows: Shift + Backspace
If you're working with the Lasso Tool or any other Photoshop tool, right-click the mouse to access the contextual menu and select Delete and Fill Selection to delete unwanted objects from your image.
You can easily remove objects or people from your images or retouch them even when they have complex backgrounds.
To learn more about retouching your images using selections, check out Make selections in your composites.
Use the updated Invite to edit feature to share a link to your Photoshop cloud document with as many collaborators as you want, and manage access to it as well. For now, the Invite to edit feature allows asynchronous editing where each collaborator can edit a shared cloud document, one at a time.
-
In the Share document panel that opens, you can add collaborators to the invitation by entering their email addresses. Further, you can select the gear icon to see link settings and control the access provided to your intended collaborators.
-
Type an optional note to recipients under the Message... box before sending the invitation.
Select the Invite to edit button to send your invitation.
To learn more about collaborating with stakeholders, check out Invite others to edit your cloud documents.
Beta feature available in the Photoshop desktop app
With this release, you can use our new Share for review (Beta) feature to generate a web version of both your local or cloud documents and share the document link with teammates and stakeholders to collect feedback. You can also control whether the link is public or limited to a few collaborators. This is an addition to our already existing collaboration capability — Invite to edit that lets you give access to your live document.
Follow these quick and easy steps to start sharing your files:
-
In the Share for review (Beta) panel that opens, you can:
- Type a suitable name for your document link
- Control who can access the generated link
Select Create link button to generate the link.
Further, use the three-dots () icon to Create new review link, adjust Link settings, Delete review link, and Manage review links.
To learn more about collaborating and sharing review comments, check out Share your documents for review.
Beta feature available in the Photoshop desktop app
Need to restore old photos? Try the new Photo Restoration Neural Filter (Beta), powered by AI, to fix your old family photos or restore prints in Photoshop.
Enhance your photos by following these simple steps in the Neural Filters workspace:
-
Navigate to File > Neural Filters > All filters. Select the download from the cloud () icon for Photo Restoration under the Beta section to initiate the download and enable the filter.
To learn more on Neural Filters, check out:
Pioneered by the Adobe Research team, the Substance Photoshop plugin is an extension that allows Photoshop users to access the power of Substance materials, formerly reserved for 3D native applications. Within Photoshop, these materials are great for boosting the photo-realism of architectural renditions or interior designs or as added content options for more abstract digital creations. They can be thought of like Photoshop’s existing patterns but with controls for limitless variations and a more sophisticated (and different) workflow for editing and applying than existing Photoshop patterns.
To learn more and explore how to use Substance 3D with Photoshop, see Substance 3D materials.
Content Credentials (Beta)
Beta feature available in the Photoshop desktop app
Content Credentials (Beta) is a developing feature in Adobe Photoshop that, when enabled, gathers the edits, activity, and attribution information associated with in-progress content. These details are captured as tamper-evident attribution and history data (called content credentials) that creators attach to the final content when exported.
To learn more, see Learn about Content Credentials.
Improved cloud documents version history
With the October 2022 release of Photoshop 24.0, you can also:
- Add a name and a description to bookmarked versions.
- Search for a specific version from the list of versions for that cloud document.
- Filter out versions based on the time they were created, marked status, etc.
To learn more, see Manage and work with cloud documents in Photoshop.
New Preference to Improve Selection stability (Windows only)
With this release, Photoshop introduces a new preference setting to improve the stability of the Object Selection tool, Select subject, and Sky Replacement for Windows users with an NVidia GPU.
To access the new preference on your Windows device, go to Preferences > Image Processing. Toggle the Selections Processing from Faster (default) to More Stable.
To learn more about setting preferences to make your common workflows easier in Photoshop, see Preferences in Photoshop.
GPU status indicator
When you're trying to diagnose rendering issues, there was no intuitive way to tell whether a document was rendering in CPU or GPU mode. If the GPU stops working in Photoshop, several features could be impacted. If you notice changes to any of the visuals or performance for these tools, it's best to confirm what GPU mode Photoshop is in for your document.
With this release, the new GPU Mode document status indicator will report the exact mode Photoshop's GPU state is in, allowing you to address further GPU troubleshooting steps.
To access the new GPU status indicator, open the Document Status menu and select GPU Mode to display the GPU operating mode for your open document.
To learn more about common questions related to GPU in Photoshop, see Photoshop GPU FAQ.
Older GPU Mode (Pre 2016) introduced in Technology Preview (Windows only)
Enable this feature if your graphics processing unit (GPU) is older than 2016 or does not support DirectX 12 or later, or if you experience performance instability.
When enabled, Photoshop will use older GPU protocols for improved stability. This option may also help when using virtual GPUs (as with virtual machines) or newer cards with older GPU drivers.
Restart Photoshop for the changes to take effect. By default, this option is turned off.
To enable, check Older GPU Mode (Pre 2016) in Preferences > Technology Previews.
To learn more about the various available Technology Previews and how to enable them, see Technology previews in Photoshop.
Support for Emoji Glyphs
With this release, we have removed the EmojiOne font from our bundled font set and replaced it with Noto Color Emoji SVG. When you open a legacy document containing a Type layer that uses EmojiOne, EmojiOne should be automatically activated and downloaded from the Adobe Fonts server.
To learn more about working with Fonts, see Using Fonts in Photoshop.
Photoshop (Beta)
Note:
To install Photoshop (Beta), visit the Beta apps tab of your Creative Cloud desktop app and select Install next to Photoshop (Beta).
The Live Gaussian Blur filter is a modernized approach to improving focus on a specific image part. Currently, you can access this filter with the Photoshop (Beta) app on macOS only. To install Photoshop (Beta), visit the Beta apps tab of your Creative Cloud desktop app and select the Install button next to Photoshop (Beta).
Unlike the Gaussian Blur filter, with Live Gaussian Blur you can leverage the power of the GPU while working on sample colors, pan, zoom, apply blend modes, opacity, and toggle layer visibility, all outside the dialog box and on your canvas.
To learn more about various blur filters in Photoshop, check out Use the Blur gallery.
Create and control the gradient points on canvas and perform contextual gradient editing using our Live Gradients feature. Currently, you can access this filter with the Photoshop (Beta) app only. To install Photoshop (Beta), visit the Beta apps tab of your Creative Cloud desktop app and select the Install button next to Photoshop (Beta).
Select the desired area to apply the gradient fill, and then choose the Gradient Tool from the toolbar. The gradient widget appears on your canvas, where you can adjust your gradient and see its impact in real-time. Also, you can add color stops and opacity stops, and move those to make the color, density, opacity, and blend mode adjustments to the gradient.
To learn more about using gradients to enhance your images, check out Working with gradients.
Use the power of AI with the Backdrop Neural Filter to create a unique backdrop based on a description. Navigate to Filter > Neural Filters > All filters and enable Backdrop in the Creative section. Type a description, select Create, and choose your favorite result.
Other enhancements — Snap Window Support for Photoshop Title bar
Windows users can now put to use the snap layout support in Photoshop (Beta). This feature follows the one found in Windows 11, which allows application windows to snap dynamically to pre-configured regions of the display.
To install Photoshop (Beta), visit the Beta apps tab of your Creative Cloud desktop app and select the Install button next to Photoshop (Beta).
Simply hover your mouse over a window’s maximize/minimize button or press Win + Z. You'll see the preset options for organizing your app windows, considering your current screen size and orientation.
The snap layout support in Photoshop is enabled by default on Windows machines.
