Checking out the corner radii controls on vector shapes and it looked to be working, until I created a couple of other shapes. The Properties box inconsistently changes for the same kind of shapes.

Looks like I can't go back to edit the shape for some reason. What would cause this? It's like the shape has suddenly stopped being a Live Shape.
Cheers!
What happens if you use the Path Selection Tool to select the shapes instead of the Move Tool?

Hi Jack,
I moved your discussion from the Creative Cloud forum to the Photoshop forum, where you may get more relevent help more quickly.
Could you please post a screenshot of your layers panel?

I have also found this when copying a live shape using the layers panel. When I select the copy the live shape properties are not available. Seems that using the direct selection tool usually switches it back.

Selecting the shape with the Path Selection Tool seems to reset it and turn it back in to a Live Shape — but it doesn't stay that way. Really strange.

Hi,
This bug goes a lot further than what you have stated, if you select the live shape from the tool menu on the left it removes the properties and the width becomes the width of the space.
Very strange issue's happening.
These silly bugs needs sorting out ASAP.

Hi Guys,

Cheers,

Yes I only managed to get the live shape properties to work when reselecting an object once. Pity as this was the feature that made me want to upgrade.

I've got the same problem. When alt-copying a live shape all seems fine, but when I copy the shape via the layer panel the live shape properties disappear!

Stop the insanity.

It appears that PS is losing the shape's designation as a rectangle with round corners – if I create a triangle immediately after making a rect with round corners, it loses its original options.

I get exaclty the same issue - although right from the start I never see the correct Properties panel for Live Shapes. I also see the MASK panel as shown in the post above

Keith has hit the nail on the head. What's the point of live shape properties if you can't access them once the document has been closed. Unless I am missing something I have this same issue, and it's infuriating. Does anyone have a fix for this, or an eta on a fix.....

I updated to the latest CC the other day. I have noticed the past few days I have not had the problem any more. It all works fin for me.
I believe you have to use the select tool (A) , but make sure you have selected "Path Select" ( the black pointer with the white outline) and not "Direct Select" of the 2 options
Then when you select the shape, in the properties panel select the "live shapes properties" button to the left of the "mask" button at the top. I have noticed it always goes back to the mask tab, so have to always click the properties tab.

Awesome! Thank you SO much, I really appreciate you taking the time to respond. The live shape properties where driving me batty.

The same here, I can see the color, stroke and even size, but forget about the Border Radius, I've seen every video, and I can't find where to edit the shape.

Simply use the hollow point tool, select a point on the live shape, and see the "live shape properties" reappear...

I am also experiencing the same issue.

Same problem here. It's indiscriminate. Sometimes it only shows Masks rather than Live Shape Properties. Very annoying.

Wondering why there has been no response about this issue. Still seeing it occuring today.

My issue was somewhat skewed by the fact that Adobe seems to have 'stealthed' Adobe CC in as opposed to the cloud based CS6 we are signed up for. That feature works fine in CC but not in CS6, so we had to download and install that version now.
