R_Kelly Oct 25, 2013 11:33 AM (in response to rickman34)Is photoshop up to date?
(Help>Updates)
See if turning off the Generator plugin under Edit>Preferences>Plug-Ins makes any difference.
(uncheck Enable Generator)

rickman34 Oct 25, 2013 11:48 AM (in response to R_Kelly)Unchecking "Enable Generator" solved the problem!! Hooray! Thanks for the help. By the way, what is the Plug-ins Generator?
Why does it disable layer adjustments in actions?
Oh, and I'm using version 14.1.2.

3. Re: PhotoShop CC will not play Layer Adjustment Actions Correctly
JJMack Oct 25, 2013 12:28 PM (in response to rickman34)Adobe added the adjustment panel in CS4. Adobe also changed how the action recorded records adding adjustment layers in CS4. Before the Adjustment panel when you clicked on one of the add adjustment layer icons Photoshop would open the adjustment type options dialog window which you would set and commit. When you committed the settings the action recorder would record a single step that added the adjustment layer with the setting you set. After Adobe added the adjustment panel the action recorder records a step Make adjustment layer Adjustment type preset default as soon as you click on the adjustmet type icon. If you then make changes to the settings when you move onto the next Photoshop operation the action recorder records a second step Set current adjustment layer to type preset kind custom and settings. Adobe also introduced many problems with the adjustment panel. The two step recoding can be a problem because it possible to add steps between the two steps and the step set current adjustment layer will fail if the targeted layer was changed by the addition. The adjustment panel also has two options in its fly-out menu the change Photoshop operation. They can break new and old actions that add adjustment layers. For how adjustment layers will get added may not be the way they were added when the action was recorded. These options work more like global Photoshop Preferences actions have no control over. However the options do not alway work like set. So if you try real hard you can record actions that add adjustment layers that will alway work the way you designed your action to work. Adobe does not want to fix these problems. I tried to get Adobe to fix these bugs for years. I have now given up.

JJMack Oct 25, 2013 12:33 PM (in response to rickman34)The plug-in is for WEB development stuff looks like it also breaks things. The is not the first thread I have see that turning off generator fixes thing that use to work. The plugin seems to spits out extra files for users html needs. http://blogs.adobe.com/photoshopdotcom/2013/09/introducing-adobe-generator-for-photoshop-c c.html

R_Kelly Oct 25, 2013 12:31 PM (in response to rickman34)Moe info on the Generator :
https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/generate-assets-layers.html
I'm not sure, but i thought that was supposed to be fixed in the 14.1.2 update.
Anyway, i got the same results as you did when i enabled the generator plugin, which i usually have turned off.

JL Garcia me Jul 15, 2014 3:07 PM (in response to rickman34)Since installation of the last version of Photoshop CC 2014 I noted that the Curves adjustment layer doesn't show. I have to restart Photoshop in order to this adjustment layer to appear again in the menu at the bottom of the Layers panel. The Generator is off, since I was working in a print material.

R_Kelly Jul 15, 2014 6:45 PM (in response to JL Garcia me)I don't think that has anything to do with the generator plugin, but is possibly a glitch specific to photoshop cc 2014.
You should report the issue here

Chris Cox Jul 15, 2014 7:22 PM (in response to JL Garcia me)We've had a few reports of the curves adjustment not showing in the menu.
It seemed to be caused by a conflict with third party plugins.

JL Garcia me Aug 6, 2014 9:53 AM (in response to R_Kelly)Yes, I don't think it has to do with the Generator. It happens apart from generator.

SG... Dec 2, 2014 9:48 PM (in response to R_Kelly)Hi R_Kelly,
You picked up on those quick. :-)
We have a bug logged to investigate this issue of adjustments not being recorded. For those with 15.2, the Library panel is getting in the way, so closing it (and restarting) should allow you you to record actions as expected. If that alone doesn't help then make sure to disable Generator in the prefs. as well.
regards,
steve
