    CS6 Info Palette and Group Adjustment Layer Bug

    gwlsn Community Member

      The Photoshop CS6 Info Palette is not showing before and after in Grouped Adjustment Layers.

      It only shows the after values on both sides of the Palette.

      Has anyone seen this issue and found a way to correct it?

       

      Interestingly, here at work we have two macs with the problem and two without the problem.

       

      The two macs with this problem are:

      Mac Pro

      2 x 2.93 Ghz 6-Core intel Xeon

      96 GB 1333 HZ DDR3 ECC

      ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB

      OSX Lion 10.7.5

       

       

      The two macs that work correctly are:

      Mac Pro

      2 x 3.06 Ghz 6-Core Intel Xeon

      96 GB 1333 HZ DDR3 ECC

      ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB

      OSX Lion 10.7.5

       

      Does anyone know what might cause this problem?

       

      A little frustrated by this.

          Additionally, this problem occurs in RGB, Grayscale, CMYK and LAB.

            I believe I understand what you're talking about (numbers to the left of the / and numbers to the right).

             

            For what it's worth, on my PC in 13.1.2 if I choose a single adjustment layer I see BBB / AAA numbers. 

             

            But if I choose two adjustment layers, or a group containing the adjustment layers, or all of the layers AND the group I do not see BBB / AAA - there's just one set of numbers shown.

              yes, when adding an adjustment layer inside of a group, the info pallet will display the corrected value on the left and right (bbb/bbb)

              instead of the uncorected value on the left next to the corrected value on the right (aaa/bbb)

               

              when the adjustment layer is not inside of a group, the info pallet functions as normal.

               

              its odd that two of our macs function correctly while two do not.

                I am also having this issue.  It works on my MacBook, but not my iMac.  The only difference I see is that my MacBook is running 13.0 Extended, but the problem iMac is running 13.0.4 Standard.  On the problem computer I have tried logging in as a new user (clean prefs) and the issue still exists.  I've tried changing profiles, preview and proof settings with no difference.  I've also tried different eyedropper settings (current layer, all layers, etc) with no difference.  If I drag the correction layer out of the group, the readings show correctly.  If I move them back INTO the group, they only show the corrected values. Very odd.
