Hi all… here’s another odd bug.

Click on the brushes drop down palette thing when you have an image open. See the drop-down is resizable (bottom right corner). Resize it to make it bigger. Scroll down the list a bit. Hold the mouse over one of the brushes for 5 seconds until it auto previews that brush style in the little display area below. Then try clicking it… oops! Suddenly the scroll list jumps upwards to some random brush.

I think when the box is resized, PhotoShop gets confused about the location of the mouse cursor and gets the selection completely wrong! 🙁

Oooh and I forgot. This happens on 3 of our machines (all different Windows XP machines).

And one machine… if you choose the System Information option from the menu, PhotoShop locks up dead. :/

Hmff. Beta test anyone? 🙂

Hi!

I have Photoshop CS2, and I did exactly what you said, but I did not see any problem. So, I guess it is not really a bug.. maybe your pc configuration.
