Bug:  Histogram Does Not Update when Using Painting Tools

I was investigating something else, and I saw something not working...  I'm under the distinct impression that the Histogram panel should automatically update after every operation.  Having the Histogram panel displayed full-time on the screen, it should always be up to date.
However, when I Dodge or Burn or even paint color on an image, the Histogram is not updating. 
If I select one of the History states I've just created, it updates.
Consider this simple sequence of operations:
I'm able to reproduce this failure in Photoshop CS5 as well, BUT NOT IN CS4 (it updates in Photoshop CS4 after every painting operation), so clearly it's not a new bug, though somehow I've managed not to notice it in my years of using Photoshop CS5.
Is it broken like this for everyone in Photoshop CS5 and 6?
Could this be some twisted attempt to try to optimize painting performance?  If so, why isn't there an option to allow a user to request it to update on every operation on a fast computer with cores out the wazoo?

More info:
Just poking around in Photoshop CS6 to see what, if anything would make the Histogram display update...
Even though the Refresh icon is disabled (and the "Uncached Refresh" entry in the fly-out menu is grayed-out), double-clicking in the topmost histogram display will force it to update (as described above by Conroy in post #1 above).
If I change the selection Channel field in the Histogram panel, mostly it does not update, but when I change between some of the settings - for example between RGB and Luminosity - the graphs update.  Amazingly they revert back to the un-updated state if I switch the channel BACK to what it was!
Making a selection DOES cause it to update.  
Choosing Select - Color Range (just starting the function) DOES cause it to update.
Hitting the quick mask mode button DOES cause it to update. Notably Edit in Quick Mask Mode is in the Select menu.  Could an association with Select be a clue?
This bug is easy to reproduce, is shown to be a problem across multiple versions and multiple OSs, and in at least one case (Photoshop CS4 x64 on Windows 7 x64 here) it can be shown to work properly, so the code is probably not far off being right.  Seems to me this should be the kind of thing a junior engineer could find and fix so someone, say,  at Chris Cox's level could have it done before 5 today...

    The problem appears to be related to jdev j2ee 10.1.3.3. I installed a fresh copy of jdev j2ee 10.1.3.3. I created a new application, project, and jsp. I placed the ${1+2} EL in the JPSs body as part of the Template Text. The EL did not evaluate.
    I then installed a fresh copy of jdev studio 10.1.3.3 and followed the exact same steps. Using jdev suite the EL does evaluate.
    It is my understanding the EL is part of the JSP API under JSP 2.0 so I would have assumed that it should evaluate under JDEV J2EE 10.1.3.3.

    Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my iPhone and iPad. Can anyone help me with this?  Is there a setting that I need to check?

    All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
    Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
    Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
    Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then?

    What is the solution for this problem?

    Right, but if you have the SIM in the tablet and you put the tablet in airplane mode, does wifi work then? If so, it may be a bad SIM. Do you have another SIM you can try?

  • Lighroom 5.4 Develop View does not update when changing sliders

    Just updated to Lightroom 5.4 (using Adobe CC) on Win8. After going to "develop view" on any photo and changing the exposure or any other slider does not update the main view of the photo. It does however update the thumbnail in the film strip and the second monitor window correctly. I've tried everything I can think of:
    (1) downgrading to LR 5.3 (which used to work)
    (2) forcing 1:1 and standard preview regeneration
    (3) uninstalling the re-installing Lightroom (both 5.3 and 5.4)
    (4) Optimizing catalogue
    (5) Removing the Adobe AppData folder
    (6) Creating a brand new catalogue with zero photos, importing a single photo and trying to change exposure/contrast on that
    None of these result in the develop view of the picture changing when I change the sliders.
    Do you guys have any experience with this?

    The chances of me suspecting monitor color profile causing bugs in LR was very slim. =)
    So were mine, especially when only the view itself doesn't work, but all other stuff works fine. Well, I probably have really not good colour profile, luckly you can change it after the lr is launched - it won't cause the problem untill next restart (at least works for me). And hopefully once my calibrator arrives lr will work ok with its colour profiles..

  • SceneBuilder 2.0 does not update when refreshing CSS

    Hello,
    when I edit my CSS-Files then the SceneBuilder 2.0 does not update the new content. I have to reopen the Builder to see my new changes. Furthermore the SceneBuilder-Preview (Strg+P) shows diffrent styled controls then the normal SceneBuilder-View. It seems that the css files does not affect the application in the PreviewPage- Thats very frustrating and ist wasting a lot of my time.
    In SceneBuilder 1.1 it works fine. But I need the 2.0 version because of JavaFX8. Is there any solution? Maybe a workaround?
    Pls look at this:

    CSS file watching has not been re-established in Scene Builder 2.0 yet : this will come soon.
    The preview issue is a different one : as suggested by David, please file a bug.
    Keep in mind that Scene Builder 2.0 is on-going work...
    and Scene Builder 1.1 is the production version.

  • Shared Variable does not update when typedef is changed

    I have a shared variable of type custom control (typedef made up of a cluster). When I chang the typedef, e.g. the name or type of one of the fields in the cluster, and then save it, the shared variable does not update to reflect this change. That is, if I place the shared variable on my block diagram and do a "UNBUNDLE BY NAME" on the output, I see the old fields. I have to go back to the properties of the shared variable, change its data type, apply it, then go back and change it back to my custom control.
    Anyone else seen this behaviour? Anyone know how to get the shared variable to update without going through this procedure?

  • Reports in BIDS does not update when stored procedure is modified

    Hi,
    I am using SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1, and BIDS 2008 SP1. The problem I am about to define does NOT happen when the report is deployed to the report server, but only within the report development environment (BIDS).
    From within BIDS my reports are fed by stored procedures. The problem is when I modify a stored procedure in Management Studio, and refresh the report from within BIDS, the report does not reflect the new changes made in the stored procedure. So far I have
    found one clumsy solution to this problem:
    1) Go to the folder where the project is saved on the file system.
    2)Find the ".data" file that is associated to the particular report, then delete it.  For instance, if my report name is TestReport.rdl, find the file named TestReport.rdl.data, then delete it.
    However, I would like to find a better, and permanent solution. Please comment.
    Thank you!

    Hi AmirBabazadeh,
    Base on my research, this issue is caused by data caching in the Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS). When we modify the stored procedure in Management Studio, but the data of the report doesn’t change, then it will try to cached data when reprocessing
    the report. In this scenario, we should try to refresh the report/dataset, or delete the .rdl.data file to avoid this issue as you are now doing.
    In order to refresh the data of the report, the following two methods are for your reference:
    Manual refresh: Re-run the stored procedure with Query Designer in Dataset Properties dialog box.
    Auto refresh: Set the AutoRefresh property of report to an appropriate value in the Properties window.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,
