Photoshop CC 2014 - color panel resizing by itself?

Hello,
I am wondering if anyone else has reported (or even experienced) the new color panel in Photoshop CC 2014 resizing itself when maximizing and then restoring the Photoshop CC 20114 application frame?
Here are some images to illustrate the issue I am experiencing:
This is on initial launch of PS CC 2014 after install and then reboot.
This is the initial maximize of PS CC 2014 application frame (using green button).
This is the initial restore command (using green button).
This is the second maximize (using green button).
This is the second restore command (using green button).
This is the third maximize (using green button).
... and the fourth maximize (using green button).
As you can probably see through the progressive process that the color panel is stretching vertically with each maximize / restore combination. It seems to stop stretching after the fourth series.
Machine specs:
MacBook Pro 17" (late 2011)
2.5 Ghz. i7 Intel Processor
AMD Radeon HD 6770M - 1 GB VRAM
16 GB RAM - OWC Brand
480 GB SSD - OWC Brand
OS X 10.9.3 - Clean Install (all updates installed)
PRAM and SMC refreshed
Permissions repaired
Disk verified
Clean Install of:
Adobe Creative Cloud app
Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 app
Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 app
No plug-ins or other third-party add-ons.
I thought I would mention it in case this hasn't been reported yet (or perhaps there is something bizarre going on with my machine).
Thanks for any insight or acknowledgement.

Just giving this a bump and a quick note.
I just performed a clean install of OS X 10.9.3 again on machine spec'd above and then installed Photoshop CS6 and Illustrator CS6 perpetual license versions. While the new color panel seen in PS CC 2014 is not part of CS6, I wanted to test to see if the color panel was resizing itself as I saw with PS CC 2014. It is not.
I am running Adobe CC 2014 versions at work on a Dell workstation under Windows 7 Professional. I will test on that system to see if the same resizing of color panel by itself occurs and post back sometime tomorrow.
Note - if an engineer, staff member or moderator could mention whether this has been logged as a potential issue that would be great. I will of course log a report with a link to this post this morning.
Thanks for any response.

  • Images look less saturated in Photoshop CC 2014

    I import my RAW images into Lightroom 5 and make some basic adjustments.  Then I edit the image in Photoshop with the Lightroom adjustments.  I clean up the images and crop to the size I like and then I use the Perfect Effects 9 plugin to do some more edits.  I finish my edits in Perfect Effects 9 and save them which brings me back into Photoshop CC as a new layer.  In Photoshop the image looks less saturated than it did in Perfect Effects 9.  I then save the Photoshop file and exit.  When I look at the PSD file in Lightroom 5 browse window, it looks the same as it does in Perfect Effects 9.  Why does it look less saturated in Photoshop CC 2014?
    Here are my colour settings:
    Lightroom 5:
    External Editing:
         Edit in Adobe Photoshop CC 2014:
         File Format = TIFF
         Color Space = AdobeRGB(1998)
         Bit Depth = 16
         Resolution = 240
         Compression = zip
    Additional External Editor:
        Preset = Perfect Effects 9 Suite
        File Format = PSD
        Color Space = AdobeRGB(1998)
        Bit Depth = 16
        Resolution = 300
    Perfect Effects 9:
    General:
         Working Color Space = sRGB IEC61966-2.1    
    Files:
         Copy Options:
         File Format = PSD
         Color Space = sRGB IEC61966-2.1
    Plug-ins:
         Lightroom:
         File Type = PSD
         Color Space = Adobe RGB 1998
    Photoshop CC 2014:
        Color Settings:  Custom
        Working Spaces:
        RGB = sRGB IEC61966-2.1
        CMYK = U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
        Gray = Dot Gain 20%
        Spot = Dot Gain 20%
    What color settings do I need to use so that the images have the same saturation look in all three programs? How do you know which image in which program is showing as the correct saturation?

    No, just keep it at sRGB. As long as you have the "preserve" policy, the working space actually isn't all that important. The embedded document profile will always override it (as it should).
    I had to read this a couple of times to follow the trail properly. Leaving Perfect Effects (which I don't know at all) out of it - does the very same file iteration, with the same edits, look different between Photoshop and Lightroom? Did I get that right?
    In that case you have a bad monitor profile. This can sometimes throw off one application but not the other. Recalibrate, or if you don't have a calibrator go into Windows color management and set sRGB IEC61966-2.1 as default display profile. When done relaunch all applications so that they can pick up the new profile at startup.

  • Color Swatch changes when opened in Photoshop CC 2014

    I'm not sure if anyone else has encountered this, here is the scenario:
    I create a CMYK color swatch in Kuler and save the swatch, download it as a .ase file, and then load the swatch in Photoshop CC 2014. 
    When the swatch is loaded all of the colors are lighter than the colors in my kuler swatch.
    The below image shows the top kuler swatch, and the colors that were imported once loaded in Photoshop.
    TOP: screenshot of my kuler swatch from the kuler website
    BOTTOM: screenshot of the colors from my swatch once imported into Photoshop CC 2014
    Does anyone know why this is happening and how it can be fixed?
    Thanks!

    That's because color management is different in Kuler and PS.  The good news is that Kuler Panel is now available for PS 2014 at  https://creative.adobe.com/addons/products/2507
    You can directly set active color from this panel or include the whole theme into the swatches panel without change in appearance.

  • Can't access my camera color profiles in Photoshop CC 2014 latest update under Yosemite

    I normally have profiles for each camera made by X Rite Color Checker and these are available when processing RAW files. Under Yosemite on a new 2013 Cylinder Mac Pro, Photoshop RAW developer cannot access the profiles.
    I discovered that the Adobe Submenu "RAW" was missing so I copied it from my Mac book Pro. however, the profiles still cannot be accessed by Photoshop CC 2014 on this computer.
    Any ideas?
    As a secondary issue, Adobe DNG maker won't accept RAW files from my Sony A7R, but it did in the past on the Macbook pro running Mavericks.
    Thanks for your insights,
    Asher

    OK, I am not entirely sure I have understood your post completely, but when you edit a colour range with a Hue/Sat layer, and click off and back on again, it will default to showing the RGB values, which you may not have made any adjustment to.  If you pick the previous colour from the image, or a similar colour, it _will_ show you the adjustments.  So long as your picked colour is contained within the range of the previous adjustment.
    Ypu could also use the RGB drop down (actually they call it Master nowadays), and chose the colour that is closest to your previously picked colour.  I expect you are away that you can edit the colour range being operated on by dragging the four sliders on the two colour bars at the bottom of the Properties panel.
    Does that make sense, or am I going in the wrong direction?

  • Problem of color spaces when i switch between photoshop cc 2014 and lightroom 5.7. where to ask

    hallo,
    where can we ask questions on photoshop cc 2014 tools ?
    i have a prophoto nef in lightroom which is retouched.
    i edit in photoshop cc to make a selection and come back to lightroom with a huge psd.
    it says color space of photoshop is not correct and advises prophoto. i say yes.
    first one day i lost the pen tool mask when i wanted to re-edit from lightroom. fortunately the version of psd on hard disk was ok. never understood what happened
    second is i want to open a jpg background on my hard disk, perhaps srgb, in photoshop and add the selection.
    how to manage color spaces because my colors of the selection or the background become ugly
    not sure i still need to use lightroom for this step. bridge or photoshop itselfs can open files,...
    best regards
    marc

    That's great, but what exactly did it - matrix (gamma) profiles instead of LUT? It would be good to know for future reference.
    I have seen small problems with LUT profiles in Firefox, like black clipping up to value 6 or 7, but Lightroom seems to behave well with LUT profiles here. The problem with LUT profiles is that they are "heavier" and more complex, because they contain complete tables for all possible transformations - whereas matrix profiles do it by much simpler mathematical formulae. LUT is more accurate, but matrix simpler and more reliable.
    Not that I think accuracy is a problem with Eizo CGs. Which is why it's a bit puzzling that ColorNavigator has LUT as default. I use mostly matrix targets these days, my feeling is that the simpler the profile, the better.

  • CC 2014 nik efex - My Nik Efex filters are not working in Photoshop CC 2014 - they appear under plug-ins and seem to work, but after running and clicking okay, no new layer appears - seems to have no effect.  The separate menu panel does not appear either

    My Nik Efex filters are not working in Photoshop CC 2014 - they appear under plug-ins and seem to work, but after running and clicking okay, no new layer appears - seems to have no effect.  The separate menu panel does not appear either.  Help with this?

    BINGO !!!!
    Thanks so much Woodsroad. I had the exact same problem with my Dell Windows 7 64 bit with AMD Radeon 6700 Video card.
    All the video tests passed with flying colors.
    The sniffer rename trick fixed the problem.
    Thank goodness for the internet!

  • Since I ipdated photoshop CC 2014, my layers and brush panels (and others) will not stay open. AS soon as I open them, they close. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

    Trying to open my layers or brush panels in photoshop Cc 2014 and they won't stay open. They close as soon as they open. This started immediately following the latest update that I ran today.

    Try resetting the PS preferences and check if it's an issue with corrupt preferences : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/375776
    Try to open PS in Plugin Disabled mode and check the same. For that Press Shift+PS icon and hit Yes.

  • Adobe Exchange Panel for Photoshop CC 2014

    I'm trying to get the Adobe Exchange Panel for Photoshop CC 2014 (Mac 10.10.2).
    When searching for it on Adobe.com, all I get is the download for CS6. Is this the SAME Exchange Panel usable in CC 2014?
    Thanks for any guidance.

    I'm having problems searching out any updates. It's like they silently retired it after CC.
    This is the last mention of it:
    Adobe Exchange Panel – 1.1 Update for CC apps now available
    Since it's a flash panel, it wouldn't work in CC 2014 which has gone to HTML5 panels

  • Photoshop CC 2014 No Longer Displaying Blue In The Color Picker Or Workspace, Only Purples.

    Photoshop CC 2014 is no longer displaying blue in the color picker and on screen, only purple, violet, magenta, etc. I think it started about 3 days ago. Our current model 2.9 GHz iMac with NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 1024 MB Graphics Card and 8 GB RAM is calibrated to 100% via Spyder 4 Express, and reflects that in every application except Photoshop CC 2014, so I know it isn't the monitor. Blue is the primary color we use in many of our designs, so this is of upmost importance. I really appreciate any help you could provide, If this isn't fixed ASAP, I don't know what we'll do.
    Thank you so much!

    Ok, so old files are purple, but new files are blue.
    I took a screenshot of my Photoshop work are using Cmd-Shift-3 and it places the screen shot as a png file on my desktop, which I upload with my reply via the Camera icon in the forum reply toolbar.
    I loaded a new RGB/8 file, set the bottom status bar to indicate the color profile (sRGB) and made sure the file tab on the top is visible, so I can see it is RGB/8. Then I used Cmd-shift-k to show my Color Settings before taking the screenshot. The point is to try and see where the problem is coming from, so make a screenshot just like mine with your old purple file.

  • [Photoshop CC 2014] Click&hold-move-release doesn't work when adding adjustment layer from the layer panel

    When selecting a menu item I used to click the left mouse button and hold it down, move the pointer to the desired menu item and release the mouse button. Everything works fine in the mine menu, but there's a problem when adding new adjustment layer from the layer panel: when I release the button nothing happens, I have to press the button again. In previous PS version it worked fine. How can I fix this?

    I don't think that is user fixable, meaning you'll have to wait till adobe fixes it with an update.

  • Trying to install Photoshop CC 2014 from inside Craetive Cloud panel and my antivirus says it has a Trojan file in it and it won't install

    I am trying to update and install Photoshop CC 2014 from the Creative Cloud panel and my antivirus stops the installation and says the setup file and a droplet file have a trojan within them.  The Trojan.Win32.Generic.pak!cobra is quarantined in my antivirus program.  I can't believe others are not having this same issue!  What do I do now?

    Anti-malware software nowadays has a lot of heuristic behaviors - meaning it's probably not definitively detecting a virus, but spotting something it thinks smells vaguely like one.  It's a transition (from hard detection to heuristics) that's been happening in recent years all across the anti-malware industry and a lot of folks are caught off guard by it.  It's possible your antivirus software maker simply needs time to assimilate reports of false positives and make an exception for Adobe's software.
    Considering that Adobe probably does some pretty tricky things to ensure people can't easily steal their software, that it is detected acting in a manner attributed normally to malware becomes a bit less surprising.  But I don't think there's a virus in it.
    Adobe does recommend stopping your antivirus software before installing.

  • Unable to change/reset colors with open document in Photoshop CC 2014

    I have the 2014.2.2 release of Photoshop CC 2014 and am suddenly unable to change or reset colors with an open document. I get a "Could not complete your request because of a program error" message. After closing the document (or before opening one) I can change colors okay. But not with a document open.

    OK, then resetting Photoshop's preferences is the next thing to try. But first, save a copy of the existing preferences - we may need them to figure out what is going wrong.

  • Where i can read about make extended panel for Photoshop cc 2014?

    where i can read about make extended panel for Photoshop cc 2014?

    It was experimental in CC first release its now supported in CC 2014 not experimental.
    Support for Windows touch devices
    New in this release of Photoshop CC
    Photoshop CC now supports Windows 8.1 touch devices like the Microsoft Surface Pro, so you can use pinch, zoom, pan, and rotate. 
    In Photoshop, two-finger touch gestures are used to control the location, rotation, and scaling of the Image > Canvas view. Users may alternate between touch view control and other interactions using the mouse or stylus, but touch may not be used simultaneously with other input. Touch control is convenient when painting on large touchscreen monitors, which are difficult to rotate physically, and on tablets to avoid constantly shifting the device.
    For more information, see Touch gestures.

  • Color managed printing from Photoshop CC 2014

    It appears color managed printing has either changed significantly or is no longer possible with Photoshop CC 2014. We're able to turn off color management with both Photoshop CS6 and CC when printing to Canon iPFx400 series printers, but not with CC 2014. Has anyone encountered this issues and if so hopefully discovered a work around?

    Im using OSX Mavericks. Photoshop CC 2014 was defaulting to Color Handing: Printer Manges Color in the print Dialog box. I was not use to this and didn't notice. Switching to photoshop manages colors grays out color matching in the printer settings. Im still not sure what has changed as all my profiles are way off with Photoshop CC 2014.

  • Photoshop CC 2014: Panels aus Configurator 3 funktionieren nicht mehr

    Ich habe mir für Photoshop ein paar Panels mit den für mich wichtigsten Befehlen erstellt. Das war immer sehr komfortabel mit dem Configurator (zuletzt Version 3) möglich.
    Seit Update auf Photoshop CC 2014 funktionieren diese Panels nicht mehr, da Adobe die flashbasierten Panels eingestellt hat.
    Wie erstellt man nun Panels, welche z.B. die wichtigen Befehle aus PS enthalten?
