Learn how to access and modify Photoshop preferences and customize per your frequent workflows

Topics in the article:

Introduction to preferences in Photoshop

For Photoshop to run as smoothly as possible, customized for your particular workflow, you must set up your preferences to your liking.

Numerous program settings are stored in the Adobe Photoshop Preferences file, including general display options, file-saving options, performance options, cursor options, transparency options, type options, presets, and options for plug‑ins and scratch disks.

Most of these options are set in the Preferences dialog box. 

Preference settings are saved each time you quit Photoshop. If Photoshop crashes or is force quit, any changes to preferences, presets and your workspace will be lost.

Pro tipCurrently, preferences are not preserved when you do a rollback to a prior version/update. Prior to performing a rollback, make sure to back up your preferences.

Search and find your required Preferences

The new Preferences Search option offers relevant search and suggestions to help you find preferences in Photoshop.

With the August 2022 release of Photoshop 23.5, you can now easily locate what you're searching for using the preferences search capability within the Preferences dialog.

To access the search panel in the Preferences dialog box, follow these steps: 

  1. Use the keyboard shortcut Cmd/Ctrl + K to launch the Preferences dialog.
  2. Now use the keyboard shortcut Cmd/Ctrl + F to use the search option in the Preferences dialog.

How to use the new Search bar

The new search bar is available near the upper-right corner of the Preferences dialog. Use the keyboard shortcut Cmd/Ctrl + F or click inside the box and type a keyword that you want to search within the preferences. 

A dropdown will appear with suggested search phrases, which are updated as you enter text in the search box. Once you've finished typing, hit Enter or select "See all results". The results will be displayed in a dropdown beneath the search field. Click your desired option to navigate to the corresponding section, which will appear with a temporary highlight that is dismissed after a few seconds.

Photoshop now supports the native full-screen mode in macOS.
To enable or disable this support on macOS: Go to Photoshop's Preferences > Workspace and check Enable Native Full Screen.

Support enabled for native full screen mode in macOS for Preferences

Preference to Improve Selection Stability

With the October 2022 release of Photoshop 24.0, you can use a new preference setting to improve the stability of the Object Selection tool, Select Subject, and Sky Replacement for Windows users with an NVidia GPU.

Some Photoshop desktop users on Windows were experiencing slow performance, crashing, or unexpected selections due to NVidia Windows Display drivers. We have made changes to improve the app performance for Windows users who were facing such issues. Additionally, we have introduced a preference to help improve selection stability.

Selections preference toggle for better selection stability

To access the new preference on your Windows device, go to Preferences > Image Processing. Toggle the Selections Processing from Faster (default) to More Stable.

Use Preferences to set a neutral color scheme for Photoshop

Change the color of elements on the interface, such as the blue Share button, to a selected neutral color mode when in the editing mode.

To enable the neutral color mode, navigate to Preferences > Interface and select the checkbox under the look and feel section for Neutral Color Mode.

Choose the Neutral Color Mode in Preferences > Interface in Photoshop
Choose the Neutral Color Mode in Preferences > Interface

  2. To switch to a different preference set, do one of the following:

    • Choose the preference set from the menu at the left of the dialog box.
    • Click Next to display the next preference set in the list; click Prev to display the previous set.
Opomba:

Detailed information about specific preference settings appears in task-specific topics. For example, search Help for “Transparency preferences” to see those settings discussed in the context of related features such as layers.
