I've come across an issue in Windows 8 when creating panels with Configurator 3 for Photoshop CS6. I hope there is a solution.
After I create and install any panel from Configurator 3 for Photoshop CS6, working on a Windows 8 machine, the speed of clicking on and selecting layers in the Layers Panel is quite delayed, sometimes to the point of seconds. This definitely is disruptive and impedes smooth workflow entirely. In further detail, when the panel is up and running, and then I click on a layer in the layers panel, or multiple layers, or try to switch between layers, the response is terribly lagging and slow, and layers aren't instantly selected as they were before.
Please note, I'm getting this same issue on two different Windows 8 machines with Photoshop CS6 with any panel I create in Configurator 3. I'm also getting this issue on a panel I didn't create, for example, the HTML Sample Panel from Adobe, downloaded from the Adobe Exchange Panel.
I've also tested creating a panel on a Mac and installing that .zxp file on my Windows machines, but I get the same result. Note, this is NOT happening in CS5 with panels created in Configurator 3 using Windoes 8, and it's not happening on a Mac with CS6, using the same panels. It is also NOT happening on a Windows 7 machine. This appears to be an issue with Windows 8 and CS6 and Configurator 3.
If I close out the extension's panel tab, and then restart Photoshop, everything is back to normal, but as soon as I open the extension again, it's back to delayed interface. And, if I don't fully close the panel and restart, the issue does not go away.
Please let me know if you've come across this and if there is a solution. I hope someone or Adobe can help.
Thank you.
