Option-Click a Layer is Buggy with Metal ON

[smadell]

I read a previous post about having Metal Compute ON causing the Photo Persona histograms to lag extensively. I decided to test this by turning Metal OFF. I can confirm that my histograms update way faster with Metal off.

Also noticed another issue, which has bugged me for a while. Option-clicking a layer (to view it in "isolation") has been fraught with problems, sometimes not working at all. And, when it does work, clicking on a different layer to leave "isolation mode" almost never works.

However, turning Metal Compute OFF has solved that problem. Metal seems like a great idea in theory, but a real bugger in practice. Thought I should report this.

Hi smadell,
Do you mind attaching a screen capture of your Mac specs (menu Apple > About This Mac)?

Hi, Miguel

Thanks for following up. Sorry for the delay in responding - it's a time zone thing. Here are my Mac's specs:
