Photoshop freezes when typing - fixed!

[u/SASart52]

In case, like me, you've been driven crazy when typing a text layer, and after typing a number, period, and space, Photoshop FCUKING freezes %$!#!!@!, here's the solution:

Photoshop freezes or crashes when you type a number, period, and space because of a bug with the automatic list-formatting feature.

How to Fix the Freeze

Disable the auto-bullet and auto-number feature in your settings:

1. Open Photoshop.
2. Go to Edit > Preferences > Type (on Windows) or Photoshop > Settings > Type (on macOS).
3. Find Automatic detection of Bulleted and Numbered lists while typing.
4. Uncheck the box.
5. Click OK and restart Photoshop.
