Adobe Introduces Non-Destructive Texture Mapping Update

Adobe updated Photoshop on January 27, 2026, introducing non-destructive adjustment layers (Clarity, Dehaze, Grain), a Dynamic Text beta, and Firefly generative upgrades. The release adds maskable, reversible Texture Trinity layers, 2K Firefly Generative Fill/Expand, and geometry-aware Reference Image compositing for higher-fidelity outputs. These changes aim to streamline retouching, typography workflows, and AI-assisted compositing across desktop and the web.
