I've been having a strange problem with my rMBP and Photoshop. When I open PS on my laptop's screen, I get some crazy image distortion, like so:

When I'm connected to my Thunderbolt display at work, Photoshop works as it should, without any distortion or other rendering issues.

I've tried turning off Automatic Graphics Switching and playing around with the Graphics Acceleration settings in photoshop itself, burt I haven't had any luck yet. Any ideas what this could be?

Figured out the issue. Apparently, CS6 didn't support retina displays. Turned on "open in low resolution" and the problem was solved. Work is giving me CC anyway. :p

It's mostly a matter of just having the latest patch update. Photoshop CC, actually all of Creative Cloud has Retina display support, which is actually pretty sweet. I also have heard that Creative Cloud and CS6 subscription will get some extra 4K display support update, but currently this is just a rumor.

PS CS6 have no problem with my 2012 15" rMBP. Thank God for that! :)
