Photoshop: Disable "Could not use the move tool because no layers are selected." Message
Get rid of the "Could not use the move tool because no layers are selected." message that pops up when you click anywhere with no layer selected. Or, at the very least, make an option to disable this dialog. In an effort to improve the Adobe cross-platform experience, please disable this pop-up message. I actively use Illustrator and Photoshop together literally every day and in Illustrator, you click off of an object to deselect it. If I do the same thing in Photoshop, I get the redundant dialog. I don't need Photoshop to deselect layers when clicking elsewhere on the canvas, but I do need it to stop showing a message every time I click, either on purpose or on accident, without a layer selected. Seriously, if I click and nothing happens, I know it is because I don't have a layer selected - I don't need a stupid window to pop up every single time to tell me no layer is selected.
Please... make it stop. Thank you.

Please... make it stop. Thank you.

I can't be the only one who finds this annoying.

Other warning dialogs have a "don't show again" checkbox -> this DESPARATELY needs one.
If I can't move because nothing is selected, I will notice when nothing moves. Then I will adjust my selection.
But right now it just pops up whenever I do a wrong click, and then I have to get my hand off the mouse, on to the keyboard and press Enter which disrupts whatever I'm working on.
Or even better, when I'm selecting multiple layers with CMD + click, it will also pop up for whatever reason, because clicking somewhere you're bound to drag a little bit.

Please fix this Adobe. It literally can't take much more than an hour to add this to the settings.

This is not only annoying message that I can see. Adobe should revise the system error messages.

It's like hitting "a" in a text editor and getting a popup saying: "The letter "a" will now be appear in your document. Click OK."
PLEASE give us the possibility to turn this nonsense message off.
