Photoshop :: CS6 - Black Brush On Layer Mask Not Working

Sep 28, 2012

I have been using CS6 for a while now.  CS 6 decided that I can't use my black brush on a white layer mask. At all. I can use the white one on a black mask, but not the black one I.  I restarted the computer, but I am annoyed.

Photoshop :: Brush Tool On CS6 Not Working With Layer Masks

Jun 2, 2013

I've been using adjustment layers (curves) and creating a dark / light layer, and then using a brush with opacity of say 30-50% to paint onto the mask to show dark / light in selected areas of an image.
 
Until yesterday this was working fine. Now however, my brush is appearing pixelated, and scattered about like an airbrush or spray paint. Rather than all the brush being smooth. Even at 100% opacity, not all of the pixels are altered, instead there are clearly visible (when zoomed in) pixels which are lightened / darkened, and some which have been totally unaffected, which leads to a horrible pixelated effect.

I set the blending mode to overlay, and the foreground color to white.

Photoshop :: Brush Tool Erasing In Quick Mask Mode Rather Than Filling In

Jun 20, 2008

I'm currently jumping back and forward between quick mask mode and my standard layer. When I am in the standard layer the brush tool is performing as it should, but when I go into quick mask it is erasing my selection (red) rather than filling in where I draw!

Photoshop :: Layer Mask Not Working Properly

Aug 30, 2007

I have an action that I created in Photoshop CS2. I used layer masks to be able to edit each layer. All of the masks work fine except for one. On this one layer (we'll call it layer 1) the mask works fine at first, but if I click onto another layer and then come back to layer 1, the mask won't work!

Instead of painting to reveal the layer beneath it, the brush starts painting black.
Why would the layer mask work fine until I click on another layer?

Photoshop :: Alt + Click On Layer Mask Not Working / Enabled

Nov 13, 2012

Basically, when I go to view the layer mask by holding alt and clicking on the layer mask it doesn't function. Along with this problem, when I go to toggle my adjustment layers on and off, by holding alt and clicking on the eye symbol next to the background layer... again this doesn't work.
 
Im not sure if I have accidently clicked on something that has disabled these functions or its just a bug.

Photoshop :: Move Tool Moving Mask But Not Layer

May 29, 2012

So I am adding a leaf to the waterfall image.  The leaf is on it's own layer with a layer mask, and was moved into position without a problem.  A drop shadow was added with Layer Styles, but when trying to move the layer again, the mask moved, but the layer stayed behind.
 
I checked for Auto select, which was off.  I unlinked the mask, tested, relinked the mask, and tested again.  Same problem.  Eventually it started working OK after I tried moving with first the layer active, and then the mask active, and swapping this state about three times.  I could not get it to misbehave again after this.
 
Nothing was locked.  Auto select was off. Other layers all moved OK.  I can find no explanation, and think of no user error (touch wood).

Photoshop :: Brush Tool Not Working Properly?

Nov 20, 2012

I am having problems with the free style tools, brush tool, lasso tool, etc. when I open Photoshop everything works fine but as soon as I press any key, the brush tool makes just one dot instead of a line, I can't slide any adjustment bars, like to make opacity from 0% to 100% or change diameter of the brush, any movement in the mouse is like I just made a single click, I wait around 10 minutes and everything is ok again.

Photoshop :: Brush Tool Not Working! (desperate)

Jul 20, 2009

photoshop has decided to immobilize the lock transparent pixels and more importantly the lock image pixels, therefore not allowing me to paint.

Im trying to use the brush tool with the curves layer to brush away bits i don't want to edit in the layer. the brush tool comes up in the history box but nothing is happening on the image.

Im pretty sure i need to unlock the lock image pixels button but have not idea how or why this has happened in the first place.

For some reason, my brush tool randomly stops working, even the preview thumbnail won't show a brush stroke. Also, my eraser has been acting up, first only adding black, then erasing layer and I can't set it to white. I have PS Elements 10.

Photoshop :: Simple Layer Mask Fade With Gradient Tool?

Feb 15, 2013

On screen this show when doing a simple layer mask fade with the gradient tool. (notice the hard transition in the black) The if I flatten it it looks fine, like this.

I don't understand why all of a sudden it is doing this, same with brushes. Just seems to happen in the layer mask which is really deceiving.

Photoshop :: Crop Tool When Vector Mask Is Active On A Layer

Jun 21, 2013

Using Photoshop CC, if you have a vector mask on a layer and attempt to crop the image, the vector mask shifts incorrectly after the crop is completed.  The image is garbled.  If I rasterize the vector mask to a standard layer mask, the crop works successfully. 
 
I've checked to make sure that there are no numbers in the crop tool options.  Nothing appears to be set incorrectly.

Photoshop :: Healing Brush Tool Not Working Properly?

Jul 3, 2013

My settings for the Healing Brush Tool are as follows:
 
Size = 19 pxHardness = 50%Spacing = 15%Mode = NormalSource = SampledI used "ALT-Left Click" to select my "Source". 

Here's my problem: Once I have selected my Source, I go to the area of the picture I want to modify and Left-Click and start to drag to cover the area I want to modify. Once I reach my end point, I release my mouse button. In doing so, the area I just modified returns to its original look before I modified it.
 
I have tried everything I can think of and nothing seems to work

Corel PHOTO-PAINT X5 :: Eraser And Brush Mask Tool Showing Icon Instead Of Circle Or Square

Mar 1, 2013

I must have fat fingered something and I now when I click on the Eraser Tool or the Brush Mask Tool instead of getting a circle or square, I get and icon of the tool instead.  They still work but they're harder to use without seeing the circle or square depending on what's selected.  I've been using Corel for many years and never had this happen and I can't figure out how to switch back.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite 12 :: Brush Tool Not Working

May 4, 2008

The brush tool is no longer working - when I select on any of the brush tools, spray, Art burhs, spray , line, marker etc, they will not work. When I select the drop down nothing is listed. Additionally, none of the other tools in the box, Effect Tool, Image Sprayer too ect, do not work as well. Did I select something to turn off the tool?

I've tried to uninstall and re-install and that did not work.

GIMP :: Rescale Layer Using Rescale Tool With Layer Mask Active?

Jun 15, 2013

When you try to rescale a layer using the Rescale Tool with a layer mask active, it scales of the mask, likewise if you select the layer it will scale the layer. Can I select both the layer and layer mask and scale the layer, thus it keeps the layer mask showing the desired masked area only. As the only way I can see currently is by applying the layer mask on the layer and then you can see the layer/s below to get the scaling that is desired. But I would like to keep the layer mask active for editing after scaling.
