Photoshop :: Brush Options - Can't Customize?
Mar 26, 2013
I installed Photoshop cs6 recently and have found painting in it extremely frustrating.When I customise a brush (for instance, turning off "transfer"/opacity), instead of allowing me to proceed with it, the brush automatically reverts to the previous settings after ONE BRUSHSTROKE!
I've tried resaving the brushes with the customisations without success- They still revert to the old settings.I'm using a Wacom Cintiq with a Windows 8 computer.

I have used GIMP before, uploading artwork I created from it on to deviantART. However, this has been quite a while ago, back when it was GIMP 2.4 or so.
I recently just got a Wacom Bamboo tablet though, and wanted to get back into making art. I redownloaded GIMP (this time version 2.8) and while I am very satisfied with the update, there is one thing that has bothered me.
I'm not exactly a fan of the new format for the tool options of the brushes from how they used to be.
Basically, I prefer to how the tool options for the brushes were for GIMP 2.4 over the updated 2.8. Is there a way I can keep version 2.8 with the slight adjustment of having the tool options formatted the way they were in 2.4?
For me it's more of an inconvenience adjusting the brush size and whatnot, and I'm so much more used to how it was formatted in older versions.

I recently discovered why I've been having trouble with precise drawing with my tablet, I keep losing track of the brush cursor, that circle is just too small, same for "precise" brush cursor (cross). I tried the standard brush cursor and it was much better but it lacked precision of telling where the stroke will start.
Â
Is there any way to customize the brush cursor, ie. add a mouse pointer/brush icon to that small circle like it's in PaintTools SAI?

I am able to create my own customizable brushes BUT I want more, WAY more. I want a brush capable of picking up a pixel or a few and transform it/them into a bokeh, JUST WHERE they are.
The only tutorials I found are about making brushes, customizing them to do what ever but they create the same thing all over even if different sizes, scattered or whatever. Nothing about being able to have one that selects what is underneath.
Blur radius does not work, I tried and tried and tried again. If I still have hairs it because they are too short to pull and if the walls are still standing around me it is because I am wearing a soft pillow to protect them against my aggressiveness toward them (my wife was tired of paying for repairs).

I keep seeing posts and videos referring to the Airbrush option in the Brush settings panel. My CS6 doesn't have this option. It goes Wet Edges to Build-Up to Smoothing to Protected Texture at the bottom of the list. Is this a glitch? Should I be seeing the Airbrush option here?
Â
Also, I'm having a little trouble with the brushes I'm using. I was able to trace out my drawing with a simple brush but when I went to shade it it doesn't look very good. I was following along with this tutorial
[URL].........
and at 6:40 in the video he starts filling in the hair and mine looks completely weird. I realize he isn't using Photoshop but I was wondering if there is a way to duplicate the brush that he is using.Â

I'm not so good with PS yet . Well I saw in many tutorials how to smudge. And for that you need to set some brush options. They do this by pressing a button in the upper right corner. I use PS 5.0 and this doesn't has this. Here's a screenshot. Anyone knows where the brush / smudge options are ?

I just got my PS CS I love it, but I miss the options to adjust my brush options like angle, fade, spacing, and so on. I also have a WACOM that worked very well with PS7 but since PS8 I cant find options to work with my Pen tablet.

I am in the Develop module trying to use the Adjustment Brush. After selecting the brush I am not seeing the window below that allows me to apply the corrections (exposure, contrast, etc.) I want. This window does show up if I select Graduated or Radial filters.Â

I am using LR5 with Windows 7 and have ensured that there are no LR updates avaialble. I have the latest version.

The options window will not display when typing "options" in the command line or selecting from the drop down. The options menu has to be hidden somewhere because AutoCad will not allow any other commands after typing options until I hit escape. I have tried restarting CAD and rebooting my computer with not luck.

I'm using the "Load files into stack" script & then exporting layers with "Export layers to files..." When the images come in, the layer names contain the original file extension... ie Juliet09wIFSO_Brown.psd and when I export they end up as
Juliet09wIFSO_Brown.psd.jpg How do I modify the "Load files into stack" script so that they come in without the extension?

I can't figure out how to customize popup menus. In particular, if I right-click a layer in the layer panel a huge list opens, there are far too many items that inhibit my workflow. All I want to do is hide some of them.
Â
These are some I'd like to hide:
Â
No Color
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Violet
Gray
Postcard
New 3D Extrusion From Selected Layer
New 3D Extrusion
Â
I hope this is not impossible.

My friends and I have a blog and we use a very nice background (see the attachments). However, we would like to customize the blog a little bit, I would like you to make a background image which has the exact same size and the one attached. Moreover, the background of the background (!!) must have the same color as the one in the attached image.
Most importantly, try to make something that is about the same as the one attached, but use your imagination to make it different and better. Try the use the same colors and keep it grunge, just the like the attached image.
I know that I ask you to make about the same image. My friends and I really like it, yet we want something different so that our blog is more...unique.
The image file size should not be more than 175KB.
Image dimensions: 1400x920

When we select File -> Open we’re presented with an Adobe designed file browser that has the files and folders on the right and a vertical bar of ‘Common Tasks’ )or Favourites) on the left. Is there a way to customize these ‘Common Tasks’? CS4 references a ‘My Documents’ folder location which is incorrect. I moved those files to a different location and I’d like to see where I can tell PS about this change. It would also be nice to add more convenient ‘Favorites’ and remove those I have no need for.

Is there any way to ad more customizations to it?
Instead of doing post work, can I change it to use my banner and other preferences automatically?
I know of the different choices possible when going through the photo gallery creation options, but I want more.
The index pages are not a problem but it's all of the image pages that become time consuming.

I would like to customize the names of Places as I assign them. For instance, I know that this set of pictures was take at the House on the Rock in Wisconsin. Under the "Places" tab, it's listed as 5754 State Road 23 in Spring Green Wisconsin. I'll never remember that this is the ADDDRESS for the House on the Rock, so I want to change the listing to something that will make sense to me as I use the column search function (something logical like: "House on the Rock, Spring Green, Wisconsin")
Â
Is it possible to edit the Place tags?

Zooming in to the line (600%) you can see i can draw a marquee through half of it ...

No matter what 1 single pixel brush i use this will happen... no matter which computer i use cs6 on and different copies of the installation.  Anyway have any insight into this? frankly... it's somewhat limiting that i can't use the brush for stroking a shape if i need a pixel line and yet soft curves that a pencil won't get you.Â

There are a few things I just don't get about brush settings. Sometimes it seems my brushes go all wonky.
Â
When I change the settings for 1 brush... say I add some jitter to a smooth brush - then suddenly the other brushes get the same jitter applied to them.
Â
How can I set the brushes so that each brush has a different setting that doesn't change when I change any other brush settings?
Â
p.s. I also don't get why Adobe has you lock a brush by UNlocking it? Seems to me it should be the other way around?

I have contacted Adobe about issues with Photoshop brushes recently. My issue is that the brush size is smaller than the circle that represents the brush. In other words, when I hoover over the area that I want to paint or erase with the circle and then click, the painted or erased area is smaller that the circle. It's really frustrating when fine tuning an image, you never know how close you are to what you want to correct. This is only visible when you zoom in quit a bit. I worked with an Adobe tech for over an hour and he could not simulate the problem. Then he finally asked if I was using a retina display, (he was not).Â

When I use the Adjustment Brush in Camera Raw it frequently just gives me a pin instead of a brush. How can I fix this? I'm on a Mac in Snow Leopard.
