My brush size circle does not show up...just the cursor. I change the size to everything from 1 to 300....nothing. Sometimes a shutdown and restart helps, so I think it may be a lack of computing power.
I can sometimes get it back by going into preferences and changing the brush size to standard then then back to brush size...but that's a pain in the but.
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.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am experiencing two problems. One is the tool icons in Photoshop are disappearing on the screen. I move the cursor and see nothing on my screen.
The second problem is at other times the proper tool icon and function is not showing up and working. I select for example the pen tool and the hand tool icon show up and the function works as the hand tool not the pen tool?
the size of the brush at the Brush Mask Tool can not be changed when I pressing the Shiftbutton

Am I doing something wrong or is the Blob Brush tool only capable of using the basic brush?
I've loaded a set of brushes I created into CS6. They show up fine in the menu bar brush window, in the Preset Manager, in the Brush Preset palette above my layers palette, but they will not appear in the brush preset fly-out window. This is where I do all the manipulating of my brushes, of course, so this is essential. I have created many, many brushes and done this many, many times and have never had this problem.

I am using LR5 with Windows 7 and have ensured that there are no LR updates avaialble. I have the latest version.
Often when working with the brush tool a very strange bug arises.Instead of the brushstrokes being visible in a normal way, the active area around the brush becomes a large square shape, slightly brighter than its surroundings.What this means is i can t see what im painting because a large square blankets the area around which im working. very strange its like the brush is selecting vectors around it as im using it.the actual painted area then become visible again when i release the mouse.i have managed to overcome by restarting LR, but is just keeps happening after using the brush tools for a while.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI cannot see my lines, paint or clone results after selecting and using any of these tools. The history shows that I have used them but I cannot view the results on my screen. I can select a tool such as paint brush or pen and draw on my image but I cannot see where I have just drawn or painted. This is also the case with the dodge/burn and clone tools. Any global changes such as contrast, color or brightness will work fine, it's just the tools.
I have tried reinstalling Photoshop (CS3) as well as did a clean install of Windos XP Pro SP3. Changed video cards and updated all bios and drivers.
For some reason the tools in my photoshop are not showing up correctly on the cursor when they are selected. For example, normally when you click the brush tool, the cursor changes into a circle which shows you the size of your brush, but for some reason, all i am getting is a little " + "
Have i changed a setting somewhere? Does anybody know how i can get the cursor to go back to the way it should be. I just want it to be a circle when the brush is selected so i can see the size of my brush.
I'm using PS CS4 on Windows xp
tool ships are checked in the preferences but they're not showing.
I have a list of brushes in the Tool Presets. I go to the Preset Manager and organize them in an order that makes sense to me, then I Save the presets with a name in the Tools presets. Just to be sure, I save the workspace with a new name.
If I close PS and reopen it, the tools appear in the Tools Presets, but not in the order I saved them earlier. They are all in alpahbetical order again.
I've gone through this several times, and it seems I am doing it right. I must be missing a step somewhere. This is on Windows 7, 64 Bit, Photoshop 5.
am using Photoshop CS 2 and the first thing you have to do is draw a circle, but my elliptical tool isn't in the toolbox. There is a square, but no circle.

I recently moved up from Photoshop Elements to CS5 which included a Selection Brush Tool in addition to the Quick Selection Brush. The Selection Brush Tool allows you to paint a selection free style without being bothered by the "Quick" feature that provides guesses about where you might want to select. I could not find the Selection Brush Tool in CS5. Is there one? The lasso is not as easy to use.

Is it possible to lock the paint brush to one stroke of paint? If an area is painted, is it possible to automatically skip that area when painting? In other words, is it possible to have the brush effect only once over a given particular area even if it is brushed over twice?

View 4 Replies View RelatedThis is about Brush sizes. Here is an example. If I select the Paintbrush tool and select a size of 300 pixels and 100% hardness. The "Circle" that represents the brush is approximately 600 pixels in diameter. Almost twice the size of the actual colour that I want to apply. It makes it very difficult to be precise. Is this a glitch or is there a setting somewhere that I can't find.
