Photoshop :: Eraser And Brush Tools Stopped Working In 6.0

Feb 18, 2003

I was using my eraser and airbrush tools on a small image on a larger layer and I moved the image and, after that the eraser and paintbrush tools stopped working on all layers. When I went back to a previous version of the file the tools worked fine.

Photoshop :: Eraser In CS5 Just Stopped Working

Nov 20, 2012

I am working on a floor plan in CS5 Photoshop. Just basically tracing over an original document and erasing what I trace over. I do this all the time and it has been working fine.

But now the eraser won't work at all. When i turn off all the layers except the background layer I can erase things, but then when I turn the layers back on, it doesn't show up erased. I've tried resetting the tool and that didn't work. I'm so confused as to why it just stopped working.

Photoshop :: 5.5 - Eraser And Paint Tools Not Using Entire Diameter Of Brush

Apr 19, 2012

All brushes have been reset and are set the same. We are running CS5.5 Master Edition on a brand new 27" iMac 3.4 ghz Intel Core i7 Quad core using a Radeon AMD HD6970M.
 
This is a sample of how the tool is not using the entire diameter. This could be either erasing or painting a color.

Photoshop :: Eraser And Brush Are Not Working Correctly

Dec 28, 2012

For some reason photoshop at times will only let me erase or draw within the confines of a specific layer. It seems to happen randomly without me accidently hitting a hotkey of some sort.
 
For instance in the image below, I was drawing and randomly I noticed I could no longer draw. It would only let me use the brush/erase tool within the confines of the line work I had already established. The only way I have been able to correct this so far is to completely restart photoshop.

Photoshop :: Selection Tools Have Stopped Working

Feb 3, 2013

I was trying to cut out a bridge stock today, and all of my selection tools are suddenly acting psychotic. Whether it's a lasso or a marquee tool, they all give me this result when I try to select something:

I haven't trying restarting Photoshop, but I just wanted to know how to fix this and how I can prevent it from happening again.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Express Tools Stopped Working?

Apr 20, 2012

I recently did a repair on my C3d 2012 (whcih didn't fix the problem, but I found out what that was and sorted it another way.)

I now find that all express tools commands give me the command unknown error.

I have checked in the cui and the Express tools ARE loaded. I tried unloading and reloading acermain.cuix without success.

I tried adding features from the control panel, but express tools do not show in the list.

I checked the text window after I first opened C3d and it definitely lists that it has loaded express tools yet they do not work.

I tried typing expressmenu in the command line, but it says command unknown. 

edit - I tried resetting acetmain.cuix and got the following error:

Unhandled exception has  occurred in a component in your application. If yu click continue the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.

Photoshop :: Brush Texture Stopped Working In CS6

Dec 22, 2012

I was using the "texture" feature under the brush options, under "brush tip shape" to get a pencil type texture. I've turned it on and off to color stuff and anyway, now it won't seem to turn back "on".

I've attached this image so hopefully you can see the texture.  It's not a custom brush or anything.  Just the basic default PS brush with "texture" chosen, now it's just a smooth line.
 
(I've tried restarting my Mac and installed a "patch")

GIMP :: Drawing Tools Stopped Working All Of A Sudden (2013)

May 11, 2013

I'm using GIMP in my own language so the tools names translation might not be 100% accurate.

Been using GIMP (2.8 and just switched to the latest one) for a while now, it's been nearly a year on this PC (Windows 7 64 bit, relatively recent hardware, 8 Gb of RAM, etc.) and it's worked smoothly up until a couple of days ago when it stopped working as intended all of a sudden for some reason.

Whether I use my Wacom tablet or the mouse none of the tools that normally allow you to draw (pencil, brush, airbrush, etc.) work anymore (cropping, distorting the image and the likes work fine though), doesn't matter if it's a brand new document or an old file.

The funny thing is that when I go to the "Edit" menu it'll allow me to rollback and undo whatever I did with the aforementioned tools, even though there's no trace of it on the empty canvas itself.

I tried to uninstall and install the software back but it didn't do the trick.This is really irking me as I'm working on an illustration that is due in a week and I basically had to stop working on it altogether because I haven't been able to get rid of this problem (also I can't seem to find anything about this specific issue on the net).

Photoshop :: Spot Healing Brush Stopped Working?

Mar 16, 2012

My spot healing brush stopped working. After releasing the mouse, it blinks and remains black. If I do another spot, the first spot is fixed and the second one is black. And so on. This began after updating to 12.0.4 x64 (Mac 10.7.3)*

Photoshop Elements :: Healing Brush Has Stopped Working?

Nov 16, 2012

My PSE10 Healing Brush is now acting like my cloning tool.  I was using the cloning tool while editing a photo.  The next photo I went to use the healing brush and received an error notice that I usually associate with the cloning tool.  The error reads "alt-click to define a source point to be used to repair the image".  I have done a restart as well as checked for any available updates.  All to no avail.

I have been using PSE 11 (version 11.0) for several months on 27" iMac with OS X Lion (version 10.7.5). One of my favorite tools is the spot healing brush with content aware option. For some reason it suddenly stopped working! The black circle doesn't appear when I click my mouse. I have reset the tool to no avail.

Photoshop Elements :: Detail Smart Brush Stopped Working Properly

Feb 12, 2014

Detail Smart Brush use to have the same brightness as Smart Brush as in Bright Eyes, Whiten Teeth, etc.  Now when I use Smart Brush, I get the same brightness as always, but when I try to use the Detail Brush, it is darker than Smart Brush.  It used to be that I could go over an area as many times as I wanted without an accumulation of brightness with the Detail Brush.  Now if I go over an area I already went over, it lightens it more.  Have I done something to cause this?  How can I get it back to the way it was before (and the way I can still use Elements 11 which I did not uninstall).  I tried Sign Out, uninstall and making a new install but the problem was there again.  Is it possible that this was updated by Adobe and intentionally changed?

Lightroom :: 4.1RC2 - Adjustment Brush Stopped Working Mid Session

May 19, 2012

This is pretty weird. Brand new .lrcat, working through a few family pictures. The first few photos, the adjustment brush was working. A few minutes into it, it stopped working, or at least stopped having nearly as substantial an effect. If I push exposure by +4, it looks as if it's pushing it by .4. Same with other sliders - they are barely applied.
 
Did I hit some button that globally diminishes the brush strength or something?
 
Note that, in the second image, the adjustment brush is centered on his head. It's a little different than the first image, but certainly not to the extent one would expect from the sliders pushed to their extremes.
 
Just for a point of trivia, I installed QuickTime while working in LR. Not sure if that has anything to do with it, but restarting LR and creating a new catalog did not remedy the problem.

GIMP :: 2.6.12 - Wacom Eraser Works Like Brush Not Eraser?

Jan 25, 2014

I'm using a Wacom Intuos2 tablet with GIMP 2.6.12, and it works fine except as the subject says, the eraser works like a brush. In Photoshop, I don't recall exactly what it does, but I believe switching to the eraser (meaning flipping the pen over to the "eraser" side" switches from the foreground color to the background color, so that it effectively works like an eraser.

How can I do that, or something similar, in GIMP? I've searched everywhere and most of the posts have to do with getting the tablet recognized (check) and implementing pressure (check).

GIMP :: Set Brush Size For Paint Brush And Eraser Separately?

Jul 5, 2012

I'm using a tablet with gimp and I want to be able to set the brush size for the paint brush and also for the eraser, separately. What happens now is that I'll set the paintbrush size to 10px, paint for a little while, turn the pen over to erase and the eraser will now be at 10px. So I'll adjust the eraser size to something like 50px, erase, turn over, and now the paintbrush is at 50px. Grrrrrrr... I tried creating new brushes for both the paintbrush and the eraser, but there's no brush size option. This is my first time using gimp so I'm probably missing something.

Photoshop :: All Tools Acting As Eraser

Apr 8, 2013

CS5:
 
All the tools on my toolbar are working/acting as the eraser tool, ie. attempting to crop erases, using the type tool erases. I've reset the tools and tool presets but the issue still stands. I am not in quick mask, the issue starts immediately when I open Photoshop.

Photoshop :: Eraser Tools With Wacom Tablets?

Apr 22, 2013

Would like to add improvement to assit drawing in Photoshop
 
1. flipping wacom pen to pressure sensitive eraser  photoshop switch to eraser tools, but the top menu did not switch to eraser properties
 
* would like switching to eraser tip, top menu also change to eraser options together, when flipping back to pen's tip, photoshop auto switch back to previous tool options this implies current workflow would be drawing and erasing with toolbox or shortcut B, E together with wacom pen tip rather than quick switch to eraser side. (if you need to change eraser options)
  
2.  Photoshop CS5, CS6 for windows, while using wacom eraser tip to change Size or Hardness slide bars from the top, would remove the integer number inside the dialog, it causes a dialog would pop up with "An integer between 1 pixel and 5000 Pixels is  required. Closest value inserted."
 
Click OK and popup will disappear, Size/Hardness would be filled with correct selected number again,  it is troublesome, as size and hardness changes a lot while drawing. have to keep clicking OK on every changes.

(on screen opacity and flow slidebars works fine)   Same changes to Size/Hardness slide bar work with normal pen tips side, and if using pen tips alone, (not using eraser tip) it is wonderful with new brush size & color picker shortcut added from CS5
 
#2 has been tested in mac version photoshop CS4, both Size and Hardness slider works fine without problem.
 
#1 + #2 made me work with pen tip + hot keys B,E all the time,   eraser side is almost not in use,  except erasing with the same size & hardness from last used

Photoshop :: Cc Tools Stuck / Only Eraser Works

Oct 3, 2013

Everything will work fine for a while, then all tools will stop working and the only thing i can still use is the eraser.  If i select another tool, it selects it on the toolbar, but its still just still the eraser.  The only thing i can do is shut the program down and restart it.  I have tried reinstalling and this makes no difference, same with restoring all defaults.  It DOESNT do this in cs5, just the latest version. Do i need to just ditch the latest photoshop and go back to cs5?

Xara :: Shape Builder And Eraser Tools

Mar 1, 2013

Up in the Xara Xone a discussion cropped up that started us talking about the eraser tool. So I thought I'd get a thread going here where everyone can share tips and tricks regarding the eraser and the shape builder as well

The eraser tool is available in Designer Pro X, and Photo & Graphic Designer 2013 And the Shapebuilder is available in Designer Pro X

To start things off here are a couple of handy tips:

You can force the eraser to produce an opacity mask and non destructively edit vector shapes in two ways. 1. set some softness or 2. group your vector object with it's self.

You can use the H key to toggle the node view on and off . If you have Designer Pro X the shift key toggles between the shape builder and eraser tool for handy editing.

Photoshop :: Effecting Selection With Eraser Or Brush

Jun 22, 2013

what I'm trying to do is make a selection and, with either the paintbrush or eraser, put a single coat of the selected brush texture on that entire selection.
 
I've downloaded some really great brush sets and I want to apply one of them to the whole canvas as if I've painstakingly gone over the whole canvas and applied one coat of the paint brush or eraser. All the Google explanations refer to the smart brush which I can't seem to find. Perhaps its no longer in CS6?
 
I'm using a Mac Pro with OSX 10.6.8 & PS CS6.

Photoshop :: Eraser Not Working - JPG?

Jan 13, 2013

however the eraser tool and other methods of getting to transaperency are not working. Perhaps it is a problem with locked background colours or something, however my eraser tool is defaulted to erase to white not transparent - see picture.
 
have tried ctrl+shift+alt at start up to restore to factory settings, and even uninstalled and reinstalled the program, but no luck.also when i go to refine edge after a quick selection, there's no transparent option

Photoshop :: CS2 Freezes And Eraser Tool Set For Circular Brush Shows Cross-hairs?

Aug 10, 2013

Suddenly my CS2 has started to act up. First, after opening a file and start to do a background erasing, the brush shows up as crosshairs.

after a brief time of working with those limitations, when I click on the downdown menus, they get highlighted, but nothing drops down. If I try to close the file or the program, all I get is a warning "ding".

Photoshop :: CS6 - Why Did Background Eraser Stop Working

Oct 30, 2013

CS6, Win7 Pro 
 
Why might the Background Eraser tool have stopped working? The settings I am currently using are Sampling: Once; Limits: Discontiguous; Tolerance: 100%; Protect Foreground Color: checked.     
 
I wanted to remove a head and shoulders photo portrait from a background, and to do so, I generally followed the instructions on a YouTube video tutorial by Ali Baba entitled How to Remove Background Around Lots of Hair Photoshop;  
 
which showed to use the eraser tool.     
 
My background was an off white color, with a shadow from the subject on some of it. I made a layer on top of the photo and filled it with red (instead of the dark blue in the video, so it would contrast more with the black hair of my subject);  then I copied the photo into a layer and put it on top of the red (unlike the video where he erased off the original.)  Then I erased away the background. Then I took the steps shown to work around the hair. At that time, the background was still not closely erased around the ears and shoulders and I put the job away for a while.
 
When I came back, I used the Quick Selection to select the area from the entire right side that wasn't erased yet.   But I didn't know how to erase the selection, so I went back to the Background eraser and erased the rest of the right side away.  Then I deleted the selection. 
 
For some reason, however, I am not able to erase any more on the left side, and I am stymied as to why not.
