Was watching your tutorial on creating light, had a brush issue so searched it up which brought me to here. 2 things learnt from the same person in a row is an immediate subscribe!
I was going crazy trying to figure out why all of my brushes were suddenly just painting a bunch of dots. Two minutes into your video and I changed the Mode back to Normal. Problem resolved! Thank You!!!
Bloody genius. I'm new to PS and have spent a day trying to work out why my brush suddenly stopped working. Looked ay dozen of videos you yours finally gave me the answer clearly and concisely. Thank you :)
Thanks so much. I spent 2 hrs trying to figure out why my brush was not working with my layer masks and all I had to do was reset the Brush tool. SMDH!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
Dude you SAVED my SANITY what with that reset tool recommendation of yours, I was going insane trying to figure out how to make my regular old hard round brush work the way I intended it to again. God bless you son
Thank you!!! Great Job. You got a new Subscriber. This is what all tutorials should be like. Straight to the point, clear, concise and with great instructions! This should be template for all TH-cam problem solving videos! Thank you once again!
Thank you for addressing brush issues... Twice now I have had to reset the brush tool... when I was teaching this subject several years ago I never had this problem, so I'm very glad I found you.
I have turned the cops lock on and off several times, but unfortunately the little cross don't dissapair, the Circle doesn't come back... I just reset the brush, WOW, it worked. You Have solved my problem Brendan. Bless you! Laszlo Montreal Photog.
THANK YOU, I have issue all the time with healing tool not working. It just smears. I had not thought of reseting. I rarely use this program but I have this issue each time. I can now fix it. I would hug you if I could. This is so simple no one addresses it. It just takes one tiny detail to drive you crazy.
Thanks for the tip bro! I've been trying to troubleshoot my cursor for already an hour now! I didn't realize that I have my Caps Lock on ^_^ Sheeesh. Thanks man!
Sometimes my brush just straight up doesn’t lay down what I draw. I try to do lineart and it’s like it just goes “nope” and lays down points instead, like it isn’t picking up the whole stroke. I have no idea if the program is lagging or if something else is wrong, I’ve reset the brush settings over and over again and the problem persists, but every solution online is “reset brush settings”. Between this and my cat walking back and forth across my keyboard I’m about to snap
Thank you for the tutorials. Unfortunatly I have tried all of your sugestions including reseting all tools. Since they upgraded to 2022 my brush will not work at all. Any idea why?
I was going crazy trying to figure out why my white brush wasn't working properly on my mask and your video made me realize my white wasn't on full white. Since the default white/black was already there, I didn't think to just ctrl+d. 🤦♂
At 3:10 the black brush appears to be a rough-edged solid black surrounded by airbrushed black. I'm experiencing that and can't figure out why (just downloaded PS 24). Colors seem to be fine. Any idea what's up?
Great tips! However, my brush tool still isn't working. I have a new hue/saturation level created and usually I can change the color of things with that. But for some reason, it still isn't working after resetting and checking the opacity.
I'm not able to figure out why when painting inside a selected areas often end up with faded areas near the edge of the selection. It seems the painted edges somehow fades out foer sme reason.. When I try to fill in the selected area, the paint is not dense. I can't seem to fill it in. Another issue, sometimes when painting inside a selected area, the paint oversprays outside the selection. I run into these issues often.
Hi Brendan, thank you for this tutorial. I am very good with photoshop, but suddenly today I had unknown problems with the brush tool and it drives me crazy… Alone for the Reset Tool option was worth it to watch the video till the end. Thank you! 🙏🏼
can you tell me why brush heads up display is not opening when i am clicking the shift+alt+right click , i am using windows , and when i am changing the brush hardness , size using the shortcut key it cannot show the red preview even though the preview color is setup in preferences thanks for advance
Brendan great tutorial on brushes... i was hoping to find a solution of my problem with brushes. I can't get the stroke thumbnail in the options bar to appear after having chosen the brush. Any suggestions? thanks
My issue seems to be that, as I draw, every tool defaults to the mouse arrow and refuses to function. Zoom and brush were the first ones I noticed. I found no trigger and no fix other than saving the canvas, exiting and repoening the file. Cant seem to find anyone talking about this
Brendan, the red dot doesn't appear at all. I can see the outline circle for the size, but the opacity one doesn't show. Can you help me? I've done everything ( even reseted the brush tool to it's default), but nothing solved the issue for me. Thanks!
The red dot only shows up using a keyboard shortcut. So your brush tool isn't broken. On mac the shortcut is OPT+CONTROL+CLICK/DRAG while PC is ALT+Right Click+ Drag I believe (may be alt+windows or alt+control with the right-click, not 100% sure since I'm a mac user.) While clicking and dragging, go side to side for brush opacity and up and down for brush size. While using this shortcut the red brush showing opacity will appear. Otherwise, it won't show up.
I watch your video only 5 second and I solve my problem. It mean a lots to me. Thank you so much Brendan

Thank you very much...a thousand thanks.. I searched for this information for a long time and finally found it.. I am very very grateful to you
In my case you just had to quit and re-open photoshop. You missed that one, bro ;)
Thank you for the video. The solutions didn't work per se, but learning about using a different layer to paint on was a good alternative. Thanks!
you saved my day. THANKYOU...
All the tips are great, however, guys if it's still not working try saving your project and reopening Photoshop, that worked for me.
Lol Thank god for your video.. was in the middle of this Project and brush went grey on all and thanks to your vid saved me a lot of frustration!!
