P: Brush roundness appears at 0% when opening at Options bar

When opening the Brush tool at the Options bar, roundness appears at 0% with any brush. It works when fixed, but as soon I open again, it returns to 0%. It's not the case when opened with the brush panel at the left, there it works fine.

Just to flag it: Beta builds aren't intended for production work, that's exactly what they're for finding bugs like this. If you have weddings to deliver, I'd go back to the current stable release and keep Beta on the side for testing.

In fact I see ALL brushes are just a straight line since update. Standard PS version is correct but beta faulty

Hi all, a workaround for now is to select the flat arrow icon and drag the center dot, either up or down, to return the brush to its full width.

 

Thanks,

I am experiencing this, too. I have a bunch of custom brushes, and each brush I select comes in at 0%. I Control+Click (Mac) and select my brushes from the canvas, and all are having this bug.

Alle Pinsel, wenn sie über das Optionsfleld oben ausgewählt wurden, werden flach dargestellt und sind auch in der Anwendung dann flach.
Neuinstallation brachte keine Verbesserung.

Same here. Has to be a bug in the latest beta update.
