Just updated my Photoshop to Photoshop CC18 and now I am not able to define the size of my brush with my wacom pen. Using the right mouse key + ALT , it works as it is used to be but using the pen + ALT (using the button as right mouse key) I only can choose a colour. Can anyone help me ?

@10970781, have you tried creating the PSUserConfig.txt as I showed in my post? With this setup I have pressure sensitivity in Photoshop even with Windows Ink disabled. 

I agree however, that the current situation is less than ideal.

Have the same problem since the W10 fall creators update.
Deactivating windows ink does fix the issue BUT when doing so I lose pressure sensitivity. So it is not a solution.
Can't believe such a basic functionality have been broken like that.

Hi Micah,

When you say "no user config" are you saying that you tried the solution that worked for some of the users in this thread and it didn't help you? Just want to be clear.

Thanks,
Hannah

No pressure sensitivity, even though the wacom driver shows installed and pressure working. Nothing, no user config, nothing works.

after updating photoshop to CC2018 and fall update win 10 is  my wacom tablet (pen) stoped changing the size and hardnes of brushes. "Right" button on pen is set like right and except resizing is working fine. I have latest drivers of wacom, but it was same with driver 6.3.19 and now I'm close to break my intuous pro M by hammer 🙂 In discussions I've seen this issue last time on june 2017, but without answer. Please save my tablet 🙂
