P: Mixer Brush Not Working Corrrectly?

Hello, 

 

When I try to paint with a clean brush instead of picking up the colour from the base layer, it's selecting the foreground colour even though I've deselected it. 

Below you can see:

Image 1) I've a base layer.  An empty layer to paint on.  "Load Solid Colours Only" deselected. 

Image 2) It should sample from the base layer and allow me to paint with only those colours, but instead it's automatically using the foreground colour. 

 

Anyone else experiencing this bug and found how to fix it?

The bug that was fixed is what @Michal G_1 described in this thread back in July. 

 

The issue where the foreground color gets loaded on change of brush size or flip foreground/background color has been around as far back as PS 2018.  That has not been fixed.

Hello When will it be updated on this? It is said to have been fixed in 23.4, but that bug is still maintained at 23.5.

It's too hard for me to use a mixer brush a lot......

@Mohit Goyal  Hi Mohit. I was pleased to see that this was amended in version 23.4. But it wasn't fixed in practice, and the current version is 23.5.
As the above users say, the wrong monochrome is still loaded.

Please change this to patch in progress instead of marking it as "fixed". This has not been fixed...........=(
