I've just downloaded the new photoshop update (22.01) and I noticed there is no classic red area when you change Brush size and feathering (when using keyboard shortcut OPTION+CONTROL). 

 

it is quite frustrating

Adobe has this thing that in every update they include some new bug so we need to constantly update Photoshop. The best and the fastest version is for me still 2019 (20.0.1). It lacks new features, but it works. I have that feeling that they just show off with new things - to improve sales - but quality of new version is terrible. I am wondering how long will they play with our patience.

@JeffreyTranberry thank you! Just spent too much time, including reseting my preferences, to fix this.

FWIW, the Preview Color option is still showing in cursor preferences.

The brush HUD will not appear, but the HUD color picker and the color picker will not appear either.

Same issue as a lot of other folks....I'm on Mac with 10.15.7 and Photoshop 22.0.2..... When changing size of the brush in Photoshop the red overlay is now missing ... as we all know this makes it a lot slower to adjust hardness and softness of the brush on the fly. No, it is not the "Caps Lock Key".... I believe in my case this started with V22....  The only way I can use this feature is to roll back at least two versions. On a side note I notice about 3 versions ago I lost the ability to program my Wacom pen (with short wacom macro) to adjust brush size and softness on the fly which was a super handy feature.... but I'll settle for just having the overlay back... Please!!

Hopefully this will be fixed Please!!
