P: Spring Loaded shortcuts more sensitive - Turn off toggling between tools

What is worse this bug exists for more than a year 😕😕 ive had this bug briefly two years ago on my work computer, then it 'magically' resolved , then i started getting it again last year followed by my personal computer..

I think the most frustrating part is that Adobe straight up stopped replying to this thread 5 months ago, and still hasn't implemented a toggle switch for this god-awful feature. They added "Legacy Ctrl-Z Settings" and "Legacy Free Transform Settings" when they changed those out of nowhere, but when they add a feature that cripples illustrators and adds 257 more "Ctrl-Z" presses per hour of inking, and people in their forums consistently demand the ability to turn it off, they save face for about a month going "Does anyone else agree with this person? This is where you can make your voices heard!" and then stop replying 5 months ago without ever implementing the toggle.

@Jay Van Esbroek ive been on the ends of my wits as well with this to a point i just have to stop drawing sometimes because it gets too annoying ._.

I'd like to add my input here: This feature has absolutely put a huge hamper in my ability to continue my artistic career, and is easily the most frustrating thing Adobe has ever introduced to Photoshop.

The fact that they so smugly say "We think everyone will like this so there's no way to turn it off" is even more infuriating.

I swap tools a lot, I illustrate comics and constantly clean up my lines with the eraser while inking with the brush, and it'll be like:

Brush Stroke > Brush Stroke > Brush Stroke > E to swap to Eraser > Eraser Stroke > Brush Stroke!?!?!? > Brush Stro-- SON OF A... Ctrl-Z > Ctrl-Z > E TO SWAP TO ERASER > WAIT > ERASER STROKE > ERASER STROKE > B TO SWAP TO BRUSH > BRUSH STROKE > ERASER STROKE!?!?!? > ACTUAL STROKE IRL

I hate this feature, I hate it so much, it's not good, it's literally nothing but frustrating and is absolutely murdering my enjoyment of my own artistic career.

Please, PLEASE, for the love of GOD, Adobe, PLEASE give us the ability to toggle this god-awful useless feature off and preferably make it off by default, for the sake of my blood pressure

got on this thread while looking for a solution to the problem, it is amazing that adobe ignores the fact that their software is used by a huge number of illustrators. This "spontaneous switching" of instruments annoys me as well.

I would just like to disable this feature, because for me it is not only useless but also annoying.

I don't remember a single Photoshop release in which everything would work as it should, every time they bring in something that becomes a problem and needs fixing : )

my thoughts as well 😞 Ive been using PS since i could 'walk' and this is the first time im considering a change because i see no light at the end of the tunnel.

To be honest, I have started looking at other programs because of how long it take them to fix this. Not funny at all

I'd wager not many of the devs are illustrators or they don't have a lot of illustrators that have a workflow that swaps quickly between brushes and erasers or they would notice this issue immediately.

@mikalscott well put! I wish the devs would listen, because ive been hoping for a fix with each update for over a year now but i just get disappointed when i update my PS and i still cant use the new version (Im using the previous PS version because it doesnt have this bug)

*James Silva so true! i keep both versions installed just in case that they fix it by some magic but ive lost hope. With each update the problem is still there and the new version is basically unusable, while the old one has other bugs (half of my brushes have their flow bugged for some reason so they dont work properly) . This problem exists for so long its funny the dev's still havent addressed it.
