P: Keeping Adjustment Brush Tool (K) Open

Hello,

I often edit batches of photos where I need to use the adjustment brush to paint over a subject’s face. It would really improve my workflow if the adjustment brush could stay open and active as I advance through images.

 

Right now, I have to open the brush (K), paint, close it (K), move to the next image, and repeat the process. If the brush could remain open while I arrow through multiple images, it would eliminate the repetitive task of constantly opening and closing it.

 

Thank you for considering this feature!

You can make this go a little faster by using Cmd/Ctrl Right Arrow to move to the next photo. That saves you one keystroke (closing the brush).

...or just click on the next image in filmstrip using the mouse, pen, trackpad, etc. However, since this is a feature request, I'll move the thread to the 'Ideas' forum.
