P: alt+right click drag resize opacity lock

The problem exist and is has got more attention latyle (here). There can be many reasons for it to get "only" 27 votes in 6 years. For example, it is quite hard to find with google. And maybe a lot of people aren't just using this short cut feature much to resize brush 

If a Feature Request like

can get 46 votes within 2022 or

can get 71 votes within 2022 I think 27 votes in 6 years would not seem to hint at great »popular demand«. 

How Feature Requests are evaluated and prioritized at Adobe is naturally not visible to outsiders but I suspect these numbers would matter to some extent. 

If you are answering 6 years old thread, maybe you could check what you said at the first time so you don't just repeat the same exact things you said already and was told why they don't work as a solution:

I apologize for not attentively re-reading the original post.

My assumption that thist could be simple case technically is based on that there is alread possibility to change behavior from Opacity to Hardness. So there is a line of code somewhere which checks if it is "Opacity" then do X, If it is "Hardness" then do Y. So only thing neede to add there would be third option; "Nothing" which would do nothing. 

If Opacity/Hardness behavior is defined by Boolean, then that varialbe type should be changed. This would be probalby the hardest part. Which should not be hard, but I'm not a software developper .... 🙂  

In Preferences this could be set as Dropdown List instead of Toggle button. 
Vertical movement controls : Opacity / Hardness / Size / Nothing 

Downsite for this would be that list migth not fit the genral "theme" how preferences is set up now, as I don't see list used that way. 

But the approving etc, part might be biggest hurdly. There is probably quite high threasold to modify Preferences. 

Would be nice to know how hard it would be to create a script that would keep opacity at 100% all the time. 

@khellstr I unfortunately would not assume that this is a very simple thing to do. Photoshop like some other original adobe products has a very old code base and it can get messy (not sure if that would be the case for this one task but it's a possibility), not mentionning the headaches of UI and adding new buttons to an already overcrowded environment and getting all of this approved by the team. It is work, it's just important for the employees to understand it's work that affect a bunch of illustrators and a lot more than it might seem.

ya its all about the opacity you must adjust it. was facing issue while designing this logo with opacity adjustment.

»Are you here to help or annoy users? You have "quite an attitude"«

@khellstr , are you addressing me? (In Feature Requests that is not displayed directly.)

If so: Have you ever tried unfollowing a six year old thread? 

...and I have been using Photoshop more than 20 years, so I have been well aweare of the things that have been suggested here for a long time. 

Are you here to help or annoy users? You have "quite an attitude" 
If first, maybe time to move on then....

I just hope this simple thing could be fixed as it should be quite straight forward. I don't want to hear multiple time same "good" advices how to circumvent this.
