Fluid Brush Tool Bug

Hello. I’ve been using adobe for a few months now, but all of a sudden, I think after the most recent update, I noticed that none of my tools were working. However, my fluid brush tool was working. Then as soon as I clicked on the fluid brush tool, everything I did appeared instantly. I clicked on History and everything I was doing was being registered, it just wasn’t showing up. It would only show up after I clicked on the fluid brush tool. I restarted my computer and did everything I could, resetting everything, but it’s just not working. There’s another post about this called ‘Fluid Brush is breaking things’ which has a YouTube video of the exact issue. Please help. Thank you.

Have you tried a simple uninstall and a reinstall? Latest version is 22.0.8.

Hi, i am having the same problem under windows 10 with version 20.5.1.

So far i tried reinstalling, updating and deleting the files under Appdata/roaming and /local.
I get a white screen except when i select the fluid brush tool. i can use everything, but i only see what i did when i click on the fluid brush icon. maybe it has to do with the graphics card?
i have an NVIDI GeForce GTX 745.
There are others in this forum who had the same problem, but no solutions yet.

Any idea would be aprreciated.

Hi, as a little update, i updated my graphics card driver manually (windows claims that is had the most current) to version 352.63 beta, and now the white screen is gone, huzzah.
but i can´t use the fluid brush anymore.
Which is fine for me. maybe this will help somehow.

Hi mate,

 

There had been a few similar threads here a few months ago.

Try to search the forum.

As far as I can remember one user reported that after updating OS and/or video driver the problem disappeared.
