Hi! I created a brush and everything is working. So when I want to change options of that brush I can do this some times, but after a few changes I cannot change the options anymore so I have do quit illustrator and open again to do that. It's totally annoying 'cause when I create a brush, I need to do a lot of tests. Could someone help me? I recorded a video of my problem:

Thanks!

    I tried it and get the same issue. If I reset some of the settings back to default levels, Illustrator finally lets me click OK.

    It seems like a bug, so I checked Uservoice. Looks like it has been reported. Upvote it to get it seen. Scatter Brush - cannot make adjustments – Adobe Illustrator Feedback

    Yup, same. All settings work initially but as I try to fine tune them the settings become unresponsive and won't let me click "OK".

    Please tell us how much RAM you have and what kind of brush that is.

    Almost four years, and this is still an issue in the latest version of Illustrator. Might we ever see a fix for this?

        Thanks Myra! I just upvoted. Hope it comes on a future Illustrator update.

        Just did some other tests and I could change the settings an unlimited times only if I create a brush and don't change the name. When I finally change the name after a few setting changes I couldn't hit OK. But if I click Cancel and come again to edit, I can change every setting normally and click ok only if I don't change the name.

        Soooo strange.
