Question

My Brush Tip Preview is gone, just seeing the crosshair.

PS 25.13.0

MacOS 14.6.1

 

As in the title, my brush cursor tip preview is gone. It shows briefly if I change brush sizes but disappears immediately after. 

I tried a few different tools and with normal and full-size brush tip. And changing the brush tip outline weight (new feature to me - kudos, look forward to playing with that). Quit and relaunched photoshop, but haven't tried a restart.

 

Never mind, I moved over to regular photoshop and it was doing it there too. Did a restart, all is well. 

Sigh "did you try turning it off and then on again?" When will I learn...

 

Thanks!

N.

When Caps Lock is enabled, the brush cursor turns into a crosshair. Is that what you are seeing? If so, turn off Caps Lock.

Thanks. Good note, don't think I was aware of that one. Wasn't what was happening... but a restart did the trick.
