Hi,

I am currently working with Photoshop 2020. I wanted to activate the brush preview (see photo 01) so I can see what type of brush I am drawing with but the button has disappeard (see photo 02). How can I get this back?

Brush preview of erodible brushes etc as shown in the original post at the top of this thread is not back. The right click context menu is back though.

      You can re-install Photoshop 2020 if you removed it when upgrading to Photoshop 2021, but you may have to migrate the presets manually.

            I've recently read that they've removed this feature with a recent update.
