I've looked at the previous posts on this subject, but none of the solves work for me (restarting Photoshop, reset to default brushes). I'm attaching a video of the behavior, as well as screenshots of my workspace and brush settings. I've also tried looking at the settings for my tablet, but everything is set to the default.

Does anyone see anything wrong?

I'm on version 21.1.2 on Mac Mojave.

Hello,

I'm only commenting this just in case you all made the same dumb mistake like me.... If your pen for whatever tablet you're using has a "Pen/Erase" button it might be switched to the "eraser" button.

On screen it will show that you're still using a brush, even though the eraser is actually what's being used.

Hope this helps.
