since yesterday, I've been facing this issue, the mixture brush color doesnt stay transparent, it changes colors, and adds gray color to the highlights and makes it dull, 

I've tried reset the brush tool, reset to default photoshop settings, changed to beta, re-installed, removed and installed crack version as i had a deadline to deliver my work, but nothing worked, 

switched back to my paid version, nothing seems to be working, 

please help, 

 

PLEASE REFER TO THE IMAGE ATTACHED FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDING.

any help is hugely appriciated.

thanks

Hi all, I'm not able to reproduce this bug on either Mac or Win. Mixer Brush appears to be working as expected for me in 25.13 beta.

I do however see weird stuff showing up in the little swatch icon that, yes, previously was expected to be transparent grid when loading is turned off.

@Retouch By_Danny1985  what do you see when you click the drop-down next to the swatch? It's strange that you see a multi-color gradient in there.

ON THE DROP DOWN NEXT TO THE SWATCH, I SEE

1. load brush

2.clean brush

3.load solid color only

 

ALL UNCHECKED,  PLEASE REFER THE IMAGE

Hi all,
I have the same issue. I've noticed this after update Photoshop 25.11

Tried the same as @Retouch By_Danny1985 
Windows 10 Home, 22H2
Before the update all was fine.

Will do Danny. The mixer brush still works for me. It's just the swatch icon not showing tranparency.
