Multiple issues - no alt, any brush or select only registers initial click point, no drag.
Ok, bear with me please as this is the first time I’m asking a question but I’ve been a photoshop user for over 15 years. I am having problems in the last month that after editing a bit several things will happen at once- My alt no longer works (I am usually using it before adding layer mask in order to hide all when I notice it). Any brush type tool (brush, heal, dodge, etc) as well as quick select and lasso, etc will only register the initial place I click and will not drag. Meaning one pin point whatever size and nothing else. IT seems to be only in photoshop, although I did notice in Camera raw none of my sliders are working. I can adjust by clicking or manually entering numbers but I cannot grab and drag it across the sliders which I used to be able to do. That is a constant and doesn’t happen just with the glitch happens.
When the glitch happens, restarting photoshop will fix it temporarily. I cannot find one thing that sets it off, after MULTIPLE days of testing things.
Before you suggest- I have reset preferences, I have completely deleted and reinstalled all my adobe apps. I removed and uninstalled my wacom tablet completely and this still happens just using my mouse. I have tried every single option I have found online. My drivers are all updated. I even uninstalled and reinstalled my NVDIA drivers. I even tried to roll back drivers. I’m so frustrated at this point that I’m so close to just giving up photoshop and finding something else.
