Hey guys! Does somebody know a solution the problem like a strange work by brushes such as brushes, stamp or healing brush when I use Wacom pen? It often happen when I'm pushing alt (opt) button for color picking. A cursor follows from the pick to a retouching place like a straight line with usin shift key.

UPD: So guys. I'm not sure that it can be a solution for each case but the second Reset Preferences on Quit helps to fix the problem with sudden straight lines during using ALT/OPT.

I've seen it numerous times with Wacom on Windows 7, rarely on Windows 10 or Mac. I suspect its a memory issue. Wacom is clueless and I haven't seen a permanent fix.

Its hard to make any comment about you video other then annoying music no brush settings shown no audio comment as to when and where clone source is set.  No clone source palette,  No Wacom preferences shown. It looks like pen pressure for Transfer size may not be working you see to set the transfer control on in the tools option bar at times.  I have to admit I use windows and doe not seem to have problem with Windows 10, Photoshop CS3 CS6 CC 2104 CC 2018 CC 2019 and Photoshop 2020 with my Wacom Intuos Pro. You provide little info..  Mac Version,  Photoshop Version,  Wacom device settings configuration.
