Lightroom Classic 8.3.1 "Problem with brush tool" macOS 10.14.5

[jodyoalaska]

I recently began having a problem with the brush tool with all local adjustments that use it included graduated filter, radial filter and adjustment brush. It will erase fine, but if I switch back to add, it continues to erase. Anyone else having this problem? If so, any solutions? Thanks in advance.

Can you provide any further details so the community can assist you?

Is this in Lightroom (Cloud) Desktop and if so, which version number?

Oh yes! I'm on LR Classic cloud, 8.3.1 release and MacBook Pro OS 10.14.5. The problem is intermittent. Seems like the brush tool keeps getting stuck on erase.

Hi Jody,

That shouldn't be happening, let us help make this right.

As the brush tool is not working as expected, Have you tried turning off the GPU option from Lightroom's preferences?

Go to Lightroom > Preferences > Performance tab > Uncheck "Use Graphics Processor" > Restart Lightroom

If that does not help then you should try resetting the preferences of Lightroom and see if that help: How to set Lightroom Classic preferences

Thank you for the quick reply! At the moment it's working, but I will try your recommendations when/if it happens again.
