Brush overlay stuck!

[Coreyinthehou32242496qb35]

I've been having this issue latley on Lightroom desktop (not classic) where the 'red' brush overlay is stuck even when im not editing/just in preview mode. 
I'm on the latest update and still nothing (version: 8.3.1 ). It could be a software bug on the recent updates -but I honestly think its more to do with the fact that I only have 8gb of ram. I currently use the 2022 Macbook Pro m2 8gb ram- 256gb storage. 

what I don't understand is why my ipad doesnt have this problem- it runs better on there tbh. 

Any help would be appriciated.

Hi @Coreyinthehou32242496qb35,

We are sorry for not getting back to you sooner. That does sound frustrating! Could you please try updating Lightroom to the latest version (8.4) and check if the issue persists?

Also, to help us investigate better, it would be great if you could:

1. Copy & paste your full system info from the Help > System Info menu in Lightroom.

2. Share a screen recording showing the stuck brush overlay issue in action.

This will help us pinpoint whether it’s a software glitch, performance limitation, or something else entirely.

Looking forward to your update!

Best,

Anshul Saini

Oh sorry I haven't responded earlier, but so far after a recent update, the problem went away.....for now...

I don't remember the exact update but I do remember it being a week or two after posting the issue.

Thanks for helping me.
