Brush size increasing short key not working on photoshop beat after updating 25.11 m2679

Deleting the Layer Boundry shortcuts worked for me.

[andrewm35765582]

This worked!!! They had layer boundaries AND brush size set to use same key command. I turned off the shortcuts for layer boundaries in the “tools” shortcut window.

Thank you, poliwog. You really have to wonder how a developer could assign the left and right bracket keys to new functions without realizing the impact to the rest of PS. Probably not someone who actually uses PS.

Neither resizing of tools, no resetting of tools works.  I cannot change the size of any tool (up or down, larger or smaller) and in this version there doesn't appear to be a way to reset the tools ... individually or collectively.  What am I missing?  In the previous versions these items worked just fine.

The [ and ] keys don't change the brush size anymore.

Me too!

After the last Photoshop beta update, the "brackets" are no longer increasing and decreasing the size of the brushes, I have already checked the shortcut preferences and they are properly configured, I have already reset the Photoshop preferences and also. what could it be?

[mfb1962]

Reassign the show previous layer boundry boxes to < and >.  

[Stu32314935j7it]

Specifically, the following tools cannot be resized and there is no reset tool:

Brush
Eraser
Remove
Clone Stamp

New Update of Adobe Photoshop Beta version 25.11.0 20240626.m.2679 509bf35 x64, Brush size increase and decrease function is not working.

The short cut can be found Edit/Keyboard Shortcuts/  Then in the 'Shortcuts for' drop down box select Tools and its in there.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

[chulainn]

For some crazy reason in the latest update the layer boundries shortcut was assigned to the bracket keys as well as brush size ... if you delete the layer boundry shortcut they work to resize the brush again

Several Adobe apps use the [ ] shortcuts. Much of the time when keyboard shortcuts stop working, it's because another app has taken them over. It could be a browser.

Try this:

• reboot your computer
• confirm that no apps are running 
• launch only the app that has this issue and test again

Let us know if this works.

Coby,

Thankyou very much, deleting the shortcut that you indicated below fixed it.

I downloaded latest Photoshop Beta today. Square brackets no longer resizes brushes. Shift+square brackets still changes hardness.

Everything still works on normal Photoshop, so I assume a program error .

[eduardn46047352]

This worked; thank you so much!!!

Hi guys

I am working on a M3 max macbookpro and since the update of 25.11.0 my shortcuts for brushsize do not work anymore. In my settings I left all to default and asigning them again will not do the job. Starting up Photoshop 25.9.1 works perfect. Has anybody the same issues here? Or found a solution? 

Thx in advance

Silvan
