P: Brush tool opacity also changes brush HUD preview opacity

[simonhellsten]

In CS6 the feather preview gets almost invisible when working with low opacity. Is there any way getting the preview showed in 100% opacity even tough I have it on, say 4%? Like it used to be in previous versions.

Could you give a little more detail?

The Feather command doesn't have a preview, so I can't figure out what you're referring to.

[simonhellsten]

Maybe the feather isn't the real problem, rather the opacity preview.

When I change the brush size or the softness of the edges on my brush using Ctrl+option key It's almost impossible to se what I'm doing when working in low opacity. In previous version the brush preview was solid red even if I had a low opacity.

Do you understand what I mean?

[simonhellsten]

Wat I mean is that I don't want to see how low the opacity is when changing my brush size. I want it to be solid red even when working in low opacity.

Ok, that finally defines what you're talking about: the brush hardness/size preview when using HUD brush resizing. And you don't want the brush tool opacity to change the preview opacity.

[simonhellsten]

Exactly. Is there a solution??

Hello!!!!??

Hahaha. Yo Chris! What's the answer?!

[simonhellsten]

He had to think about it... For two years..

[danceswithweb]

He's still thinking. Maybe if you defined your problem a third time?

[danceswithweb]

But yeah, this same problem is driving me nuts!

[simonhellsten]

Haha, yeah, now two years later i've kinda accepted it even tough I hate it.
