Brush strokes in the Brushes panel don't show the proper mark...

Hope I can explain this correctly. The brush stroke in the said named panel doesn't always show the proper mark in the Brushes panel. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.

 

In the preferences, it says my GPU is being used in advanced mode. So that shouldn't be a problem, should it?

 

Does anyone know why the mark is a general stroke and not the specific mark for that brush?

This might be pretty obvious and not the probem at all, but I assume in the brush panel you have selected
"Thumbnail" and not "Stroke"?

I'm not sure I get you Leslie. In the "Brushes" panel (not "Brush panel"), I don't have any "thumbnail", I have "Brush Stroke" selected. It shows me all the basic brushes with either soft or hard but doesn't show tapering of brushes where pressure can be applied to the stroke showing either transparency, width, or some other aspect of the brush stroke.

 

Where is the enabling of a thumbnail? I have the latest version of Ps CC.

Hello Trevor,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

I am seeing the non-tapered brush stroke in the brushes panel even after first using a pen and tablet.

 

I don't think the second thought regarding what options I have checked is relevant.

 

I am using Windows 10 64 bit pro and it's up to date. I am using Ps CC version 22.4.2, the latest update.

 

I am using an XP-Pen Artist 22 pro with an up to date driver.

 

I am not using any third party apps.

 

I was wondering if the XP-Pen driver is the problem?

 

Any thoughts?

R.


This problem has plagued me for a while.

On the zoom bar beneath the thumbnails use your pen to move the sliders to increase or decrease the zoom. This should redraw the thumbnails with pen pressure visible. If you use your mouse to move this bar they'll be redrawn without pen pressure visible. This works on my current version of photoshop.

    I've also seen brush updates lagging or not occurring in recent versions. I was able to resolve it by collapsing and expanding the panel, but you may also want to change your GPU setting from Advanced to Basic, or turn it off, completely, to troubleshoot.

    Thanks for the reply S_Gans!

     

    I tried all that you mentioned - to no avail. Not sure how to troubleshoot the problem.

     

    Very few replies.
