Hey, I've tried researching this bug before posting, but everyone seems to be running into this issue on Windows 10 due to driver updates or Window's Ink. Since I'm on a Mac, I haven't found anything specific for this issue.

I'll be using the brush tool and every 10-15 minutes it'll switch to the move tool. If I put down the stylus and use the mouse, the brush tool will be activated again. Any ideas on this?

My drivers are up to date, latest PS is installed, and I've disabled all of the extra wacom touch/pen settings possible to limit any cross chatter.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, I haven't run into this but if it were me I would look for a key conflict. The Command key on the Mac (Ctrl on Windows) will temporarily turn the current tool into the Move tool, but when the Cmd key is released you should revert to the current tool. The V key will switch tools to the Move tool, but with spring-loaded keys a tap-and-hold on the V key will temporarily turn the current tool into the Move tool, until the V key is released.

Perhaps look for any setting in your Wacom driver, or button on your pen or tablet, that is invoking the Command key (or V key) while you are painting.
