Is it possible to change brush size/hardness with trackpad? I really like the mouse up/down, left/right shortcut, but with macbook trackpad it's not working.

Works here on a MacBook Pro.

Just hold down control + option, click and move your finger left or right on the trackpad.

(or up/down)

Hi there,

Thanks for reaching out.

It's not possible to change the brush size with swipe gestures via the trackpad, because swipe gestures are allocated to zoom in and out the canvas in Photoshop.

You may post a feature suggestion for future updates here: https://feedback.photoshop.com/ This forum is monitored by our product team and they might look into this idea.
