Eraser tool is square, not a circle

Community Beginner ,
Dec 27, 2016 Dec 27, 2016

Hi I can't get the eraser tool to the shape of a circle. For years it always was in the shape of a circle, Now when I go to use it there is the shape of a square. It still erases but the circle is easier to use.

You can chose to use any brush preset with the eraser, the same as with the brush tool.  Right click on the canvas to open the brush selection panel, and chose the preset you want.
