The brush I'm using is constantly in a flat 0, _ shape, and won't rotate and will only stay a single direction. Help?

    This is the usual way to achieve that, but I'd be interested to see what preset you are using.

    Could you post a screenshot of the Brush Settings panel, with the Shape Dynamics section showing?

    Hi Uels,

    You can try rotating the canvas by using the Rotate View tool, Press the R key or click-and-hold the Hand tool at the bottom of the Toolbox and select the Rotate View tool. Click-and-drag on the document until you reach your desired placement. For precision and consistency, you can also enter rotation numerically in the Rotation Angle field in the Options Bar.

    Regards,
    Sahil
