Hi there,

 

I have an issue with the healing brush tool when using apple pencil (2. gen) in sidecar mode an my iPad Pro.

Photoshop seems to be using the only the tip of the pencil no matter which brush size is selected.

The other tool are working just fine although the lack of an hover mode is kind of a bummer.

Does anyone have a suggestion? I would highly apprecite it.

 

MacOS Catalina 10.15.7

iPad Pro 12,9" (latest gen)

Apple Pencil (2. gen)

Photoshop 22.4.1

Macbook Pro 16"

 

Best,

Manuel

Have you checked your brush settings? Have you tried using Shape Dynamics in Brush Settings? Do you have any of the pressure options active in the options panel at the top of screen?

Simply selecting a brush does not auto activate these pen/pressure sensitive options.

Hi Kevin,

Thanks a lot for the support.
Indeed pen pressure was active. Turning that off solved the issue. I´m really happy about that!
A never had any problems of that kind with my Wacoms so I wasn´t thinking about it.
Best,
Manuel
