Scripted pattern brick fill options

Hi all,

I'm having trouble when trying to fill an area with a brick fill pattern. I've done this a million times, but I had Windows reinstalled recently and Photoshop along with it. After clicking OK, I used to get a dialog box with sliders for different modifiers, such as: scale, spacing, colour randomness, etc.

The problem is that the dialog box doesn't pop up now! After I click OK, the brick pattern applies with some random default options I guess, and I can't modify it.

How do I make that options box appear again? I would appreciate your help, as I can't find an answer for this anywhere.

I use Photoshop CC Version 14.0 x64 with Windows 10.

Thank you,

Denis

Correct answer gener7

What version of Photoshop are you using?


He mentions the first Photoshop CC, v 14.0 which I think should be 14.2.1 with all updates applied.

But then again window 10 would support CC 2017 or CC 2018.

Do you have a subscription?

Check the Photoshop subfolder Presets\Deco and make sure you have _Deco Menu.jsx. If you don't, you might need to reinstall PS to have the proper scripts installed.

Hi

I assume this is the dialog you're talking about

The only thing I can suggest is to try resetting PS preference

Preferences in Photoshop

I don't seem to have that option

Try this method

To restore preferences quickly using a keyboard shortcut: Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) as you start Photoshop. You are prompted to delete the current settings. The new preferences files are created the next time you start Photoshop
