I've been wanting to use the symmetry tool in photoshop for some time, I updated it and I still can't access the tool.

I've gone into Preferences > Technology Previews and its still not an option to be able to turn on.

Any idea?

Please post a screenshot with the Brush Tool selected and including all pertinent Panels.

update: The problem turned out to be the workspace setting. Symmetry does not appear in the option menu if you have painting selected in the workspace tool, I had to set it to "core tools" again not "painting".
