Wacom disable pen pressure requirement

  • August 26, 2017

Using CC2017 PS, Windows 10, and a Wacom Intuos CTL 490 Draw

I would like to disable the pen pressure settings and have the pen work as if pressed

down all the way all of the time.  I use this in Layer Masks deleting objects and it takes

full pressure to remove all.

The pen pressure icon in the brush tool bar doesn't disable the pen pressure effect.

Are there brushes available that don't respond to pen pressure or is there another

way to disable?

    I have solved the problem, but it's not by clicking the icon in the tool bar that you

    have highlighted in red. 

    It's that other icon - the one between Opacity and Flow percentages - that needs to be turned off.

    It's the Opacity that needs to be changed.  The icon you have marked is for Size.  I had been

    clicking that to no avail.

    Once the Opacity icon is clicked, there's no pen pressure requirement.  Just what I want.

    Thanks for your reply, though.

    All three Icon there are for pen support  Opacity Size and Airbrush I showed what is involved with size (Shape Dynamics).  You Address Opacity (Transfer) settings.
