Please lock the brush panel in the next version of Photoshop.

With the new brush panel, it's easy to accidentally move brushes around while selecting them, especially when working quickly. I'm sure other people are frustrated by this.

 

Please add a feature to lock the panel with your next version that help with this problem. The old brush panel didn't have this problem since you had to edit the brush preset to be able to move them.

Thank you!

It doesn't let me upvote this so just commenting to move to the top.  This has been driving me nuts for years now.  Seems like such a simple thing to add since there are so many other lock settings.  This and locking layers in place.  Same deal.

 

It's both annoying barely miss clicking a layer and it gets moved into another group folder and brushes getting moved when you don't even hold the button down.  Simple fraction of a second click and woop, there it goes.

Just upvoted this.

It is still so annoying !

A quick lock panel option would solve this easily. Should not be too hard to program guys 😉
