Hi all,

I followed this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUWUlhdBMqs but when I go to paint the colour on the layer nothing happens at all.  Im using PS CC 2017.

Any ideas?

Chris

    I did not watch the video. That said, when painting on a layer and nothing appears, the usual reason is that the Mode in the Brush Options bar is not set to Normal or its Opacity is not set to 100%

    Watching the video was quite important I guess but anyway:

    I load up my photo >>  New layer >> Change the blending mode to colour mode on the layer >> select B for brush > ensure the brush is in normal mode and everything is 100% (opacity, flow etc etc) >> select a colour on the photo using eyedropper >> start to correct the lens flare >>> Nothing happens

    After choosing the Brush, did you hold down the Option key to select a suitable color before painting as instructed in the video?
