Refine the inactive Brush Tip

I have been using Photoshop for a while and I am puzzled by what they emit just popped up.  I used Photoshop to refine edge all weekend.  Last night I'm not sure that I did, but I've made my choice and went to improve the contour and tried to highlight the area. The pointer of the mouse has a "circle with a bar slash" and when I click on the screen I get the error sound.  I can't figure out what I did.  I use the same exact files, I used all day.  I even closed the program a few times.

Any thoughts?

It could be that show the Original is active.

  • Refine the inactive brush

    I use the updated Photoshop CC 2015 and Mac Book Pro version:

    After making a selection and creation of a mask I have active dialog improve the mask. I am unable to act because the brush is inactive. I get a black circle with a slash through it. Never had this happen before.

    Any suggestions?

  • I refine my selection brush tip is a circle with a line through it

    I don't know what is happening, but every time Adobe updated the program happens something evil. I use edge tool I refine my selection for years and now with the last update from last night, it does not work.

    • I make my selection then click on refine edge
    • This opens the dialog box
    • I select the overlay as my display mode
    • Then select the RADIUS tool refine

    Instead of the normal work with any brush I get is a circle with a line through it, so I can't say anything.

    Have they added a new switch that automatically prevents the user to use this tool now? Worked fine a few days before the last update.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    The biggest problem with these questions is they always happen when you change a photoshoot and cost ridiculous amounts of time and frustration and to prevent on time delivery.

    I guess that Yes JJMack, but to reinstall everything is a pain in the occipital region. I'm on CC and as updates come just click to install. Refining the edges of the selection is such a basis now that I'm surprised that that happened.

    Finally, I called Adobe and solved it. The tech told me that with a few updates the "user settings" file is corrupt.

    He would do a total reset but of course I'm worried of losing work spaces I had worked to build so it copied those on the desktop, then named the settings file... "old"and challenged market PS

    Who have to rebuild the settings file, and we tried again and still had the problem, so he tried a second time and on that one edge tool refine magically started working again.

    My workspaces were rmoved to the right folder and these work now too.

    Now, I can get this finished filming.

    Kind regards

  • CS3 "Brush Tip shape" - spacing option?

    Hi, I use CS3 and I wanted to create a few dotted lines, followed the advice, but the spacing option is not there.

    What should I do?

    Thank you.

    Looks like you missed something.  Spacing with the shape bristle brush for Photoshop 7 and he was there in a slightly different way to Photoshop 3 or more.

    My guess is you do not look to the section of the palette brush tip shape forms, but rather searching the list of presets.

  • Change the brush tip

    My brush and dropper tips had changed when I opened the program today.  I'm moving specific to normal.  I tried to change through preferences, but it seems that my changes will not save.  I have 10 elements and Windows 8.

    Sometimes you will still see the precise cursor if the brush is really small or larger than the document itself.

    Have you tried the default loading brushes and using one of the predefined brushes?

    Your work on a document to normal size?

    You could try to reset the Brush tool.

  • Refine the tool missing - select and mask does not work on hair

    I also do not know how to use this tool. I need to select the edges of the hair and used the brush once I was inside the dialog box refine edge. This allowed me to use the brush on the edges of the hair, and he would choose loose bristles. Now select the and mask feature selects a large part of color that is affected by the brush and does not select just the strands. So I find myself with a person's head and a blob of 3 inches from the bottom red on each side of the head, because it acts as the tool magic wand or quick selection instead.

    How to make a selection with the lasso tool, then refine the edge and select the hair? I often hear to use the pen tool, but who's transformed into a selection eventually anyway. Is not wise to make a selection tool feather each and every time you want to select the hair - I make a selection of the entire body of the person and what part of it can refine the edge. Totally lost on how to select just the hair strands and refine the edge.

  • Changed Photoshop 7 Brush Tip

    Until today, when I opened photoshop and went to use the brush, he had a full circle to the tip of the brush.

    Today, she changed to a staircase, for the most part, square circle. How do I change back to the edge of the circle. I have reset the

    the default brushes and no difference. I rebooted photoshop from a backup and no difference. The change must

    be in a file that is not in the folder of photoshop.

    Well well after some Explorer and frustration, it seems that the problem was with the file that I tried to change. I saved it as a bitmap

    and something happened to her. When I converted it to jpg format, all of a sudden everything was going well. Brush mode showed

    normal and everything else was there. This has been a learning experience for me.  Thanks for the attention. But the problem seems to have been resolved.

  • Brush Tip shape

    Under brush tip shapes, the 'Dynamic form' option does not turn off even after that I have untick the option of turning it on. When I try to paint, "Shape Dynamics" continues to restart automatically as soon as I apply the Brush tool. How to stop brush tip shape "Dynamic shape" to be extinct? Is this a bug or is at - it another way to disable it? I use PsCS6. The second image shows how, even when I turn off the coast, the dynamics of the form is still touching the tip of the brush.

  • Some missing brush tips

    Anyone an idea why I get a regular brush in some cases and something like the coss-hairs of a rifle sight in others. I find that happens when I simply opened photo and copied. (With the help of PSE 8.) The Brush tool still works fine; There is a round brush tip. But, by selecting one of the two brushes produced healing only reticle.

    I fooled around trying to find what the problem: tried it with a layer of setting and without saved/closed and reopened, tried to reset all the settings of the tool. I hope that there is something obvious that I'm missing.

    There are a few things to do:

    1. Edit... Preferences... Display of cursors & and see if you put the cursor displays correctly.
    2. Increase the size of the brush.
    3. Turn off your CapsLock key.

  • preference of brush tip

    using mac OS 10.6.8 with CS5 Xtnd: I do not understand! When I started using this app (and I spent a lot of time he insult no result) and until recently, in both modes of normal or full size showing xhairs and I use as paint or erase the effect is always much less than the diameter of the tip. What is? I need a trick that is fine on board which is supposed to be the point... because she is there's absolutely nothing specific about it. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Thanks to try Herugrim; what I found was to be a preference of operating system (OSX6.8) where I had chosen to increase the size of my slider. What it did was give me a false brush size, increasing the diameter according to the slider but without the following Brush tool that lead - correctly I think so. Then maybe a slight adjustment of the software could make this adaptable tool to the size of the cursor variable.

    However, having found a solution to this episode, I'm still stuck with a function of stroke (tool) that does not propoerly - see the analysis of the stroke. see you soon

  • Edge artifacts remain after using the selection Brush tool

    I use the Brush tool selection, with a hardness of 100%, the value to sketch an image I want to upload a different photo.  I have described very precisely the image and the outline of ants market indicates the degree of precision which has been achieved with the desired outline.

    However, when I switch mode 'Sélection' in the 'Mask' mode, there seems to be at the burrs and other 'streaks' around the line of the selected image.  When I copy the slected in a new image layer on another photo, smudge and streaks around the selected image forming are very apparent.

    I thought that a 100% hardness value would not all artifacts to stay beyond the line of the selection.

    No idea as to what could be the cause?

    Yes (mobile dotted) selections show only what is 50% or more selected and that may be one reason, you can see additional fields when you go to master view, which

    shows everything that is selected and also with the help of a layer mask show all selected areas.

    The selection brush use some anti-aliasing like the Brush tool same hardness of 100%, which is in fact what you usually want when selections. If your selection is hard edged

    as you get using pencil, then when you paste a photo or put a background behind the selected area, the woul result seem very fake.

    view 3200% on selection to 100% hardness brush.

    Clearly, light anti-aliasing on the edges.

    view of 3200% with the pencil in quick mask mode tool (similar to the mode mask selection brush)

    Note the hard edges. (photoshop elements does not come with a quick mask and you cannot use the pencil tool

    with the selection brush, but you can use the pencil tool on a layer mask)

    Using the selection tools is very good, but usually no one wiill you get a selection perfect without additional work.

    This is why make a layer mask to selection, will give you a lot more flexibility to refine your selection.
