Cursor is Off When Using Adjustment Brush

Is anyone else having or solved this problem?
In Lighroom 3.5 (all updates installed), when I attempt to use the Adjustment Brush tool, my mouse cursor appears to be off. After choosing the tool, if I click a location on my picture, it acts as if I actually clicked down and to the right roughly and inch. Also, when I move the cursor from the photo back to the tool pane, it "jumps" about the same amount as soon as I cross between the two panes. It's very annoying and renders the brush unusable.
Installed on a recent MBA with Lion.
Any help is greatly appreciated...

Dorin,
I do not think it is a videocard problem. Everything else works fine, no problem. I have used Lightroom under Vista and now I use Windows 7 ultimate. I also used Windows ultimate before the crash. When I use e.g. Google maps and I enlarge the map everything is OK. The problem occurs also when I use the laptop's touchpad.
I do not know what videocard or driver version....
I hope this helps anyway.....

  • Black speckles when using adjustment brushes

    I'm having an ongoing issue with Lightroom 4.4 when using adjustment brushes in the development module with RAW files from a Canon 5d Mark III Raw on a retina MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.3  When using the adjustment brush to make exposure adjustments, the adjusted area gets covered with tiny black speckles. I see it when trying to darken down highlights or when trying to lighten shadow areas. The heavier the adjustment, the worse the speckles get. I have taken the same original images and opened them in Photoshop and made similar local adjustments with curves and the images look fine, so it's definitely an error with Lightroom inserting the artifacts. Any suggestions?

    Turn off the AutoMask checkbox in the brush options.

    We can't do darker, but try Shift-O to cycle through other colours.

  • Highlight loss when using adjustment brush & graduated filter.

    Hi
    I'm using Lightroom 2.2 on a Mac.
    Is anyone else having the same problem? :
    When using the graduated filter or adjustment brush on an image it seems to cause some of the top end highlights to burnout, which is rather frustrating as it is usually when I am trying to rein them in a little.
    It seems to happen automatically even when not working directly on those areas and I cannot pull them back with the localised adjustment tools themselves.
    Any thoughts would be most welcome.
    Thanks
    Graham

    Hi Eric
    Thanks for your reply
    I've had another look at it... whenever I have a negative exposure setting on the brush or gradient and apply it anywhere in the image it seems to affect the top end highlights throughout the image even if they haven't been clicked on.
    It's just a small change but it is frustrating to lose highlight detail when you've worked hard to capture it in camera!
    Look forward to hearing from you.

    That sounds like you have internal damage in the SIM card slot. Try taking the phone to an Apple store for evaluation. Make a genius bar appointment first at http://apple.com/retail.

  • Why does Photoshop CC running slow when using Mixer brush tool

    Why does Photoshop CC and Photoshop C6 running SOOO slowly when using Mixer brush tool??
    Only to create one stroke it takes several seconds.
    I have to wait a long time to do next stroke. I can't work with this. How do I fix this??
    I have a new computer, a Mac Book Pro with 16 GB ram, so I have plenty of ram.

    You really have to keep your brush size small with the Mixer Brush tool.  And that necessitates keeping your canvas failry small as well.
    Back a few years ago I did a whole painting with the Mixer Brush once and some of the bristle brushes - just to see if I could - and I found I had to really limit the brush size (e.g., to 50 to 75) in order to get enough responsiveness to keep painting.  In that case my canvas was 4096 x 5120.  It's not impossible to get a good, professional result, but you have to be careful about sizing things right.

    Click on the top right corner in the tool option bar of the brush tool and select "Reset Tool". Probably your blending mode other than 'Normal' is selected.

  • Why does my image blink on and off when using selecton tool

    why does my image blink on and off when using selection tool

    This is due to the hardware acclerated drawing not working properly because your graphics hardware doesn't support it right. This is usually resolved by updating the graphics driver to the latest version. If this is not possible, turn off OpenGL in Preferences --> Performance.

  • CS4 raw editing, global adjustments versus useing "Adjustment Brush"

    I had made a post earlier about CS4's raw editor hanging when working on .cr2 files ( canon). It seems that the raw editor works fine when makeing global adjustments, but when using the adjustment brush to make selective adjustments the program hangs for extended times. A global brightness adjustment will go thru in a couple of seconds at most, where as a photo with a few selective adjustments made to it will hang for as long as 5 minutes or more. Moving the image around is fluid when dealing with a image that does not have selective adjustments, and hangs when dealing with an image that has selective adjustments. The program seems set up to make selective adjustments ( it does have a selective adjustment brush after all ) but useing that option seems to cause such massive problems that it is un usable. The raw editor seems to use 50 to 100% of the proccesor during the hang time, and there is no disk activity which leads me to believe that there is not a problem with not haveing enough ram.
      I would appreciate any help that can be given with this problem

    First off let me say thank you for your responce.  But if what I have been doing is
    selective tone adjustments, not HDR
    That doesn't change the fact it would be a feature that can enhance the image process none the less.
    But not all the images I process are single shot images... I actually take time to scout a spot. Then I take about 3-4 shots at different exposures. Go into Camera Raw and and make different versions(snapshots) of those images.  Then create a document for each of those (snapshots) Then I open in a HDR program... NOW Photoshop HDR... and process them. The effect is different than the normal way of converting images into HDR... I think even more precise, or at least in my opinion.  So creating a feature like this will give the user the ability to streamline the workflow.
    So much of what you described doesn't belong in the HDR plugin, but is already available as tools in ACR or Photoshop itself.
    But what about the HDR adjustment brush tool I suggested?  That really sounds like a good possibility that people would like to utilize when creating HDR images.

  • Unable to add further Edits using Adjustment Brush in Lightroom 5.

    Using Lightroom 5 - when I go back to a previously edited image to do further editing, using the Adjustment Brush, I open the effect that I want to use ( Dodge, for example) but all the sliders are inoperative. The word 'Dodge (Edited)' appears in the Effects header. Therefore I can't make any further changes to the image. I have opened the drop down Effects menu and ticked 'Restore default presets' but to no avail. Any solutions welcome.

    Thank you for that trshaner. The density was set at 100 but flow only 86. I've shoved that up to 100 now and I think we may have a result!
    Thanks again.

  • Sound drops off when using hdmi outport to connect computer to an AV reciever

    Satellite M640,I5 2410 processor, windows 7HP. After about three minutes the sound drops off when connected to the av reciever through the hdmi outport. If I touch the trackpad the computer reconnects for another three minutes and  then disconnects. If I touch the the trackpad about every two minutes the computer stays connected indefinetly. This problem does not occur if I use the computer to play an audio CD. Any fix suggestions.

  • LR 3.5 "Stops working" when using the brush tool.

    I am not able to use the brush tool when 'developing' any image without the message "Lightroom has stopped working" coming up. I have tried developing other images with the same result. As soon as I try to brush it crashes. This has only been the case since I upgraded to LR 3.5 recently. Has anyone else experienced the same?

    Mmmmm, firts I would suggest removing the Prefernce file by shifting it to the desktop (with Lr closed).

  • Iphone switches off when using apps needing a connection

    Hi all, my first post, really hope you can help!! My iphone has been giving me trouble for some time now. It started to turn off when i am connected, via wifi or 3g, doesnt matter, it shows the little circle loader, and turns off. Also i have restored various times, and the apps simply wont open, the screen flickers and nothing happens. What could it be??
    Thanks

    More details: My phone turned itself off today for no reason, while in my pocket.
    Also, I tried using the facebook app and as usual it turned the phone off, as it does anytime an internet connection is used... but I noticed when it turns back on that it says the battery is less than 20% when its freshly been recharged... then I restart and the battery status comes back to normal.
    I'm trying a complete format, and a start from zero. Will post the results.

  • Photoshop CS5 keeps crashing when using a brush.

    Hey all,
    For the life of me, my team and I cannot figure out why this keeps happening.
    1) Open Photoshop
    2) Do everything/anything I would normally do while creating some art.
    3) Create a new layer with no background to brush on.
    4) Choose a brush and append it to the drop down.
    5) Select the size of the brush and color
    6) Start to brush
    7) CRASH EVERY TIME
    I have done this multiple times and restarted multiple times. I even have tried using a different file, a new file, different brushes, etc. The same thing always happens. However, I will say that when using some of the other brushes I can get about one stroke and when I go to make another, it crashes. It seems that the bush will crash instantly however, if I use any of the special effect brushes. Mind you I have NO third party or custom brushes. Everything that I have in Photoshop is default.
    The only thing that I can think that might be the issue is that my CS5 production suite is a upgraded suite from the CS4 web design suite. Upon installing the CS5, the instructions said that there should be an "upgrade" option/window in which I should put my product ID. That never came up, just the standard install/product ID window. Thus, CS4 and CS5 (both full) are on my Mac. Could this be the issue?
    Any suggestions? Anyone else have this issue?
    Thanks!

    Yes, I installed the 12.0.1 update. This was happening prior to and after the install.
    I am pretty sure im 64 bit
    CMYK color with 8bits, should that be on 16?
    No I have no 3rd party plugins.
