How do I get the adjustment brush to "paint" white?

How do I get the adjustment brush to "paint" white? I have tried the  color panel, but nothing works.

Make sure 'Auto Mask' is unchecked, Flow & Density = 100, and desired Feathering is set before painting. Set the Adjustment Brush to Exposure = +4. If you have LR5 right-click on the Adjustment Brush pin you just created and select Duplicate. If you have LR4 or earlier you'll probably need to manually paint the area twice with Exposure = +4.

  • How do I use the adjustment brush to mask and not turn my item green?

    I have shot some products for my web site.  I need completely white backgrounds. I have tried to mask the product and lighten the whites, but when I click done, my product has turned very green.
    Why?  How do you use the brush?  Also, where is the invert to make this easier on me?
    Kind of urgent, I need to get these items on my site already.
    I know the answer is simple... I just don't know what it is.
    Thanks

    Have you tried without the adjustment brush, by simply adjusting white balance from the basic tab in develop?
    Click on the eye dropper tool and then click on a neutral gray color. Use the background if it is neutral rather than white. You may need to keep selecting the eye dropper to click in a few different places for best results.
    If you decide to use the adjustment brush you can show or hide the mask. Uncheck the mask when you have finished painting; then use the sliders, starting with tint and temperature.

  • Why is the History Brush only painting white on my picture instead of the colors from my text file?

    I am working on a project for my online class and am having difficulties with the History Brush.  Note that both files are identical in size etc.
    1.  I created a color text file and saved it with a specific name.
    2.  I copied an existing photo from iPhoto, as I couldn't import into PhotoShop,  and pasted it in a new file.  I then removed the white background layer and then saved it with its now specific name and closed the file.
    3. I re-opened the Color Text File.
    4.  I then re-opended my photo.
    5.  I performed a "Select All" from the menu bar of my active Photo then selected Edit - Copy and then closed my Photo file.
    6.  From my Color Text File I selected Edit and then Paste from the menu bar.
    7.  I selected Layer and Flatten Image from the menu bar.
    8.  I right clicked the background image from the Layers Panel and created a snapshot (which is my photo)
    9.  I selected the History brush and verified that this also displayed in the gray box associated with the Color Text file within the History Panel.
    10.  I verified that my photo image was displayed in my work area.
    11.  I start to fill the photo with my History Brush and the only color I get is White.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    You seem to think that a History State equals a Layer.  That couldn't be farther from the truth.

     …We are then suppose to click the History brush from the Tools Panel and verify that the little box next to the Tie-Dye image is selected and displays the History Brush.  Now the document area should display the photo, at this point we are suppose to paint the photo with 1 stroke.  The painted colors would be that from the Tie-Dye image…
    That's not clearly phrased, but it sounds totally wrong.  Again, a History State will not just show you what you just pasted, but your entire image, with ALL its layers.
    Normally, to use the History Brush one goes back one step in the History Panel AFTER you have created your snapshot, so that you'll be selectively applying the changes to your image as it was before the filter.  Here's an example:
    You've finished editing an image.  Fine.  Now you apply an Unsharp Mask filter (to the whole image, of course) and immediately create your Snapshot.
    Now you step back in the History Panel to the state BEFORE you applied the sharpening.  You make sure your History Brush is targeting the sharpened Snapshot, but you start painting on the History State BEFORE you applied the sharpening.
    Now you can start applying selective sharpening with your History Brush in whatever blending mode you wish.  For selective sharpening, the History Brush in Luminosity blending mode gives you fantastic results.
    Just remember:  History States are not like layers at all.
    In my opinion that's a lousy instructor who would make you use the Clipboard to illustrate the use of the History Brush.  … but that's just me.

  • How can the adjustment brushes in lightroom 3 be fixed?

    I have no idea how this works.  The adjustment brush in lightroom 3 has stopped working.  Using a mac.  Customer support said if I pay $39 they might be able to fix the problem, but its better to ask on the forums.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?

    A quick guess or two, since you haven't really explained the symptoms.
    Are your Flow and Density sliders set to something reasonable?
    Try hitting the H (for hide) key.
    Is the Size slider set to something large enough?
    I'll only charge you $25.

  • I'm using Lightroom cc, I'm trying to create a develop preset. I'm making changes to one photo that I want to apply to many other photos, one of the changes is to blur the background using the adjustment brush. When I am blurring I am going over the photo

    I'm using Lightroom cc, I'm trying to create a develop preset. I'm making changes to one photo that I want to apply to many other photos, one of the changes is to blur the background using the adjustment brush. When I am blurring I am going over the photo several times, when I go to create the preset the adjustment brush is not an option to check. How do I add the adjustment brush to the develop presets. Thanks Ron.

    The adjustment brush cannot be added to a develop preset.
    If you can replace the adjustment brush with a gradient filter or radial filter, you can add those to a dev preset.
    If a gradient filter or radial filter is not an option for you, you can at least create an adjustment preset to remember your brush settings.

  • The adjustment brush is not working

    When I select the adjustment brush and paint across the image no changes are made. I have tried moving the sliders to the extremities but no effects to the image are made. It is very frustrating

    I have tried moving the sliders to the extremities but no effects to the image are made.
    Check to be sure Density and/or Flow are not set to 0.
    when I click to create a new pin the small circle or pin is not there as expected
    Press H (Hide) key to toggle pin on and off.

    Hmmm, I wonder if that window is hidden or off screen? Have you moved the pic window around to look under it?
    Might try this...
    Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions.
    Then move these files to the Desktop for now...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preview.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preview.bookmarks.plist
    Reboot & test.
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

  • How do you make the colour tone of the adjustment brush in camera raw white?

    I am using Camera Raw (Version7.0.0.308) in CS6. The adjustment brush does not have a slider for the colour tone but jumps from blue to yellow with the +, - keys. How do I set it to white? Currently all my adjustment come out either with a yellow tone or a blue tone.

    Hi,
    I would update to camera raw 7.4 and install any other updates that show when using Help>Updates from within photoshop cs6.
    Then check if you have the same issue.

  • Why do I get artifacts when using the adjustment brush to increase or decrease exposure?

    When using the adjustment brush to darken a background I get  white or light colored artifacts.   When using the brush to lighten the eyes of a person I get brown artifacts that look like freckles in the area of adjustment.  That didn't happen in LR 3.

    Here are the screen shots with the original, with Auto Mask on and without Auto Mask.
    Thanks to C. Frans W  for the suggestion of it being an Auto Mask issue.
    Dorin,  if you have any other comments, I would welcome them.
    If C. Frans W  has additional comments those are welcome also.

    Hi! I have a problem with the adjustment brush some are not there anymore like soften skin, how i can fix that?

    Hi dear,
    it's funny, real funny.
    I think the programmes have diffrent sound system from the normal calls system.
    All you need to do is to turn the sound up from the bottom in the phone side in the time you're making or recieving the call.
    you'll hear the sound.
    I hope that would help.
    All the best

  • Why am I getting Artifacts when I use the Adjustment Brush to Lighten or Darken?

    I get artifacts when I lighten (dark specks) or darken (white specks) when I use the adjustment brush to adjust exposure on my photos.   Any ideas why this is happening?  It would seem to be a big enough bug to get noticed and promptly fixed, unless I am doing something wrong.

    Richard,

  • Has anyone had experience with the new moire slider under the adjustment brush in LR4?

    There's a new moire removal tool under the adjustment brush in LR4. In the near future I expect to have photos that contain moire patterns. Has anyone used this tool yet? I'd like to get an inkling as to how effective it is.

    There is an example of moiré on the Nikon Imaging site for the D800E.
    http://imaging.nikon.com/lineup/dslr/d800/features01.htm
    I was able to reduce the moiré significantly, but not eliminate it with the Lightroom 4 adjustment brush. I haven't found any software solutions that can completely repair moiré. The Lightroom 4 feature seems about as good as any I've tried.
    Here are a few links you might find interesting:
