Opacity fade as brush size enlarges...how ?

Hi,
Photoshop CS5.1
I need my brush getting larger and fainter, or failing that, getting smaller and starting at 0 and ending at 100% opacity.
I can see how to make opacity fade with distance , brush transfer Flow jitter 0 control fade 25% minimum 10% but where is the control to make the brush diameter larger ?
I am with mouse by the way.

The easiest thing to start with is to reset the Eraser Tool.
Right click on the Eraser icon in the tool options bar and then click on Reset Tool.

    Eraser tool in Photoshop CS4 acts as if it is transparent when on brush or pencil mode. Block acts like its not transparent at all but there are no options for opacity, flow or brush size. Whats wrong and how to I make the brush and pencil eraser erase completely without having to go over it multiple times?
    It started randomly about two weeks ago and I thought it was a glitch that would just go away. But now I am getting sick of using only the block eraser on one size. Help?

  • How can I set the CS5 to Intuos Pro Large for changing brush size and opacity and others?

    How can I set together  to  my PS5 or Ps6 in order to change brush size and opacity at the Intuos Pro Large?

    The MTU setting on the interface is the layer 3 packet size. In this case, the MTU is set to 1500, but the largest frame size transmitted on the interface (including layer 2 headers) is 1516. It sounds like you are experiencing another problem at the LES.

  • How do you increase the Brush Size past 50 on the Stroke Effect?

    Hey Everyone,
    I created a photo in Photoshop and I imported it to AE, and I've been trying to create a Spray Paint effect by using the Stroke effect and Reveal Original Image to look look like as if I'm spray painting the the picture on the wall. All is going well until I get to the brush size, and it only goes up to 50. Does anyone know how to increase it past 50? 50 is to small, it won't cover what I want it to cover for the stoke. I can't seem to figure out a way to get it higher than 50, and I don't know any other way to create the effect I'm trying to go for. Anyone know how to either get past this or know a different way to get make it look like I'm spray painting the picture on the wall? Any help at all would be great.
    Thanks in advance!

    The After Effects CC (12.2) update increases the maximum size of the brush for the Write-on effect and Stroke effect to 200 pixels (from the previous maximum of 50 pixels).

  • How to turn off brush size dialog when holdng stylus on tablet.

    Yesterday I signed up to try the latest version of Photoshop (CC) from previously working in CS6.
    There is a new behavior that when I hold down my stylus for more than a half-second or so on my tablet, a swirling circle icon appears and then a floating brush size dialog pops up.
    I can't stand this, and want to turn it off or at least edit the settings, but I can't find anything in preferences about it.
    PS CS6 does not have this behavior with the same tablet, so I think it has to do with Photoshop.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks for your reply. Yep, it's engaged. That button is very important to me. lol
    This definitely seems like a Photoshop CC feature, not a tablet issue.
    Here is a screenshot of what I mean:
    That white circle in the upper left corner of the box comes up and "loads" the dialog when I press down on the tablet with my stylus. I just updated my tablet drivers last week.
    This does not happen in Photoshop CS6, which I still have installed and have been using prior to this trial of CC.
    Basically, I would at least like to increase the delay time of how long it takes for me to hold down my stylus before this behavior happens, if not disable it altogether. I don't have  the need for this feature and it gets in my way constantly.

  • How do I simply fade a brush stroke in CS6?

    All I want to do it make a brush stroke fade off at different fade lengths. I've been looking online and it seems it's done in "Other Dynamics" in the Brushes menu, however there is not "Other Dynamics" in my Brushes menu! Aaarghh! Of all the years using Photoshop, this was never an issue. I'm not sure why Adobe made it sooo complicated.

    To get the opacity of the brush to fade in and out within a single stroke you need a tablet with pressure sensitivity. 
    What about brush flow, it gets more opacity as you swing it?

  • How can I get my brush size to appear in Photoshop CC?

    I just upgraded to Photoshop CC and I cannot see my brush size, especially when I make the brush size larger.  A small circle appears when the brush is very small, but at larger sizes it disappears such that I have to guess at my brush size, which does not work when using the healing tool or brush tool.  I especially have problems when I zoom into the photo at 100% or more.  I can only see a crosshair, but I would like to get the circle size back.  I have tried several things, which have not worked, including making sure the caps lock is off and changing my preferences->cursors->normal brush tip.  Any suggestions???  Thanks.

  • Using the Brush tool.  It prints 1/3 the size as the brush views.  How do I get the two to match.

    For example, if I have a square brush, it will show as 3x3 but stamp as 1x1. All brushes are the same.  A simple round brush will be larger than it stamps as well.   I have tried using it on documents at 300. 200. and 72 dpi.  Always the same.  I changed the Brush Size in Preferences>cursers to Full Size Brush Tip.  restarted and still the same.
    What else can I do?  Thank you, Rayleen

  • How to change local adjustment brush size when unselecting ?

    Perhaps a stupid beginners question but i cannot seem to find this one..
    Using the local adjustment brush i can change the size of the brush using the [ and ] brackets
    However.. when i make a small error and want to erase brushed-area by using the ALT key then the brush size seems to be fixed to one size ???

    Erwin,
    As they say, there are lots of ways to skin a cat.
    Erase mode uses a different setting for the brush size. You can adjust it, but not with the brackets while the Alt key is held down.With the Alt held down, you can still move the size slider in the brush panel with the mouse.
    I can't speak for Macs, but on Windows, my scroll wheel works to change the size of the brush, whether the alt key is pressed or not.
    If that won't work for you, you can click on the "Erase" text button in the brush panel and then use the bracket keys to change sizes. You'll be in erase mode even without holding down the Alt key. In fact, in that mode, holding the Alt key puts you back in "paint" mode.

  • How to adjust Brush size?

    I can't find a Brush size that is smaller than any of the provided brush sizes.
    Using the Pencil tool isn't possible as I need the Brush's pressure options (I work with a tablet).
    What can I do?
    Thanks.

    scale your stage to suit your needs.  when you want a small brush, scale up the stage.  when that's not needed, return the stage to 100%.
    i would think you would only use a small brush for minute detail work.  scale up the stage when working on those details.
    normally, your stage will be at 100%.  use the magnifying lens to drag a magnifying rectangle around regions where details are needed.
    your work-flow should not be impedded by the need to do detail work.

  • How do I change the brush size?

  • Brush size no longer showing up on cursor

    Hi everyone. I use my brushes a lot, but I've just lost all ability to see, on screen, in real time, the outline of my brush; all I get is a cross, no matter how big or small my brush is. The same goes for my clone stamp tool, as well as my dodge and burn tools. PS is essentially useless to me like this because I cannot see the edge of where I am painting until afterward, when I see the effect. I cannot seem to fix it in preferences, and I have no idea how this happened. Can someone PLEASE help????? Thanks, Jeff

    Thanks for the prompt reply. The problem is resolved, for now, anyway. It appears to have been something to do with my cursor preferences, just as we suspected. The curious thing is that I didn't knowingly make any adjustments to my cursor preferences until AFTER this problem appeared. After it appeared, I checked my preferences, and they looked correct. Nonetheless, out of desperation, I tried to change my cursor preferences anyway, but nothing I did seemed to have any effect. After I posted the question, I shut down PS, re-entered PS and noticed that my cursors had changed. They were still wrong, but at least they had changed. I set my preferences back to the correct setting, and the problem went away.
    When I paint, I adjust brush sizes and opacity and toggle between foreground and background using keystrokes, instead of the mouse, so is it possible that I mistakenly changed my cursor preferences without even knowing it???? I didn't even think about or look at caps-lock. What would that do?
    Anyway, it's sorted for now, which is a huge relief, but I do wish I knew what caused it in the first place, so that I could be sure that it won't happen again. Thanks again.
