Photoshop CC Brush Outline Issue (image)

I am having this strange effect when using the brush tool in photoshop cc. Whenever I use the brush tool, the outline of the marks the brush tool makes is much darker than the rest of the color. What could be causing this? Opacity is at 100%, Flow is at 100% and its on normal mode.
I don't recall the brush tool ever behaving like this for me before.
Thanks in advance

Is "Wet Edges" checked in the Brush Panel?
Could you please post a screenshot with the pertinent Panels visible?

  • Bristle brush outline won't realtime render when painting

    Hello.
    I recently upgraded to CS5 and was delighted to get to work with the new fantastic bristle brushes. I really love them...
    Then when I started Photoshop a couple of days ago, they wouldn't work properly; partly because they act kind of twitchy while I move the cursor around, the angle modifier seems over-sensitive or something... but the biggest issue was that as soon as I begin painting, the brush outline goes static and won't adapt after the changes in angle etc, although the actual paint strokes will be affected as they should. This makes it hard to paint, and it wasn't like this before. It's not that the cursor goes to crosshair, I haven't accidentally pressed caps lock or something like that, no, the outline just stops the realtime rendering as soon as the pen tip is pushed.
    This happened just a few days after me updating to Service Pack 1 (for Win7 x64 Ultimate). Could it have anything to do with this?
    This is what I've tried so far:
    *Resetting Photoshop preferences
    *All different OpenGL modes (basic, normal, advanced). My GFX card is nVidia 8800GT 512 MB with the latest driver
    *Of course, I run the latest Wacom driver for Intuos3
    *I've also updated to PS CS5 12.0.3
    So, summarized, I run:
    PS CS5 12.0.3 on Win7 x64 Ultimate SP1
    with latest Wacom driver
    with latest nVidia driver
    on the following hardware:
    Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 2,66GHz
    4GB DDR2 RAM @ 1002 MHz
    GeForce 8800 GT 512 MB
    Thank you very much in advance for any help; I've been googling for 8-12 hours without finding anything helpful, only some remotely similar problems.

    Ah well, it was worth asking.
    I've been running SP1 on Windows 7 x64 for over a month now and I don't see any brush issues such as you have described.  I don't use a tablet, though.  One's thoughts tend to go to whether the tablet driver might not be perfectly compatible with SP1...  Have Wacom said anything about an update?

  • Photoshop CC 2014 font issues

    I'm Not entirely sure why this is happening, or what's causing it, but photoshop cc 2014 is causing some serious issues with fonts on my documents. Up until this point my company has used Extensis Suitcase Fusion to activate fonts used throughout our project docs. The 2014 typekit update and addition is somehow conflicting with either photoshop or suitcase and in return setting a large portion of my fonts to it's default or regular weight. It seems like while suitcase is auto activating the necessary fonts, typekit is reading each of those weights as their own individual fonts. This might seem difficult to understand but in any case i would just like to know if there is a way to completely deactivate typekit and or remove it's involvement in my project documents, at this point it is resetting dozens of fonts on some very important project files. I'd much rather not be limited to just the fonts that adobe or typekit prefers.

    I still don’t have a clue…
    So far we’re the only 2 reporting this

  • Why is using Photoshop CS6 as the touchup image editor for Acrobat still a complete failure?

    Image objects in pdfs are losing their positional and other parameters when saved after editing with Photoshop CS6(ONLY).  The problem was acknowledged on the Photoshop forum three months ago, but they said it was up to the Acrobat folks to fix it.  When using most previous versions of Photoshop (CS2-CS5 all tested) as the touchup image editor, Acrobat was able to place the image right back into it's previous position in the pdf and it could  do this without releasing whatever path was used to crop or mask the image (basically it worked great).  However, using Photoshop CS6 as the touchup image editor is still a complete failure.  Any idea when or if this will be fixed?
    Thanks

    The Photoshop 13.0.1 Update fixes this issue.  Excellent.

  • Healing Brush Outline

    Just a quick question.  Am currently using Photoshop 7, and don't recall if it's possible to change the color of the healing brush outline.  When I use the healing brush, the outline of the brush size is a light blue color.  I'd be able to see it much better if it were, say, bright red or lime green.  Is it possible to change the color of the outline?  Changing the cursor to precise, etc, doesn't help, as it's still that annoyingly difficult to see light blue color.  Suggestions?

    There is no way to alter the color of the cursor on a PC. It will change a bit, depending on the background over which it's used, but all that you can directly affect is the "look" of how the cursor displays.
    If you are loosing it, you can hit Ctrl to help locate it, or hit the Spacebar and look for the "hand."
    Good luck,

    Same here. I've never had trouble with this function before.
    It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
    I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1  Lightroom is version 5.7  Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
    FWIW, I also can't automate>Photomerge ... . Makes me think Photoshop, not Lightroom, is all wacky. I tried dumping PS preferences

  • Is there a way to use Photoshop's brush in Flash ?

    Hello. I've always said that drawing with my Bamboo Create & Touch was good but wasn't the same as drawing in the real life. In fact, this brings me a lot of problems, because even if it's good, is not good enough for me. That happens to me when i use Flash, but when i use Photoshop, it's much better ! It's almost like real life. Isn't there a way to, export the Photoshop's brush tool information/setting/preference (something like those things) into Flash ?

    No. But you can create graphics completely in Photoshop and import them into Flash. You can also very easily right-click on a bitmap in your library and "Edit with Photoshop". Whatever you do, if you save it, will auto-update in Flash.
    Flash is not designed for creating elaborate bitmap graphics. It's better at vector but for either of those you really should just use the tool that's designed for it. Flash is typically what is used to take finished media and assemble it into an animation or application.

  • In photoshop CS5, Brush tool doesn't work on an adjustment layer

    In photoshop CS5, Brush tool doesn't work on an adjustment layer

    I Created an adjustment (Curves) layer and did the curves adjustment.  Then I did an Edit Fill (Normal Mode, 100% Opacity and Use: Black).
    I then try to use the brush tool, but it doesn't work.  I've done this hundreds of times before and suddenly it's not working.  Rebooted the system, but that didn't help.
    I know how to do a screen shot, but it doesn't paste onto this screen.  How do I get that to you?
    thanks for your help

    Attached is screen shot. What happens is I go to File/Automate/Merge to HDR Pro, then select my 3 images, which are flattened psd files (I have tried tifs and jogs too), hit OK, it processes them, but instead of the image appearing, I get this black image.

    Photos in iPhoto album are only a hash-marked outline the image only shows when scrolling how can I see the image and open the photo?

    Make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Need help with Photoshop CS5.5 Printing issues with Epson R2880

    Hi,
    I'm experiencing problems printing on photoshop, I already selected center image but the epson printer always print to the upper left hand corner of
    the page. And the image is always cropped in a weird way, so eveytime I print the image is not a whole. I made sure I selected the right paper size too.
    It used to print okay, this happened a while ago but I don't know how it got fixed evetually, I think was after a complete restore of my OS.
    I am sure its nothing to do with the Epson driver, becuas after I export the file from photoshop to PDF it prints fine with either preview or adove acrobat.
    Has anyone else experienced such problem?
    Thank you!
    Shao

    Nope, not using the presets, i still cant figure out why it suddenly cant print right!
    btw, thnks for the link, its very useful!!
