PSE 10 Brush Issue

I recently upgraded from PSE 7 to 10. While trying to use the soft brush, it acts as though its an airbrush, with too much spacial painting... is there a setting that needs to be changed? I've never had this issue in PSE 7.

Ensure your brush settings are like this:

Roto Brush issue in CS5 Premiere Pro

I am a new CS5 user with a week of learning under my belt. (My previous experience was splicing 8mm film together when making films as a kid.) I am hoping someone can advise on an issue I am encountering in CS5 Premiere Pro? (I realize Roto Brush is a tool in After Effects, but I am having trouble with the output of the Roto Brush tool in Premiere Pro.)
I opened a .VOB file (taken from a DVD) in Premiere Pro (first I changed the extension to .MPG). It opened as 720 x 480 at 23.976 fps. No problems scrubbing through and using the Razor tool. I selected one of the small razored subsections I made from the video, and opened it in After Effects using the Premiere Pro menu selection: File>Adobe Dynamic Link>Replace With After Effects Composition. No problem opening in After Effects. I learned the Roto Brush tool and it also worked great as I successfully masked out a moving figure - looks great. But ...
When I return to Premiere Pro, the After Effect composition does not display the same as it did in After Effects. Specifically there appears to be some kind of mask/motion mismatch, and so a bluish border will appear on some frames around the figure as it moves. In After Effects the rotoscope is perfect, but in Premiere it is like a poorly done rotoscope with the borders of the figure messed up. I am hoping the comparison images below will make this clear. The image on the left shows the perfectly rotoscoped figure in After Effects, and on the right the same frame but in Premiere Pro. Note how the image in Premiere Pro has a messed up border around the figure?
Has anyone experienced this or know why it is occuring? I can think of some possible work-arounds that could be tried, but the dynamic link method is nice and fast. So before I start rendering and saving and reopening files in a work-around attempt, I am wondering first what could be causing this issue. Thanks for any ideas.

Hi,
Just to let you know that you've posted in the Audition (audio) forum and may do better posting over in the Premier Pro forums.
However, as one who works in both video and audio, I'd just comment that your choice of export format is affected big time by what you want to do with your edit. Things like Youtube, DVD, Bluray, etc. all have their own formats that you have to adhere to. Within those formats you often have choices you can make to balance bandwidth vs. quality but these only come into play once you've decided where your project has to end up.

LR 2.5 CR 5.5 Saturation Brush Issue - Won't Open in CS4

Hi,
I've updated LR and CS4 to Camera Raw 5.5. I've noticed on images (raw CR2) that when I apply saturation brush changes in LR (e.g -100%) and then try to open that image for editing in CS4 it just doesn't open!
Anyone else getting this too?
Thanks.

Are you in 64 bit mode???
I experienced the same issue. Random images would not open in CS4 after making local edits (not just SAT brush). Image would open in NIK or other external editors without a problem. Also, if I reimported the same image file, I could edit in CS4 as long as I did not make local edits.
Finally, the problem was solved when I switched LR back to 32 bit mode.
I am running CR 5.5 with the latest Snow Lep version. I suspect this is another 64 bit issue with Adobe/Apple that they will hopefully fix soon.
Regards,
Kurt

Spot healing brush issues

When the spot healing bursh is activated the cursor changes erratically from a pointer to the spot brush and does not seem to work. I am on a iMac 64bit machine with OS 10.7.2. Anyone else having this issue? hjz62

I've also seen this with Lion and LR3.5. If you resize the circle with the mouse wheel, drag on the magic mouse, it seems to sort itself out.
It is very frustrating and I've tried deleting the cache and several other things.
However it is eratic and does not always happen, so very frustrating
LR4 seems to be clear of this, so maybe its been fixed for the next iteration of LR

Spot healing brush issues in photoshop elements 11

I am new to photoshop elements 11. I am trying to use the spot healing brush. I select "content aware,' "sample all layers," and a brush, but I only get the cross hairs of the cursor, and not the black circle. My cursor preferences are currently at the default. I get a black line when I press the mouse key, but nothing changes in the photo. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.
Sue

I found that I had some problematic brush settings. I've developed this checklist for when I have similar issues:
o Try changing the px on the brush slider in thespot healing tool
o Go to the BRUSH tool (B), change opacity asneeded (probably 100%), go to the brush settings drop down and change thehardness (again probably to 100%)
o Check that CAPS LOCK is NOT on
o Go to the center icon (lower right by the ?),drop down, then select "reset all Tools," then restart the photoeditor
o Then try to reset the editor preferences: Quitthe editor, restart it from the welcome screen while holding downctrlshiftalt, then say "yes" to delete the settings file
You don't have to do all of these things. They are just things to check when you have brush problems. So now I'm working OK. I hope that this works for you.

Downloading and installing PSE 11 issues

I downloaded the files from your site and have them in one file on my pc. However, it will not let me open them, saying something is missing. I have downloaded and retried several times. Please advise as to what I need to do.

Hi,
I'm having the same issue. And find this whole experience and support method very frustrating.
1. Instructions are instructions but poorly designed process is no good. You are asking us to do things that are not logical, ie, click on the download of free PSE 12 and then cancel to activate a cookie, then install. This is rubbish. If you are relying on cookies or another session based method offer it in a simple to use way.
2. Loads of people are having the same issue yet you basically tell them all to go read a blog. This is not customer service or any level of support you would expect from a retailer of your scale charging the prices you charge.
3. After following all the options, trialling a download about 5 - 6 times. With all the possible alternatives I still have an issue.
I know as a Moderator there is little that you can do about all of the above, but if you can provide this feedback to an Adobe rep please do so.
As a suggestion of what you could do. Why don't you simply place a download link on the page where we have the product serial. Have a session based cookie function there and then a single installer file package Instead of having information scattered across a bunch of pages, links and blogs.

Brush Issues w/Mac Mt. Lion retina display

I have contacted Adobe about issues with Photoshop brushes recently. My issue is that the brush size is smaller than the circle that represents the brush. In other words, when I hoover over the area that I want to paint or erase with the circle and then click, the painted or erased area is smaller that the circle. It's really frustrating when fine tuning an image, you never know how close you are to what you want to correct. This is only visible when you zoom in quit a bit. I worked with an Adobe tech for over an hour and he could not simulate the problem. Then he finally asked if I was using a retina display, (he was not). Yes... Oh, we have not worked on retina display issues yet. Is this true or was he just trying to ditch me?

Hi. Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum.

Painting Brush Issue

Ok I've been painting an image in Cs4 for some time but I took a break from it for a few weeks and I just came back to it, The issue I'm having is the way my brush presets are acting towards my brushes. I was using a Charcoal Brush which when messing with the presets works similar to a real paint brush in terms of the way the bristles show. This is sort of hard to explain but I'll try. My brush when I was using it, had like a dry brush effect; you could the see individual bristles depending on how much I messed with the brush shape dynamics, it could be thick like a loaded brush or it could be thin like a dry brush whatever. Now though when I try and recreate the brush when I go to the shape dynamics its not acting the way it was before. The brush wont thin out it takes on a splatter effect when I move the scattering slider and size jitter that never happened before and I cant get it to stop. Before the way those sliders would effect the brush is it would spread out the bristles now they just add a splatter on them and I cant change it.
^^^^^ That image is the brush before I mess with the presets. Normally I'd spread out the bristles but when I try I get the effect on the image below.
I know this is a bad explanation but I really cant figure out what I'm doing wrong I've reset the brushes I don't know how many times same with the presets I've messed with the opacity and flow but nothing is working. I wonder is there anyone who has an Idea of how I can possibly fix this? It's a problem because I need that effect from the brush in order to match the rest of the painting, Any help or advice would be appreciated, and again sorry for the bad explanation.

Yea I've tried both Size Jitter adds a splatter on it so I already have it at 0 and Pen Pressure just rounds out the edges which I don't mind but neither really have to do with the effect from before. I've tried to mimic the way I had the brush before going in and erasing some. The way it's working now is the top stroke and the way I had it is the bottom. Before the strokes where more spaced out, result of messing with the presets now if I mess with the they add a splatter to them.

Adjustment Brush issue over Windows 7

I’m using Windows 7 and Lightroom 2.5 and I’m having some issues with the “Adjustment brush”.
The brush cursor is not well drawn.
I get like “half circle and half plus”.
Or, I get multiple cursors: like 3 or 4.
The tool works ok, but the cursor is terrible.
Also, this issue only happens at some brush and feather size. In the huge and in the smallest ones doesn't happens.
Any ideas?
BTW, also happened with the 2.4 version.

The most likely cause is a video card driver issue. For example, Lightroom and the nVidia Desktop nView control panel don't play well together. If using an nVidia card it might be worth changing the settings from Quality to Performance or vice versa (can'\t recall which). Also check that you have the most up to date video card driver.

Aperture Graphics and Brushes issue

I've been having a lot of trouble with (what seems like) my graphics using aperture 3.2.1.
Firstly, when applying brushes and zoomed, my graphics go crazy with horizontal and vertical lines. (See screenshot):
Secondly, when resizing a brush, the brush size jumps from small to very big with no middle size, even though the slider is moving. It's like the data for those sizes is missing somehow.
1-I've done all troubleshooting steps including rebuilding my library
2-I tested my library in a different user (same issue)
3-I exported a few and tried it on a different mac (it works fine!)
4-I uninstalled and reinstalled aperture completely (still no dice)
I'm also wondering if this could be a hardware issue with my graphics card (although I doubt it because the graphics only go crazy INSIDE the aperture window)
I'm going to try to do a clean install of my OS but I'm wondering if other people have had this issue. Any suggestions?

Same thing here. It only happens when using brushes while zoomed in. Funny thing is it just started doing it out of the blue about 3 days ago .. no new software install, no new updates and I work completely off external drives so it's not like I've had any major changes. It's rather annoying though

Brush issues in PSE3

Can someone please help me? I don't know what happened but I have been unable to change my brush mode option to anything but normal. I don't even get a drop down menu anymore. I have no idea if I pressed something wrong and locked it in, so to speak, but I really need to change the mode! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Reset the brush tool. There should be an arrow or icon (depends on version of PSE) at top, left on the tool's option bar.
If that does not fix it, you may have to reset preferences.

I'm sorry, but I was getting a headache half way through your list, but these file locations will tell you where to put your brushes. (That sounds a bit rude, but is not intended to be)

Otherwise, can you tell us what platform and OS version you are using?
