  • CC 2017 Paint on Alpha problem

    Hello everyone!

    So, CC 2017 installed, started trying out some things (Yes, older versions still there just in case…) and came up with this nasty – what seems to be – bug:

    Yesterday I was working with the Paint on Alpha and all was A-OK, working just fine. Was the last thing I did yesterday, and this morning was the first thing I did also. Bummer, doesn’t work anymore. Tried a new project also, nothing. I paint over the open layer and it won’t “erase” (paint alpha). Has anyone have this issue yet? Any ideas, maybe?

    Thanks!!
    Erik

    EDIT: I just saw that the painting occurs, but at a veeeeeery small brushstroke, no matter what brush I have selected. And I can’t manage to find where I can set brush size and softness, gee whiz! It’s just… gone! Maybe moved? Makes no sense….

    EDIT 2: Went back to CC 2015.3 and…. WHAM! Problem happens there too! What the… As Luke would say: “Noooooooooooooo…..!” Now I’m doomed.

    EDIT 3: Ok, sorry guys, terribly sorry! MY BAD! I got it now… this crazy panel setup that came with CC 2017 and somehow made it’s way to 2015.3 got me… I had to extend the window to see the options for the brush and the PRESSURE setting was active (I use a tablet). I have to rearrange everything in order to see thing as I used to… Bah, sorry again! 😉
