IT IS 2015 already and your post still saves people from Photoshop CS6 DROWNING :-)))
Thanks a lot. -

January 9, 2015 at 9:40 pmUsing Painter 15 and my pens stopped working. Read this post, reset the tool (have to figure that is why they put it there just to cover “unforeseen” errors) and back to work. Thanks.

May 5, 2015 at 1:20 pmI think my Photoshop is different from your version. I don’t see the two “tool” options that you suggested to gain access to erasing again. By the way, I did finally notice that my eraser works until I decide to move anything or do anything else with the page, so I’ve learned to try and erase everything that I think I will need to before I do anything else. Unfortunately, there’s one page that has been permanently changed, rather than layered, and I don’t know how to enable the eraser. Thank you for your time and help!
