Excellent demonstration of the new brush. I saw another tutorial; it left me confused. You were very clean and now I understand how to use this new tool. Thanks Dave!

[dbroeman]

Thanks Dave as always! Thanks to you, I cannot even use another editor and I think I have them all. Between the TK9 panels, PS and your instructional videos, you have completely changed my editing universe. Thank you.

I have been watching videos the last couple days on the adjustment brush. You have tucked more tips and keystroke shortcuts than anywhere else and they’re all very helpful! Thank you very much for this very informative video.

Finally someone approached the problem of the new brush professionally and objectively. It was a very informative film and gave a broader perspective on the new tool. Thank you for this very informative lesson and greetings from Poland from the city of "Fortress Przemyśl". Ps. I am looking forward to more films from you

Decided to play around with tool after watching the tutorial before commenting. Like you, I was surprised that you could not fill in a shape when using the Shift key to create straight lines. What I found the most useful, so far, was the ability to see the selection color highlighted using the Selection Brush from selections created by other tools. Much better than playing around using marching ants to see what needs to be added or subtracted from a selection.

Thanks Dave for explaining this useful tool.

[dktraveller]

Thanks Dave, great walk thru. On chaging the opacity and size of the brush you do not need to hold Control. Just Alt and drag with the RIGHT mouse button (at least with Windows). Keep 'em coming.

[ericpecquerie]

Extremely clear. Thank you. Perfect tutorial as usual

[williamcollins]

So many possibilities...thank you for the video...Spot on...

[stevepeacock-photography]

I have played with PS selection brush for a few days and prefer the TKselection brush. The only thing I would like is to have the selection overlay opacity and the selection opacity independent. So with a 100% opacity I can still see through and what is selected

How is it different than using Quick Mask? Aside from how you access the tool, they do the same thing.

[giovanniabbenante]

Dave, why in the tutorial does your brush appear with two concentric circles and the outer one is green? I would like to do it too. I always follow you especially on Fridays. You are very good.

Great video - loved your demonstration of the new tool.
My problem has been that since the update that added this tool my remove tool is no longer working properly. About 50 or 60% of the time now the result is either a dark grey or a burnt orange color, as though it were sampling something else, even though there are no other layers. Also, my masking in ACR stopped working properly. About 80% of the time it cannot find people or objects, even in simple portraits. Adobe support provided a link to upload another version of ACR, but it only slightly improved performance, not solved it.
Any ideas?

[MalinLinneaCronholm]

I wish tutorials would start with: what problems does this solve for me? What can I do with this tool? Now I have to watch almost the whole tutorial first to find out it's even what I need help with....

[hashira]

Is it worth to start learning photoshop or other adobe apps in 2024 now that Ai is in power?

[yannmaenden]

On my PC I have to hold Ctrl+Alt and drag with the *** right *** mouse button.

[joshuaziff]

Thanks, Dave. How does a reduced opacity selection or one with a varied opacity selection function when using adjustment layers or generative fill?

[ElnaGeringer]

Hi Dave, please help me cannot find the new [Selection Brush Tool] I am on PS 25.11.0 and Beta 25.12. Thanks

[jensbronton]

its not much different than old quick mask mode.

[jackmlynek]

So far you've spent over 5 minutes telling me nothing bout what this tool does. I have no idea why I should waste any more time with you.
