mrs68tm Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Hi all, On the 8th December 2021 I found out that I cannot use any type of brushes on mask layers. Before this I had no problem in using the brushes on the mask layers. I made a Repair of the program, the issue is still present. Any tips? Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 Possibly you have the Protect Alpha box checked on the Brush Tool's Context Toolbar? Note that it's on the extreme right end of the Context Toolbar, and may be hidden depending on your monitor and screen size. If so, click the double-arrow icon to expose it, and make sure it's unchecked if you want to paint on a mask.
