Changing Brush Attributes Via Click&Drag With Modifier Keys Broken in Catalina In All Latest Betas 1736

[markw]

Looks like this is totally broken now for me on Catalina with the latest betas😧

In current retail v2 apps and previous betas with pixel brushes;
Control+Option+Click&Drag Left/Right = Brush Size.
Control+Option+Click&Drag Up/Down = Hardness.
And with Vector brushes: Control+Option+Click&Drag Left/Right = Brush Size.

Now in all beta 1736;
Shift+Control+Option+Click&Drag Left/Right = Brush Size. (the Shift key is now need too??)
Control+Option+Click&Drag Up/Down = Hardness. (unchanged and same as before)
And with Vector brushes: Control+Option+Click&Drag Left/Right = Brush Size. This still works, however immediately afterwards the brush outline and crosshairs disappear 90%+ of the time and you have to click the canvas again to get them back.

@Serif Info Bot
Thanks for fixing the main problem in the new 1742 beta apps😃
Just one little irritating bug left when using Vector brushes: Control+Option+Click&Drag Left/Right = Brush Size. As mentioned in my first post this works, however immediately after resizing a Vector brush, the brush outline and crosshairs disappear and you have to do an extra Left click on the canvas to get them back again so you can see where your brush head is!

I'm afraid that issue is not yet fixed.
