Issue with Paint Brush Opacity


Recommended Posts

I tried to paint out some lettering this morning. The Opacity and Flow were at 100% yet the paint went on as if the opacity was set very low. I reset the brush although I had never changed any of it's settings (just to be thorough)

I'm either missing something and this is user error or we have a bug

Scteencast attached

Try setting blend mode to normal.

Turn off wet edges

It was set to normal and I had not set wet edges

But

The issue is gone in the latest bet so this one can close

Thanks for the feedback!!!!

Experienced the same phenomenon the other day. All 100 %, wet edges, Normal blend mode - but still the brush refused to fill correctly, needed about 30 strokes to do it's job, with the background color still coming through.
Unfortunately, this happened with the latest beta. :)

My quick test with the current beta was ok but thanks for verifying there is a problem buried in there. I was painting out something on a JPG with no other adjustments

I am sorry you are having the issue but I will test it out on several more graphics to see if the issue can be pin pointed

The video you attached shows blend mode was set to Average and wet edges was on

Hmmm I never set that to average yet I see what you mean. Let me test that out as I missed that
