c_moon Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Hi. If I select a tool and then use the space bar to get the hand cursor icon to move the photo about, when I release the space bar the hand stays showing instead of immediately reverting back to the original tool icon. That feels odd. Often, the hand will change to the tool if I move the mouse, which isn't ideal - or click which I may not want to do as that activates the tool. However, in some cases the hand remains there (again unless I click or) unless I move it to the tool bar and back again (without clicking, doesn't need to be the same tool). This has happened with the floodfill tool, selection brush and colour picker - I haven't tried many other tools. Thanks.

Staff Chris B Posted June 27, 2019 Staff Share Posted June 27, 2019 Hi Nigel, I can reproduce this easily. It is a bit odd and misleading too. I'll ask the developers to look into it.

Arceom Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 I have the same problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLE-France Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 Same problem here, and for me it's happening with nearly all the tools (Zoom, Clone, Paint brush, Selection brush, Eraser, etc.) and nearly all Live Filters (Clarity, High Pass, Denoise, Lens Distortion, etc.). This problem appeared with the 1.7 update (maybe the 1.7.1?); before that update it wasn't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Chris B Posted October 21, 2019 Staff Share Posted October 21, 2019 The bug report hasn't had any feedback yet. I will happily give it a nudge as we do seem to be getting a few reports about it still. I'm sorry.

Zane Vali Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I have the same problem, and I am running the latest version, 2022. The hand tool came up when opening a new pixel layer and tried to use the inpainting tool. The hand won't go away and there is nothing I can do!
