: Photoshop tablet issue: Fade in Brush Presets doesn't stay selected I'm using Photoshop CS6. I discovered recently the Fade preset for brushes and wanted to try it out. So I select Fade in

@Cofer715

For those still dealing with this issue, I realised I had 'Tablet Pressure sensitivity' selected in Photoshop Menu .. (the icon that looks like a pen aiming a bullseye on a dart board) When this is selected, it overrides the settings in the brush menu. I deselected that and it works as normal again! Hope this helps xx

Original Comment:

Plugging in the tablet doesn't really mean anything, there's still a driver installed. Wacom's latest Mac drivers have had issues, if you're on a Mac. I can't reproduce your problems, but I've got an Intuos 5 so the driver is different.



Since posting this Wacom has released a new driver (6.3.6w) which seems to operate much better for me on my systems.



To correct the issue, set the brush dynamics how you want them (set to Fade rather then Pen pressure) and then save a brush preset.

Or, click where it reads "Brush Tip Shape" to change the shape of the brush rather than clicking presets.

Or, click the little Lock icon next to the Transfer item in the Brush Panel.
