CS5 Help Please

Hi,

Something is wrong with my brushes in CS5. If I select a brush, the stamp tool or even the dodge tool, all I get on screen is a cross hair cursor not the normal round shape - even when I increase the brush size to maximum. Anyone have any ideas how to get this back to normal?

Any help appreciated.

No worries, the only reason I know is that I spent 4 hours one day trying to figure out the exact same thing!!

So that's what causes that problem?

LOL, yep!! if you accidentally hit the Caps Lock key or have it previously on when you open photoshop and you have the crosshairs instead of your normal brushes. Simple fix, but you have to remember it.

Remember what?

I often thought the crosshairs result when your memory is low?

As the man says, also, you can alter various options under the preferences for this!!!

You cannot alter this in the prefs AFAIK… It's default PS behavious, and has been forever.
