Some other problems fixed in 24.40b16 added to Large List of Bugfixes 2019-2024:
  • Request/Idea: "Real Brush" cursor preview that will instantly preview original brush with soft edges, as well as raster brush shape and color.
  • Request/Idea: List view mode for Color Info panel
  • Some Photoshop brushes painting incorrectly.
  • Program crash if Batch Converting folder with PLD and apply some types of actions.
  • Measurement Tool -> Calc Length don't works. Seems like value is hidden under the UI buttons.
  • Visual bug if apply to vector object Special Emboss layer style with "Height of 0 is Transparent" enabled.
There are some bugs and crashes due new "Painting tools with preview" option.

Info in List Mode looks great, but maybe it is possible somehow show fifth field only if use CMYK mode? That empty field on the right is so waste of space and at some panel sizes number 100.00 became cropped.

Just now discovered that the brush preview also works when working on a layer mask!!!

That's a brilliant small workflow enhancement. Thanks!

I see a small problem in logic in "Painting Tools with Preview" option.
For Brush, Pencil and other normal painting tools it seems like very useful option, so user can set in preferences Outline to "None" and just paint.
But for for retouching tools like Remove Brush or Finger Brush, Outline Preferences should be always enabled, because there is no any real life preview for this sort of brush. Enable and disable this setting in Preferences every time is too slow and uncomfortable.

So i guess "Painting Tools with Preview" and "Outline" option should be somehow restricted for some special tools.

Another possible improvements:
Outline/Preview menu global toggle and hotkey. (Toggle make sense because it feels like rather useless to have both Outline and Preview enabled.)
on/off checkbox for each individual brush tool in Tool Settings. (Probably too complex because require changes in each brush tool panel)
Toggles in Brush Editor instead of Global Preferences. (Not sure if this is logical idea, but this allow quicker access)

What if use Caps Lock as toggle between Outline/Preview modes?

Agreed with all you wrote, @shijan.

The caps lock key could be a good solution. But the option should also be exposed in the tool settings panel.

While I really like the preview while drawing masks, I noticed I don't always want that.

Also i noticed that "Center" cursor works very well in pair with "Painting Tools with Preview". So "Center" cursor setting probably should be independent from global Outline/Preview Toggle (If that toggle will be available in future)

Instead of simple Caps Lock toggle, it also could be independent menu buttons to turn on/off brush overlays (similar to Alignment helpers and other overlays). In this case they could work globally for all brushes. This feels like the most flexible solution because user could add those buttons to global toolbar and also set hotkeys.
On/Off Brush Center
On/Off Brush Outline
On/Off Brush Preview

Detailed settings for Center and Outline may remain in Preferences. Just without "None" item there.

Here are how icons may look:

This new cursor function to seeing a real time preview is great, along with the previous new way to store brushes, is really exciting for me.

In my case (windows10), the program crashes:
when I turn capslock on
when I set: Options > painting cursor > outline > "none"

Also, in Liquify: twirl, pucker and bloat are acting weird when using a wacom pen...

I have a brush bug. When I open this file, select the bottom layer, and switch to the brush, moving the cursor through the letter in the middle will erase it. Zoom in or out, and the image is restored.

I've sent the PLD file to support@pl32.com.

By the way, tools like Remove Brush, Healing Brush and Red Eye actually can use "Painting Tools with Preview". They can use their default semi-transparent green color as brush preview.

This should be fixed in the next version.

Here on macOS, If I hold down the mouse button and don't move the mouse, the tool only works intermittently. Is this what you mean by "weird"?

well, that's correct, but exploring the software I found and checked "Options > Periphery > Graphic Tablet > Use WinTab Driver" so now It works differently, not "weird = intermittent". Seeing that, I'll be checking if other different actings on the software would take place (maybe touch sensibility).

Keine Ahnung. Ich denke YouTube war der Meinung, dass meine Stimme zu bayerisch ist und hat das per KI übersetzt.
Ich wurde aber nicht darüber informiert.
