Possibe Spot Healing brush bug

May 23, 2012 3:30 PM

I'm on Win 7, 64 bit, and CS6 (released).  I've got the Spot Healing brush active and I Shift + Right-click to bring up the Blending options.  I cannot change to Luminosity.  It will change in the drop down box on the tool bar however.  When I first noticed, it was Lighten that it wouldn't change to.  I've rebooted the PC a couple of times and now it seems to be the Luminosity mode.

 

Any help or thoughts?

 

Dennis

    Hi Dennis

     

    All I can tell you is that I am getting all the options here, and I tried it with three different images, and on background and copied layers, so probably not a bug.

    I get all the options, if I'm on one of the other blend modes and I click on Luminosity it doesn't change it up in the drop down box on the tool bar.  I'll do some more checking.

     

    Thanks for checking.

    On second thought if you mean with the spot healing brush selected, your shift right clicking in the document area to bring up the list of blending modes then yeah here on windows 8 all of them work

    except for the luminosity, which doesn't seem to change in the tool options bar.

    R_Kelly - thanks and that is what I was talking about.  All the others will change except Luminosity.  You can go to the drop down and change it though.

    I reset the photoshop cs6 preferences and that didn't seem to make any difference.

    I haven't reset the preferences, but I restarted 4-5 times now.

    Ahhh....   I was not checking the toolbar.  It appeared to let me select Luminosity from Shift Right click, but it was indeed, staying on the last option in the toolbar.  Sorry about the confusion.

    Yep, looks like a bug in the on-screen blend mode selection process.

     

    I can change to Luminosity successfully in the option bar field itself, just not from the Shift - Right click menu.  Looks like someone counted up the menu entries wrong.

     

    Adobe watches this forum, but just to be SURE they know about the bug, if you don't see one of the Adobe employees acknowledge it here, you should post your description of it here:
