There are two ways of changing the brush size during use. One is using the "[" and "]" keys, which decreases/increase the brush size. The other is using the scroll wheel on a mouse (if you have one). Both are working fine on both my Mac and Win10 systems. Have you tried both methods and are therefore saying they're not working? If so, can you provide some details of software version, Lightroom version, and what happens when you try to change the size? Any error messages?

I don't understand what you mean by "drop the cursor". Can you explain?

I'm sorry, it's hard to explain.

When I draw with a brush and want to change the size on a mac, I have to stop drawing to change the size of the brush.

On win I can change the size of the brush during drawing. I do not have to lift the pen on tablet or mouse.

Do you understand it?

thank you so much for your support!

Yes, now I understand a bit better. There's no doubt that adjusting the size of the spot while continuing to draw is much more fluid on Windows than Mac, but I do find that it is still possible on Mac. One probable bug on the Mac is that when using the "[" or "]" keys while continuing to draw, the size of the cursor doesn't change although the underlying brush size does change. Using the scroll wheel on the mouse works a little better, although as I said it is a lot less fluid than on Windows.
