I use wacom with photoshop, and I can't change the brush size, becasue anytime I press alt to use the shortcut for a brush size it ends up being a colour picker. Doesn't matter if I ctrl + alt + click and drag / ctrl + alt + right click and drag / ctrl + alt + press pen hard etc....
Then I don't want alt to be a shortcut for my colour picker as I have personalised keybord shortcuts anyway.
Where do I change this set?
Thanks,
C

I don't think you can change the Alt key.
However I also use a Wacom (on Windows 10 so Mac may be different)
If I press the Alt key (or the Alt button on the Wacom) the color picker appears but if I hold Alt and press the button on the pen which I assigned to right click, I can adjust the brush size as normal. Are you saying that does not work for you?

Unfortunately, it comes up with a deafult window for a brush size sets, what's already appeard if not the colour picker.
Is there any other combination you can come up with? I feel I tried all combinations for buttons and shortcuts.

Are you using Windows or Mac.
That menu you showed is what appears if I just Right Click . Alt-Right Click brings up the display I showed in my previous post.
What happens when you try and do this with a mouse (leaving the Wacom out of the process)?
Note - "On-canvas brush resizing" does use the graphics processor. Can you show a snapshot of your Preferences - performance tab (including the Advanced settings)

I don't use a Mac here - but I believe the combination is Option + Ctrl + Drag

for brush size it's ctrl + alt + drag. I'm not sure which is called option so it might be the same as davecm told.

when using a mouse it works just fine, seemlessly letting me control the size of the brush.
as soon as I switch to tablet it stops working and also - what makes it annoying is if I try to change the size, then it pick the colour and I cant continue on drawing... @

OK I can't see anything wring with your Preferences, which is confirmed as the mouse is working OK.
If your Wacom settings are similar to mine, but not working, I am going to have to step back and hopefully a user of a Mac with a Wacom can help you take this forward.

also there must be a way to get rid off 'alt'.

What you are using is the correct shortcut for the HUD or "Heads Up Display Color picker.
Control Option(Alt) Command Click
For Brush Size and Hardness:
With a painting tool selected, Control + Option (Mac) – drag left/right in order to decrease/ increase brush size. Control + Option (Mac) – drag up/down to decrease/ increase brush hardness. That's for a mouse.
Ctrl and Command are two different keys on the Mac. Check your tablet setup to see which button or tap it is assigned to.
