Can't quickly access my preset brushes

[vickie1225]

Updated to Photoshop cc2018, I retouch and do a lot of digital photographic artwork. Before update, I could right click and switch my brushes (when cloning) on the fly. But since update, on right click, I get a panel to create new brushes. I don't need that! I need my preset brushes when I right click. I don't want to have a huge panel that I have to search  beyond the variety of tools to create a NEW brush when I just want to quickly select a preset brush that I have already made. Any suggestions? Obviously bummed.

Hi

Can you show a screenshot of what you see and also give your system details (operating system etc)

I see this on right clicking :

I see the same (what you showed in your reply) in current Photoshop version, but what I attached here is similar to what I used to see in previous Photoshop version. I could right click my mouse using clone, eraser, paint brush tool and quickly select a preset brush. I guess I will just have to retrain myself which is unfortunate due to the speed that I must work.

Hi

I have CC2017 and CC2018 both installed here and both performed the same  on right clicking from the clone tool :

CC2017.1.1 :

CC2018 :

Note if you want the brush list in CC2018 to just show thumbnails then just uncheck the name and stroke options

That works as you have shown above. But the brush tips are showing much smaller than 2017 version. Disappointing to have things change (like when switching from eraser to clone and brush changes to last used selection on that tool. Previous version, the brush would remain the same throughout tools). Thank you for your help.

You can alter the size of the brush tip previews using the slider at the bottom of the dialogue
