No. OK back I go and have another look. Done that, but I have difficulty understanding the reasoning behind the choice of levels for each of the colours. Is that covered in the levels classes?

I downloaded the PSD but could not see on the first levels layer what changes you had made apart from the brushing on the mask. I must be missing something.

Hi Damien, are you still a member of Australian photography? If so can you check a thread in colour management called colour management in Photoshop and tell me why they are doing what they are doing. It does not seem right according to what you have always recommended.

Changing the curser back to Normal instead of standard or precision seems to have fixed it. All seems to be normal for the other tools.

Yes that seems to make no difference at all. Nothing has changed. I also have CS6 and that works normally. And so did CC once. I have uninstalled CC and then reinstalled, restarted the computer, reset the workspace, checked all of the preferences, now I have just reset the cursor to normal brush tip and I think it is now working again. I had it on standard and then precise before.

I regularly restart the computer and the cleanup is done weekly. Not a screen shot and not the image I was working on, but maybe you can see the brush on the grey background to the left of the image.

I have a PC desktop running Windows 10 and Photoshop cc 2016. It is over 2 years old, and has 16GB of RAM. Its hard drive has 608GB free out of 932GB. The last time I shut down was just before posting this thread. I run a cleanup program about once a week.

Going to restart the computer, cannot even get print screen to work.

And if I try and do a print screen the brush image turns to a black triangle and a square

That changed the appearance but not the behaviours of the brush. I have a black mask. I want to paint white on it to reveal what is underneath. I cannot because the brush is not behaviing. Now I have a nice cross instead of the brush, but it will not increase or decrease in size with the brackets and will not paint white where I want it to.

Cannot give you a screen shot Damien as I am currently reinstalling CC. However when I select the brush tool I get the image of a brush,not a circle which I usually get and although the size of this brush stays the same it will brush larger or smaller, but colour. I want to hide/reveal on a mask and it will not do so. All images

I have done a quick search but could not find and answer to my question. It is probably something very simple but I have not come across it before. Why is my brush now a paint brush instead of the hide/reveal brush. How do I get it back to normal? PHotoshop CC.
