Reference: Troubleshooting
This topic describes some of the reasons why a brushstroke may not appear:
• Main color — In the Color panel, what color is the Main Color (front) swatch? Is it a color that will
show up when applied to your image? If not, click the Main Color swatch, and then set a different
color.
• Opacity — Check the Opacity setting on the property bar and, if necessary, adjust the pop-up slider to
increase opacity.
• Brush method — The brush method determines the basic nature of a brush. To check the brush
method, choose Window Brush Control Panels General. If you’re drawing with a light color on a
dark background, the method must be set to Cover in order to show the lighter color.
• Drawing mode — When you make a selection, the drawing mode determines what part of the selection
is protected. For more information, see “Choosing the protected area of a selection” on page 588.
