Hello, I've been experiencing a weird brush cursor issue and I haven't been able to find anything online to fix it.
This cursor problem is different from the "chunk of cursor missing upon resizing" issue that so many people have had.
In Photoshop, when I resize my brush using the "[" and "]" keys, I will often see my cursor get distorted. It will very briefly appear to the right of where the cursor should be and it will look kind of oblong. Another distortion that occurs is the cursor very briefly becomes a half circle that is a bit larger than the cursor should be. This usually happens between 150px and 250px size and occurs with all brushes.
I'm also experiencing a distortion when I move the brush cursor over to the panels section. This distortion appears (again, very briefly) as a broken up horizontal line just above the brush cursor. Also, within this line, I can see the regular pointer arrow cursor. Sometimes I see two arrow cursors within the line and other times just one. This happens with all brushes of size 500px or less.
I have updated my video card drivers to the latest version and I have updated my Photoshop with the latest patch.
I use Photoshop CS5 64-bit, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, and a Toshiba Satellite L655-S5157 with an Intel(r) HD Graphics video card.
I heard about someone with a problem somewhat similar to mine and he said he fixed it by manually deleting his preference files. He had tried doing the shift+alt+ctrl on startup to delete his preference files, but it didn't fix the bug (I tried it too and it didn't work for me either).
I would like to try manually deleting my preference files, but I just don't know where they are.
Thanks for any help. |
