Resize or change hardness of painting cursors by dragging
You can resize or change the hardness of a painting cursor by dragging in the image. As you drag, you preview both
the size and hardness of the painting tool.
Do one of the following:
To resize a cursor, right-click + Alt (Windows) or Control + Option (Mac OS) and drag to the left or right.
To change the hardness of a cursor, Shift + right-click + Alt (Windows) or Control + Option + Command (Mac
OS) and drag to the left or right.
Using the options bar
The options bar appears below the menu bar at the top of the workspace. The options bar is context sensitive—it
changes as you select different tools. Some settings in the options bar (such as painting modes and opacity) are
common to several tools, and some are specific to one tool.
You can move the options bar in the workspace by using the gripper bar, and you can dock it at the top or bottom of
the screen. Tool tips appear when you position the pointer over a tool. To show or hide the options bar, choose
Window
> Options.

To return tools to their default settings, right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) the tool icon in the options
bar, and then choose Reset Tool or Reset All Tools from the context menu.
For more information on setting options for a specific tool, search for the tool’s name in Photoshop Help.
Create and use tool presets
Tool presets let you save and reuse tool settings. You can load, edit, and create libraries of tool presets using the Tool
Preset picker in the options bar, the Tool Presets panel, and the Preset Manager.
To choose a tool preset, click the Tool Preset picker in the options bar, and select a preset from the pop-up panel. You
can also choose Window
> Tool Presets and select a preset in the Tools Presets panel.
Viewing the Tool Preset picker
A. Click the Tool Preset picker in the options bar to show the Tool Preset pop-up panel. B. Select a preset to change the tool’s options to the
preset, which applies each time you select the tool until you choose Reset Tool from the panel menu. C. Deselect to show all tool presets; select
to show presets for only the tool selected in the toolbox.
