Issue with paint brush [Cant edit brush settings???] - Al5r1 - 08-24-2024

Hi guys, I'm new to gimp, and recently this little annoying popup covered where I could previously edit my brush. Angry

I honestly have no idea how to remove this screen so I can edit my brush.


I'm in a pickle here.

So how would I open the brush editor to edit the brush size/hardness/force ext?? I can't find it on the docks anymore.     Huh






Man I really such at this.

Yeah....I sort of guessed that you had closed the tool options (amongst other things)

My advice is reset the dock back to the default settings. Look in Edit -> Preferences for Window Management.

Then restart Gimp.

..and stop using the brush editor. Really it is a bit of a legacy from earlier Gimp versions. Only really needed for making parametric (.vbr) brushes.

I believe you have access to the Tool Options window.

In this window you can edit/adjust brush values such as angle, hardness, strength, etc.
