Question
Hello! I have a problem with my eraser tool which probably is the simplest thing but I can't find it. I must have pressed something and now I can't erase anything from photos. All its settings are functional but I press it and doesn't work!!! Do you think you could help me??

Answer

Eraser Settings
Hi Marianne,
Now that could be a program error, or it could be a setting somewhere.
does this happen to all images or only a particular file.

Ok, the first check would be the info bar on the top. See if it looks exactly the way it looks in the attached image.
Which means, the opacity is full, the flow is fine and the mode is good.

Do let me know if the problem persists.
