Hello there, Right now I almost never go to the top to resize my brush even though I want to. It’s pretty common in Photoshop to use the "[“ and “]” keys to size the brush up and down. I know those are used for in and out points in CR. But maybe using “+” and “-” on the number pad could be done? I’m open to “where” as long as I can easily do it. Another option is to use a “modifier key scenario” so that when I hold that down and I drag, the brush sizes up or down depending on what direction I’m dragging. I’m actually liking that second option more and more. Thanks! ---
