Local adjustments brush opacity
Loving the new version 7 upgrade and the results so far are excellent.
For me, one of the big features in V7 that I've put feature request tickets in with Phase support was being able to adjust the opacity of local adjustments. So pleased it's been put into V7 but I'm totally confused in the way it works.
Am I right in thinking that you can only make brush opacity changes BEFORE you paint in the adjustment layer? If so, is it me or does it seem silly to assume I know what opacity my final adjustment needs to be before I make it?
I would have loved to have seen the adjustment brush opacity continually adjustable like I think it does in Lightroom or preferably, to be able to adjust the opacity of each individual adjustment layer.

One of the main goals of opacity in the layer is to allow variable application of a single adjustment within one layer. If you need more or less opacity you can use the erase tool at a low opacity level to remove some of the existing opacity. 0 -
Thanks Jon for the reply and your method is a great work around if a little unscientific. 😉
Would be nice to have a value to each opacity that can easily be repeated in the future when I've long forgotten how many times I brushed over with the eraser at 10%. I would also love to see the global colour temperature/tint slider added to the local adjustments for when shooting in mixed lighting as my brain works better with kelvin values rather than in the colour editor.0 -
By the way, the new automask feature is amazing!!! 😄 0 -
Hello ,
I would like to let you know, on my system this brush used to work well in 6 ,now on 7 it works erratically, sometimes it does what it is supposed to do..and sometimes the whole image gets the treatment I want the masked area to have.... and the program crashes in doing so...
I have had about 7 crashes this morning.. with various issues! ( I have been Using capture one for a few years now-love it!)

The Secret: Adjust Selected Layer setting for the tool (it is ON for the tools on the Local Adjustments tool tab, and OFF by default on other tool tabs). See the little brush sign in the tool's title bar as indicator.0 -

Granted I didn't see that tiny icon in the bar.... Now I see it Tried and Tested. and Understood.!
