I know that there has been a similair topic which was answered by Dave Haner but still I cannot seemt o find the Brush Dynamics button in 7.0.

Dave suggested going to <window> and then <show options>. When I go to window I do not seem to have a <show options> and cannot seem to find it anywhere.

Please I need to find the Brush Dynamics pop up for 7.0 as I am now stuck and cannot move forward until I find it.

THANX

Maybe I’m misunderstanding what exactly what you’re looking for, but…

Window|Brushes. The brush pallet opens and that’s where the various brush dynamics are.

Click on your Paintbrush icon (or tap "B" on your keyboard). There are other tools that use the brush shapes and dynamics, but we’ll concentrate on your specific question.

Now, click on main menu up top: Window—»Brushes.

Inspect the big Brushes Palette that appears. Click on the TEXT NAMES in those different rows on the left of the big Brushes Palette. See what happes? It enables that feature—indicated by a tickmark in the box next to it and reveals that feature’s parameter sets, with sliders, drop-down mini menus and number fields where you can enter exact values. Watch the rendering representation of the Brush Tip you have selected in the bottom right area of the Brushes Palette as you change some of those parameters.

Experiment, click, right-click, experiment, read your manual, learn terminology, experiment, play, click, chain your quick reference card to you desk, read it and see where stuff is and how to access features, play some more, read some more, experiment, and click and right-click EVERYWHERE.

Now, crack that manual open or read through the PDF HELP files, and experiment. You can’t "break" Photoshop this way.

When you select the brush tool from the tool box, then look to the far right of the options bar you will see a small graphic next to the palette well. Click on this graphic and the brush dynamics drop down will open. Make your selections from there. You can leave the brush dynamics open, close it or place it in the docking well.
