PS Friends – I use CS at work and at home, and absolutely love it, but. On one computer the healing brush tool shape on the screen is a little circle, just like it was in version 7. On the other computer, the tool shape is a small Band-Aid. How do I change it back to the circle shape. It’s driving me nuts (and that’s not a very long drive) – Help is very much appreciated – Thanks, Bob

You don’t. That’s two different tools. The circle is the healing brush, the other is the patch tool. You select them using the flyout.

Thanks, but when I choose the "Healing Brush" (not the patch tool), I get a Band-Aid cursor, not a circle, and that’s the problem?

In PS8 I suppose you can change between ‘tool icons’, ‘brush tips’, and ‘precise cursor (cross bar)’ in the same menu as you could do in any prior version that I remember: In the programs preferences.
