Quickly adjust brush size, hardness and opacity - Cintiq Pro 16 1st Gen

Hey! 

I´m setting up my Cintiq Pro 16 (1st Gen) pen display on my Windows 11 notebook.

In Photoshop there is the practical keyboard shortcut Alt+right mouse button. This allows you to quickly adjust the brush size and hardness. Currently I'm clicking the front button of the pen. The brush settings window opens. I have to fiddly adjust the brush size. That almost drives me crazy.

I would also like to be able to change the opacity quickly and easily. That would make my work so much easier.

How do you use these functions? What would be your recommendation?

Thank you for your help!

Andy

  Hi Andreas Schwaiger

  You can use the modifier feature to check to assign Atl, Ctrl or Shift to a pen button and then when you tap the pen while holding the button, the cursor will react accordingly.
