Help!!!
The brush tool is no longer working - when I select on any of the brush tools, spray, Art burhs, spray , line, marker etc, they will not work. When I select the drop down nothing is listed. Additionally, none of the other tools in the box, Effect Tool, Image Sprayer too ect, do not work aswell.
Did I select something to turn off the tool?
I've tried to uninstall and re-install and that did not work.
Any suggestions??
Thanks

Hi Mark,
Are you doing a Full Uninstall or are you repairing it? It can make a night and day difference in my experience. Also, after the uninstall, I would go back and manually delete any files/folders that might have been left behind (ie. Program Files\Corel; Documents and Settings\Application Data\......). Then I (personaly) would reboot befor I reinstalled it. Not such what more to suggest aside from running a reg scanner to clean up any left behind reg keys. Hope that helps some. =)
regards,

Paul,
I've done it both ways but did not re-boot or go back and dig into it for any files remaining. I'll give that a try.
Hey guys just found the solution once you encounter this problem again.
Please follow these steps:
1. strike paint command, press P
2. go to windows tab
3. go to dockers
4.then brush settings
5. once the brush setting windows appears, you will notice a small arrow on the top right of the window
6. strike the "reset brush type"
7. Finish then try the paint brush i hope it will works couse it works on me!!!!

I had the same problem which was not resolved until I removed Corel Draw 12 USING THE PROGRAM DISK and ticking off "remove user files" and then re-installing it.
Removing the program using Windows did not remove the personal settings files associated
Grandly Thank penzlake2.

thanks for that info, what a bug, I had it in CorelPhotopaint 11, I noticed even the clone tool was not drawing, just kind of going through the motions so to speak!
(poor guys who had tried to un-install and re-install, oh well, live and learn!)

Thanks for this penzlake21, your 4 year old post saved my sanity today, that's for sure, with a deadline looming and the Paintbrush suddenly not working! Happy Christmas 2013 - I will eat a mince pie in your honour.

Zahid Farid, THANK YOU for the information about resetting the brush tools! It has been baffling me for over a year.
I have a similar problem with the "Interactive object transparency, Interactive drop shadow, color transparency, and object transparency brush" set of tools.
I thought I'd try to reset these as well, but I can't figure out how to do it? I don't know the docker name for this set of tools.
Can you help me too?
I see this discussion originally tool place in 2010, so I hope you're still around. Ha!

You are awesome mate, done it for me!!
THANKS HEAPS
thank you from the past Zahid this just helped us sort out the clone tool problem
Till now I had reset to defaults by using F8 on starting the program, but this no longer works, the program just does't start … the bush setting fixed the paint/clone problem though Thanks again.
