To erase brush strokes
1 Select the image with the brushed adjustment whose brush strokes you want to erase.
2 If necessary, select the brushed adjustment in the Adjustments inspector or the
Adjustments pane of the Inspector HUD, then click the Brush button in the adjustment
controls.
Click the Brush button.
The Brush HUD for the adjustment appears.
3 In the Brush HUD, click the Eraser button.
Click the Eraser button.
4 Specify the diameter of the brush, its softness, and its intensity using the Brush Size,
Softness, and Strength sliders and value sliders.
5 Drag the brush over the parts of the previously applied brush strokes that you want to
remove.
Tip: Some brushed adjustments are so subtle that it’s difficult to identify the boundaries
of the brush strokes or even the brush strokes themselves. In some cases, one brushed
adjustment can obscure another when brushed over the same area. To help identify
brush strokes, it’s a good idea to use overlays. For more information, see Working with
Brushed Adjustment Overlays.
The brush strokes selected with the eraser brush are erased.
If you want to remove all brush strokes for a specific adjustment that are applied to an
image, you can remove them all at once using the Brush Action pop-up menu in the
Brush HUD for that adjustment.
