Photoshop Errors: How to Fix Brush Lag

Photoshop Errors: How to Fix Brush Lag

Solution #1: Manage Your File Size
No matter how much you think Photoshop can or should take, eventually it will slow down. And often, larger files equal a slower performance. Here are a couple of things you can do to make sure that the file size doesn't create brush lag:

♦Merge multiple layers together, or flatten often.
♦Reduce/start with a lower document resolution.
♦Consider saving your project over multiple .psd files.


Solution #2: Use Less Hardware Acceleration
If you're having problems with the performance of Photoshop, you can, of course, adjust the performance to the needs of your workflow. To do this:

♦Go to Edit > Preferences > Performance.
♦Under Graphics Processor Settings, go to Advanced Settings.
♦Change the Drawing Mode to Basic.
♦Restart Photoshop to allow changes to be applied.
