Hi there,
Is there a way to hide brush icons so they aren't in the way? Photoshop doesn't show them so I'm wondering why they have to be there in Lightroom.
Here's an example:

I find if I use multiple brushes everything gets cluttered when using any brushes so I'd like to find a way to hide them to allow focus on what I'm doing. Sure I can momentarily back out of the brush but I find that a very disruptive workflow.
Hope someone can tell me how to hide those after selecting the one I wish to work with.
Thanks!

H hides them. There is a check block at the bottom of the screen too, if I remember correctly.

Yes, at the botttom left there is drop-down list of how to display them. You can you between display all or none or only tha active one and an "auto" mode that hide them whenever the cursor is outside of the photo.

Thanks guys.
I found it staring me in the face! Switched it to Auto and that seems to help. Intended to send this shortly after posting but got company and was away from the laptop until just now.

I used to think I had a magnificent grasp of the obvious!
