I'm studying in the Missing FAQ Ver. 7 2018. On page 242 under "How to use Adjustment Brush?", paragraph 3 states "There's a selection of presets in the Effects pop-up..." but the paragraph doesn't state where the Effects pop-up is located. I'm in Develop with the Adjustment Brush selected. I couldn't find anything in the drop downs in the upper left. It wasn't in the Presets in the left panel. Clicking on the word "Effect" in the Options panel did nothing and Effects isn't listed in the Options panel. I'd especially like to use the Burn, Dodge, etc presets mentioned but can't find the pop-up. My Adjustment Brush Options panel looks exactly like the Options panel shown on page 242 (Figure 12.44). Any ideas. Rick
 
To the right of the word 'Effect:' there's a dropdown list - shown with scrolling triangles. On the screenshot I have here, I selected Exposure. On the example in the book, it says 'Custom'

OK -- Thanks a lot. I was clicking on Effect: when I should have been clicking on Custom. You're referencing the 2020 version of Classic CC FAQ. I was reading the 2018 release. Rick

No, the 2018 printed copy and the updated eBook have exactly the same screenshot. I attached a personal screenshot I took so as to easily see the dropdown.
