Thanks, Andy, to you and the whole Painter Team!
Downloading now, then installation.
Will let you all know how it goes, expecting it will go well.

The brush performance is much better but it looks like it introduced a diffusion bug with Real Wet Oils. I keep getting random square or rectangle voids and random stroke creep since updating.
Everything appears to be performing well, so thank you Painter Team.
Except for the Eraser, however. Selecting it still turns the layer to Gel mode and knocks out access to Preserve Transparency. I know this is known about. Also, when using it I get cursor jitters. The cursor jumps between the Painter cursor and the Windows pointer/arrow. I'll persevere for the time being but even with the increased performance it really is too annoying to continue with for long periods. 12.01 is problem free.
Hi Joe:

Are you using the Eraser tool, an eraser brush, or the stylus eraser when this happens? Which cursor are you using (ie Enhanced brush ghost, brush ghost, iconic, single pixel)?
Thanks!

Hi Wendy,
This happens with both the Eraser Tool and the rear end eraser on my grip pen. I normally use single pixel but I've tried the others and it's the same - flickering when I stroke with the Eraser. The cursor flicks between single pixel, the little clock icon that indicates "wait" and the pointer all in about a half second. I usually have the Brush Controls Panel open and whenever I erase I can see the Method and Subcategory jumping between different states.
