Editor - UI for visualizing brush size

Noticed that when controlling the brush for landscaping, I have to go off the viewport, move the slider and back to it, check if the size is correct, then back to the window and repeat.

Would be great if when we are in landscape mode, we had a subtle sticky slider in the viewport that would also help visualize the brush while we slide it left/right (Brush size is the most used setting from my tests with landscaping and the one that required to see how the brush looks in the world when tweaking).

An extra benefit of this is that you also won’t have to scroll up and down to pick a different layer when you change the size of the brush.

Do they keyboard shortcuts for changing brush size ‘[’ and ‘]’ help at all?

They do. A new user will be overwhelmed I feel before knowing all the shortcuts though, and there is no priority in functions in terms of UI size/priority to make things stand out more, would be great if there is a middle ground where there is a interface that you can toggle that has useful buttons which also show the hotkeys if you hover on them (like the quick menu in Creative, but sticky).

That’s a good point, thanks
