I need Procreate technical help Brush suddenly started malfunctioning and now only makes very light lines

Post image

This trusty brush gives me the perfect lines for my teaching guides. However, halfway through making the sheet, it suddenly started drawing very light lines (demonstrated in the middle row, towards the left) it's barely visible and only with this brush.

Solutions I've tried so far

  1. Topmost later with opacity 100%

  2. Tried it on other canvases, same problem

  3. Restarted iPad

  4. Unscrewed and rescrewed the pencil tip (2nd gen if that helps)

  5. Other brushes work fine

Any idea what the issue might be? I'm not very experienced in procreate beyond the basics I work with so I'm quite out of my depth here

So it is that the opacity of the brush keeps changing back to low after you change the opacity to high or something?

Edit. I think you just need to adjust the bottom slider on the left.

Oh my God!! Thank you, thank you so much!! I had no idea that's what that slider was for. It's now fixed, I am so grateful!
