AD Brutus Symmetry

AD Brutus Symmetry is a Photoshop Creative Cloud Panel (from CC to 2017+) that provides tools to work with -almost- realtime symmetry.
Brutus is Adictive! Awesome for Character design! Fantastic for Brainstorming!

Until Adobe makes Photoshop realtime symmetry possible this tools are the closer approach you could have. It basically uses Photoshop guides (vertical and horizontal) as Axis for the symmetry, but it’s not limited to guides, it also works with selections and for fastest use we can assign shorcuts to the main functions (Instructions included).
Brutus is a great companion for your artist toolbox! Watch it in action…

Brutus also includes another fantastic technique to draw or paint with symmetry in Photoshop, in this case the symmetry is generated with mirrored smart layers that are set up for you with one click (I’ve created a tutorial for PS CS6 some years ago > Watch it here).

While working with Brutus you can use the last two buttons to save your active layer as a PNG or to save the whole merged file as PNG, no dialogues, no distraction… one click and you have a high quality screenshot of your artwork saved in a folder and including the date and hour with the name.

    Photoshop CC recently updated to 2015.1.2 version 20160113.r.355 x64

    I was wondering if you can confirm that the Brutus Symmetry will work with this new version? many other extensions that I previously owned has stopped working.

    Thanks
