select and mask tool warnings - how to disable?

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Its just one of those small annoying things that has plagued me forever with ZBrush… when switching mask or select tool types i.e. from MaskPen default to MaskLasso or MaskCurve etc… that little warning dialogue that pops up and requires a ‘don’t show this until next restart’ button click. I crash Zbrush many times a day, so I have to click this a ton and it still drives me nuts.
Is there any way to disable that? I can’t find reference to it anywhere. Perhaps a Scripting solution?

As a caveat, I happen to like the warnings when deleting subtools as its not UnDoable, but with switching brushes it just gets annoying.

There is no way to disable it. You just have to get into the proper workflow habit and you will never see the warning dialog again. If you want a Mask brush, press and hold Ctrl first then select your brush. If you want Selection, Clip, Slice or Trim brushes, press and hold Ctrl+Shift first then select your brush.

Thanks, I’ve always just had them as custom buttons that I would click, without realizing holding ctrl+shift would just skip the dialogue and set them accordingly. Cheers.
