Hammer Editor - Displacement alpha doesn't work?

[Cassius Alexander]

So, while making a map in SFM's version of Hammer editor I encountered a problem: paint alpha for displacement just won't work. I wonder if it is a common issue or something related to the certain installation I have (corrupted files, etc).

UPD:
After some investigation and experimentation, I found a fix to this problem.
I compared contents of SFM's "bin" folder (Steam\steamapps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game\bin)
to the contents of TF2's "bin" folder (Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\bin).
What I found was that TF2's one has a folder called "filters", which was missing from SFM's "bin" folder. Simply copying that "filters" folder to Steam\steamapps\common\SourceFilmmaker\game\bin
fixed the issue.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!!! I was going crazy trying to figure out what the hell was wrong. I figured it had something to do with the "Brush" dialogue that was just empty, but I didn't know what. This was exactly what fixed it!
