Clone tool

tb_clone_s.jpg (997 octets)The Clone tool lets you paint a copy of some part of an image into the same image. This tool is very useful for removing defects in one portion of the image by duplicating another portion.

 

To do so :

  • Select the clone tool in from the toolbar (N).
  • Alt-click to define the source element. This source element is in fact the sample point from which the image will begin to be duplicated as you paint.
  • Drag to clone the source element in another part of the image.
  • Modify the options of this tool in the Clone options palette.
