Use the clone stamp tool

The clone stamp copies exactly what is under one spot and paints it somewhere else. Where the heal brush guesses, clone does what you tell it, which makes it the right tool for brick walls, horizons and anything with clear lines.

How to use the clone stamp

  1. Choose or drop a photo. The Clone tool is ready.
  2. Alt-click a clean area to choose where to copy from, or select Choose where to copy from and click.
  3. Paint over the area to fix. The source marker follows your brush at the same distance. Save from Export.

Good to know

  • Pick a source with the same light and texture as the area you are covering.
  • Lower Edge hardness for invisible blending; raise it along hard edges.
  • Change the source often, or the copied pattern will repeat noticeably.
