How is Auto mask expected to work?
I have large yellow area I wish to change color.
Selecting Adjustment Brush, Feather, Flow and Density 100.

How long it takes LR5 normally to zoom into 100% view of 16 mega pixel raw file? (1200x1920 monitor)

I installed LR5 few days ago and today experienced occasionally this new behaviour of clone or heal tool.
I believe it was a clone tool I played with around a light...
