Clone and Heal Curser Independent Sizer

[fossil]

Hi everyone

My first post - Please be gentle.

An idea to improve the Clone and Heal tool is to be able to adjust the the size of the curser to either the spot area or the sample area circles separately. I realise that both can be resized at the moment, (concurrently) however being able to adjust clone circle to different sizes to remove / increase the repair / sample spots would be beneficial to blend spots into the repairs.

A further development - A blending tool to add a % of feathering to the clone? Small to large with 3' % feather or large to small with 1' % feather

Additionally being able to copy from another photo in the collection would be pretty handy also. Using the clone / heal tool to copy a spot from one photo to the next.. Great to remove people from that panorama shot (set up on a tripod take a few photos of the scene - people move and clone them in and out as required...) Copy paste from the clone / heal tool between photos

Well just trying to add value.

Cheers

Hi fossil, you can do this already using the Sync command.

And although I am not a forum moderator, you will probably be asked by them to add your signature with lots of goodness all about you and your setup!!!

So I'd get in quickly if I were you!!!

Thanks for the comments - As I still have my learners plates on I will explain my basic understanding of the sync tool when using the clone / heal function. I understand I can copy a typical repair from one location of one photo and repear the repair to the next photo. (In the same location and effect the same repair from photo to photo). ie to repair a imperfection in a lens or something like that. Being able to clone out the spot or something that appears in the same location I can do.

One of my suggestions was to copy a item from one photo onto the next photo using the clone / heal. Copy and paste a section from Photo "a" to photo "B" (maybe a different size / scalable?) If this can be done please assist in where to find a link to where I can learn how.

Thanks

Rod, that's not currently possible. Might want to make a feature request here: wishform
