• When you use the Clone Stamp tool CS6 the alt key does not work?

  Just recently, my mouse have misbehaved and touched my CS6 when I was working on a photo. The result, my alt key does not work. For example, when I use the Clone Stamp tool, I can't sample as the alt key does not work. Even in ACR, the alt key does not work. When I drag the 'white' to the left while pressing the ALT key, the screen turns black.

  Help, please? Thank you

  Steven Teo

  Hi Steven Teo,

  You are able to use the ALT key well otherwise on your computer?

  You can try to reset the Clone Stamp tool.

  To reset, follow the instructions below:

  1. Select the Clone Stamp tool

  2. right click / Control click dropdown at the top left

  3. choose Reset tool

  

  Hope that helps.

  Kind regards

• follow-up Clone Stamp tool

  Hey... !

  How to monitor a clip and get the Clone Stamp tool to follow this path? Even if the object that I followed is in a different place that the spot I am trying to cover?

  I'm looking for an expression og kind get the position of the tool clone to follow a Null value or anything of the sort... ?

  Thank you

  Expressions of this sort of thing are very difficult and nearly impossible if there is a lot of movement and the prospect of change in the shot. Here's why. Let's say that your photo was taken with the camera very close to the clock, panoramic left right at the center of the clock. With the camera very close to the subject as the unit's clock begins to come as part of the distance between the left and the right of the base is much shorter this is when the clock is centered in the frame. This means that you must follow the scale and position and make adjustments to your position of clone based on the change of the scale as well as the change in position. If you throw in the angle changes horizon that you would get if the camera was tilted to the left but also left exhausted but sat up (or so held in the hand and the horizon didn't really level) then you would also follow and make adjustments for the rotation. Now you start to get into trigonometry. Finally, you encounter problems that arise with the distance and angle of the original sample. because there are no controls to change the location of the source. If your source is 100 pixels to the left and 50 pixels above the position of clone, it will always be 100 pixels to the left and 50 pixels above the sampling point. If the perspective and scale change then your source of change and the clone image will change.

  Now that you understand the problem, I'll show you how to use an expression to shift the position of a point of the track. I guess there is no rotation in the shot.

  This is how to address the problem. You will need to collect data from the position of Tracker (t), the change of scale (ts), the position of the clone (ip), the discrepancy between the position of clone and the tracker on the first image (ofst), then you will need to calculate the change in offset or adjusted offset (aofst), as the scale (ts) changes by multiplying the offset (ofst) of the scale (ts) then you will need to calculate the new position by adding the offset adjusted to the position of the track. This is the expression and it assumes that you have applied data to a null value, you named "Tracker":

  t = thisComp.layer("Tracker").transform.position;

  TS = thisComp.layer("Tracker").transform.scale/100;

  IP = t.valueAtTime (0);

  OFST = (value - ip);

  aofst = [ofst [0] * ts [0], ofst [1] * ts [1]];

  NP = t + aofst;

  Rail weighbridge for line 2, is divided by 100 to convert a decimal to percentage so the multiplication in line 5 will give the right result.

  Line 3 uses the value according to the time to retrieve the position of the tracker at the beginning of the model.

  Line 4 calculates the offset by subtracting the value of the property, the position of the initial position of the tracker clone.

  Line 5 to set the offset by multiplying the percentage offset. You have made this calculation in a table because the scale and position are the two tables.

  Line 6 simply adds the offset adjusted to position Tracker.

  If there is rotation to throw into the mix, you can use trigonometry to calculate x and y offset based on the angle between the position of Tracker and the clone. That would be pointless because the position of the offset of the source to the clone would not change. In my example, it would always be 100 pixels to the left and 50 pixels above the position of the clone.

  A better solution to a shot of movement would be to use the Motion Tracker to stabilize the shooting in removing movement rotation and scaling, applying this stabilization for shooting, the shooting of duplication and to appoint the Clone duplicate, then using the original film stabilized as source, make the repairs with the cloning tool, then set the clone to paint on transparent and slide in your main computer and remove the stabilization using a null value and a couple of expressions and a double of your film stabilized.

• Help with using the Clone Stamp tool.  How do a get a better game?

  Hello

  Please see my sample image:

  

  As shown in the picture, I want to remove the wood in the corner.  I thought using the Clone Stamp tool would give me the look of the corner by sampling above the wood and then clone on the wood.  But what I got is a lighter angle of research, not what I want.  I tried some blending mode, but I don't get the game I want, so I thought I would ask here.  Is there a better way to do it?  I have this same problem with other image like this.  I take a point of sampling part of the image and then the Clone Stamp ends by lighter or a different shade in the buffer zone.  Yet once, maybe the clone stamp tool is not the right tool to do this, if so, what else is there?  The Healing Brush tool is worse for what I do in the type of healing.

  Thank you

  The Clone tool may not be the best choice when large areas are involved. It is easier and faster to make a selection of an area of choice and then using Edit > transform > deformation to replicate and extend the area selected, as shown here

  

• Automated control of the option line in the Clone Stamp tool. Intentional? Or my installation?

  Hello

  Today, I noticed an "Aligned" somewhat unusual in the Clone Stamp tool when behavior is deselected. By double-clicking on the image with the button alt or option key causes of the behavior of the tool of change and 'Aligned' to become verified. So if you do not intend using aligned, you alt/option click of your mouse to point the source, decide on a different source point, click alt/option and all of a sudden you find yourself using an aligned clone stamp.

  This does not happen with the Healing Brush tool, which makes me think this isn't an intentional shortcut. It is also powerful irritant.

  I tried it with x 64 and x 32 CS6 on Windows. It happens on both. It also happens on the Macintosh? Is it possible to turn off this behavior?

  Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.1 (13.0.1 20120808.r.519 2012/08 / 08:21:00:00) x 64

  Operating system: Windows 7 64-bit

  Version: 6.1 Service Pack 1

  Best wishes

  OK, according to Jeffrey Tranberry, there is currently no way to change this behaviour given - reset tool (something that I constantly forget!) reduces the time that the second click took to be recognized, allowing better control of the tool for me. Hope this helps someone in the future.

  If changes should be made to this I would double click switch to be turned off completely.

• Could not use the Clone Stamp tool as the area to clone has not been set

  Freshly installed 10 items.  Can not use the option-click to define an area for the clone stamp.  The error I get is:

  Could not use the clone stamp tool because the area to clone has not been defined (option - click to set a sampling point).

  New Mac Mini.  Had the same problems in Elements 9 so I installed the trial of 10.  Is it an error of keyboard shortcut?  Do not have this problem with Elements 9 on my Mac Air or my Windows 7 system.

  I'm not a newbie and know how to use the tool clone.  I won't say that I'm an expert, so if it's something related to diapers please throw some ideas.

  Yes, that sounds like a problem of layers.  If the area that you use to define the source of duplication is a transparent area on one of your layers, it will not work.  Released from the Palette layers, then make sure that you use the area of the image (and not the mask area) - if the area of the image on the layer is active, it will have a border.

• Problem with the brush of the Clone Stamp tool.

  I have not had this problem before.

  The brush takes the form of the Clone Stamp tool, that it is in the Toolbox, instead of a circle, as it was before.

  I have not found a solution to help : Brushes Sets the brush. Click the arrow next to the brush sample, choose a brush category from the pop-up menu of the brushes, and then select a brush thumbnail.

  In the photoshop elements Editor, go to Preferences > display & cursors

  and adjust the slider of the paint on normal or full-screen.

• Clone Stamp tool works is not on the new layer

  I created a new layer and tried the on this new layer Clone Stamp tool to us, but it won't work. It will work on the background layer, but not the new layer, that I created. Please help, it drives me crazy. I use the last photoshop.

  Looks like you beat me, Chuck!

  Mine works fine on current and below.

  

  Try a reset of the tool:

  

  If this fails, try a reset preference:

  Win: Press and hold the keys Ctrl + Alt + Shift immediately after the launch of Photoshop starting. A box will appear asking if you want to continue with the reset, select 'yes '. If you don't see this, you're not fast enough... Try again.

  Mac: Hold down Cmd + Opt + shift and run Photoshop. A box will appear, asking you if you want to continue with the reset, select 'yes '.

• Question about settings in Elements 9 Clone Stamp tool

  I am a fairly simplistic user of 9 items on a HP Pavilion dv7 with Windows 9.

  I want to be able to copy small parts of pictures on other parts of the same photos.  I used to be able to do that very well.

  Then, somehow, the box labeled 'Modes' has changed from the default setting.  I need default setting.

  I tried the positions of Modes, but none seem to be the one to copy from one place to the other.

  Any ideas on the reset to the default values for this?

  Thanks for any help on this.

• In Photoshop's Clone Stamp tool applies the theory of matrices in its functions?

  IM currently doing a math project that has various applications of the theory of matrices and Im just curious to know if the Clone Stamp tool uses this concept to replicate pixles

  So you're saying "should I use math matrix? -Since there is nothing called "theory of matrices" I know...

  The clone copy stamp data of pixels from one place to another, or even between the images.

  You might consider images for matrices (width * height * channels), but we don't usually operations mathematics matrix on them.

  The clone stamp can rotate or flip the image data source - which uses the matrix mathematics to calculate the rotation or reverse.

  But you'll find more math matrix in something as filter-> other-> custom, which is pretty simple convolution/correlation function using matrices (correlation/convolving one matrix with one another).

  And there are many places where the matrices are used for solutions of the method of least squares (such as MergeToHDR).

  Mathematical matrix can be used when color conversions, especially between the RGB color spaces.

• CLONE STAMP TOOL

  My Clone Stamp tool has suddenly stop working. No one knows how to fix?

  Ok. I'm a fool. I watched the brush toolbar and I had set it to color instead of the normal. Sorry if I have embarrassed anyone. I had not used this tool in a while so I forgot. I hope at least that my help someone else. Thank you very much for your quick response. I imagined all kinds of things.

• In CS6 Clone Stamp tool will not work with Tiff files

  All of a sudden the Clone Stamp tool does not work when you work on a tif file. Yes, I get the circle with + sign when I press the ALT key, but tool not clones.

  Hi Trevor!

  I discovered that it affects all file extensions.  Files were created after adjustments in Bridge. Layer is not locked. The opacity is 46. Now that I have reviewed your response, I was watching a FAQ on the same thing. Honestly, I didn't know you can reset tools.

  I found out how to reset the CSTool and voila! Now, works great.

  Thanks for the tips...
