With "Aligned" checked, draw on the image. I will use the cherry blossom pattern for this example. The pink arrow indicates an image of cherry blossoms from a photograph that I defined as a pattern. Many patterns come with the software, but it's possible to create your own. You can select a pattern with the pull-down menu in the menu bar. Instead, it draws from the menu of saved patterns (right). This tool doesn't use part of the image as its source. Now click on the other option, the Pattern Stamp tool. Unchecking "Aligned" means that every time you let go of the mouse button and click again while drawing, the source point reverts back to its original position. If you check "Aligned," then the spot designated as the source from which the copy is drawn will move along with your cursor, no matter how many times you click. The important thing to note with the Clone Stamp tool is that it has an item called "Aligned" in its menu bar. This allows you to paint over blemishes and other obstructions. When you start painting, your brush copies whatever was drawn in the spot that you designated as the source. With the Clone Stamp, as with the Healing Brush, you first select an area of the image as the source. The Clone Stamp tool is similar to the Healing Brush tool.in fact, it is the forerunner of the Healing Brush tool, since it was used in earlier versions of Photoshop before the Healing Brush was introduced. Well, now's the time to rectify that!įirst, take a look at the Clone Stamp tool on the toolbar (left). I did not, however, explain how to do so. Up until now, I have frequently mentioned "if you like, you can create and save your own" in regard to such things as patterns and brushes. Lesson 12 Saving patterns, brushes, and alpha channels
