Completely & Utterly OT; Handyman charges

One of the useful things PSP can do is selective cloning. The user selects a paintbrush (size/shape/density/opacity etc.) then right clicks an area in an image to select the source. Left clicking elsewhere then clones from one place to another with all the attributes previously selected. This useful for hiding minor blemishes in a textured area. I was unable to find this facility in the Gimp when I tried it. The gimp's rubber-stamp-icon tool lets you 'paint' an area (selected by the brush type) from one location (selected by ctrl-click) to another (click, or click & drag to copy more than one blob). I use this for touching up blemishes. -- John Stumbles This message has been rot13 encrypted twice for added security |

Problem is of course, I'm used to PSP (been using it since v4.12) but I'll persist. -- Si |

With suitable 'fractal' backgrounds such as lawn and Leylandii, it can hide blemishes the size of a garden shed. I was unable to find this facility in the Gimp when I tried it. Well, of course you couldn't. But it's there. -- Si |

I never got that much addicted to PSP, and being a Linux-ite now I don't have that problem anyway! -- John Stumbles Blamestorming Sitting around in a group, discussing why a deadline was missed or a project failed, and who was responsible. |
