ariazzfairy Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 So I got Paint.net 3.5.8 and I tried to use the Clone Stamp, it worked the first two times, but then stopped working. So I started searching for answers why it wouldn't work, and I tried all of them, including reinstalling, checking the Color Alpha Slider and everything I could think of. I don't know why it doesn't work, but I really want it to work. Anyone knows how? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted June 23, 2011 Share Posted June 23, 2011 Be sure you're using it correctly. It is the CTRL key that sets the stamp location More >> http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/20321-how-does-the-clone-stamp-tool-work/page__view__findpost__p__340447 The Help docs >> http://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/CloneStamp.html Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ariazzfairy Posted June 23, 2011 Author Share Posted June 23, 2011 Okay, well, okay this is what I do: I open my image. Then I go to Layers- Import from File, which opens my second image in my second layer. Then I resize my second image and then presses Clone Stamp. The circle appears. I resize the Clone Stamp Circle to 90. Then I place the circle onto the place where I want to clone and click CTRL and click. Then I release CTRL and there is a circle on the place I want to clone and then places the clone stamp circle onto the place I want to clone too. I click but then nothing happens even through there are two circles now. WAIT. Now, it works. Well sorta. I can clone a part of the picture that I originally wanted to clone too but then I can't clone a part of the picture that I want to clone from.
