Random Diva Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 Hi folks, new to Paint.net and photo manipulation. I'm trying to use the cloning tool without success. I know how to select the area I want to clone, but why does the circle being cloned from move around in relation to the area I'm trying to fill? Yikes, hope that makes sense. I thought that when I selected an area to clone that the selection would stay on that until I chose something else . . . . Help would be appreciated. Oh and I'm using version 3.5.8 Smiles Lorri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdnnoob Posted July 19, 2011 Share Posted July 19, 2011 You are expecting the clone tool to function the way it does in GIMP and Photoshop, which it doesn't.

Well that's a short and sweet answer, thanks. No, not being sarcastic, I appreciate your to-the-point answer. Off to try GIMP now. Thanks again, Lorri.
