Polivia Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 Over a year ago, someone asked if Paint.NET had a Photoshop equivalent (here, no one answered.) for a healing brush and now in Paint Shop Pro X they have a more complex version of it (you can fix blemishes, whiten teeth, etc.), and I was wondering if it was possible for the next version of Paint.NET to have a feature like this. I really don't feel like spending a ton of money on one of these programs for just having a few more features.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 This is not planned for any release in the short-term. You might have luck with the Clone Stamp tool however.

William Bokunic Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 As for myself I would really like it also. I have mostly been confined to Paint Shop Pro 8 for most of my editing career (just recently began looking at free alternatives) and have found a trick around it though it requires more skill. Use the clone stamp at 50% opacity (Percent 50 mode I believe in Paint.NET) and clone over what you want to "heal." Next use the smudge tool (which I don't think Paint.NET has, so maybe use Gimp for this one effect, though I don't really like Gimp much), also at 50% opacity, and smudge around the cloned area until it looks like you want it to. Currently this is the only solution that seems to work and act much like the healing brush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Bokunic Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I've been searching for some sort of free program that is just for image retouching, happen I find it I'll be surer to PM you it as the healing brush basically defines image retouching. Sorry that I cannot offer more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
