Desmond Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Hi, I just downloaded the trial version today [25/09/2015] and installed it on my 2 week old iMac with Yosemite. Presently I use Photoshop Elements 9 and didn't want to spend a lot on more software for my new computer. I like the initial look and feel of the program and the fact that command-L brings up the much used levels option that I am used to. Another aspect of Photoshop that I sometimes use is the clone stamp tool and I tried this next, It works the same way as Elements in that alt-click selects the starting point and shows a little "+" as the source point. But when I start trying to clone the way I do in Photoshop nothing happens. Opacity and flow are both at their default 100% and hardness at 80%. Am I doing something wrong?

Staff MEB Posted September 24, 2015 Staff Share Posted September 24, 2015 Hi Desmond, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Are you sure you have the image/photo layer selected in the Layers panel and not the Level adjustement layer?

Desmond Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 Hi Desmond, Welcome to Affinity Forums :) Are you sure you have the image/photo layer selected and not the Level adjustement layer? Thanks for the reply. I will check that when I get home, 10:00 am on Friday here :) I doubt I had a levels layer open unless that happens automatically when you do a levels adjustment(?)

Desmond Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 Ok, I tried it again and see that if I do a levels adjustment it automatically starts a new layer which means I need to click back to the background to do a clone stamp adjustment :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
