Before the last update for photo I was able to use such tools as cloning, dodge and burn, or any other tool I chose to use on a pixel layer I had applied adjustments to. But now, if I apply an adjustment layer to an existing pixel layer then try and use the clone tool etc, it doesn't work unless I first rasterise the layer in question. There are times when I don't want to rasterise the layer simply because I am not done with my editing of that layer.

Is this expected behaviour? If it is then I'm not a fan.

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

These are not my own words but I sure like this quote.

Can you confirm that it really is a (Pixel) layer and not an (Image) layer?

Hi Walt.

Yes. I am referring to pixel layers not image layers.

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

Are you sure you are trying to apply those tools to the pixel layer & not its adjustment layer?

Can you provide a screenshot or video showing the Layers panel with the layer selected, & the tool you have selected in the Tools panel?
