I have selected the inpainting brush and clicked and dragged over several portions of the image, then a loading bar shows up and disappears when loaded. However, nothing in the slightest changes about the image. There is no red indicating the area where i have clicked and dragged as i have seen in the tutorial videos. Any help would be great. Thanks. This is a raw image that I have developed and am further processing.

Please make sure that you have a "Pixel" layer selected in the layers panel before using the inpainting brush.. 

 

Also, make sure you do not have a raster selection active (Select -> Deselect)..

 

Hope this helps,

Hi Andy,

It does not help me.

I have a pixel layer selected and I can see what I try to hide in it but I have no idea what you mean by 'raster selection' or where to look to select or deselect it.

Since this function was demonstrated in the beginners tutorial I think this should have been mentioned.

For my first steps after purchasing the software I admit I am slightly discouraged.

Cheers,

K

Hang in there: the inpainting brush works really great in many cases.

 

Can you try it on a photo that hasn't any layers added yet, just as a test? Maybe remove some branches from a blue sky or a window from a white wall or something simple like that, just to see how it works. What you mark with the inpainting brush should get marked in red and then after a short time disappear.

 

I use the inpainting brush a lot. When it doesn't have any effect I check in the 'layers' tab in the right hand column if I have the background layer activated (see screenshot) - I'm not actively working with layers yet, but some of the adjustment tools add a new layer which then is the active one.
