Clone Tool Not Working


Recommended Posts

Windows 10 Ver 21H1, 64-bit

Graphics Card: Nvidia GeForce 1650 super

Affinity Photo Version 1.10.5.1342

 

The Clone tool stopped working during an edit and I haven't been able to get it back. I've tried restarting Affinity Photo rebooting the machine, turning hardware acceleration feature on and off. All that is happening is that the '+' to define the source stays visible and follows the circle around in 'Aligned' mode(for some reason the circle is not present in the accompanying screen shot but is visible on the monitor) but doesn't alter anything on the image. When it first went wrong, the '+' was actually moving in the opposite direction to the cloning circle. Should I reinstall Affinity Photo?    Thanks

Flow and Hardness are set to 0% set to 100%

Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 
Affinity Designer 2.4.1 | Affinity Photo 2.4.1 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.1 | Beta versions as they appear.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

Just some guesses:

  1. Perhaps you should raise the Hardness and/or Flow values, which are currently at 0?
  2. What Brush do you have selected in the Brushes panel?
