How To Use The Clone Tool In Paint Shop Pro

Video Transcript

"Hi. I'm Mike Purdy once again for Expert Village. And we're talking about Paint Shop Pro. The clone tool is very interesting. Let's say we right click here. This becomes the clone source. And then, when we left click, we can proceed to paint her right in close to him. We can move the whole group in. And, you can see to the left there, that 'x' shows you where it's cloning from. Now, notice that the 'x' is going to get to the edge. The edge is right here. So, if we were to re-crop this, we'd have the same picture only they're much closer to him. If we want to put another light on the car, right click here. Make that another clone source. Let's put one right in the center. We'll put three lights on the car. Now, with the clone tool, we can make this grass look a little bit better. We can take this brown spot here. Right click, let's say here. That makes this the clone source. Paint in more of the green area and cover up the brown spot. We could also take this piece of sidewalk out simply by right clicking here, left clicking here, and painting out the sidewalk. You have to be a little careful with it, that it isn't noticeable. If we want to take the date out of the picture, right click here, left click here, and the date is gone. So, that's the clone tool with Paint Shop Pro."
