View 2 RepliesI waited months to update to 3.6 because I finally had Lightroom running well on my machine. Previously versions would hang on the spot healing brush to the pointed I'd have to shut down using task manager. The problem comes when I've edited a file in an external editor and I am working on the tif file that has been imported back into Lightroom. The spot healing brush just does not want to work. This continues to happen even when I close Lightroom and go back to the file later. This really bums me out because it just crushes my workflow!
I have a new problem too. It could be I hit something somewhere to cause the following behaviour. When I am working on an image with the adjustment brush, the adjustment point disappears. It doesn't show up so if I want to change the brush parameters the point isn't there to click on an make active so I can adjust the parameters again. This just started since I upgraded to 3.6. I believe I was using 3.4 before and I never had this issue.
My Spot Healing Brush Tool wont drag at all, yes I have tried resetting the Tool. I am wondering if its because my Graphics card is integrated(Laptop)?
View 1 Replies View RelatedBoth of subject tools often 'go wild' on me when I am working on an image. Either tool will race across an image in a straight line and leave either a cloning or spotting mark [straight line]. I suspect this has something to do with insufficient memory. However I have 4 GB RAM and am not running any other big program while doing the cloning/spotting. Even if I 'give it some rest' this strange behavior will continue. Any help would be greatly appreciated! christian ps. Attached is a tiny sample, circled in red.

I'm pretty sure I followed his tutorial exactly but it did not work satisfactorily. Are there any other tweaks I should be using to remove these cables and replace them with the background details?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am experiencing two problems. One is the tool icons in Photoshop are disappearing on the screen. I move the cursor and see nothing on my screen.
The second problem is at other times the proper tool icon and function is not showing up and working. I select for example the pen tool and the hand tool icon show up and the function works as the hand tool not the pen tool?
How to get the most out of the Spot Healing Brush? I'm using it in Photoshop CC to repair old photos. It tends to work about half the time the way I would want it to. Frequently, I have to back out "fixes" and either try again from a different direction or switch to the clone stamp tool.
So, how does one get the most out of the Spot Healing Brush?
I am working with PSCS6 CC. When using the healing brush in content aware or proximity mode the tool generates artifacts.
What is causing this behavior and how can it be prevented?
Here's a before and after shot. I recently upgraded from CS3 and the spot healing brush always worked great. Now when I use it, whether or not I use content aware fill, it leaves a blurred residue of what I was trying to remove. As an aside, the Content Aware Fill leaves a similar residue, enough to make it effectively unusable.
I have included a sample photo of the spot healing brush problem. Left side is before and right side is after. I just wanted to get rid of the electrical wall socket. You can see that it's not working. I am running windows 8 in a 64-bit environtment and running the 64-bit version of Photoshop CS5.5

I've been trying to remove wrinkles using the spot healing brush in CS2.
I have changed the wrinkles into what looks like scars or burns
I have also tried to remove horizontal neck lines and get the same "scarring" effect.
I can't use the spot healing brush. Whenever I try, a little notice appears at the bottom of my screen that says there are new capabilities available for the spot healing brush "click here". I've clicked and all it was is a tutorial video. I've watched the video numerous times, but the notice still will not go away. How do I get the use of my spot healing brush back?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm on Win 7, 64 bit, and CS6 (released). I've got the Spot Healing brush active and I Shift + Right-click to bring up the Blending options. I cannot change to Luminosity. It will change in the drop down box on the tool bar however.
When I first noticed, it was Lighten that it wouldn't change to. I've rebooted the PC a couple of times and now it seems to be the Luminosity mode.
I'm using CS6 and while using my new wacom small tablet, I noticed that no matter what I do, I can't disable the pressure sensitivity for the "Spot Healing Brush". All my other tools i can. I'm not confortable using the pressure sensitivity to make the brush larger so i just prefer to turn off the sensitivity entirely.
View 5 Replies View Relatedwhy the healing brush is so useless on stroking a path. It always (apparently no matter what setting you use) creates a soft blurred splodge as opposed to - well - what its supposed to do.
I've just spent 2 days creating what is (IMHO) a totally awsome action that highlights moles and skin blemeshis (and does so by finding details, not by colour or brightness so should work on most skin tones), creates a path based on them, and then totally fails to patch them because the implementation of healing brush stroking on paths is so rubbish. THe path created is quite complex of couse, and extends over most of the image, its not like stroking a single path where spot healing appears to work.
THe nearest thing I've got is to create a pattern based on a clean patch of skin and the to use the healing brush set to a pattern. This works OK for this person, but will be rubbish on someone else. I've also tried using the patch tool, which is also no good. Content aware fill also produces the soft blurry splodge.
the 2 screen grab on the right are created by manually using spot healing brush the combination of path creation and stoking with the healing brush could offer up SO much functionality I think adobe should investigate. I've got at least 3 actions now that are waiting to go out the door that will save retouchers hours and hours of boring spotting work. It uses frequency separation, too.
I ust PS CS5, Windows 7 64 bit, i7 processor, 16 gb of ram
My spot healing brush doesn't drage. The healing brush and all other brushes work normally. Before yesterday it was woking normally. The brush will make a round patch the size of the brush, but I can't paint with the brush.
My spot healing brush stopped working. After releasing the mouse, it blinks and remains black. If I do another spot, the first spot is fixed and the second one is black. And so on. This began after updating to 12.0.4 x64 (Mac 10.7.3)*
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded to CS6 64 bit under Windows 7. I used content aware fill and the spot healing tool on CS5 under XP with no problems. Now under CS6 they leave a smudge. For example, if the is a spot on a vein of a leaf, now, instead of removing the spot and filling in the line of the vein I just get a smudge the size of the spot healing brush.
Content aware fill now leaves a smudged and obviously poor result.
When I use the spot healing brush, streaks or lines occur? How do I stop this. It usually happens when my picture has a strong contrast in colors between the background and the person's clothing or face..
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have been using PSE 11 (version 11.0) for several months on 27" iMac with OS X Lion (version 10.7.5). One of my favorite tools is the spot healing brush with content aware option. For some reason it suddenly stopped working! The black circle doesn't appear when I click my mouse. I have reset the tool to no avail.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm doing a lot of work cleaning old files up, and trying to stay in Content-Aware mode of spot healing brush. Switching back and forth from Lightroom, I usually find the radio button has switched back to "Create Texture" mode, which I do not want. I leave it in Content-Aware, but it switches on its own. Can't find any way to set it to stay where I put it.

Basically, a substantial portion of the time I hit "Q" I do not get the circle for spot heal. The cursor disappears and I cannot see anything. However, the tool is working, but I can't see its size. If I turn it off and back on I get the crosshairs and thus I can click and hide spots, but I can't see when I grow/shrink it, and I can't see when I move it.
I've seen this with all of the Lightroom 4.1 versions (RC1, RC2, and now GM) on OS X 10.7.4. This is on a Mac Pro with ATI graphics.
i was hoping and waiting for better healing/spot removal brush in LR4... and now i am disappointed . should i wait for LR5?

Is there any tool in "6" that will have the same function as the healing brush - or is it hiding out somewhere in 6?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got a bit of a problem. My compact camera has developed a tiny hair either on the chip or between the lens and the chip. It only shows when the a zoom is used but it's very annoying.
Is there any way of doing an automated batch to make the healing tool heal the same pixels on each image? The hair is in the same spot each time.
I think I asked a month or so ago if the healing brush tool was available in 6.0 and was told it was not ... that it became a part of 7.0. So, since I only have 6.0 to work with, can someone suggest which editing tools I might use in place of the healing brush tool? My granddaughter has an assignment to use the HBtool to repair an old photo as part of an assignment. I can clone or use other tools to make the repairs, but am wondering if anyone has specific suggestions for what tool will make repairs that will look most like they were done with the healing brush?
