Choosing a cloning style
The effect of dragging the Rubber Stamp tool in an image depends on
the option you choose in the Style pop-up menu of the dialog box.
Clone (aligned)
The first time you drag the Rubber Stamp tool in
the image after setting the reference point, Canvas establishes a fixed
direction and distance from the reference point to the pointer. The
Rubber Stamp tool copies any area of the image that is this distance
and direction from the pointer.
Clone (non-aligned)
Dragging the Rubber Stamp tool always
begins copying the image from the same reference point.
Impressionist
This option smears pixels to create an impressionis-
tic effect. You dont need to set a reference point to use this effect.
Smudging colors
With the Smudge tool, you can pull color from one area of an image
and drag it into adjacent areas. You can adjust the Pressure setting in
the Brushes palette to control the distance that the tool smudges a
color.
Option-click (Mac) or Alt-click
