Clone / Heal brush locking up in LR3 on a I7 Windows laptop

Hello,
This is my first post to the forums so this may have been ask and answered already. (Did not see my specific issue during a quick search) Recently purchased a Windows I7 laptop to upgrade,replace my desktop running Vista. Using LR3 and have started having the clone / heal brush lock up on me. Lightroom stops responding and I have to restart the computer and LR. It does remember where it left off, but it is a major pain. Anyone else experience this?
Thanks,
Chris

This is the Photoshop forum...the Lightroom forum is down the hall...

  • Help! Photoshop CS6 hangs when using brush, clone, healing brush tools etc on Mac

    I am having a big problem when using the new CS6 on my Mac (os x 10.7.4). When switching to a new tool, like a brush, or clone stamp, or healing brush etc, Photoshop hangs for about 20 seconds before resuming. It's not 3rd party plug-ins, because I get the same behaviour when I run using the shift key and third party plug-ins are disabled. It doesn't happen every time, but it happens frequently. I've heard that others have had similar problems... are there any solutions - is it a known bug?

  • Dragging the Clone/Heal brush, like in PSCS.

    OK, am I missing it here.
    I love the Adjustment Brush.
    I really like the permanently adjustable Clone/Heal spot feature.
    But, am I missing it here. Is there still no ability to drag the Clone/Heal tool across the image? A keystroke-add to activate this maybe? You know, dragging the brush, just like PS has done for generations.
    I have to have just missed this in the manual. If so, I apologize in advance.
    But please tell me where. :b

    The reason seems to be that Adobe wants to sell Photoshop in addition to Lightroom.
    The lack of a proper cloning tool is probably the single most reason why people need to do a trip to Photoshop.
    I cannot think of another explanation since a better cloning tool has been requested so many times. Lens correction is a lot harder to do and is now part of LR 3.
    Another indicator for a non-technical reason is that the "better cloning tool" requests are all not answered by Adobe officials.
    Too bad.
    EDIT: Thanks to Victoria who provided a good answers in another thread I created. The most likely technical reason probably is "performance".

  • Freehand clone/healing brush.

    Pretty much the only thing I missed in LR2 is a clone/healing freehand brush instead of only the circular spot one. In addition to the spot removal, I believe this would really be of great use!

    Could be I'm missing a step. I'll write down my process in simple words. ( I like to keep it simple... ;-)
    Bridge and PS6 are open of course. Mini bridge also.
    I have my rendered jpg files open on Bridge and Mini Bridge.
    - I click on the win menu and click on " allow tool recording "
    - In the Acion panel I created a new set with file name Dust Healing and the action is called DH_1 ( dust healing 1 )
    - Record button is on
    - Choose healing brush and use the "mouse" to click ALL dust that has to be removed ( about 10 or so )
    - Stop the recording
    - In MB I right click my 1st pic to reveal it in Bridge
    - in Bridge select ALL 300 images that need to be dust cleaned...
    - In tools I choose --> photoshop - batch
    - in the batch panel I choose the settings i want. Nothing special  ( the play = set Dust Healing - Action = DH_1  / Source - Bridge and nothing further more / Destiantion folder - choose --> folder called Dust heal brush - no override action )
    - I click ok and it does folow all the actions I performed like normal to the pre destined folder
    - when I go and check the pics they are NOT cleaned...
    It's not really rocket science I know, but I did this so many times over that I really wouldn't know what I did wrong...
    Hope this helps to shine a bit more light on my workflow..
    Thanks for any help, if possible. :-)

  • What is the differences between Clone & Healing Brushes?

    Dear Forum,
    I am using PSE 5.0. Could someone explain the difference between the Clone tool and the Healing Brush tool? They both seem to require a source pixel area and a destination pixel area. I understand why the Spot Healing Brush is different, but I am at a loss to see why what the difference is with the Clone tool. Thanks in advance.

    The clone stamp puts down an exact copy of the sampled material. The healing brush blends it in with the underlying area.

  • PE9 trouble with clone/healing brush on a new install.

    Hi,
    I have PE9 installed on my desktop and the program works perfectly and it also was fine on my previous laptop. Due to an accident I had to get a new laptop and that is where the issues have started.
    The Clone and Healing Brush cannot be resized using the [ ] keys. I can work around using the size button on top of the image viewing area but it is much slower doing that.
    Using the Quick Selection Tool I am not able to remove it when finished by pressing the Esc key. I have not found a work around for that. Ctrl-Z will eventually remove it but it also removes any changes made first!!
    There could be other tools that have issues but I haven't found them to this point. Other tools are working normally. I was wondering if it was some sort of keyboard switch not working but I was unable to find anything in the laptop manual. All keys do work properly. It is a Dell Inspiron as was the previous unit.
    I have unistalled the original install of PE9 and reinstalled it. Same problems. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Cyril

    Hi Barbara,
    Thanks for taking the time to help me. I tried your suggestion but no luck. However I found something by "stumbling" around. I changed the keyboard setting to US from Canadian Multilingual Standard (which was the way it came to me) and that fixed the issue with the keyboard shortcut of brackets [ ]  to resize the: Healing Brush, the Clone Tool, the Dodge and Burn tools. They work fine as long as US is selected for the keyboard language.
    As for the use if the Esc key, after working with Adobe we found that the Esc key on my BRAND NEW laptop was not working!! I guess that explains why the Esc key shortcut wouldn't work in PE9. Oh my, you gotta love our new technology!!!!!! That then led me to a couple of hours on the phone with Dell about replacing the system. The joy just continues to flow. :-))))))))))))
    Anyway, Adobe had not heard of the "Canadian Multilingual.. keyboard selection" being a problem for PE9 and those keyboard shortcuts, so if anyone else has this issue, try that! It worked for me. I am definitely tired of the phone after today. Hoping for a smoother day tomorrow. All the best.

  • 2.1 final crashed during clone heal brush

    WinXP Pro SP3, Intel Q6600, 4GB RAM, ATI Card.
    App Error: Event ID 1000
    Faulting application lightroom.exe, version 2.1.0.2, faulting module cameraraw.dll, version 2.1.0.2, fault address 0x0011b9e2.

    I normally get this sort of crash during crop and rotate actions - which I was doing prior to switching to the clone brush.
    So, my guess would be that the Crop/Rotate tool is still the culprit and does something to Lightroom's stability. I would guesstimate that I've had 15-25 crop rotate crashes in LR 2.0, 2.1rc1 and 2.1 combined.

    PS CS5 Extended on Windows
    When trying to use the clone stamp and/or healing brush as soon as I move the cursor from the toolbar over to the image I get an exact copy of the existing layer that moves around the window with the movement of the clone stamp/healing brush.  This just started tonight.  What's causing this weird behaviour?

    It's absolutely notz clear what you are referring to. You have not provided any system info or details about your current settings for these tools. For all we know, this could be a trivial graphics hardware acceleration issue, so as a first step try to turn off those options in the prefs.

  • Clone Stamp & Healing Brush and alignment

    I have PSE9. I am having excellent success in removing collars from the dog pictures I am working on when using the Clone Stamp and Healing Brush tools in combination. The book I am learning from says if I want to select pixels from a single source to deselect the align option. However whether I have the align option selected or not, I am getting the corresponding crosshair sampling pixels as the tools are brushed on the image. I know I can do even better if I can maintain a single sampling source. How do I select and maintain a single sampling source for these two tools? Thanks, Jim.

    Thank you for your response, but forgive me for asking for clarity. I will be removing alot of dog collars. The collar is red and is surrounded by white and black fur. Just to make sure I understand, as I use the two tools, even with the Aligned option deselected, I will need to keep identifying source pixels multiple times as I brush out the collar. There is absolutely no way ((I tried the single click) to select one source and brush wherever I like on the photo and remove the replace the pixels with the one source. Thank you for your patience, Jim.

  • Clone and Healing Brush making blobs

    When using the Clone and Healing Brush tools, everything will work as expected, and then blobs appear on other parts of the picture.  I have noticed that when the Clone puts these blobs on, the + did not appear.  Then I have to use the Undo button and try it again.

    Hi,
    Can you please be more specific about the steps, so that i can understand the issue clearly. Picture would help too.
    Thanks.

  • Clone stamp and healing brush issue

    thanks soooooo much... not sure how i managed to select the 'show overlay' box... but i had. free at last!

  • Healing brush/clone stamp cursor is dark.

    I hope I've overlooked something very simple.  In CS3 on my PC, the circular cursor for healing brush and clone stamp (probably others, too) is always a contrasting color to the underlying image so the circle is always very visible.  With the same preferences set, CS4 always has a very dark, perhaps black circular cursor, so that in dark areas, it completely disappears, making it difficult to select the correct area.
    Just me, my PC or CS4?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the answer.
    I have not mentioned the GPU because the processes I described (as far as I know) are not supposed to be using GPU resources. So far I have not been able to afford the GPU i want which is GTX770, so I use Intel 4600 built in graphics instead. To be honest I find, that 4600 graphics is quite powerful. I am able to play Mass Effect 3 on Full spec on max res without game slowing down. And Windows 7 64bit index score is 7.8 for the 4600 graphics. Overall index score is 7.8 on my PC righ now.
    I'll try to get the Photoshop system info as soon as possible.
    Thanks again.

  • Will upscaling or using clone stamp/healing brush to upsize give better resolution?

    I'm designing a 5.25" square CD cover using a rectangular image and the resolution needs to be min. 300ppi to print .  The artist sent me the art image (painting) from her camera as a jpeg and it goes to photoshop as a large (approx 20" X 24") file at 72 ppi.  To change the ppi to 300 without resampling (I've been told this is best), the image becomes too narrow (4 1/2") and too high (5.9"). 
    I don't want to crop because I don't want to lose content.  I want the image to completely cover the CD cover  And I want to keep the same proportions for certain parts of the image.  So I believe my two best options are as follows:
    1.  Bring the image to 300ppi with the measurements above, protect certain parts of the image on an alpha channel, content aware scale the rest of the image wider to make it square and then resize down a bit for the CD cover or
    2.  Bring the image to 300ppi and then use the clone stamp and healing brush tool or content aware fill (doesn't work so well on this image) to duplicate and extend the sides of the image to widen and square it and then resize down a bit for the CD cover. 
    Does anyone know which of these options will give the best resolution?  Is upscaling more likely to cause pixelization than the other option?  Is there a better way?  Should I do options 1 and 2 to the large 72 resolution image instead of bringing it to 300ppi first and then upscale or clone stamp--would that give better results?
    Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated!

    You've said that you don't want to crop, and you want to cover the entire CD cover. That leaves you with two choices. Extend the short side(s) via cloning, content aware fill, etc. or stretch the image in one direction, either with the standard free-transform or with content aware transform. See what looks best. Your resolution will be fine. You can res up if you need to. The amount you're short will not matter here. Leave room for bleed - usually 1/8".

  • Clone or Healing Brush Tool Creates Ghost Layer or Image - Unusable

    I am using the latest version of Photoshop CS5.5 on a fully updated MacBook Pro.
    I am having issues with the following tools:
    Clone Stamp Tool,
    Healing Brush Tool,
    More details:
    Essentially it "appears" that Photoshop is duplicating the layer and the layers appears to be dragged whenever the cursor is moved. I do not need to be holding down the mouse button for the layer to follow the cursor.
    If I click outside of these tools then photoshop functions as normal, and this extra layer-effect disappears. Clicking back to those tools however causes it to reoccur.
    From testing, when first selecting these tools (on program startup) nothing occurs. It's only when I select the target area (option+click) to use the tools does this problem begin.
    I have checked, and no layer is duplicated. It is also a single image (so not a copy on top of the original).
    I have been using Photoshop for a few years now and familiar with it's interface and functioning. Initially it was working fine on this laptop, however in the last few months this problem has begun and persisted. On other computers it is functioning fine. A complete uninstall and reinstall of Adobe on the laptop has made no change either.
    Please can someone help? Thanks in advance for any assistance or guidance you can provide.

    I am not saying that this will absolutely sort your problem but it is a good place to start.
    Try resetting your Photoshop Preferences. Check out this post for instructions.
