Elements 13 Spot Healing

Does Elements 13 allow spot healing of Raw/TIFF files, for example dust spots on scans?
If not, what product does?
Thanks, Dan

  • Adobe photoshop elements 9 . i cannot get the circle to appear on clone stamp tool and spot healing

    adobe photoshop elements 9 , i cannot get the circle  to appear using clone stamp tool and the spot healing brush . i`ve tried restating my computer and unloading and loading the adobe disc . but still no good .

    I had this same problem and was searching for answers. I also prefer using a circle instead of crosshairs. I hope you've figured it out by now, but, if you haven't, here is the answer (I am using Elements 9, but, it should work for other versions I think):
    1. Open up Elements Editor, Click on Edit, Click on Preferences, Click on Display & Cursors.
    2. Under Painting Cursors, select Full Size Brush Tip
    3. (optional) - if you want crosshairs within your circle, then also select Show Crosshair in Brush Tip.
    4. Click ok.
    Now use the brush, and it should have a circle to use.
    P.S. Sometimes if you have your Caps Lock key on, that removes the circle as well.

  • Spot healing brush issues in photoshop elements 11

    I am new to photoshop elements 11.  I am trying to use the spot healing brush.  I select "content aware,' "sample all layers," and a brush, but I only get the cross hairs of the cursor, and not the black circle.  My cursor preferences are currently at the default.  I get a black line when I press the mouse key, but nothing changes in the photo.  What am I doing wrong?  Thanks.

    I found that I had some problematic brush settings.  I've developed this checklist for when I have similar issues:
    o  Try changing the px on the brush slider in thespot healing tool
    o  Go to the BRUSH tool (B), change opacity asneeded (probably 100%), go to the brush settings drop down and change thehardness (again probably to 100%)
    o  Check that CAPS LOCK is NOT on
    o  Go to the center icon (lower right by the ?),drop down, then select "reset all Tools," then restart the photoeditor
    o  Then try to reset the editor preferences: Quitthe editor, restart it from the welcome screen while holding downctrlshiftalt, then say "yes" to delete the settings file
    You don't have to do all of these things.  They are just things to check when you have brush problems.  So now I'm working OK.  I hope that this works for you.

  • I have just upgraded to Yosemite and now Photoshop Elements freezes when using spot healing or clone stamp, is there an update due?

    I have just updated to OSX10.10 Yosemite and now Elements freezes when using spot healing or clone stamp.

    If you are using track pad, please use mouse and see if your issue is resolved.
    Moreover, this issue has been resolved in PSE 13. You can give it atry as well.
    Thanks!!

  • Spot Healing tool in Elements 9 causes program crash

    I have installed Photoshop Elements 9 on a computer running Windows 7 Professional. Installation was unevenful, and the program runs without problem until the spot healing tool is selected. Clicking over an image imperfection causes a dark circle to appear, then the whole screen goes pale, the 'busy' circle appears and everything stops.  Machine operation can only be recovered by closing the application.
    I have re-installed twice and the same thing happens each time.
    I cannot find any other problems.
    I'm reluctant to pay for this product until it works!

    " it really looks as if the spot healing tool is defective."
    Same problem here, Windows XP.
    Paid application online, downloaded and installed program, started up and everything is working properly UNTIL
    content aware function is accessed.
    Program terminates by itself and reports and error to Microsoft.
    Anyone knows a solution to this problem?
    In search of a solution I found this thread.....

  • Photoshops elements 9 shuts down when using the Spot healing brush

    Hello all, I just downloaded and installed a trial version of Photoshop Elements 9. Of course I wanted to use that supposedly great "heal" tool. The program seems to work fine, but as soon as I use the Spot Healing Brush, I get the message that something occured and the program has to shut down. It's installed on a Windows XP, SP3 PC. Can anyone shed some light on why this is happening? I appreciate you help. Best regards,

    Hello MTSTUNER,
    Somehow my post showed up twice. Anyway...just updated to 9.01 and problem solved!!
    Thanks so much for your quick feedback. Much appreciated. Will now go into exploring its possibilities.

  • Has anyone notice that the clone stamp spot healing brush in elements 13 is very jerky

    I purchased elements 13 for  MAC and was using it to edit today and the clone stamp and spot healing brush are not very responsive.  Like they are thinking and then respond.
    The controls did not respond immediately. The smoothness of elements 12 is gone!!

    Your probably seeing the clone source overlay.
    Go to Window>Clone Source and either uncheck:
    Show Overlay for no overlay or check clipped to show the overlay
    clipped to the size of the brush.
    There is also a photoshop  macintosh forum for future reference
    (you posted in the photoshop elements forum)

  • I have just downloaded Yosemite but I find that Photoshop Elements 11 does not work properly. If I use a tool like a paint brush or spot healer I cannot paint a full stroke?

    I have just downloaded Yosemite but I find that Photoshop Elements 11 does not work properly. If I use a tool like a paint brush or spot healer I cannot paint a full stroke does anyone else have this issue or know a solution?

    Many thanks that does work. But it now leads to another question is this simply a trackpad issue and if so will it be fixed? I use Elements every day and was thinking I would have to go back to Mavericks.

  • Elements 13 Spot Healing Tool - freezes & leaves black spot on image

    I am using Elements 13 on a Mac, doing substantial spot healing in restoring old images.
    The healing tool regularly seems to have a delay in responding and then leaves a dark spot on the image.  When I 'undo' to remove it, the spot occasionally extends down to the bottom right with a smudged line.
    Is this happening to anyone else?
    Any tips on how to prevent this?

  • Photoshop Elements 9 shutting down when using the Spot Healing Brush

    Hello! I recently downloaded and
    installed the PSE 9 on my PC. Obviously I wanted to check out it's possibil
    ities and especially the Spot Healing Brush. The program seems to work fine until I want to use the Spot Healing Brush
    As soon as I try to apply something to a picture, I get the message something is wrong with "photoshopeditor.exe" and needs to shut down the program.
    That's really annoying and hopefully someone may have the answer and solution why it does this. I run the program on Windows XP (SP3).
    I really appreciate your help. Best regards, CharlesHHH.

  • Spot Healing Brush

    It seems that I must have clicked on something because my Spot Healing Brush does not work like it did before!  When I click on it, I have to click on an area first and cannot change the size of the brush!  At the top it says
    BRUSH - MODE - SOURCE: SAMPLED AND PATTERN - ALIGNED AND SAMPLE ALL LAYERS.
    I want it back to what it originally was - what do I have to do?  I work on photos and use this to touch up cracked photos, etc.

    Sounds like you have the Healing Brush Tool selected instead of the Spot Healing Brush Tool.
    Both tools are grouped in the same slot in the toolbox
    Press and hold on the healing brush icon in the toolbox to reveal the flyout menu.
    You can also press Shift+J to cycle between the two tools.
    What version of photoshop elements?

  • Spot Healing Brush NOT working...

    Has anybody run into this? The spot healing brush is NOT working. I am starting over on a picture I already edited, using this tool a lot (to remove weird reflections, facial flaws, etc. I "reset all tools" to see if that would help and it isn't. I try to use "alt" on the face to set the base, but when I try to actually use the tool, nothing is happening.

    I have used PSE 2.0 in the past and have just installed PS Elements 5.0. I have located the Spot Healing Brush which I have read is to be used for small spot fixes. I have found literature alluding to the 'Healing Brush', a different tool used for fixing larger areas of imperfection. Try as I might I cannot locate this tool on PSE 5.0 Is it not there? Can anyone help? Thanks

  • Spot Healing - Content Aware

    In the past I have used the spot healing brush in content aware mode to remove unwanted items from images.  Recently, instead if "erasing" the item, it is leaving a blurred streak.  Can anyone suggest a reason?
    Using Photoshop CS6 extended - Mac.

    Just purchased and installed Elements 9. Also have purchased Elements 6,7,CS2,CS5.
    The content aware was the first tool I used, just to see if was as good as in CS5, CRASHED !
    Who would have thought that people still operating with single core processors would buy this Adobe product?
    2 thumbs up to your R&D department Adobe! Shouldn't this have been caught in a Beta version?
    How about buying mine back.....................

  • Problems using the Spot Healing Brush

    I've tried to use the spot healing brush on a number of photos but it doesn't work at all - I've watched the video tutorial, but wehen I try and use it nothing happens - it appears to be the only part of Lightroom 5 that doesn't work.
    How can I solve this problem?

    Keith,
    This is what happens when I try and use the Spot Healing Brush:
    I can select spots to heal/delete/duplicate - both single and multiple
    After selection and hitting "done" nothing happens.
    Consequently the spots I jhave tried to heral appear on the exported picture.
    I would expect the Spot Healing Brush in Lightroom 5 to acxt the same as in Adobe Photshop Elements 10 - ie. you see the spot disapear, but for some reason it is not.
    Hence the question, as I am wondering whether I'm doing something wrong-I've wateched the tutorial and it doesn't give me any clues as to whether I am doing anything wrong to erase/remove the spots.

  • Content Aware Spot Healing Crashes

    Just installed trial version. All went OK. Normal healing brush works fine but Spot Healing with Content Aware
    crashes the entire program. Tried different images. Increased memory allocation to 99%. Scratch disks got 6GB to use from. I got 3GB RAM. Running XP SP2. My bet this is a bug in PSE 9. Any suggestions anyone?

    Just purchased and installed Elements 9. Also have purchased Elements 6,7,CS2,CS5.
