Using new LR5 healing Spot tool on a cropped photo

Hi all,
I haven't seen much mention of this, but it drives me nuts -- wondering if I'm alone...
When I use the LR5 healing Spot tool on an already-cropped photo, it often picks a healing spot from outside the croped region.
That's fine, but there is no simple way to then adjust it -- it seems I have to: 1) copy the crop, 2) reset the crop, 3) make the adjustment, and 4) paste the crop.
It seems there needs to be a way to "view the full canvas" from within the Spot too (I'd also like to be able to "view the full canvas" from within the new straigten crop tool).

Hello
You can us the '/' key to force a resample and if you are lucky it will bring the sample area into view.

  • New LR5 healing tool a retrograde step?

    Lightroom 5: all good except for the healing tool. Unless I misuderstand.
    While it is more flexible, it is much slower to use: in particular, you cannot in one click and drag choose
    where to fix
    and where from
    while viewing the results.
    All in one click and drag!
    That now takes multiple steps:
    Click on the error
    Uncrop, often (the auto-sample is taken often from outside the crop!)
    Now click on the circle, and then SHIFT-DRAG.
    That seems very much a retrograde step, one wghich will definitely cost me hours of lost productivity. A shoot edit, maybe 3 hours in the past, will take me four hours this way. 33% less productivity after an upgrade?
    Please tell me I am mistaken and there is a way to drop a circle and drag to a sampling poiunt all in one action as before.

    Here is some help documentation on the KBSC http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/help/enhanced-spot-removal.html.

  • 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?

  • Using external editor PSE to crop photos for iPhoto

    For years I have used PSE (Photoshop Elements) as the external editor in iPhoto (iPhoto 8 - 7.1.5).  Recently I upgraded to a new machine which has iPhoto 11 (9.4.2) installed.  I decided (amongst other things) to crop a photo in PSE using the "No Restriction" option.  When this photo was re-opened in iPhoto, iPhoto rendered it as a "stretched" photo - like it was trying to force it to the original photo ratio.  Obviously all the dimensions looked weird in this "stretched" photo! As an experiment I reverted the cropped photo to "Original" and then performed the exact same crop within iPhoto itself.  No problem. The photo was rendered exactly as you'd expect.  So why does the new iPhoto not seem to handle externally cropped photos properly?  Is there a solution? (other than forking out another 50 quid for the latest version of PSE - which may or may not have the same issue!)
    Yes I'm using an old version pf PSE (6 in fact) but everything else (at least everything else that I've tried!) seems to work OK.
    Thoughts anyone?

    I may be preaching to the choir here but there may be some PSE tips here that might help, particularly regarding PSE's preferences:
    Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
    1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
    2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop.  When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done. 
    3 - however, if you get the navigation window
    that indicates that  PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file.  You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
    This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
    NOTE: With Photoshop Elements  the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
    I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.  In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
    Note:  to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

  • PSE 9 crashes when I use the Spot Healing Brush tool

    When I use the Spot Healing Brush tool PSE9 crashs completly. Is it a bug? In the older version 8 I had no problem.
    I use WIN XP SP2, Intel Pentium 4, 3 Ghz, GPU: NVIDIA Geforce FX 5700, DirectX 9.0c 4.09.00.0904.
    I tried it also on another PC with WIN7 and it caused the same problem.
    Thanks for any adivse

    I know this post doesn't really help you guys, but I'm also using PSE9 on a Win7 Intel Quad Core Dell computer and the spot healing brush works fine. I only offer this post to indicate that it apparently is not a universal bug in PSE9. Perhaps an Adobe expert can jump in here and help. I can only offer that in Preferences I do have the RAM dialed up to 80%, but I don't think this is related to your problem.

  • Spot healing brush tool luminosity not working as expected?

    I have a question about the content aware spot healing brush tool:
    The normal and replace mode work just fine as expected... the color mode does indeed a fine job fixing the color cast of i.e. small green or purple lens flares, by picking up the surrounding color.
    The next mode after color, called luminosity, should work in the same fashion: it should pick up the surrounding brightness (luminosity), and adjust the relative brightness of the area to be patched (i.e. reduce the brightness of a small lens flare, and preserve the texture underneath).
    Instead, luminosity doesn't work much different than the normal mode, it creates a new texture (based on content aware or surrounding area), and thereby destroying the original texture, instead of just fixing the local brightness.
    My question for Adobe: is this behavior intentional? or was the luminosity mode "overlooked" by accident?

    Here are some examples of how the brush is working in a real world example:
    As I have mentioned, normal, replace, and color work exactly as expected. color in LAB mode works even better than in RBG mode.
    what is not working as (at least by me expected) is luminosity mode (even if the color mode brush is used first). I thought/had hoped for that the luminosity mode would work some magic without creating new textures (the color mode is only very very lightly adding a new texture).
    I just wanted to hear what the logic behind this mode is... (and possibly find a 1-2 click tool to fix those lens flares.)

  • Photoshop CC and 2014 spot healing brush tool causing blue screen on windows 8.1

    Hi,
    The problem is when I'm using spot healing brush tool soon as apply it it causing fatal error on my windows. I have all suite up to date.
    please advice.

    First thing to do is check you have all the latest device drivers for all your devices and all windows 8 updates. Printer drivers, Display Drivers, Network drivers etc.   It is not possible for an Application program like Photoshop.exe to cause a Blue Screen. However Applications use devices and device drivers are able to do things application programs can not do.

  • Spot healing brush tool problem

    I am having a lot of problems with the spot healing brush tool.  I am getting asked to use the alt key to pick a spot.  It should not be doing that.  It acts as if I were using the clone stamp tool, which I do not want to use now.  Can anyone help me with this?  My software is Photoshop CC and is up to date.

    Click and hold on the healing brish on the Toolbar.  You have the Healing brush selected, and you want the 'Spot healing brush'

  • Spot heal/clone tool problem

    Hello, I thought when I upgraded to LR4 that my problems with the spot tool would be a thing of the past.  Unfortunately they are just as bad if not worse.  I run on a Windows 7, 64 bit, 2.6 GHz, 6 GB RAM.  Using the spot tool to clone or heal slows things down considerably (though I do notice a little slowing in general with version 4).  The longer I use the tool, the worse it is.  I start to get strange partial square shapes under the spot when I try to modify it in any way (e.g. move it a bit or change from heal to clone).  I then need to delete the spot and start over to get rid of it.  Results get uneven, and eventually the program freezes, with a clenched fist for the cursor, and I can't move any spots, or even click anything in the program (though the cursor does move).  Any ideas what the problem could be?  I do not want to use the tool at all now, which given how important it is, begs the question why am I even using this program to edit photos?

    Not many, maybe 8-10 or so.  But it depends on how much I've been doing two things at once, how fast I'm moving, how long I've been working (longer I'm on it, more chance of it happening).  Seems like my computer can only deal with Lightroom when I use it at a certain, measured pace.  And I thought I was comfortably over the minimum requirements regarding speed.  Plenty of room on my hard drive (catalog on a different drive than program).  My antivirus isn't doing anything at the time, no other programs working at the time, just LR.  One thing, the fan is working OT when it happens, but I have the laptop on a cooling pad.  Seems to be getting behind and/or running out of RAM when it happens.

  • Spot Healing Brush Tool stops working in CS6 on Mac

    Hello:
    Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this.  While working in the Spot Healing Brush Tool in CS6 on my iMac (Mountain Lion) , the tool stops working. I use it a few times on a busy BG, and then it goes away. The brush turns to a cross, and the tool no longer works. Reseting the tool, or All Tools, does not fix the problem.
    Please let me know if there is a fix for this problem.
    Thanks,
    Richard

    BTW:
    This is also hapenning when I use the Patch tool.  It "Eventually" comes back, but I loose it again after a fix or two. Can't figure this one out. Need help.

    Marko,
    I know I answered you through support, but for the benefit of the newsgroups
    When using Oracle, you must run the sql scripts provided. The
    insert-pzsamples-oracle.sql script is included in the create-p13n-oracle.sql
    scripts. This script includes inserting information into the tables that are
    required for creating new portlets. In particular, inserts to the
    WLCS_SCHEMA table and inserts to the Meta Data tables (*MD*) are required.

  • Proper Use of the Healing Brush & Patch Tool

    When using the Patch tool and Healing Brush tool to smooth skin, I cannot seem to avoid "grabbing" dark coloring from the clothing as I get close to the edge of the skin.  I have the sample source anchored in the middle of an area far away from the clothing edge, but if I get close to the clothing it pulls from that color and "bleeds" into my healing area.
    I've tried to view tutorials on the Healing Brush, but haven't found anything that addresses this specific condition, just standard "how to" stuff.
    Thank you for any advise and direction here.

    I'll give you a little trick as you can see the preview of the are you are patching it is possible to do a patch clone sort to speak.
    it works like this.
    http://mysite.verizon.net/wzphoto/patch.mov
    if the angle of the clothes do not match you can copy a section and paste and then rotate the section to match and use it as the source for
    the patch tool.
    BTW the idea is that you have to include the contrasting areas so the do not cause a blending. even if the darker area needs no repair.

  • Using the healing brush tool

    Anybody able to give me a simple explanation of how to use the healing brush tool to retouch  photograph?

    I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium...  And I'm using Photoshop Elements 10 with a Wacom Intous 4 tablet and pen.    I noticed this behavior right after a forced reboot from a Microsoft update yesterday.  I was editing a pic when it rebooted.  
    Now, the behavior only manifests itself within Photoshop Elements when I use tools that use reference points such as the clone tool or healing brush.  It's a trailing dot that seems to echo the reference point; which eventually catches up to place itself right under the tip as I make a stroke.   I can't really see what I'm doing, so I end up making a big mess of things on my pics.  This also occurs using my logitech mouse...   Check the mouse settings as well, and it not using any trail options.
    Called Wacom and they had me uncheck "use microsoft ink" from within the Wacom properties.  They identified the problem as the "ripple effect."     I've disabled the "press and hold" feature the "pen and touch" options in windows,  disable the Tablet PC Input service, and made edits to "TurnOffPenFeedback"  in, both, the local machine and local user in order to disable it.  So far, nothing has worked.   If it makes a difference, I noticed that every time I edit the local user registry entry, it enables itself after each reboot.   Haven't fingered the cause of this yet.     Please let me know if you have any other ideas.  Thanks!
