You were spot on - that's exactly what I was doing wrong. Thanks for the
detailed reply!

How do I get past this?


I think you are still holding the ctrl key down.  Once you set the
starting source using ctrl-click, let up on the ctrl key.  The
message should change to "Click to clone (try Shift for a straight
 line, Ctrl to set a new clone source".  Move the mouse to where
you want to clone and click, then drag with the button down to clone
an area.

[Gimp-user] Clone Tool Stuck on "Set a source image first"

2019-10-01 Thread Melvis
I'm using GIMP 2.10.8 on Windows 10...

The clone tool doesn't seem to work. With my image open and the clone tool
selected, the message directly under the image window reads "CTRL-click to set a
new clone source". When I do so, the message changes to "Set a source image
first" and I can go no further. The clone tool window on the bottom left side
has "image" selected under "Source".

How do I get past this?

- Thanks!
