It's a feature that I find very useful when I am using Photoshop, although, to
be truthful, I rarely use PS these days.  I maintain my subscription, and I dug
in to actually learn how to use LR (which raised my tolerance to actually give
DT an honest try), but the open source aspect of GIMP, and now, darktable
(which, for me is far superior to LR in actually manipulating images) has always
appealed to me.  Additionally, Linux has always seemed to just run with less
fuss than Windows.

Back to that cloning feature, it's very useful, but, otherwise, I find the GIMP
implementation of cloning to be the cat's meow.  Perspective cloning, IMO, is
just so intuitive and useful, straight forward and easy to use.  I love it.

OK, I shall descend from my soapbox, now.

I've wished for something like that for a long time.

Now there's an idea - an option so once the clone source is set, instead of / 
in addition to the normal brush outline it shows a translucent preview of the 
source region (masked by the brush shape).

Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth.

Alright, I hit reset for all parameters in this dialog, and that seems to have
done the trick.  I have always thought Gimp's implementation of the cloning tool
(especially its perspective cloning) was better than anything else out there.
Working in 2.10 this evening reinforces my opinion.  The only thing that I would
wish for is PS's anticipatory view such that, when trying to align during
cloning (say a row of barbed wire), you see where your destination pixels will
fall before you commit to the clone.  Absent that very nice feature, I would
wish for a way to undo a destination click such that the source remains in place
so that you could click several times by trial and error to fine tune position
of the source pixels.

This is an issue with which my concerns are mild.  The clone tool as is does a
wonderful job.

Ubuntu must have pushed 2.10 out to me in an upgrade, as I had been running a
2.9x version.

It was a pleasant surprise to open Gimp and find 2.10 installed.  Seems to run
nicely on my Ubuntu 18.04 setup.

Thanks and congrats to the developers.

[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.10 clone brushes appear as X

2018-05-28 Thread Carusoswi
Both my regular clone brush and my perspective clone brush appears as an X.  In
perspective clone, I cannot seem to select a source.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
