Hi David,
the retouch tool using a suitable size brush would do this. Select
source pixels just above or below the line by hovering mouse over the
source and using the keyboard shortcut shift + left-click. Then paint over
the line and the retouch tool would usually do a good job. However,
Has anybody found a way to remove thin lines such as telephone wires.
I think it really needs to simply average the data from both sides of
the line but maybe the existing tools can already solve the problem.
David
