And there are plug-ins in the registry that automatically make incremental backups. My first guess as to the the cause of the corruption is hardware. A full or failing disk, corrupt RAM, etc. Or I've had issues with saving to flaky shared storage. The prognosis is not good if it's any of these. What version of GIMP are you using (see Help-About)? What operating system? Are you saving to an internal hard drive, or external storage? Can you post a link to the XCF online somewhere? Chris I did make a back up...but it still cuts out about five hours of my work...i guess if there isn't any way to fix it then i will just work over night to finish...lame! You know, if you have that much time invested into the work, it would make sense to back it up a bit more often. Perhaps however, having been affected by this, you could file a bug report/feature request for a safer saving mechanism? ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Use the Clone tool, enable 'Sample merged' and use a soft brush for cloning. 3. Select the source region. It should have the same or a very similar color and structure as the destination region. 4. Clone the dust spot away. Use the Healing tool and layer opacity to refine your work. 5. To make the outline softer, you can blur it with the Gaussian blur filter. To undo some cloned parts and uncover the original image use the Eraser tool on the upper layer. All this is too complicated. Just use the Healing Tool. Hi Elmer, your right in the point that the Healing tool has just one step while the other way as five. It's a very easy and smart way, but doesn't offer a possibility to edit or revert the changes later at any arbitrary time. Many roads lead to Rome and I described the nondestructive one. It has the benefit of being able to edit or revert the work later (see steps 4 and 5), even after having gone a few steps further in the meantime. As you stated correctly, it has more steps and thus looks more complicated. So, David now knows three methods (the Healing tool, the nondestructive way and content-aware fill) and it's up to him to prefer one or to decide for each scenario. Hopefully GIMP will combine the power of nondestructive editing with the ease of using just a single tool one day. With respect to the roadmap it's yet a future milestone, but the first steps are currently being gone with the GEGL port.
