At first I had a background with a layer above it -- I then merged the
layers and the layer box shows just one, "Background".

It wouldn't work with either of these.

I've also just noticed that, selecting "Aligned" and Ctrl-clicking
near the spot I want to cover, when clicking with the clone tool, the
cursor showing where it is to get the colour from is far away from
where it should be.

I'm assuming you have a single layer in your image, but you might not, if the 
source layer is empty it won't let you paint.

[Gimp-user] "No Entry" sign and the clone tool

2001-11-25 Thread Chris Martin

I am trying to use the clone tool.

Following GUM, I select a brush, select the clone tool, control-click
on the part of the photo I want to copy and then move to the part I
want to modify -- the clone tool is always accompanied by a "No Entry"
sign and will do nothing.

It is a black and white photo, I have changed from grayscale to RGB,
merged layers, saved the image, restarted gimp, everything I can think
of but still a "No Entry" sign and no cloning.

Does anybody know why?
