How do I clone format changes for my picture book. I need to add new guides for safe zones and gutters which I wasn't aware of when I created my book which is 32 pages.

[@skincrawlbaby]

Thank you for this clear explanation! But i can't for the life of me figure out how to start painting the cloned area? it just reclones something else? I hope I am making sense haha

Hi, How can I clone from one phot to another? Can I open two photo's at once? I used to be able to do this with ArcSoft Photo Studio

[@MyDesignClass]

Hi, thanks for commenting! Yes this is possible. Open the two images you have in Photoshop, they should appear as two seperate tabs at the top of your screen. If you hold and drag out each tab in turn, they will be open in a seperate windows. You can then use the Clone Stamp Tool from one image onto the other. Hope this helps!

Hi friend! greetings from Chile!
I can't rotate the clone stamp with < or > command, please help me

[@ZiroSpice]

Same bro :(

[@benjaminrivera6357]

@@ZiroSpice Hello friend, I was able to fix it a bit. I changed the language of photoshop to English and set the keyboard. Now the tool rotates but only to the right.

My mac is telling me no matter how many times that i select my layer that I cannot clone stamp because i'm not selecting a layer. But I am.

I would consider a title important not to waste people's viewing time/ad time/etc. by baiting. There are literally thousands of tool/use combinations and clone stamps, more precisely, are a basic concept. I'm just saying help the people wanting the help but not troll for those who would not be baited to see "Clone" stamp usage with which they are familiar already (as I did, watching the intro ad of course to get there). Perhaps, to the point, "The Clone Stamp Changed my Relationship..." would be helpful?
