Heal and clone

Remove dust spots, blemishes and distractions.

If you’ve used another editor: this is spot removal, Q to open it, with a visualize-spots view on A. Immage picks the source for you, and you can move it.

Open it with Heal on the rail, or Q.

Removing a spot

• Click a spot to cover it with a round patch.
• Drag along a line, such as a wire, to paint over it.

Immage finds a source for the patch: the area that best matches the spot’s surroundings. It shows as an outline linked to the spot.

• Drag the spot to move it.
• Drag the source to move just the source.

Heal or clone

• Heal: copies texture from the source, matched to the spot’s color and light. Best for most spots.
• Clone: copies the source exactly as it is. Best where heal blends in the wrong tone, such as along an edge.

Settings

• Size: 0.2-20% of the photo.
• Feather: 0-100, how soft the patch’s edge is.
• Opacity: 0-100.

With a spot selected, the settings change that spot. They are also kept for the next one.

Delete spot removes the selected spot; Clear all removes every spot.

Visualize Spots

A, or Visualize spots, shows the photo as an edge map where dust stands out. Threshold sets how much shows.
