Choosing a cloning style The effect of dragging the Rubber Stamp tool in an image depends on the option you choose in the Style pop-up menu of the dialog box. Clone (aligned) The first time you drag the Rubber Stamp tool in the image after setting the reference point, Canvas establishes a fixed direction and distance from the reference point to the pointer. The Rubber Stamp tool copies any area of the image that is this distance and direction from the pointer. Clone (non-aligned) Dragging the Rubber Stamp tool always begins copying the image from the same reference point. Impressionist This option smears pixels to create an impressionis- tic effect. You don’t need to set a reference point to use this effect. Smudging colors With the Smudge tool, you can pull color from one area of an image and drag it into adjacent areas. You can adjust the Pressure setting in the Brushes palette to control the distance that the tool smudges a color. Option-click (Mac) or Alt-click (Windows) to set the reference point for the area you want to clone with the Rubber Stamp tool Clone (aligned) option Clone (Non-aligned) option Smudge tool
