Select Use All Layers to sample data from all visible layers; deselect Use All Layers to
sample only from the active layer.

Set the sampling point by positioning the pointer in any open image and Alt-clicking
(Windows) or Option-clicking (Mac OS).
Note:
If you are sampling from one image and applying to another, both images must be
in the same color mode.

Drag in the image.
Using the pattern stamp tool
The pattern stamp tool lets you paint with a pattern. You can select a pattern from the
pattern libraries or create your own patterns.
To use the pattern stamp tool:
1
Select the pattern stamp tool
, and do the following in the options bar:
•
Choose a brush and set brush options. (See
“Working with brushes” on page 228
.)
•
Specify a blending mode, opacity, and flow. (See
“Setting options for painting and
editing tools” on page 241
.)
•
Select a pattern from the Pattern pop-up palette. (See
“Creating and managing
patterns” on page 252
.)
•
Determine how you want to align the sampled pixels. If you select Aligned, you can
release the mouse button without losing the current sampling point. As a result, the
sampled pixels are applied continuously, no matter how many times you stop and
resume painting. If you deselect Aligned, the sampled pixels are applied from the initial
sampling point each time you stop and resume painting.
•
Select Impressionist to apply the pattern with an impressionistic effect.
2
Drag in the image.
Using the healing brush tool (Photoshop)
The healing brush tool lets you correct imperfections, causing them to disappear into the
surrounding image. Like the cloning tools, you use the healing brush tool to paint with
sampled pixels from an image or pattern. However, the healing brush tool also matches
the texture, lighting, and shading of the sampled pixels to the source pixels. As a result,
the repaired pixels blend seamlessly into the rest of the image.
