Repairing Your Images
You use the Repair brush when the area surrounding the blemish has elements of high
contrast, such as an edge, or when you need to copy texture from the source area and
maintain the color and shading in the destination area.
To retouch an image using the Repair brush:
1 Select an image.
2 It’s a good idea to set the image to appear at full size (100 percent) to prevent image
scaling from obscuring details. To display images at full size, click the Zoom Viewer
button in the tool strip or the Full Screen view toolbar (or press Z).
3 Select the Retouch tool in the tool strip or the Full Screen view toolbar (or press X).
The pointer changes to a target, and the Retouch HUD appears.
