  • After Effects problem with clone stamp tool

    Posted by William King on August 27, 2014 at 5:55 am

    Hi,
    I’ve been using clone stamp tool in Photoshop for years and has no problem with it. But somehow I could never get it work on After Effects. After alt+click to select source I can then click (and hold left mouse button), rub and change the target area as expected but as soon as I let go the mouse button the target area reverts back to original.
    What did I do wrong?
    thanks.

    Did you double click on the layer first to make sure you are only working in that layer, instead of the overall composition?

    The clone stamp in After Effects works across time on individual layers, so you have to add the time dimension to what you are used to in PS.
