150 Corel Painter X3 Getting Started Guide
Setting up the clone
To begin the cloning process, you need to select the source image that you want to clone.
Corel Painter then duplicates this source image and embeds the image as a clone source
in the clone document. The clone document appears in a new document window, and
the clone source is displayed in the Clone Source panel. You can also open the source
image in a separate window, which allows you to paint on the canvas with the source
image displayed by its side. A crosshair cursor appears in the Source Image window to
identify which area of the source image you are painting.
The area that is painted in the clone document window (left) is identified by
a crosshair cursor in the Source Image window (right).
Working with the source image
The clone source image is best described as a snapshot of a selected image at a given
time. Once the clone is created and the clone source image is embedded, the
relationship with the original document is broken. However, you can edit the embedded
clone source image to change its appearance. For more information, see “Editing,
updating, saving, and exporting clone source images” on page 157.
Once the initial clone is created, you can add additional source images to the clone
document, which allows you to clone colors from different sources. For more
information, see “Working with multiple clone sources” on page 155.
When the clone document opens in the document window, you need to clear the canvas
to begin painting in the clone by using the painterly technique of your choice. For more
information, see “Painting in the clone” on page 159.
