[@stevenlitvintchouk3131]

I didn't even know what the Sources panel did until now! Thanks!

Thank you, James. I frequently use the Clone Brush and you have just expanded my horizons.

Thank you. The source panel was completely unknown to me. Great discovery

Global cloning is awesome. Cheers

As always, excellent presentation of the tools in AP. And it dawned on my while you were cloning in the people from one source to your target image, you can use the same technique to sample from where there are no people and then clone them out. Thanks for the video.

When you first started with the chap and two women I thought you were going to remove all of the people. Great video thanks.

absolutely useful as always!! You are so clear in your instruction.....

A small tip for getting it aligned like you're doing at around 7:19 is to indeed increase the brush width but to then just click once you have it aligned. That way you won't have to worry about moving your mouse or pen while decreasing the brush size. Then once you clicked, the clone point is set and you can just press ctrl+Z to remove the way to big thing you just cloned and start painting with a small brush. The clone point will be remembered. I could probably explain this with less words but I'm not a native English speaker :)

Referring to the second part with cloning between images, why oh why cannot Affinity enable what Corel PaintShop Pro has done so much better for years? There one can open 2 (or more) images side-by-side on screen. An excellent base for inter-image comparison of course. But importantly one can directly clone between the images without all the faff you use in your demo here. I've been using Affinity Photo for 4 years and this is a major pain for me after previously using CPSP for 10+ years.

You can open two or more images side by side in Affinity Photo, but you have to drag them out of the main window frame so that each image "floats" separately. Then you can position the floating images side by side or have one overlapping the other somewhat.
