"Set a source image first"


Hi everyone, first time post. Need a little help. I'm trying to clean up a black and white document using the heal tool. I understand I need to set a source image, but no matter what I do, Gimp won't allow me to do so. I am hitting control and clicking. I just get options and the error message indicating I have not selected a source image persists. I realize there are a bunch of options that can disrupt this feature, but have not been able to identify anything that is incorrectly configured. I have installed the latest version of Gimp, but that did not resolve the issue. any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm pretty sure the source is the active layer and you select a bit of it using the control key. Maybe a healer wizard (this forum is full of them :) ) will appear automagically and add some more info.

make sure you don't have a selection outside of the area you want to work on. Might be small, so check your selection menu and if 'none' is highlighted you have one. Click on none.
Also it is in 'clone' that you have the options to source from pattern, image etc. Make sure also your alignment isn't in registered mode.

Are you cloning from the same layer or from a different one?

If your image means the site policy is out the window I'm gonna post my image of the Russian president's head exploding :)

At least your image was not slaughtering women and children or trying to overthrow a democratically elected government :)

Many 'newbies' here don't know what democracy is.....they are from authoritarian regimes :)


@everyone

Let's not get into these kind of discussions please.
Please don't digress from the topic at hand,
which is the "healing tool" and it's functionality,
or lack thereof.
