In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to use the common touch-up tools.

Spot Healing Brush Tool

The Spot Healing Brush quickly remove blemishes, imperfections or other unwanted elements from an image. Paint over an imperfection you’d like to erase using a suitable brush (brushes can be selected and modified in the options bar). The Spot Healing Brush Tool will automatically try to repair the imperfections.

Healing Brush Tool

The Healing Brush Tool performs a similar function, instead of automatically trying to determine the lighting, shading, and texture, the healing brush tool lets you manually select a image, and then paint over an mistake. To select a source, hold alt and click the desired image. Then paint over the area you wish to replace. Settings such as brush size can be controlled in the options bar.

Patch Tool

Just like the healing brush tool, the patch tool will try to correct lighting, shading, and texture. First draw a selection with any of the selection tools (or the patch tool, which will function as a lasso tool). Then, using the patch tool, drag that selection over the destination you want to use.

Clone Stamp Tool
The Clone stamp tool allows you to paint with a sample of an image.

Select a source area to use for painting by holding Alt and clicking.  Then paint as you would with any other brush.

Blur & Sharpen Tools

The Blur and Sharpen Tools allow us to manipulate edges by making them softer or harder.
