Repair
You can use the Repair tool to remove aws such as:
Skin blemishes
▪
Telephone wires and other unwanted objects
▪
Flash ares from snowakes or windows
▪
Lens scratches and water drops
▪
The Repair tool provides two brushes for removing aws:
Heal
▪ : Use the Heal brush to copy pixels from one area of the image to
another. ACDSee Pro analyzes the pixels in the source and target areas, and
then blends the pixels of both areas for the best match of the surrounding
area. The Heal brush works particularly well with images that involve
complicated textures such as skin or fur.
Clone
▪ : Use the Clone brush to copy the exact pixels from one area of an
image to another, creating an identical image area. The Clone brush is
more eective for images that have strong, simple textures or uniform
colors, because it is more dicult to identify the copied pixels in the
nished photo.
In the example, there are two patches of reected light. We could use the Heal
or Clone brush to remove these reections to improve the image.
