Multi-Point Cloning
The Cloner brush category holds 
variants that use multi-point cloning 
to apply a transformation to the source 
imagery at the time you clone it. To 
take advantage of the cool cloning 
effects you can get with these variants, 
multi-point cloning requires you to set 
multiple source and destination 
reference points.
