286 Corel Painter User Guide
In some cases, you don’t have to place source points. When you clone source files and
patterns, Corel Painter places source points for you in each corner of the document.
These corner source points are ideal for perspective cloning with 4-point tiling. If you
don’t want to use these default source points, just move them or set source points of
your own. For more information, see “Filling with Transformed Cloning” in the Help.
To set the number of reference points
1 Choose Window menu > Brush Creator.
2 On the Stroke Designer page of the Brush Creator, choose Cloning.
3 Choose the transformation you want from the Clone Type pop-up menu.
The number that follows each option in the Clone Type pop-up menu indicates the
number of required reference points.
To set source reference points
1 On the Brush Selector bar, click the Brush Variant selector arrow and choose a
multi-point cloner brush variant.
2 Hold down Option (Mac OS) or Alt (Windows), and click in the source area for
each reference point required.
3 Points appear in the source image as you click, along with identifying numbers.
You can use other cloner brush variants by selecting a new variant and setting
a clone type. Refer to “Selecting a Clone Type for Multipoint Cloning” on
page 282 for more information.
You can reposition reference points by holding down Option (Mac OS) or Alt
(Windows) and dragging the points to their new position.
To set destination reference points
1 Select the destination document.
2 On the Brush Selector bar, click the variant selector arrow, and choose a
multi-point cloner brush variant.
3 Hold down Option + Shift (Mac OS) or Alt + Shift (Windows), and click in the
destination area for each reference point required.
