P: Bleeding color with Healing Tool

Switching from heal to clone helped. But the non-backwards-compatible change is concerning. How many more of my previously edited images will suffer from this?

I have the same issue with LrC 9.3. A image I exported previous to upgrading to 9.3 did not have this issue. I reexported last night after upgrading and got this.
The portion I am replacing (the target) is dark.

I'm seeing a potentially related problem in LR 9.3 - using clone/heal at the edge of an image affects the ENTIRE image and creates a shift in color.

I made a screen recording of this problem: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qt0hlfwxjuipg0v/lr-93-clone-heal-problem.mov?dl=0

I know that this is an extreme example and LR never did a great job at clone/heal jobs like these. I never noticed this before LR 9.3 and then was surprised to find that LR 9.2.1 *also* shifts the tones of the entire image around when I use clone/heal that way:

If this is unrelated please advise and I open a new topic. Thanks.

Yes and Yes.
But Adobe never sets a Time Frame for Bug fixes. Sometimes they get fixed ASAP and other times Never.
An Adobe Employee has already responded to this conversation.

I'm relatively new to this forum and wondering if anyone from Adobe is actually monitoring our comments here. Are our posts here likely to result in any action by Adobe to address the issues? Or are we just complaining to each other? Specifically wondering about forum member Rikk Flohr, who is listed as "Official Rep". Does that mean he an Adobe employee?

I have exactly the the same experience. LR 9.3 - macOS 10.14.6

I'm seeing very odd behavior as well. 

WIth cloning, I'm seeing the destination brightness to be higher than the source. This example is removing dark tree branches.


And heal darkens

Update: I also reverted back to 9.2. Whew! It all works as expected.

YES ... I am dealing with this as well and it is horrible. I'm having to skip over a lot of images for the time being. I do hope Adobe realizes this is a huge issue for a good number of us.

I have same problem. Healing spots on picture edges wont heal them at all. It just makes spot dark and blurry.
