Clone Stamp Tool Panel Rotation Issue

So I’m a photo editor and a part of my job is removing glass glare from photos. The way I do it is I usually have two photos to work with, one with the glare that needs to be edited and an extra photo I can take pieces from.

Anyway, we just updated photoshop and I was going in to stamp an eye out of the extra photo and place it into another photo but I needed to rotate the eye so it matched up with the other image. When I opened the clone stamp panel I clicked on the rotate option and held Shift then moved around the center of my mouse to try and rotate it. But that didn’t happen and it seemed like it was rotating on an axis of the original image rather then just rotating the stamped eye that I needed. What am I doing wrong?? Please help!

I'm also having this issue and it doesn't seem to have been fixed in the latest update. It's causing a few problems to a lot of photogaphers.

There is a bug with the rotate stamp tool. I've noticed that it will resemble at the cursor location, when trying to rotate the source. I was sampling near the center, so it looked like it was rotating where I originally set the source, but you might be right about it rotating around the center of the image. I have reported this to Adobe.

Hi

I am not sure I follow your description.

Using rotate in the Clone Source panel rotates the source image within the clone stamp so that you stamp it rotated.

I don't see any change in behaviour over older versions

Correct. Sorry my explanation was confusing. So I do photo editing and I was trying to take an eye from one image and place it onto another but I needed to rotate said eye so that it matched up with the image. When I opened the clone stamp panel I clicked on the rotate icon and hit shift and used the center part of my mouse to try and rotate it like normal. But this time it seemed to unstamp the eye and take a different part of the original image instead. It wasn’t just the stamped eye that I originally just planned on rotating. I hope that helps
