P: More Photoshop like clone/healing/content aware brushes

[ratz2]

More Photoshop like clone/healing brushes in Lightroom!
I love retouching in Photoshop, especially with the content aware fill with the healing tool, but Lightrooms tools are clunky. I don't know if there are technical limitations to implementing tools like Photoshop's in Lightroom but it would be GREAT!
I would rather be able to get a baseline retouched image in Lightroom than having to edit in Photoshop and then come back to Lightroom. I would rather just use Photoshop for image alterations.

Have you tried selecting the stick etc and use the Content Aware Fill?

That is my "go to" now

Tip: heal and clone at 200%. 

BTW, I tried the latest tool in PS and it left an outline in the location of the deleted object. Sort of OK because after returning to Lightroom, it was easy to use heal or clone to clean it up. 

Recommendation: ignore that strong statements in this forum about always using heal or clone. In any situation, one will always work better than the other. For my shooting, clone works best about 80-90% of the time while for you, the reverse might be true.

As many photographers, my workflow involves both lightroom and photoshop. For many images the only reason of going from ligtroom to photoshop has to do with the very limited performance of spot removal on lightroom. I was wandering if you are planning on the future to enhance its functionality in order to speed up photographers' workflow.

Thank you for your reply

Just for me to understand. What is for you "limited performance" ? The speed to find a source area ? The quality of the area found ? The performance solwdown when you have 50 of them ?

There's an idea here for you to upvote. I believe it's a similar request Lightroom and Camera Raw: More Photoshop like clone/healing/content aware brushes | Adobe Photoshop .... It has 355 votes but it's almost 10yrs old. It's also "under consideration".

[Stavros Habakis]

the spot removal on Lightroom works only on very special cases and has nothing to do with the functionality of the clone tool in photoshop

Under consideration for 10 years!!?  Surely this needs to be 'addressed'!  I have added my 'Upvote'.

It would be wonderful if with other recent improvements in LR Classic, the development team would improve the spot removal tool to work as well as it does in Photoshop.  There are so many tools that now work as well in LRC as they do in PS.  Somehow, spot removal has been overlooked.

HI, What specifically is not working for you? Can you attach some screen shots? And what operating system and versions of LR and PS are you using?

Content Aware Remove was added to the Desktop Clients in today's release. Check it out!
