How to record an action for healing brush/clone tool ?

[ALPHA3]

Hi,

most of you who know photoshop so well, know it's a fact it's impossible to record an healing brush or a stamp tool to apply. Also is knowns the patch tool is the only way to make theses kinds of corrections and record them but the patch tool is not doing a great job as the healing brush, if you know your stuff.

This situation is never the less something many can experience, shooting products and having the same spots, dust and scratch to remove over 600 images is a major challenge.

I know when photoshop cannot record tools or specific task then scripting is the way to go.

Will scripting can open new possibilities to use healing brush corrections over an image to apply over many others doing the same corrections ?

Also I'll post this in the request for new versions or updates coming up in photoshop family page.

(tried to change the state in Adobe Photoshop Prefs.psp, but then remembered that the file is being cached )

You mean to 'Allow Tool Recording' in CS6? If so there are more sadness in opposed to Bridge where you can during session upload new workspace to its Worskpaces folder which content will be automatically reloaded. You can there also reload Startup Scripts folder, so if you had some predefined settings you can change them at any time you want to apply anew to application. With Photoshop you can't do it without its relaunching.

Talking about Bridge pros there's also cons I know in favour of Photoshop. You can make shortcut from Presets or StartupScripts folders of Photoshop to other folder which you keep on some server, but in Bridge that is impossible. You can there only to include in .jsx file the other .jsx file that's on server and which then eventually uses other files if needed.

I feel this link is precisely what I came here to look for. Not even sure what the other answers are suggesting--definitely not installing any other programs! I needed to allow tool recording and that's it!!!
