Issue with the clone stamp tool

Hi there

 

I have noticed that with Photoshop 2020 my clone stamp tool is not behaving properly.  If I try to clone something, it will clone for a second or so and then stop.  To continue cloning I need to first release the left button of the mouse and re-click it.  To clone something large might take several clicking of the mouse.  Is anyone else having this issue with the clone stamp tool?  Is it bug that I need to wait for an update? Thanks in advance

Good afternoon!

I hope the topic is not closed yet and you will see my message. We faced the same problem: additional stripes are formed when using the cloning tool.

When using the "cloning" tool, I take the source, start drawing and the moment I release the mouse, an additional strip appears with a bias in the upper left part of the monitor, but I did not draw it.

The same thing happens with the losso tool.

The problem appeared just a day ago, and before that, everything was fine. Photoshop is licensed, updated without problems. Tried reinstallation - did not help. Did a reset, brushes - did not help. Tried and your method specified above - also did not help.

Please tell me, did you manage to solve the problem or maybe there is another way?


Sounds like a known bug, you may have to roll back for the time being.

What are the Tool’s settings? 

Please post a screenshot including the pertinent Panels (Options Bar, Brush Settings, …).
