Jagged edges when using rotate clone source

[tunners]

I use rotate clone source (a lot) for retouching/editing old/new photographs and has worked fine up until now (last update). Now, when I rotate the source a few degrees and use the clone tool (healing brush etc.)  there are jagged lines (it doesn't matter what scale i'm at, the jaggedness appears. A rotated layer is fine however (but slower). Any ideas?

Hi there,

That shouldn't be happening, could you please let us know the version of Photoshop and the operating system you're working with?

What's the resolution (Width & Height) of the document you're working with?

Could you please try deselecting "Use Graphics Processor" located in Photoshop's Preferences > Performance, then relaunch Photoshop and let us know if it helps?

Also, please try creating a new document and let us know if the issue persists.

You may try some troubleshooting steps mentioned here and let us know how it goes. https://helpx.adobe.com/in/photoshop/kb/basic-troubleshooting.html

Unchecked "Use Graphics Processor" -  no change

Reset tool(s) - no change

Reset preferences  -  fixed (but now stuck with 'Home screen' BAH!!)

Cheers Sahil.

Glad to know the issue got fixed by resetting the preferences of Photoshop.

Try unchecking Photoshop > Preferences > General > Auto Show Home Screen.

And please include the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Clone Source, Options Bar, …). 

What is the Photoshop > Preferences > General > Image Interpolation setting?
