I'm trying to copy a portion of an image and paste it over another part of the image.

I'm assuming the clone tool would be best for this but I can't understand the rather short instructions in the manual.

Do I select the area to be cloned first? (If I do this the selected region disappears when I select the clone icon.) The instructions tell me to select tool size after selecting clone tool. How do I do this? I can't find anything labelled tool size?

One time when I opened mtPaint there was some sort of floating selection box which may have been relevant but I can't find/open this menu any more.

I don't need anything fancy, a rectangular area will be fine.

For extra points I'd like to be able to match colours as the areas concerned are both tiles of the same colour but there is a subtle lighting change/colour cast between them.

Thanks

Thanks wjaguar,

That works fine.

Who said chapters had to be integers? Release yourself from the tyranny of Diophantes.

Might make the index and contents look a bit odd though.

Thanks again,
