Stamp Tool vs Clone/Magic Erase

[ssg_7]

I need to quickly edit a photo by replicating parts of the persons hair to fill in gaps where this is light background. I basically need to make the person's hair look fuller but the clone tool is not an efficient option in my opinion. There are some free photo editing programs that have a stamp tool which allows you to select an area and then just click as many times as needed on the image wherever you need to replicate that stamp. Can this be done in Xara?

Not sure if this would work, but when you use the Clone Tool, and designate an area and clone it, the clone is actually a bitmap patch. If you switch to outlines view you can see the outline. Ctrl click on this patch then press Ctrl v to paste a duplicate. You can duplicate this area as often as you want.

Also, try the Healing Brush (the X band aid in the Photo Tool flyout. It might work.

I tried the clone tool before posting here, but it did not work out too well. Maybe the Healing Brush will work better. Thanks!
