Defined pattern is not covering the whole image

Jul 24, 2012 4:40 PM

I want to use the Pattern Stamp tool to clone a painting effect from a photograph to a new layer.

 

What I am finding is that the pattern is perfectly replicated on the new layer except that a thin strip of the sky is appearing at the bottom of the image.  It seems like a strip of the top of the image is appearing at the bottom of the new layer version

 

I am selecting the whole area of the source image before defining the image as a pattern.  It is not a problem of the "Aligned" setting - that is always selected.

 

Grateful for any ideas as to what is going on.

 

Thanks..

    Does the layer with the painting effect have transparency in the layer at the top or bottom or is the effect layer smaller in size than the document bounds?

     

    If your using the pattern stamp on another image and the image has bigger pixel dimensions, then then the pattern will start to repeat.

     

    Maybe you could post a screenshot incuding the layers panel.
