I'm making a digital design which starts with an AI vector that is then painted in Corel Essentials 5, saved, and finally, re-opened in Photoshop to clean up. I'm trying to fill in white areas along the vector outline with the healing brush tool, but it keeps leaving a black outline. It's almost as if the healing brush is picking up the original black vector line, but I'm not working on the original vector line layer - the original vector layer is turned off as well as above the layer I'm trying to correct (I tried deleting it too, but it didn't help). I usually set the Healing Brush Mode to Replace and Sample to Current Layer, but after encountering this problem, I've tried every configuration to no avail. Any suggestions?
Are you healing to a new empty top ayer? If not you should try using that method so your healing will not destroy you original layers.

Thank you! I was able to accomplish the task as you suggested. Just wondering though - why was I getting the black outline?

I have no idea of what your document structure looks like or how you were healing.
