Quote:Dynamics is turned off and the brush outline is enabled but does not show with a paint tool. The brush outline does not show up and I can not get the clone tool to work.
Not even the paint tool. ? That suggests it is not really a clone tool issue. Which brush are you using ?
Quote:I tried the clone tool on another image and it worked (jpg) but when I tried it again on my background image (jpg or png) it doesnt work. I did notice that with the other image it mentioned about converting it to RGB but with the larger image it didnt ask that. I did check and the image is RGB.
Worked with one image but not the other ? Converting to RGB is usually from one RGB profile to the internal Gimp sRBG profile. That should not make any difference to cloning.
Have you tried, Edit -> Preferences -> Tool Options then Reset Saved Tool Options to Default Values OK then restart Gimp and try again. Otherwise I do not know.
