Clone Stamp Tool Keyboard Shortcuts to Nudge, Scale or Rotate Sample Source
When using the Clone Stamp tool, you can use keyboard shortcuts to nudge, scale, or rotate the sample source to better match the size and orientation of the cloning destination.
First, set the sample point by holding Alt (Mac: Option) and clicking on an area to sample from. You will then see an overlay of your sample source.
Hold Alt (Mac: Option) Shift and tap on the Arrow keys (left, right, up and down) to nudge the Clone Source.
Hold Alt (Mac: Option) Shift < or > to rotate the Clone Source.
Hold Alt (Mac: Option) Shift { or } to scale the Clone Source.
You can also use the Clone Source panel (Window > Clone Source) to make these changes to the sample source in case you forget the keyboard shortcuts.
