While working with the Spot Healing Brush tool, which of the following Type options in the Options bar uses pixels around the edge of the selection to find an area to use as a patch?
Correct Answer: C
Explanation/Reference:
Proximity Match uses pixels around the edge of the selection to find an area to use as a patch.
Answer option D is incorrect. Create Texture uses pixels in the selection to create a texture. If the texture does not work, try dragging through the area a second time.
Answer option A is incorrect. Aligned is used to sample pixels continuously, without losing the current sampling point, even if you release the mouse button. Deselect Aligned to continue to use the sampled pixels from the initial sampling point each time you stop and resume painting.
Answer option B is incorrect. Mode is used to specify the blending mode. Choose Replace to preserve noise, film grain, and texture at the edges of the brush stroke when using a soft-edge brush.
