Clone tool seems to ignore Fix Source Position

As far as I can tell, Cloning with Fix Source Position checked doesn't "lock" the source pixels. Either checked or not, the source pixels move with the brush/target.

I might be getting a little confused here about what you're looking for, but Fix Source Position means that, after finishing a brushstroke, the next brushstroke starts from the same, original position — i.e. the source is fixed to one spot. If you turn that option off, the source position moves to align your subsequent brushstrokes, making it easier to clone continuous areas with multiple brushstrokes.

Yes, that's my understanding of how Fix Source Position is supposed to work. For me, though, with that option selected, the source still moves around with the brush, and does not stay fixed the way the option should work.

Ah, that's weird then, I just checked this and it does work for me — could you email us at support@pixelmator.com? We'll take it from there.

How do you turn on (and off) "Fix Source Position" on the clone stamp? It will only let me pick one source and it stays on the original source and I can't pick a new original source.

I have the same problem. I have "Fixed Source Position" checked but the position still moves when I move the brush.
How do we fix it?

Would you maybe be able to share a screen recording of this issue with us? This isn't a known bug but with a screen recording, it would be easier to tell what's going on. Feel free to share it here or you can email it to us at support@pixelmator.com!
