Clone rectangle

The Clone rectangle tool allows you to "clone" and magnify an area of the image. Play the video to visualize both the magnified area and the performance in its whole (picture-in-picture effect).
 
 

To use this tool, proceed as follows:

1.Select the Clone Rectangle drawing tool  

 

2.Click, hold and move the mouse cursor to draw a rectangle around the area you want to clone.  

3.Click and drag the cloned area to the location you want  

4.Use the white handles to magnify the cloned area  

5.Click anywhere in the image (except the drawing itself) to deselect the cloned area.  

For best result, use a tripod and leave the camera fixed (no zoom, pan or tilt). If the camera moves, you can still use this effect but in conjunction with the automatic tracking function (see Tracking objects automatically).
