Infill/Fill with surrounding color - a-lobsterman - 10-29-2021
[attachment=6929]Working with a TIFF file of aerial orthoimagery from the State of Maine. Because the passes I'm using were only for land-forms (tide levels) portions of the imagery were omitted. The attachment shows a white space in the aerial runs which I would like to try to fill to more or less match the surrounding color/patters. Been struggling with the Fill with Pattern but perhaps this is not the right tool? Pointers to examples or tutorials very welcome.

Sometimes I make a free select and then move the selection and copy the better image and paste it back to where I want it. Then use clone and heal tools to blend it in. I spent a little time on this but it would need a lot more work I am sure there is a better way.

@ a-lobsterman That is a screenshot, does that mean you have a larger image, the tiff ?
Not knowing what it actually looks like makes it an artistic interpretation for me. You might have a better idea from other images.
Rather than the clone tool, using the warp tool to push the texture in. Finish off with resynthesizer / heal transparency . see https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Plug-in-Resynthesizer-not-Found-Big-Sur?pid=26252#pid26252 for MacOS info.
This in 40 seconds, obviously needs more time and consideration. https://i.imgur.com/OQVTvvh.mp4

Yes, it's a screenshot and I do have the original TIFF file. Thanks for the pointers.
