xCloner v1.3 is a massive new update, introducing two powerful new modes:Path Cloning and Object Cloning!
Path Cloning
With Path mode, draw or paste any number of masks and clone directly along their paths. Path cloning lets you distribute clones in three different ways; Count, Distance and Vertex. You can choose to clone on individual masks or all masks combined, loop clones along paths, set clone rotation to follow path direction, randomize and offset transformations and much more!
Object Cloning
Object Mode lets you clone based on any source layer’s alpha or luma channels. Fine-tune with resolution, threshold, and other advanced controls to achieve exactly the look you want.
5 Cloning Modes
Linear Mode
Radial Mode
Grid Mode
Path Mode
Object Mode
Intuitive UI
A modern, easy-to-understand, and logically structured Userr interface.
Built for performance
xCloner is fast. Cloning a few thousand clones in any mode, isn’t an issue for this plugin. This simply isn’t possible with standard layer duplication.
