Features
Inpaint focuses on photo editing via simplified semi-automatic tools and mechanisms. The program includes a tool similar to the Healing Brush tool in Adobe Photoshop CS5 with the Content-Aware mode on. Similar to Healing Brush, the tool tries to replace bad or damaged texture with good texture from another area to create a seamless repair of an image.
Specifically, Inpaint is capable of performing the following functions:
- Removal of unwanted objects from an image
- Facial retouching
- Old photos repair
- Arbitrary merging of multiple images into one
- Object cloning
- Restoring empty areas on panorama photos
Batch processing of multiple images is possible via the Batch Inpaint version.
It also contains online tutorials.
