In the left toolbar, you'll find traditional elements: a brush, a cloning stamp, a lasso, a point-repair brush, an eraser, a pipette, a framing, and so on. The layers are positioned on the right along with the brightness, contrast, and saturation tools. New gradients, swatches, and patterns also bring more opportunities and creative ideas.
