The three steps at present are
1. Right click to place the source
2. Left click to place the target and start painting
3. Right click to gather the source back to the target cursor
and at present they have to be applied in the order 1,2,3,1,2,3.....
I wanted to be able to use 1,2,1,2,1,2..... It is especially useful if the source and target points are a long way apart because returning the source point back to its working area each time after step 3 gets tedious.
Now, though, I see that it is still necessary to use step 3 sometimes, because you cannot always move the source to a new area without taking the target cursor off screen. To use step 3 the sequence has to be 1,3,2...
I reckon that would be easy enough to use and fairly intuitive, just a bit harder to explain. I see that currently step 3 is not mentioned in the documentation anyway, so perhaps you can leave people to discover it for themselves.
