: Tool to "write" within the pointer what lies around it (in order to mask things) There's a tool I believe that is used to erase particular elements in an image, where the pointer writes what

@Dunderdale640

It sounds you like you want to use the clone stamp tool (S). I would check out the Adobe help files - Photoshop Help /
Retouch and repair photos

You can find this tool by pressing S.

Hold the Alt key and press the location you would like to copy from. You will have a brush tool that you can now start painting a copy from where you targeted.

You can also change the brush settings of the clone stamp tool by opening the brush panel.

There is also the spot healing brush tool (J). This is just clicking over an area and copies from local spots. You have different options for how it copies (Content-Aware, Create Texture & Proximity Match).
