The only reason for changing the diameter of the brush from 400 pixels
to 280 pixels was to meet the requirement for the test. You said to
align the cursor with the circle made with the 100% hardness.
When using the clone stamp tool, I don't ever look at the pixel size. I
just set the hardness and opacity that I want and then change the cursor
size to fit the work that I am doing, by using the bracket keys. And I
can't think of any reason that I would be concerned about what
differences exist between a soft and hard brush at a particular size.
And I still do not see any overspray outside the cursor in CC.
If you find that other software works better for you, go for it.

We're not communicating and I don't know which one of us has the
problem. At some point you change the diameter of the soft brush to 280
pixels to maintain the same diameter as the 400 pixel hard brush.
I maintain that that shouldn't be necessary. A 400 pixel diameter brush
should be never be more than 400 pixels in diameter regardless of the
hardness setting. In Picture Window Pro that's what allows visually
constraining where a soft brush is allowed to paint. In PS you can't
tell from the size of the cursor where the brush is allowed to paint...
it's a crapshoot whether "overspray" will ruin something beyond the
cursor ring.
What don't I understand?

Okay, here is the test.

click on the first thumbnail and then next to step through them. I
believe that the captions tell the story. Please note that at no time
did the cloning bleed outside the cursor. If there is a setting
somewhere to make it different, I have no idea where or what it might be.
