What to expect

How this tool works in practice

Object removal creates a plausible reconstruction from nearby visual context; it cannot reveal the exact scene hidden behind an object. Large selections, repeated textures and complex reflections may need another attempt.

Clean up distractions within a photo

Object removal suits small distractions such as a stray item on a table or an unwanted object behind a portrait. Unlike background removal, it keeps the surrounding scene and fills the area you mark. Choose the smallest useful selection that covers the complete distraction rather than painting over unrelated details.

Check the transition into the original scene

Include an unwanted object’s shadow when it would otherwise remain visible. After processing, inspect straight lines, repeating patterns and nearby edges for mismatches. A large obstruction may require more reconstruction than the surrounding image can support; the generated fill is a plausible scene, not recovered evidence.
