  • Issue summary: When I use generative fill set to firefly 5 engine, I make a selection, but the generation appears at the very edge of the selection, as though the selection is cutting off the generation.
  • Product and version: Photoshop 27.8.0
  • Operating system: Mac
  • Steps to reproduce: 
    • Make a selection around an object or area of image
    • right click>generative fill
    • engine is set to firefly 5
    • enter “fire” into dialogue box
    • tiny flame appears at the very edge of selection, almost appears to avoid anything I’ve selected around
  • Expected result: a flame or fire within the boundaries of the selection, blending with the rest of the image
  • Actual result:
    Before generation, selected area
    after generation; background hasn’t changed, flame appearing at edge of selection and not blended with the rest of the image
