Edits don't seem to 'stick'

After generating an image, I've gone to 'Edit' then made some edits (like 'Remove' which I 'Keep'), but when I go back to my generated content, it's now there. Why not? Don't see a 'Save' button or anything like that

Hello @Powertraining,

Thank you for your message. 

Generative Fill does not save any edited images back into Creative Cloud or modify a Firefly generated image (if that was the source for Generative Fill). The only saving option is to download the file to your computer or mobile device. If you do not download it, the edits will be lost.


My best,

Hey @Powertraining 

 

Have you tried closing the tab and reopening a new project?
Cheers

Hey Nate

 

Yes – I was able to download the edited image [attached] and open and edit in Express, but that only had a 'Remove' option, not Generative Expand.

 

Thanks,

Paul

Hey @Powertraining 

 

That should not be happening. The Adobe team will have to look into this. 
Are you able to download the image after you generate the image? If so, you could make the edits in Adobe Express.

 

Cheers

Hey @Oh.N8 – Thanks.

 

I'm using Firefly Generative Fill (Remove & Expand). I'm able to download the edited image, but I guess I'm expecting the modified image to be 'saved' when I go 'Back' to my other generated images [highlighted button in screenshot]

Hey @Powertraining 


Welcome to the community.

could you provide a screenshot? Are you using Adobe Boards or Firefly Generative fill?

Cheers

Nate
