P: Generative Remove Feedback (Lr Classic & Lr Eco)

@kenneth_4368: "This update doesn't remove any objects even small ones."

After clicking Remove, check that the Opacity Slider is at 100:

For some people, the update sets it to something less than 100.

With your screenshot, Remove immediately removed the tire:

Things to check:

1. If you had previously cropped the photo, then undo the crop, do Remove, then crop again. Remove looks at all the pixels in a photo, including those that are cropped out, and it's generating replacements that match those unselected cropped-out pixels. Adobe wants you to remove first, then crop (which doesn't match many people's natural workflow). 

2. You might have to select more of the shadow cast by the tire. Otherwise, Generative AI can create replacements that also cast the shadow.

Most complaints about Remove are addressed in the article. But if it doesn't help, please attach a full-resolution JPEG exported from the unmodified original photo (not a screenshot), so we and Adobe can see the issue in detail. 

@lalocurapura: "I am trying to remove a child from the corner of a picture I took of my two kids, but the generative remove always puts me another child there, in all versions"

1. Is the photo cropped?  If so, uncrop it, do the Remove, and then re-apply the Crop.  Remove tries to match the cropped-out pixels.

2. Make sure you select all bits of the child, even small ones that might be disconnected from the main part of the child (e.g. a hand around the shoulder).  And select any shadows cast by the child.

But if it doesn't help, please attach a full-resolution JPEG exported from the unmodified original photo (not a screenshot), so we and Adobe can see the issue in detail. With nearly everyone who has posted a problem photo, we've been able to show how to quickly remove the desired objects.

@RobHoglund: "I tried to remove the "orange" cord above the bench in both mobile and desktop versions, but it just doesn't do anything. Even the variations produce no results."

With your attached exported image, I was able to quickly remove the orange cord with four different applications of Remove (see below).

The image's metadata indicates that you cropped the image along the top. So when you applied Remove to the top segment of the cord, Remove was trying to match the unselected, cropped-out pixels of the cord.  Adobe wants you to remove first, then crop, which doesn't match many people's natural workflow.

@PEDRO27774332mxxh: "the object is not completely deleted, the object is blurred but does not disappear."

First things to check:

1. After clicking Remove, make sure the Opacity slider is 100. 

2. Are you applying Remove on top of an AI mask, e.g. a Sky mask?  If so, recompute the AI mask by doing the menu command Settings > Update AI Settings.

@David_Latini1083, "I tried to remove a power line pole and the replacement was a white looking pole. "

There are likely a couple easy ways to remedy that: Uncheck Detect Objects, make sure any shadows and reflects are selected. If that doesn't help, please attach a full-resolution JPEG exported from the unmodified original photo (not a screenshot), so we and Adobe can see the issue in detail.

@lex_9408: "The area of the brushed area is larger but object removal is not accurate anymore especially in complex photo's.  Too much has been removed"

I think that in many cases, using Detect Objects makes the selection too big. In those cases, I usually get much better results unchecked it.
